A New Era of Capsule Toys: Yakekuso 100 Series
On February 27, 2026, Bushiroad Creative, a subsidiary of Bushiroad Inc. based in Nakano, Tokyo, will launch the highly anticipated "Yakekuso 100 Series" in capsule toy corners nationwide. This innovative line, branded under the popular capsule toy label "Bushikapu!", offers an exciting opportunity for toy enthusiasts to enjoy quality fun at a surprisingly affordable price of just 100 yen (including tax).
Overview of the Yakekuso 100 Series
The Yakekuso 100 Series comprises a total of
nine distinct types of toy knives, each measuring approximately 50mm and crafted from durable PVC. Created by the creative minds at Zarigani Works, this unique series brings a novel twist to the conventional capsule toy market by emphasizing interactive play.

The first installment features a "sharpening" theme, allowing users to virtually "sharpen" the pencil-like eraser knife on paper surfaces — as they use the toy, they’ll observe the eraser's blade becoming sharper!
