Start dieting, girls: D3 ships out Onechanbara costumes to promote the game photo
     D3

I've seen some bizarre swag in my day (the giant stuffed animal heads from Hudson to promote Kororinpa were a personal favorite), but I have to laugh at the creativity here. MTV Multiplayer got a little package from D3 to promote the release of the Onechanbara games coming up for the Wii and Xbox 360 (Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers and Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad, respectively) containing an Onechanbara bikini, hat, sword and tube of fake blood to coat the sword with and shake off accordingly.

By the way, the bikini is a small. Maybe we could coerce Jim Sterling into wearing it while performing SingSterling this Saturday. What do you think of that idea?

[Thanks, Jonathan]

He'll probably already be wearing the bikini by the time you ask him.

Please Dtoid, no contest for this game. LostCrichton will win it for sure.

And that scares me.

Do not send one to Asian Joe - the internets can't handle it.
