More Parappa merchandise! This particular item is a nifty little orange toaster that, after years of searching, Ant finally managed to find on eBay a few days ago. It cost a lot. (Ant, of course, is always buying odd things like this -- his ultimate goal is to own a complete set of weirdly unique appliances and household gadgets. I wrote about this desire of his in some detail in my review of his Parappa alarm clock).





The toaster is cool, I think you'll agree, simply by virtue of it being a Parappa toaster (really, how often do video game characters get their own toasters?), but that's not the only cool thing about it: believe it or not, this thing actually burns little designs (of Parappa, Sunny, and the frog on Parappa's cap) into your toast. (I haven't actually tried to make any toast with it, mainly because it's still in pristine condition and I'd rather not get it all messy without Ant's permission, but I have little doubt it works the way it's supposed to).





The box the toaster comes in, meanwhile, is full of fun Greenblatish stuff: I particularly like the emblem that declares Parappa to be "the king of toast." Ha!
