What is a "Gashapon"?
You know those 25 cent capsule toy things you get at the super market?
The ones that come with very ugly figurines or those "magic sticky hands"
that stick for only the rest of the afternoon?
Yea, those are American gashapon (capsule toys). Japanese gashapon
are of much higher quality and of much higher monetary worth/value/cost.
I like 'em a lot. Also, Japanese gashapon revolve around series that
are actually cool, like anime, food products, pets and miniture furniture.
