Some assembly required—and that's just how we like it! These unique products are part-candy, part toy, and are some of Eiwa's most popular items. Check out these tutorials for the Moko Moko Wash DIY Washing Machine and the DIY Pretty Hair Salon.

 

Japan Big Thunder and Black Thunder

 

Black Thunder & Big Thunder

Though you may have never heard of it, Black Thunder is considered Japan's no. 1-selling chocolate cookie bar and manufacturer Yuraku's most popular item. A chocolate bar with crushed plain and cocoa biscuits, covered in milk chocolate, this treat can be found in almost any major convenience store in Japan.

Big Thunder, created by the same company, is a cocoa biscuit covered in milk chocolate formed to be easily split for sharing. It's so popular that, in 2014, it sold out a number of times in Taiwan.
