Post Interesting Japanese wood toys
Found this site today. Its a bit interesting.
Primarily Budhist alters, which are pretty rad also. Among the stuff there are some cool looking wood carved figures. Some Kubrick-esque and others remind me of Devilrobots. The Butsudan kun is awsome.

The 3 kanji pieces at the top of this page are awsome too.

It would be really cool to have a varied collection of wood toys (if I didn't collect vinyl).

Thanks for sharing!
