Seagull still makes the TLR - Adorama is selling a "Seagull 104, 6cm x 6cm
Medium Format Twin Lens Reflex (TLR) Camera with Built-in 75mm f/3.5 Lens."
for only $139.95.

I lived in China from 1996-2001 (in both Yunnan province and in Beijing) and
rarely saw anyone using a 120 film camera.  The Seagull TLRs were found in
camera stores, usually in dusty cabinets in the back, and occasionally as a
"antique stores" but the main camera stores were all P&S....digitals were
just starting to appear when I left.

 

120 film could be found but not easily by any means.

Surprised they don't sell the Seagull photo line....  or size 120 film
(which I hear is quite popular there.)
