This photo taken on November 15, 2017 shows figurines of women wearing typical office clothes, whose arms or legs are designed to hang over the edge of a glass, displayed at Tokyo-based manufacturer Kitan Club. Capsule toys have been around for more than 40 years but the craze really took off in 2012 when Tokyo-based manufacturer Kitan Club launched its "Koppu no Fuchico" ("Fuchico at the edge of a glass"). The miniature trinkets nestled inside plastic bubbles have enjoyed huge success by targeting adults as well as children and riding the wave of social media as the ultimate "Instagram-ready" accessory. / AFP PHOTO / Kazuhiro NOGI / TO GO WITH AFP STORY JAPAN-TOYS-ENTERTAINMENT,FEATURE BY NATSUKO FUKUE (Photo credit should read KAZUHIRO NOGI/AFP via Getty Images)
