The Disney characters sealed the deal for me. I've got to have this, how much is it I wonder?

Something is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

A Mickey Mouse three-tier merry-go-round made out of gold that claims to be a Christmas tree?
Something is askew in Ginza.

So? Disney wasn't!

It's made in Japan.

You expecting it to go lower?
At the current yen rate it's priced at a little over $4.2 million (US). If the yen rate goes to $1.00 to 100Yen the price drops dramatically to $3.5 Million.

Oh, yes! It looks so much like a tree, doesn't it? NOT! And, what is the connection with Disney?

actually a good investment if you got the cash, would be easier in a brick form though

Ginza Tanaka have all sorts of guiant stuff made of gold. Seems like an invitation to some foreign criminal too good to miss.

That doesn't look like a Christmas tree... it looks like a tier cake.

Looks more a Disney cake then a X'mas tree!

A little too flashy for me, I will stick to the traditional X-MAS tree.

Because the economy in Japan is just so bad.
