		<description><![CDATA[Via the ever superb Wrong Side of the Art: I find this English language market distro poster for Five Element Ninjas perplexing.

They’ll say you weren’t even a replacement as much as you were a placeholder, a mask-filler brought in while Michael Dudikoff was auditioning for soap opera guest spots. They’ll say you didn’t take over the franchise after Dudikoff foiled the evil Super Ninja eugenics program in [...]]]></description>

BUT&#8230; what the hell? Now trade ads are always talking shit. They run in [...]]]></description>

It is rare as hell now and sells for unreasonable prices on the seldom occasions it does surface on evil-Bay. I got mine relatively cheap due to the [...]]]></description>
