I found this months back of Astro with his brother and sister.

It was from this full picture on a site I passed by ages ago.

I just wondered if it's fanart or from some video. :eek:

That's the weirdest ad I could ever see for an ETC card... "SAD KIDS. DEAD ANIMALS. ASTRO GOT A VALENTINE. CORN. BIRDS FLYING SOUTH. Buy our card."

Now, ETC cards are prepaid and reloadable tollbooth cards, so if you're in Japan and hit a booth, you just give them the card instead of digging through change. I'm wondering if proceeds from each Atom card go to a charity...

I highly doubt if thats an ad in the first place. The other pics could be fanart.

The card, however, if you look closely under it it reads "copyright Tezuka Productions. All rights reserved". That proves that it is official (unless the whole thing is some kind of joke), but still...weird... :eek:

I think Fauna had the right idea, almost. Seems like it's showing orphans and famine, then Astro Boy's optimistic future gets into the picture and you get good harvest and healthy fauna (oh the pun it hurts). Fix the world with your money!
