united Kup backing card has a cigar?

I just got my United Kup yesterday and anyone notice on the back of the card the Kup they used had a cigar??? interesting!

Yeah... bloody tease. Takara probably had designed with cigar- but after being hasbro neutered...

Post a picture, I'm interested to see this.

Judging by the amount of 10 to 13 year olds that are getting around the Illawarra smoking - I don't think Hasbro have anything to worry about. :rolleyes::p

Still, this concept seems nonsensical to me but each to their own. ;):)

Yeah, I'd say this is the reason. :) Typical of the Japanese to even want to design a children's toy with a smoke in its mouth (Japan = smoker's paradise... though China's worse).

If you were a Hasbro exec, would you approve a toy with a ciggie in its mouth and run the risk of angry parents suing you, or would you opt to lose the ciggie and run the risk of having nerds rage about it in the internet? :p ;)

They could give him a voice-chip with a hacking old-man cough and the line "Smoking is bad, kids!":D

Oh yeah I agree Goki, mind you for alot of kids in many areas, including my own, I don't think kids playing with a 'smoking' toy would necessarily see it and want to start smoking - Because in all likelihood, they're already doing it. :o

So their against smoking but violence is cool right?:p
