There's a store in chinatown just right off the 110fwy north (stadium way/chinatown exit) that sells those and other statues. You might not notice them, they'll be on the left right when you get off the fwy.

They're like right in a corner of this one street... They should have their stuff out too once you see it you'll know it's them. But other than that hopefully they're still out there. It's been a while for me.

Chinatown and Little Tokyo are practically catered towards tourists now these days. Real Asian areas: San Gabriel, Alhambra, Monterey Park, Rowland Heights, Torrance, Gardena, LA K-town.
