Started small, done growed big. Deserves every bit. What humor, what talent! I don't think that I want to know how little those cost right out of a machine...
Wow. Now I can never go to Japan because I will never be able to leave due to spending all my money on Gachas.... Maybe that actually wouldn't be so bad though. That store full of machines just looks like an amazing dream come true.
I want that guy! Why aren't these machines being placed world wide? The manufacturers are missing out. Day brightener over here, that's for sure!
A stationery shop in Tsuruoka City Rusty old Gachapon machines still in use in 2015 http://thecrystalskull.blog135.fc2.com/blog-entry-1285.html
I'm really glad I have these Kuniyoshi ones. He's one of my favorite artists and these are just the best.
I lucked upon them when I was at a tattoo convention in London last September and a Japanese tattooist brought a bunch of them to sell (as well as the Kuniyoshi Negora). I passed on the Negora but got these gacha as well as a bunch of yakuza movie posters haha
nice! Yakuza movies are good, I usually like the more surreal ones, Ishi etc. Still I should see if the guy at Tamadochi (local J-pop here) has any interest in putting in a machine or two...
