Boy, I have got to get that set for my "Team America World Police" diorama I've been planning.
Thanks for sharing. Got a good laugh!

Hope Tamiya follows up with a Kim Jong "Un-welcome" figure set. So many things to do with/to him...

Kim Jong "Un-balanced"
Kim Jong "Un-bearable" ...

Such an apt name.

You could probably kitbash a 'pointing' version using the right arm from the German officer in the Tamiya artillery crew set (standing holding binoculars in left hand, pointing with right).

One hand flipping the bird and the other with a pointing finger on a giant red button!

Haha!

So far I've seen; Osama bin laden, Joseph Stalin, Vladimir Putin, Nikita Khrushchev, Fidel Castro, Winston Churchill, Muammer Qaddafi, and may be more all in scale.

But this is the first time I've seen Kim Jong-il in scale.

In view of North Korea's missile failure, we can add another "Un"...Kim Jong Un-able to get it up!

Probably a clever hoax. Couldn't find anything on line about "Tatamiya platics", but the earliest post I found with this kit dated from Christmas 2012. Mostly on Japanese only sites.
