Rika-chan Expecting

Japanese get two for one with pregnant “Barbie”
Delivery of the baby – literally – comes some two weeks later, after the buyer mails a postcard to the toymaker and receives the baby in reply, along with a special key that deflates the doll’s belly to pre-pregnancy proportions.
Rika-chan is the Japanese Barbie. No word on who the father is.

yes, I hear you - I’m awaiting delivery of mine. Work in an Apple retail store and they are just SO SO cool. I had to have one!

Lucky you on both counts! Waiting for your iPod and working in an Apple store. I’d love to do that. (I can talk about Macs all day and they’re probably the only thing I’d be any good at selling.)
