Capsuleer Wacky Kaiyama has been known for many years as “Japan's number one capsule toy collector” and has appeared in numerous media outlets.
Wacky explained the latest capsule toys that have been the talk of the town this summer.
In addition, retro and rare items from the collection of over 110,000 pieces, which can be considered the originators of the latest gacha, are also featured.
Please enjoy the profound world of capsule toys to the fullest.
(Wacky Kaiyama)
Hello, my name is Wakky Kaiyama.
We are proud to announce our three choices for this summer.
The original (?) of those 110,000 pieces collector's name. Retro Rare Gacha will also make an appearance.
Please go beyond time and space and become addicted to the swamp of capsule toys.
[Really record and playback! Retro mini CD player] Toys Spirits ¥500
Big news this summer!
Toys Spirits' "Retro mini CD Player" won an excellence award in the variety category at the Tokyo Toy Show.
This is a prestigious award in this industry.
As someone who experienced the "cheap or bad" era, I am moved to tears at how well they have upgraded to this level.
A chunky boombox that pays homage to 80s/90s retro.
It is not just a miniature, but an excellent device that can record and play CDs by inserting a CD in the top part and pressing a button.
I miss these movements. The recorded voice, plays back beautifully.
That's why this amount of money will appear in a capsule-in golfer's room!
That's exciting.
In fact, the first time, the main unit, the attached media set, was not available.
This is the best part of the mess.
The progenitor of this would be "Record-Kun" in 1987.
The egg-shaped recording device has a retro look with REC and PLAY notations.
The only memory I have of "Record-Kun" is the noisy "rustle" when I pressed the button to record....
Still, I was impressed at the time.
Speaking of 100-yen gacha at that time, the only one that did not work out was the almost-plastic key chain.
For a wacky boy at that time, who was used to such disappointing hassle items, it was fine if the recording was just a "rustle" of noise (laughs).
Face reincarnation] Standstones ¥400
A unique figure in collaboration with "Gray Melon" was born!
The Yoshida Tanks-inspired look is nostalgic and even more eerie.
The indescribable expressions on their faces add to the reality of the situation and make it seem as if it could never happen, but it does. The worldview that makes us think that it is possible is superb.
This summer, a number of addicts have been coming out of the woodwork.
The lineup is too mysterious: turtles, tarantulas, octopus wieners, and octopus balls.
The series seems to have opened a forbidden door.
Around 1989, the "human dog" became a social phenomenon: a human reincarnated as a dog.
The popularity of the product spread to kids as well! It also appeared as gacha keshi.
Combined with the horror boom, the mismatch between the creepy scary face and the face made a lot of addicts. This is probably the original.
Mosaic] Media link 400 yen
Many dog and cat cap toys have appeared this summer, but in these days of strict compliancy, we voluntarily restrict ourselves to the important parts of a dog's body.
This would be excellent.
The bit pattern of the mosaic has a nostalgic feel, as if it were used in old video games.
Beagle! Don't be shy. It's been properly edited...
Lately, this manufacturer has been releasing gacha releases that are aggressive, but in a good way.
The "Shikkokko," a product of the Showa period with the same pose and generous exposure of the lower half of the body, is probably the original.
It was also developed in 1990 gacha. When you press the belly, you pee pee.
A new kind of water pistol! It comes out with strong water pressure and it hurts, well, a lot. I had a good laugh over it with my friend, but it brings back memories. It was a good item for summer, wasn't it?
This summer's capsule toys, but at the root of it all, they all contained the common denominator of "retro.
There are many others to be elected.
