Thank you for viewing. This is a Japanese-language Magic 8-Ball that was distributed during the Showa era. While the overseas version is still seen today, the Japanese version is rarely found, making it a rare collector's item. This item is known for appearing in the Disney/Pixar movie "Toy Story" series and is a popular item worldwide. The fortune-telling words appear when the flat surface is facing up. There are many types of messages included, making it enjoyable just to look at. It has a Showa retro atmosphere and has a presence as an interior decoration or a collection piece. As a result of inspection, no fatal damage or significant cracks or chips were found. However, due to the long passage of time since its manufacture, there are some scratches and signs of use on the outer box due to aging. Please check the images for the condition. This is a used item that has been stored in a private home for a long time. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a current product or a perfect item. Recommended for those who understand retro and vintage items. We will carefully pack and ship it. This is a rare item that is likely to become more difficult to obtain in the future. Please consider this opportunity. Thank you. #ShowaRetro #Magic8Ball #Original #Vintage #JapaneseVersion #Rare #RetroGoods #FortuneTelling #ForCollectors #ToyStory #MagicEightBall #MysticBall #Antique #Antiques
