Huh. So I found myself on TV-kun's website. There's a big ol block of text under the Ikkyu Eyecon section. If what google translate is telling me is true, firstly, Ikkyu is a building kit of some sort. Itself not a big deal. Not really a deal at all. But then, if google is correct about this from what I can make out of the garbled result, the button on Ikkyu doesn't do anything. It's not used for the changing of patterns. Instead the iris is a single lenticular image that switches between the blank, numbering and face modes depending on the angle at which you look at it.

And you know, looking at their official pictures closely I can definitely see it. There's this little bit of plastic sticking out of the bottom of the sclera. There appear to be no screws on the corners. And the picture on the iris seems a bit grainy/pixelly...like it would on a lenticular image. Probably most importantly, you can definitely see the 一 kanji overlaid on the face pattern. And in the smaller pictures of it in the 一 mode, you can still sort of make out the question mark design.

So that...appears to be what the deal with Ikkyu is. I guess my eyes could be playing tricks on me or something but...it looks like it.

Man. I don't even know if I want it anymore? I want all the Eyecons and all but this one is just too weird. I just...don't know.
