Awesome pics there!
Will these have been directly exported to the Japan authorities by US 3M, or will they have been distributed by 3M in Japan?

I am never going to get used to those flat panel LED signals. Hopefully they don't come to the US!

Cool pics!
If flat LED signals like that come to the US and replace standard signals in masse (Especially if they have such a reduced visor like that one), that just may kill my interest in modern signals.
I'll bet that day is coming though since most LED's don't nearly take up as much space in the housing as the reflector assemblies did, of course when a lot of modern 12" signals were designed, incandescent bulbs and lenses were the standard and the housings were designed for such an assembly (obviously). Now that incandescent assemblies are becoming less and less common in new installations, I'll bet we'll see more flat signals here in the US within the next 10 years.
Thoughts?
