The 171 capsule toy machines are located on the B1 floor of Terminal 2 at Tokyo Narita Airport. They were installed during the summer vacation of 2016 as a two-month limited-time attraction, but due to overwhelming popularity among travelers, they were made a permanent fixture. With over 340 types of capsules available, including rare editions that are usually hard to find, there’s a good chance you’ll get your hands on something special here!

To attract more visitors, the airport has put up signs in Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean that read: “Use your leftover yen and coins to try capsule toys!” Thanks to widespread sharing of the impressive capsule machine display on Facebook groups and Twitter, it has become a unique attraction exclusive to Narita Airport. If you’re a fan of capsule toys, don’t forget to stop by and “spin” for some when passing through Narita Airport!
