The origin of twisted eggs The concept of this toy vending machine originated in the United States and existed about 1920 years ago. Later, this kind of trafficking spread to Japan, where it developed and became the largest supplier of twisted eggs in the world. Japan not only builds brands for toys in an organized way, but also takes advantage of the egg twister. Because you never know what will fall out, as a marketing strategy, turning the mainstream of selling twisted eggs from food into toys has not only become children's favorite, but also one of the items that adults hope to collect. 2008-04-2319: 36: 41Supplement: It was originally put in front of the grocery store for children to play with. Most of them are chewing gum, snacks or some small toys, and there is no plastic eggshell packaging outside. It's a bit like a machine selling spherical bubble gum at the entrance of Taiwan Province MRT station. It has a transparent ball filled with candy and an iron body at the bottom. When you put in a coin, turn the handle and the candy will fall. The twisted eggs we saw in the market today were mainly improved in Japan. 2008-04-23 19:36:58 Supplement: Twisted eggs, also known as capsule toys, mean "crack" in Japanese, which is the sound of hard objects colliding and rolling, that is, the sound of simulating twisted eggs falling out. The English names of Twisted Eggs are not so uniform. Generally, the name used to make twisted eggs is gasiapon or gachapon, and the name of twisted eggs registered by BANDIA Company is GASHAPON. At present, Yujin, the largest company in Japan, calls twisted eggs Gacha. 2008-04-23 19:38:24 Supplement: The earliest egg-twisting toy appeared in 1986, but by 1988, the egg-twisting machine was just a white machine on an iron shelf, and the body material was also iron; It is usually placed in front of the grocery store or bookstore. At that time, the price was 1 yen 20 yuan, equivalent to about NT$ in 5 yuan. At that time, this machine was still in front of the grocery store in Taiwan Province Province. Some of them are equipped with small plastic models, and some are selling cards (fan cards or video game cards). 2008-04-23 19:38:40 Supplement: 1995, Japanese Yujin Company officially produced the "Slim Boy" model (translated as Lucky Boy in Taiwan Province Province). The machine was changed from the original heavy iron body to the plastic upper and lower body. In addition to avoiding the shortcoming that iron products are easy to rust, the color changes are also quite rich. What Taiwan Province Province sees now is generally red, green or yellow-green, and there are a few blue-and-white bodies. 2008-04-23 19:38:59 Supplement: In 2000, Yujin Company officially released Japanese twisted eggs overseas, and combined with the national conditions of various countries, it produced a series of twisted eggs that were well received by local consumers, with distribution points all over the world: the United States, Chinese mainland, Taiwan Province Province, Asia and Europe, among which Taiwan Province Province was a country with high penetration rate. 2008-04-2319: 39:19 Supplement: The basic accessories of a twisted egg are an eggshell, an egg paper and its contents. Apart from toys being the focus of consumers' attention, egg paper is also very important. Egg paper is not only a sharp weapon for collectors to distinguish between true and false when buying, but also the best catalogue for collection. On a small piece of egg paper, all the products and names of this series will be marked, and on the back, there will be this product and the series of games to be produced. It can be said that the information is very rich. Usually, the more particular players will keep every piece of egg paper, which not only makes the collection more complete, but also makes the market better by changing hands when they don't want to keep this set. However, it is strongly recommended that whether you are a collector or not, it is best to keep at least one piece of egg paper in each set, so that you can not only identify the authenticity, but also know the relevant information and name of this series in the future. Moreover, the pattern design of egg paper is also quite rich and fancy, which is another valuable collection. 2008-04-23 19:39:24 Supplement: Twisted eggs are the lowest cost in toy collection. Generally, the twisted eggs on the market for consumers to spin are small 100 yen, which is about equal to 30 yuan and big 50 yuan. The price difference will be due to the size and content. In addition, there are Japanese yen from 300 yuan, which can only be imported from Japan through toy stores because there is no official agent in Taiwan Province Province at present. Usually, the twisted eggs in Japanese currency 300 yuan are exquisite and gorgeous in quality, and most of them are SR pictures. In addition to these three prices, there is also a kind of twisted egg with the price of yen 19 1 yuan, which is limited to 7- 1 1 and 7- 1 which are banned from production. Since April 2003, Taiwan Province Province has been imported from Japanese agents in the north of Taiwan Province Province. 2008-04-23 19:42:35 Supplement: The above information was provided by s92.tku.edu/~492070122/history. 2008-04-23 19:44:35 Supplement: No, please choose me!
