You Can Get a FREE Souvenir From EPCOT, and We Can’t Say No

By Sydney Leever Leave a Comment

When we’re at EPCOT, we love going to the Japan Pavilion. It’s a great spot for Japanese food, drinks, and dessert, plus there’s a massive shop for all of your souvenir needs.

The cutest little EPCOT souvenir!

We’ve fallen in love with the Gachapon machines outside of Mitsukoshi Department Store, and for a limited time, you can get a free souvenir there!

Last year, the Japan Pavilion surprised Disney fans by adding a vending machine station selling gachapon. Over in Gachapon Corner outside of Mitsukoshi, these adorable vending machines are straight from Japan, featuring Gachapons, a toy vending machine that gives you a random small toy or collectible that’s super popular in Japan. It’s like a blind box, but more of an experience!

So many options!

These Gachapon machines turn a year old soon, and Mitsukoshi is doing a buy-one-get-one deal to celebrate. Beginning August 20th at 10:30 AM, you can purchase any Gachapon and then come inside Mitsukoshi Merchandise to receive a FREE Gachapon tote bag or Gachapon sticker, while supplies last. A Mitsukoshi employee gave us a sneak peek of the freebie options, and they’re SO cute.

Gachapon Corner has a wide selection of Gachapon toys to choose from, featuring Japanese characters like Hello Kitty and Sailor Moon, anime like Dragon Ball Z and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, or animals like whales and dinosaurs. One of our favorites is the Hello Kitty dessert Gachapon, featuring Hello Kitty and Friends as ice cream, where we got this super cute Cinnamoroll ice cream sundae!

We love him!

We’ll be sure to keep you updated on more EPCOT deals and promos, because who doesn’t love a good deal? Stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more Disney World news!
