I see where he got that.....the katakana is missing the dakuten (or ten-ten) to make "ku" read "gu", so it reads Biku Booi in the auction. For some reason the seller put "Pepushi" (Pepsi) in the title, too.

Still are, in fact. Even in Harajuku and Nakano...stores solely devoted to American toys/collectibles.
