New to arcade prizes?
Crane-game prizes are never sold in shops — they can only be won in Japanese arcades. Two ways to get them from overseas:
Option A — Play an online crane game
- Start with the online-crane button above (when shown) — that is where this prize is officially playable.
- Toreba is the most overseas-friendly service: English app, ships worldwide. Lineup varies by service, so this exact prize may or may not appear.
- Japanese services (e.g. Namco Online Crane) usually ship within Japan only — pair them with a forwarding address like tenso.com.
Option B — Buy it from the aftermarket
- After the arcade debut, listings appear on Mercari Japan.
- Buy through a proxy like Buyee — they purchase it and ship it to you (no Japanese account needed).
- Check listing photos and titles carefully; popular plushes carry a markup.
