  • Capsela is a construction toy brand consisting primarily of gears and motors in spherical plastic capsules that can be connected to form various static or dynamic toys suitable for land or water. The capsules typically have six hollow octagonal connectors protruding, where an octagonal sleeve piece bridges between two capsules. The hollow connection pegs on a capsule can have electrical or rotary adapters inside, reaching into the next capsule. There are electric motor capsules, gear capsules, switch capsules, pontoon capsules, and others; there are also battery holders, wheels, propellers, impellers, lights, wires, and miscellaneous supporting pieces. Capsela products were originally manufactured by the Mitsubishi Pencil Company. The series was then licensed out to Play Jour and has since been produced by VTech, Kidology, and other subsidiaries. The range was re-released in Japan by Bandai, adding new colors to the basic range of transparent spheres. In the U.S., the Capsela line was purchased by Educational Insights, a manufacturer of learning toys and educational materials for school classroom, which has discontinued the line. (en)
  • Capsela est une gamme de jeux de construction qui n'est plus produite aujourd'hui. Les jeux se composent notamment de capsules de plastique sphériques contenant des engrenages et des moteurs, que l'on peut assembler les unes aux autres pour former des engins fonctionnant sur le sol ou sur l'eau. Les capsules ont généralement 6 connecteurs octogonaux creux, que des manchons symétriques servent à attacher les uns aux autres. Ces connecteurs creux peuvent laisser le passage à une transmission mécanique ou électrique d'une capsule à l'autre. IQ Key est une gamme dérivée de Capsela qui en reprend la plupart des éléments sous une forme légèrement différente. Les connecteurs manchons des deux gammes ne sont pas compatibles, mais quelques éléments (les barres) permettent d'assembler des pièces Capsela et IQ Key. (fr)
