How cool are these vinyl toys by Kaiju Taro based on Chickens!!! There are two versions, the Uno Dos Tres and the Utimo, with the Ultiimo being the highlight of the 2 for me. How often do you see a Chicken mutant dressed as a Mexican Wrestler. Both figures are coming out soon and are limited to 20 for the Uno Dos Tres and 30 for the Ultimo [via Toyboy Studios]

Origami (see the wiki explanation) is quite an amazing form of paper craft with some even more amazing results. Origami is seen as a retro Japanese art form but it still going strong in the present day and this list of Badass origami stuff shows some stunning origami work from artists such as Robert J. Lang, Jason Ku and Brian Chan.

Japanese TV is well known for being very strange at times which means you are always guaranteed to have a laugh. This strange game show involved a man dressed all in black with black face paint acting out a level of breakout with the bricks replaced by Marshmallows and using his mouth to break the bricks. Pointless yet amusing. [via The Last Boss]

Japanese art is one of the favourite styles of art. Just by looking at certain art you can see the difference in the Eastern and Western style. The Match World Virtual Museum has a gallery along with a lot information about Matches and the boxes. The mini pieces of art on the match boxes is stunning and shows how great the Eastern art culture is. [via Cardboard Monocle]
