Update: September 17, 2007 «©NCSX» American citizens have a favorite fruit over all others. It's not the apple nor the orange as one might suspect. It's the banana and the average American gobbles up 28 lbs of of the yellow fruit per annum. Maybe it's the delicious flavor or the fact that bananas mesh well with ice cream that keeps it at the top of the charts. Bananas are also a favorite in Japan and pretty much everywhere else in the world. Tangent time: humans have a tendency to humanize objects, animals, and other living things. For example, a distinctive rock might be said to possess human-like "facial" features and Woofy the 10 year old dog might be described as being like gramps - slobbery and occasionally incontinent. Add one more human attribution victim to the list - Elite Banana which is a sentient piece of fruit with anthropomorphic facial features who enjoys the good life. Elite Banana products sell well in Japan but are unknown in pretty much the rest of the world. NCS stocked the Elite Banana Motion Plush last week and today, we import the Elite Banana Air Bubble Keychain which features a banana encased inside a plastic air bubble. Four styles are in stock today which all look alike but each one has subtle nuances that distinguish one from the other as follows (from the upper left and moving in Z formation: (A) Elite Banana with Beverage (B) Elite Banana with Clenched Teeth (C) Elite Banana with Sunglasses (D) Elite Banana with Rosy Cheeks Pricing is set at US$3.50 per keychain. If ordered alone, we will ship this item with normal airmail service at US$2.00 for an order total of $5.50. Please note that you'll still have to choose a UPS option to check out of the shop but we'll manually adjust the shipping cost to US$2.00. Thanks for reading.
