Gashapon Toys

Gashapon (ガシャポン), also called gachapon (ガチャポン), are a variety of vending machine-dispensed capsule toys popular in Japan and elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Gashapon typically cost?

The cost of Gashapon can vary depending on the complexity and rarity of the collectible, but they generally range from 200 to 600 yen (approximately $2 to $6 AUD) on the streets throughout Japan. Some exclusive or limited edition sets may cost more. Obviously selling them in a store such as ours you have to factor in freight from Japan and normal business running costs.

Can I choose the Gashapon I want?

he nature of Gashapon is based on randomness; you can't choose the specific toy you get from a vending machine. Each capsule is a surprise, but that's part of the fun!

re there any Gashapon for adults, or are they just for kids?

Absolutely, Gashapon are for collectors of all ages! While many toys appeal to children, there's a vast selection of Gashapon designed with adult collectors in mind, featuring items from popular anime, video games, movies, and even realistic miniature models.

How often do new Gashapon collections get released?

New Gashapon collections are released quite frequently, with Bandai and other manufacturers constantly updating their offerings to include the latest anime, movie, and game franchises, as well as original and unique designs. Keep an eye on Bandai's announcements or your local Gashapon supplier for the latest releases.

Do Gashapon Need Assembling?

Yes, some Gashapon require assembly, but the level of assembly varies depending on the type of toy. Many Gashapon come as simple, one-piece collectibles that require no assembly at all. However, others, especially those that are more detailed or larger in size, may come in parts that need to be put together by the collector. The assembly is typically straightforward, with parts designed to snap together easily, and instructions are usually included in the capsule if assembly is required. This can add an extra layer of engagement and satisfaction for collectors, as they get to build part of their collectible themselves.
