Purchasing[edit]

Would anybody know where one might purchase this item in New York City? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.247.79.15 (talk • contribs).

You might try contacting someone from the Aizu Wakamatsu City Tourism Bureau or the Aizu Wakamatsu International Association. The dolls are light and small, so importing them should be cheap. -- BrianSmithson 00:08, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
