    So... i was rummaging through Facebook and... this popped up:

    Cat Ear Headphones By Axent Wear | Bored Panda

    And i'm like... oh cool, imagine how great they would look on a cute guy! Like, maybe i should get a pair, yeah, i'm totally getting a....wait, what... $150?!?!? Whaaaat?

    Then i started googling the technical specs and... basically they are on par with something that would usually cost in the $60~$70 price range. And i'm like... MONEYGRAB!

    Seriously though, they look way too cool! But, is design alone, enough to justify the steep price?

    Also, going out in the city with these... out of the question. I mean, if you lived in a more "modern" city, yeah, but where i live... i'd probably be thrown in the looney bin.

    Thoughts, opinions, would you buy them, would you wear them...

    Also, neko boys!!!!!!1 (★^O^★)

    Pretty awesome, but no, I wouldn't buy or use them. They aren't really my style, but they looks super cool on others!

    I've spent more than that on worse. I've wanted these since they were just a picture on deviant art.... I'm so excited they'll finally be a reality!! ^w^ I can't wait... I'mma wear them at home and to conventions, I kind of want to put together a matching outfit, so I can look like a cyber punk catgirl :3

    I'm a fan of the creator of them. She is an amazing artist on deviantART and she thought up the idea. I wouldn't wear them in public where there are random people, but I'd use them at school, with friends, or other places where there are people I know. I want a pair, but they are pretty expensive.

    I've been supporting the Axent Wear headphones since before the kickstarter, because I follow the artists comics. If you haven't checked out her stuff and you enjoy reading manga's then definitely check her out on tapastic.com. She goes by Yuumei and her current projects are Knite (already bought it) and Fisheye Placebo (can't wait for it to get printed so I can buy it). She is an amazing artist as Tai said. :slight_smile:.
