Gachapon (or "gashapon") is one of my not-so-guilty pleasures here in Japan. They are coin-operated machines that randomly dispense from a selection of... anything, really. The endless variety is what keeps me addicted and checking them every time I find one.
The breeds in this series include (from right to left):
I came across one that caught my eye the other day.
This series is called "Inutori", which means "Dogbird".
The cover-boy, "Shibird".
"Terrierbird".
The masterfully named Bichon frise/pidgeon hybrid, "bigeon".
"Huskeybird".
"Retriebird".
"Pendog".
Each one comes with a nest and two small eggs. The machine will cost you 300 yen for each try.
