3 Men Steal Dragon Ball Gashapon Machine
Sometimes people love collecting gashapon so much that they would go to the extend of stealing the entire machine.
The Mamoyama police station in the central Japanese prefecture of Shiga have arrested a man and two teenagers on October 22 on suspicion of stealing Dragon Ball gashapon figures, together with the vending machine!! LOL
There were reportedly about 20 figures in the machine which were sold for 200 yen (about US$2) each. The vending machine itself is worth about 14,000 yen (US$140).
Even though the bookstore had more than ten vending machines stacked side-by-side, the suspects reportedly took just the machine with the Dragon Ball figures “because they sell for high prices.”

LOL even though the criminals were smart enough to realise that Dragon Ball gashapons sold for more money, they were still too dumb to avoid being caught by the police.
Its interesting how they managed to remove the entire gashapon machine though.
it would have been funny if their excuse was “we are searching for the dragon balls”
i bet when they got it home they had to pull all the seats off of their sofas to find money to put in it to get ALL the balls out
