Talk about mis information. The Rising Sun flag is NOT a "Japanese Nazi" symbol. It is their county's national flag. Exactly the same thing as our stars and stripes. It is like other countries calling our flag a "nazi" flag. It was and is NOT a "WAR FLAG" as you are calling it. It is just the flag of the country of Japan....nothing more nothing less, it was not used specifically for war, it is still their current flag, check the olympics if you dont beleive me. Crazy talk....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Japan
So... are you saying that rising sun they are using now is "A well-known variant of the sun disc design is the sun disc with 16 red rays, which was alsohistorically used by Japan's military, particularly the Imperial JapaneseNavy" which happened to be the one used by the japanese army in wwii?
with your logic, nazi flag is just a flag of a political party that just happened to be used by german troops in wwii

How boring... they took the coolest asthetic feature of the 12 - the different colored "wedge" upper pieces on the lateral and medial sides - andwhited them out.
But then I've never seen the appeal of white/white and black/black shoes, especially when its a model designed for asthetic recognition...
Needless to say, I have ZERO interest in these...

Comparing the Japanese army to the Nazis of Germany is minimum at best. The rising sun flag is admittedly a "variation" of thecountry's flag. the Nazi's SYMBOL..the Swastika was used specifically and ONLY for their army. The German national flag looks nothing like it. Hitler, basically STOLE the swastika and made it a symbol of evil. The swastika is an ancient buddhist symbol that has nothing to do with killing jewishpeople but Hitler adopted it. I do not agree that the Japanese miltary's rising sun flag is the same as the Nazi swastika.Originally Posted by brokeassChrisk
