I love everything Shawnimals, and hearing that a DS game was being made featuring the adorable characters was a surreal and wonderful feeling — toys and games in a harmonious matrimony? Most delightful, indeed. There’s been some really cool promotion surrounding the upcoming release of Ninjatown DS (like the Ninjatown event at Rotofugi in Chicago I wish I could have gone out to!) but this hand-painted lunchbox is probably my favorite thing I have seen so far.
Created by Shawn himself for an art show, the lunchbox is one-of-a-kind, fully painted on all sides. I might actually start bringing my lunch to the office if I had something this cool-looking to tote my eats around in! It can be purchased for $250 through the Shawnimals shop, but don’t hesitate if you want it — once it’s gone, it’s gone!
If you don’t have the greens handy for such a purchase, you can always settle for creating your own ninja for free. Sure, maybe not as cool as carrying around your own one-of-a-kind lunchbox, but still pretty cool anyway.
