Brian Posted Friday at 10:35 AM Report Posted Friday at 10:35 AM Friend sent me these pics, they were sent to him by someone else. Not of interest to me, and I don't even know if it's Japanese. But I said I would ask and see if anyone knows exactly what this is? Thanks in advance. I am sure someone here will know. Quote
