Photo of the Day: Domo-kun Loves Candy Corn

Photograph from Mightyohm on Flickr
It appears that Japanese TV mascot Domo-kun is pro candy corn! Look as he so joyously flings unsuspecting candies into his gaping mouth! That mountain of candy corn doesn't stand a chance. See more of Domo-kun's candy corn love, after the jump.

He either ate too much or is just taking a breather in between candy corn gorging.
Domo-kun is Target's mascot for this Halloween season. I wonder what they'll do with the display after tomorrow is over. Because I would love to steal have one and hang it on my wall.

Cuute~!
I prefer Smarties over Candy Corn though... It's still going to be my desktop picture tomorrow.

@robyn, I totally thought the same thing when I first saw all the Domo-kun decorations at Target! The one near me has a giant stuffed Domo hanging from the ceiling near the cash registers, along with plenty of paper Domo decorations. I just don't have the nerve to actually ask anyone at Target whether I can have any of them once Halloween is over...

@Allison: I haven't been to Target in like..a year..or more. :( No Domo-kun for me!
@frecklesfreeze: I want this to be my new desktop picture!
@absentmindedprof: Now's a good time to befriend a Target employee.
@GingerSnap: BUT HE'S SO CUTE!!! YOU CANNOT RESIST?!

Only two mellowcreme pumpkins left...so he must have eaten those first.
I'd buy my annual bag of mellowcreme pumpkins in the after Halloween clearance selloff. Which apparently is the new Black Friday.

Seriously...I saw the giant Domo hanging from the ceiling and wanted to rip it down and take it home from Tarzhay.
I dislike brown but I like this turdy lil guy.

Yeah, the displays are GINORMOUS, too! What's funny is I'd forgotten the character's name, and my boyfriend told me it was something like "Fark," so we ran around Target, yelling "FARK!" I'm a little horrified now . . .
