It seems like nowadays Japan has a capsule toy for everything, including ham and egg hamsters and shiba inu with their heads poking out of walls. Now capsule toy brand Tama-Kyu is introducing a line of figures covering a genre we didn't know we needed: public drunks!
While stumbling around drunk in public is obviously discouraged, Japan doesn't outright forbid the act of public drinking, so it's not uncommon to spot drinkers who have over-served themselves in the streets, particularly before last train. Tama-Kyu's #YopparaiNau (Drunks now) series is an all star team of five different drunken troublemakers you might encounter at Shinjuku station before your last train.
Someone passed out under a traffic cone.
The classic drunk who has somehow misplaced his pants.
Someone who can't keep upright without hugging a telephone pole, or anything, really.
The woman who has developed an inseparable relationship with a garbage can.
And of course the guy who passes out in this ridiculous position.
Each drunken capsule toy will be available for 300 yen a piece at Tama-Kyu Gachapon machines throughout Japan.
