Frank,
Thanks for the other eBay sites. If you use IE, you can go to the windows
update site & download Japanese Language Support. Then your browser shows
the characters. Quite useful for anyone into Mecha or other Japanese toys.
BTW, you're off a digit on the price; it's over 1 million yen (1,254,489).

Current bid according to cgi.ebay.com is: DM 22,222.00 (approx. $10,196.19) This is a useful hint, if you ever see a link to a non-US eBay auction, just replace the host with cgi.ebay.com in the URL, and you will get to see the dollar (...)
