Japan's SolidAlliance (http://www.engadget.com/tag/solidalliance) earned a warm place in our collective nerd bosom long ago for the sheer lunacy of the products it creates. Today it's offering round two of its Crazy Earphone (http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/solid-alliances-new-earbuds-are-crazy-ugly/) collection that includes some kind of mushroom (that is a mushroom, right?), the ol' Katana blade or arrow through the head trick, and a parasitical, conjoined ear if you want everyone to think you've been subjected to a tragic cloning experiment. Spec-wise your ¥2,000 (about $22) will take home a pair of in-ear buds with 20 ~ 20,000Hz frequency range assisted by a 10-mm driver. Not that it matters: there's no chance in hell that you're buying these for performance reasons.Gallery: SolidAlliance's Crazy Earphones are wild and crazy in Japan (http://www.engadget.com/photos/solidalliances-crazy-earphones-are-wild-and-crazy-in-japan/)
