    Pfft, This Nikon SLR Is Way Too Small to Use!

    In Japan, Gilco candy is sort of like our Cracker Jack, including a small toy in each box. But unlike Crack Jack, Gilco's toys don't totally blow.

    Discovered in Gilco boxes back in 2002, this Nikon F is a somewhat remarkable mini SLR replica, going so far as to acknowledge the two different body finishes and truly interchangeable lenses. Even though this Nikon F is completely non-functional, I like to imagine squinting through its minuscule viewfinder while delicately tweaking the focus ring. Then I like to imagine dropping the camera, accidentally stepping on it and chastising myself for investing in impractical photography equipment, again. [Glico Nikon F Miniature via Neatorama]
