Our 5 Favorite Gachapon of 2026 (So Far!)
Calling all Gacha-holics and capsule toy collectors!
The world of Japanese capsule toys, or Gashapon (ガチャポン), is in a constant state of evolution. Every month, we see inventive new series and iconic characters making their debut—or a long-awaited comeback. As your definitive source for the latest trends straight from Japan, we’re always on the lookout for the next big hit.
After analyzing the most popular search trends from the past year, we’ve curated a list of the Top 5 Gachapon series that have defined 2026 so far. From whimsical miniatures to functional desk companions, this list even surprised us. Get ready to discover your next must-have collectible!
5. Mini Sniper Gachapon Toy
This unique gachapon series explores the "art of camouflage" with miniature snipers hidden in everyday items. Featured here is the macaron sniper, part of a larger set that includes a tire, earphone wires, and dice. It's a whimsical, charming take on the classic hidden-figure toy.
4. The Mini Nikon Camera Series Gachapon Miniatures
We admit to a certain bias for odd, trinket-style gachapon, but this series is undeniably impressive. It’s a perfect miniature for camera enthusiasts or anyone looking for a uniquely random, yet thoughtful gift.
3. Fuggler Collectibles
Fugglers are unapologetically "fugly"—and we wouldn't have it any other way. They manage to be adorable and unsettling all at once, sparking a strange mix of love and loathing. Ultimately, the charm wins out every time; we choose to embrace the weird.
2. Minatare Room Planetarium
This was a standout favorite for us this month. These miniature projection planetariums offer a variety of colors and settings to cast a star-filled sky anywhere. It is a versatile piece that I dare say is perfect for anyone.
1. BellaBot Gachapon Miniature
While the competition was stiff, this is undoubtedly the most unique release of the month. These miniature robot waiters feature a functional wind-up mechanism that allows them to glide across the floor. The series offers a charming variety of waiter outfits, each paired with a different "cat-designed" face.
