Gacha!

This set made me smile before I even opened the box. It instantly reminded me of the gashapon machines in Japan—that irresistible combo of mystery, anticipation, and “just one more turn.” I was genuinely excited to build this one, and it did not disappoint.
The real magic here is the functionality. This thing doesn’t just look like a vending machine—it acts like one. The knob won’t turn unless a coin is inserted, which is such a delight

From a build perspective, it’s engaging and rewarding. LEGO really leaned into the engineering here, and it shows.
My one small wish? I would’ve loved the minifigures inside to be more in line with a collectible minifigure series—a little more unique, a little more “exclusive capsule energy.”

Overall, this set is playful, interactive, and pure joy. It’s part nostalgia, part toy, part display piece—and 100% a crowd-pleaser. If you like clever LEGO builds that do something, this one is absolutely worth the turn of the knob.

As Cute As It Looks on the Box

This was everything I expected. The build was fun, the little minifigures in the machine are adorable, the mechanics are fun, and it looks great being displayed. I do wish there were a few more balls for the price just to fill it up more, but other than that I loved it.

We bought this for our daughter's 9th birthday as her big present! We really hoped it would challenge her and it did! However, she still completed it within a day, lol! Very fun that she can continue to use it and play with it after the build and it is a great conversation piece! The price is high, but in the end, it was a great gift for our master Lego builder!

I built this together with my son. He had amazing fun building the structure. I had to help with the mechanism. He still takes it apart and rebuilds it from time to time. We also had a lot of fun just playing with the finished build.

Fun Dispenser

It was fun building the gumball dispenser. However, it was disappointing to wait for the clear plastics (major parts) to be replaced by LEGO as they were cracked.

Works like a real vending machine. Coin and all and you get fun minifigures. Best of both worlds.

So much fun!

This was a such a fun and clever build. The engineering behind it amazed me at each step. It was so fun to figure out how it all worked together and the feeling when you put the coin in and it turned for the first time was priceless. There are so many fun and unique minifigs included. My kids have all loved taking turns playing with it.
