Parents who are looking to expand their children's culinary experience in a fun and organic way may want to consider purchasing a few of these food action figures. Taking on the form of different types of sushi, the toys are inspired by the Transformers in that they can be rearranged to take on a robotic form. Hilariously entertaining for adults as much as they are for kids, the food action figure collection could also make a great gag gift over the holidays.
Forming the group Sushi Squadron Shirada, the food action figures take on the names Toromaru, Ebisu, Tamago, Beni, Saiban, Tema Kids Kappa, Tema Kids Tekka and Tema Kids Natto. All of their weapons and shields are inspired by their sushi components.
