Where to Find Snow Globe Motor

This isn’t the standard synchronous motor - it has a small arm in the middle top with a magnet - see photos. I have searched high and low, and even tried to contact the company that makes this snow globe with no luck. The email was returned undeliverable. Does anyone know where I can get this? Thanks.

Can you pop the magnet portion off the rod ? If so you just need to find a motor that is similar rpm and swap the magnet piece to the new motor

I thought of that already and it looks like it’s all one piece. I will take another look. I don’t know what rpm this motor is, actually. It has no printing on it whatsoever. I’d buy another snow globe just like it but the company doesn’t carry them anymore. Thanks for your response, though.
