Tezuka Chess

Saw this interesting piece of Tezuka Merchandise today on Helen McCarthy's Blog. It's a Tezuka Themed Chess Set!


Osamu Tezuka's famous characters take the place of the different chess pieces. Clearly some thought went into the character selection here.


I did a little digging and discovered that not only is this set available internationally, it's quite reasonably priced at under $40 US. See for yourself at Gifts Bazaar. This would certainly make a great holiday present for the chess playing anime fan in your life!
