This is a series of gashapon (capsule toys) or trading figures depicting characters or people.
Here's a nifty little 1/2-scale gashapon dispenser! Gashapon are the nifty encapsuled toys and trinkets found just about anywhere in Japan. Gashapon machines are basically they are toy vending machines, randomly dispensing their wares when money is inserted and the handle is turned. Turn the handle--"gasha!"--and "pon!", out comes the toy! This 1/2-scale set comes with the dispenser, six empty capsules (you'll have to load 'em with goodies yourself!), price plate, joint parts (two dispensers can be stacked or joined side-by-side), an instruction booklet (in Japanese), and a display card for the front clear part. Fun!
