First time I've seen this in a vending machine in Japan:
I wonder if they will offer a warm version for the cooler months?

Vending Machines
In Japan it seems you can buy almost anything from a vending machine. Here are some of the more unusual ones I've come across on my travels.
(Note to people arriving from search engines: I have never come across a "used panty vending machine", and the word on the street is that if they weren't just an urban legend, they were a passing fad of the late 80s / early 90s which now live on only in the voyeuristic ambitions of foreign media. The closest I can offer you is this new panty vending machine with what appears to be male and female "erotic" underwear.)
In Japan you're never far from a nice cuppa. Just head over to the nearest vending machine and grab a can of Royal Milk Tea for 120 yen. It comes pre-heated and contains 23% milk.
On second thoughts, don't. It tastes like - and in fact is - milky tea which has been kept warm in a can for a long time.
Vile.
Purveying small cans / cups of sake from 櫻正宗 (Sakura Masamune). Seen in Asakusa, Tokyo, in June 2005.

Located discretely outside this liquor store on the main street of a medium-sized village in Niigata Prefecture: the Condom Vending Machine.
