#776 “Gacha gacha”(capsule toy machine)~nostalgic confections~

“Gacha gacha”(capsule toy machine)

Sometimes I want to try “gacha gacha”(capsule toy machine) when I find something I really like, or when I just want to kill time. I also like checking capsule toys on Instagram and one day I found some really cute capsule toys.

Wow, this feels so nostalgic!


They were famous confection’s miniatures. The series have 5 kinds of confections. I especially want the “Izumiya Tokyo-ten special cookies.” This cookie box reminds me of my childhood because I ate a lot at home and at my grandparents’ home.

This is “otona-gai”.

I have never seen this capsule toy machine anywhere, so I thought my chance of getting this toy was quite small. Then I found out that I could buy capsule toys directly on the internet. This was “otona-gai”「大人買い」(spending a lot of money on things. Splurge on things that we couldn’t get when we were young)! Each item was 400 yen. There were 5 kinds of them but the total was only 1900 yen. And plus 340 yen for shipping. The total was 2240 yen.
Wasn’t it good for an “otona-gai”? Sometimes it is great to be an adult.

大人買いしちゃうなんて!
リッチなんだわぁ。
でもガチャガチャの場合、大人買いの方が結果安く付くよね。
赤い缶は、栄太郎飴だっけ?
中の飴もオモチャなの?
食べられたらいいのにー。

榮太郎飴です。中身も本物みたいで、一個ずつ取り出せるようにもなっているんです。

あの泉屋東京店のクッキーは、おばぁちゃん家によくあったんです。覚えていますか?
昭和の頃はどこの家にもあの缶があったのかも。
今も変わらないデザインですよね。
ガチャだけでは満足できず、ネットで本物のクッキーを購入したくなってきましたよ。
