Kotaku’s posted the winner of the LittleBigPlanet Japanese competition to design a Sackboy.
Apparently the winning entry (above image) turned up on the Japanese PSN earlier today, and, as the article points out, everything on there makes its way West; so we’ll be seeing it in the near future.
Bit more through the link. Who said it was a slow news day, eh?
Update: As it happens, the latest PSN update includes the “Kabuki Actor” Sackboy costume free of charge. It’s been a long week. Thanks, Heitzu.

That it is. Both Geisha and Kabuki in Japanese culture wear clothing and make-up similar to that.
