Figma Santa Cosplay sets

Folks buying figmas in Japan may get lucky and get one of these santa sets included.
The set is comprised of a cape and hat which comes in a little bag. There are two types of hat but you cant choose.

Look for the "Merry Christmas with figma" sticker on the box and I think they will hand you your santa set at the counter.
Update: more pics at Mikatan blog.
