Now instead of dispensing drinks, food or toys, this particular vending machine will instead dispense handkerchiefs featuring traditional Japanese Kabuki prints. There will be six different possible prints that one can get from the machine, and unsurprisingly each handkerchief will be sealed in capsules within the machine which will dispense them at 300 Yen each (~$3).
