I recall seeing one in a card shop in the San Francisco area too. The store in Belmont has a few too I think. <br /><br />There are card vending machines here in Japan too (of course). The ones I've seen have been stocked with game cards though. I got a couple packs of a baseball game from one (I say packs but they were different than the pack style you'd find on a shelf). Some of the card vending machines dispense large sized cards but these have all been anime related so far.Ryan Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12670458381967699663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3527071162164319087.post-84297598297902076622012-02-06T12:31:22.099-05:002012-02-06T12:31:22.099-05:00What a blast from the past.

For some reason, I associate 1986 Topps baseball cards with these machines.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3527071162164319087.post-38127312834162434862012-02-05T23:53:21.839-05:002012-02-05T23:53:21.839-05:00Ha!
