Studio Ghibli Zippo Lighters


Okay, wait...what?  Studio Ghibli Zippo lighters.  Huh.  I honestly did not see that one coming.  It does get points for style, I'll give it that.  But sometimes I don't think Studio Ghibli quite groks the whole concept of "merchandising."

Then again, Hayao Miyazaki is the same person responsible for this little gem of '70s pop culture.  God bless you, sir!
