" The pictures above are part of a similar promotion for video game for the Sega Dreamcast game system in Japan. "Seaman" is a virtual-pet type game in which you raise the smart-mouthed fish with a human face from hatching through adulthood. Sega's ad campaign featured displays of fabricated Seaman skeletons and fossils in museums and stores, a book and web sites to develop an elaborate back story for the salty man-fish.
