Little would you know this but perhaps the largest Disney fans of the world reside in Japan, children and adults. So much so that this country has a special and orignal Disney theme park based next to the sea called Disney Sea. This one is a different venture from the Disneyland in Tokyo that folks just love visiting too. Well, with the involvement of die-hard grown up fans, you can expect a lot of innovation (and we mean big bucks) in the merchandise sector. For instance, a jewelry store in Osaka that goes by the name of Tanaka Kikinzoku has made a beautiful Snow White in pure gold. Accompanying her are the seven dwarfs who also enjoy being cast in the gorgeous yellow metal.

No wonder, this store is gaining a lot of mileage. It is believed that this little Disney team has a total estimated worth of $335,000. That said, it is not for sale. The makers believe that their favorite Disney Princess and her ‘kawaii’ seven friends are priceless.
