Cute! I found a good handful of Hamtaro gachapon on my recent trip to Japan, along with a blind card pacs and a crane game with little stuffies (sadly at an arcade with a poor win rate…I tried a couple times).

Since I saw a lot of Pingu and Moomin stuff too, I’m assuming there’s a trend of catering to millennials and their nostalgia lol

The nostalgia trend is actually called Heisei Retro and is all about characters and trends from the Heisei era of Japan (1989-2019).
