How much does gashapon machine hire cost in Melbourne?

Hire starts from $500, with every quote tailored to your date, venue and hire length. Get in touch for a tailored quote, most enquiries are answered the same day, and a refundable security bond applies.

What goes in the gashapon capsules?

Anything that fits a capsule: collectable toys, lollies, vouchers, product samples, small merch, golden tickets or mixed prize tiers. We will help you plan the fill for your event or campaign.

Do you deliver across all of Melbourne?

Yes. Delivery is quoted based on your location and venue access. We deliver, set up and pack down every booking for you.

Can it be branded for our event or campaign?

Yes. With in-house printing and our own graphic designers we can wrap it in your logo, colours or campaign artwork. Custom wraps start from $250, with faster turnarounds than outsourced wraps.

How far in advance should I book?

We recommend locking in a couple of weeks ahead for weekend and peak-season dates, but we regularly handle last-minute bookings, so it's always worth asking. We operate seven days a week, including public holidays.

Just access to a standard powerpoint. We position it, plug it in and have it running before your event starts.

Built for any crowd

The capsule reveal crowds queue for.

A giant gashapon machine is sampling made theatrical, Japanese-style. Retail campaigns, launches and activations load the capsules with samples, offers and merch, and every turn is a small moment of suspense that ends with your product in someone’s hand.

It is a natural fit for anime, gaming and collectable brands, and equally at home at parties, fetes and weddings as a capsule-favour moment guests remember.
