SKI 15 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Was it a panchinko place perhaps? There seem to be a few round there, most famous perhaps the big one at Madarao. Someone posted a photo of that here recently. Very tasteful! Link to post Share on other sites

iiyamadude 6 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I think the statue originated in Iiyama and was exported by the Amerikuns. That's why you see a few here. Link to post Share on other sites
