Viking Magic or Stevens Magic both have the Kabuki throw streamers.

You also have the option of making your own. It takes a bit of time, but you can make custom colors, lengths etc. It is not the easiest thing in the world (it's not that difficult either), but you will save a ton of money. For $3 in tissue paper (if you find it at the $1 store) and $3 in tape you can make around 60 throws. It will take you the better part of a day the first time but I have cut it down significantly since I first started. It might not be worth the time for some, but I like to do it because I can make red, white and green for christmas or red, white and blue, or orange for halloween or just white or just red or .... I spend a day making them and it takes the better part of a year to use them. ( I still have some orange from 2 Halloweens ago) Real Kabuki streamers cost about $1-$3 per throw. Mine cost 10-25 cents each plus my time. If I use colors sometimes it costs more since I have to go to a craft store for the paper (the dollar stores only carry white and "lousy" colors).
If you don't have the time/determination I will second the above sources (Stevens anf Viking) Joe |

I will second the option of making your own kabukis... But heres a little secret for you!
I can get 30 kabukis for 99 cents! (plus work time) PM if interested in the secret I don't want this info just out there on the net as it could have the potential to put the kabuki streamer manufacturers out of business lol! Derek Merdinyan |

Howard even mentioned that Viking had run out of the large as he had at the time. Why have the Large been so difficult to find lately? |

George Robinson at Viking told me that he will have some of both sizes in a week or two.

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies. You guys rock! Well, after an intense search on Google and numerous phone calls, I located two packages of large in Montreal. Stevens has the small in stock (as of today) so it seems if you desire to purchase Kabuki streamers, do it now. All the shops I spoke with did not know when more would arrive. Kind of a bummer since I am rehearsing for a competition. Seems I might have to "fake" the streamer toss in rehearsal until more arrive somewhere. Not a problem but....I like to "practice for real". So, just wanted to let you know. Thanks again Tony |

Hi there,
I think its a hard job to make your own Kabuki Streamer. Don't waste your time with that. Yu can find Kabuki's in the sites called: http://www.stevensmagic.com, http://www.magicwarehouse.com.. Also you will see there are different types of streamers but they aren't so good as Kabuki! magicially yours, Nedim Guzel |

Here's a short clip on our Pro Throw Streamers
Maybe not as good as Kabuki... but it's the best kind from Manila $10 for a Regular pack of 12pcs and $20 for the Jumbo size Available in white and colored http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=......mp;hl=en
