Towering at 5 metres, the fully functional Sweet Bean Gashapon machine at Marina Square is set to be awarded "Singapore’s largest gashapon machine" by the Singapore Book of Records. Inside are over 4,500 Gashapon balls containing surprise POP MART collectibles.

It works like any regular ol' gashapon machine, save for its massive knob that supersizes the fun and anticipation of dispensing the prize.

Unfortunately it's not just anyone who can have a go at cranking the machine. Shoppers have to sign up as a Marina Square Rewards member, which is free, and spend a minimum of $180 at Marina Square mall to get one token to play.

Surrounding the giant gashapon machine are installations of human-sized Sweet Bean figures where shoppers can strike a pose for the 'gram.

The Sweet Bean Gashapon machine and installations will be open at Marina Square Central Atrium from     18 November 2022 to 1 January 2023.
