Looks like the 747 theme bento boxes are selling really well and have exceeded their initial sales target ^ And now I know why there are 4 pieces of sushi roll in the bento too
Too bad I completely forgot about the bento when I was there last Dec. Too focus on the other 747 items I guess. I would have bought both just for the stickers
