Known for their diverse and charmingly quirky capsule toys, Japanese manufacturer YELL (エール) is set to release a new gashapon series in May 2022 that you might find yourself unable to put down: the "Stove Knob"!
Life is full of those little, oddly satisfying experiences that, once you start, you just can't stop – like popping bubble wrap, clicking a pen, or watching slow-motion videos of needles piercing water balloons. These moments offer a unique sense of calm and satisfaction through sight, sound, and touch. YELL's new "Stove Knob" taps into that feeling, offering a 6.5 cm replica of a stove knob that you can actually turn. Even better, when you twist it all the way to the "ignition" point, it makes a satisfying "click" sound, significantly boosting its playability and overall enjoyment! Each knob also comes equipped with a magnet and a ball chain, so you can stick it on your fridge or hook it onto your backpack for on-the-go fidgeting and satisfying clicks anytime, anywhere.
The YELL "Stove Knob" series features 6 different styles:
1. Grey × White (グレー×ホワイト)
2. White × Grey (ホワイト×グレー)
3. Ivory × Black (アイボリー×ブラック)
4. Black × Ivory (ブラック×アイボリー)
5. Khaki × Black (カーキ×ブラック)
6. Black × Khaki (ブラック×カーキ)
