Post kanji for Cyclomagnon
i started a generic ask for kanji thread, but thought afterwards that it wasn't a good idea, so i will stick to asking one at a time.

anyway, anyone know the kanji for the cyclomagnon (or is it cyclomanion?)

also, does Real Head have a janji name, or is it just referred to as the english Real Head in japan as well?

I dunno about the cyclo (don't have one/never seen the header)

but real head is 真頭玩具
the first 2 letters are shin-tou(real-head), last 2 are gan-gu (which means toys)

I'm pretty sure cyclo is just katakana. I think I remember seeing the header once.

the text is spelled out in the phonetic Katakana character set that's usually used to indicate that the word is of foreign origin... so the text I showed isn't Kanji. Kanji is a non-phonetic, pictographic based character set.

That IS correct.
But I never was quite sure what the gangu kanji meant. Always read it as omuchaya which is the same thing.

I've learned something today :mrgreen:
