ABOUT THIS PLACE

Gashapon Bandai Official Shop Akihabara

A capsule-toy specialist on floor 4 of namco Akihabara. Check each series’ price and random assortment, along with official arrival and sold-out notices.

    The capsule-toy shop on floor 4

    The capsule-toy shop visited on this journey is on floor 4 of namco Akihabara. Gashapon is Bandai’s capsule-toy brand, with each machine offering a different series of small figures, charms or similar items. Distinguish it from the crane games and card shops in the same building.

    Read the price and assortment first

    Check the cost per play and the complete range shown on each machine’s product panel. Dispensing is random, unlike a normal display shop where you choose a particular character to buy. Repeated attempts can produce duplicates, so it is sensible to decide a spending limit first.

    Check availability by franchise

    The branch’s official X account, @GBO_akihabara, announces arrivals and sold-out items. You can also check the official Gashapon product and shop search, although the situation on site may change. The record of searching for Chainsaw Man products in November 2025 does not mean that series is currently available.

    Evening visits and building rules

    The official closing time is 23:00, but the namco building’s age-based admission restrictions also apply. For evening visits by under-16s and visits after 22:00 by under-18s, check the building rules first, including whether a guardian accompanies them.

    Dividing the rows in a forest of capsules

    When I thought of figures in Akihabara, Radio Kaikan was still the first place that came to mind. I had never missed it on my Tokyo trips in 2018 and 2019, and the memories were still…
