$23,000 Wooden Japanese Sculptures

Collectors of all kinds are known the world over for spending exorbitant amounts of money on objects that get the majority of their worth from the sentimental value they hold with their owners. Japanese folklore is no exception, and a company in Japan is hoping to cash in on some collector love by offering hand-carved wooden sculptures of the famous mythical monsters Godzilla, Mothra, and King Ghidorah. The creations are each extremely detailed and impressive, as well as quite pricey. The smaller Godzilla and Mothra versions are priced at $3,000 each, but the real star of the show is the three-headed King Ghidorah -- he stands 8 1/2 feet tall and costs a cool $23,000.
Could make for an interesting statement in your entryway, perhaps? (ha!)

Okay, so it's sorta art, but it's not bluechip and it's not luxury. I'm so tired of all these half-baked luxury postings. It's like pornography, I know it when I see it, and this is not it. Please raise your standards.
