You can be sporting a seriously kick-ass samurai-umbrella. What does that mean exactly? Well see the pictures, it has the hilt, a sheath and protects you from the evils of the unpredictability of Australian weather!
This is all to celebrate the seriously epic martial arts flick Reign of Assassins, as produced by John Woo and starring Michelle Yeoh, synopsis is as follows...
"In Ancient China, "Drizzle" is the most deadly and ruthless assassin of the Dark Stone gang. After a life of theft and murder, she seeks to atone for her ways and leave the gang forever. Undergoing a drastic procedure to alter her appearance, she changes her name to Jing and starts a new life in the capital. Even with her new-found life as a shopkeeper and a budding romance to Ah-Sheng, the Dark Stone gang is hot on her trail. She alone holds the secret of the mystical Buddhist monk's remains, which legend says the possessor will gain control of the whole world. The gang will stop at nothing in their pursuit to control this power."

Drizzle on my sword
Blood flowing from enemies
Life washing away
Attacked by evil
No fear with my sword
Sh**, this is an umbrella
Swift cut through the rain
Katana handle, tight grip
My blade is a shield
bright sun glints off blade
now cold rain cleans blood away
sword fight in Melbourne
raindrops bead on steel
blood and water swirl at feet
winter for us all
Want cool umbrella
Where am I a resident?
Aw shucks it is Europe
Girl, Boy in the storm
Hearts heavier than the rain
Love like morning dew
The rain falls, falls, falls.
Katana slices; silent.
Your blood drip, drip, drips.
fiercely screaming clean
delightful rain smiting blade
yearning, rippling 'brella
The competition is over!
