扭蛋英文叫什麼?

扭蛋=Gashapon

轉蛋，或扭蛋，是一種源於日本的玩具。一個轉蛋的典型內容是一個可以打開成兩半的塑膠蛋殼，在裡面裝有玩具和說明書。

轉蛋玩具通常是根據一些流行於日本漫畫、電動玩具、動畫裡面的角色而製成。轉蛋會放在一臺轉蛋機裡面，將錢投入機器中後，用手去旋轉開關，一個轉蛋就會掉下來。大部分轉蛋會出成一個系列，每個系列通常會有6到十幾種玩具不等。當你去旋轉轉蛋機時，你無法決定掉下來的玩具是否是那個系列中你最想要的，而這也是許多人覺得玩轉蛋的樂趣之一（亦是許多人掉入深淵的開端）。有些人會想要收集整套系列的玩具，但由於常常會轉到重複的轉蛋，轉到缺少的最後一顆轉蛋並不容易，因此整套齊全的轉蛋如果出賣的話，可以賣到比原價更高的價格。由於轉蛋的汰換速度很快，有些收集轉蛋的玩家會先將轉蛋保留幾年之後再賣出，通常也會賣到更高的價格。

轉蛋說明書上通常會有整套玩具系列的圖片，以及注意事項、版權聲明或廣告等等。

GashaponGashapon (ガチャポン in katakana - more accurately, gachapon), also referred to as "trading toy", is a Japanese onomatopoeia, made up of two sounds: "gacha" for the turning of a crank on a toy vending machine, and "pon" for the sound of the toy capsule dropping into the receptacle. It is used to describe both the machines themselves, and any toy obtained from them.

Gashapon machines are similar to the coin-op toy vending machines seen outside of grocery stores and other retailers in the United States. While coin-op vending toys are usually cheap, low-quality products, sold for a quarter or 50 cents, Japanese Gashapon can cost anywhere from 100 - 500 yen (Equal to $1–$5 US) and are normally a much higher quality product.

They are often constructed from high-grade PVC plastic, and contain more molding detail and carefully painted features. However, these are not simply toys: they are collector's items, with rare ones fetching extremely high prices.

Gashapon toys are often based on popular character licenses from Japanese manga, video games, anime and popular icons. These highly detailed toys based on popular culture icons have found a large following among adults in Japan, and the trend is filtering to the West with other popular culture influences such as anime and manga. It is not at all uncommon to see sets based on licenses explicitly for adults, with figures of naked or near-naked women.
