Astro Bra?!?

Here, I found an article that describes the bra:

"The press release makes bizarre reading.

EXTRACT FROM PRESS RELEASE: The bra is a dual structure bra with an inner and outer cup in the shape of Astroboy’s head. In order to make a metallic image like a robot, the outer cup surface used a glossy enamel material. To create the face, a special hologram print was used to render Astroboy in 3D.

If the outer cups are removed, a red heart, which represents the warm heart of Astroboy, on the left cup will light up. On the right cup is printed the circuit diagram of Astroboy’s head and the pupil will blink at random in green & red.

On the strap and the side part, the energy pouring code required for Astroboy's birth is represented. Additionally, a counter is attached to the bottom of the [inaudible] skirt. The counter, which blinks red, enlivens the atmosphere of countdown of waiting eagerly for the birthday of Astroboy.

MARK SIMKIN: The press release doesn’t say what happens when the counter reaches zero. Presumably, the bra isn’t booby-trapped. So why has a 52-yearold child robot created such excitement? Commuters on Takadanobaba station believe Astroboy's message is as relevant as ever.

VOX POP 1 [translated]: Astroboy appeals for the coexistence of human beings and machines. It is sending an important message to the entire world. The robot industry will continue to advance, so this issue is as important as ever.

VOX POP 2 [translated]: He is just so cute. He appeals to everybody’s heart. I have read that originally, Astroboy was conceived as a girl, but became a boy because it was a boy’s magazine. In that sense, it’s sexual. He or she is sexy.

This is Mark Simkin in Tokyo for The World Today.

ELEANOR HALL: My dear, it sounds like that woman will be buying the bra."

For those who don't know, Tezuka's Metropolis manga had a shapeshifting character named Michi:

According to his afterword, Tezuka based Astro off her, maybe even intended her as a main character.
Also, at the TezukaWorld site, it says Michi was turned into an adult and made Astro's mother in the manga!
