One question we hear time and time again is "What is a capsule toy?". Well you actually know what it is, but not in this context. Also referred to as "gumballs", capsule toys are sold from vending machines in capsules, just like the ones you see at Toys R Us and the ones located in the front of your local grocery store. As with everything in Japan though, the items they choose to sell just happen to be cooler!
