What kind of vending machine is this?

Sighted recently in the Motomachi area of Toyota City, Japan, an interesting vending machine.
On the bottom, it says, "King's Treasure Box". Hmmmm... Click on the photo for a closer look.

There are lots of Japanese vending machines, but I've never seen anything like this. On a recent trip to Japan this was near the AB hotel in Toyota Motomachi. The only nearby businesses are a hotel, a real estate office and a laundromat. Otherwise there is very little foot traffic and nowhere to park on the busy adjacent street.
Roughly translated, it looks like you can buy any of the items displayed that you've been dreaming about owning, but haven't been able to purchase. Until today! Now 1 dream costs ¥1000 (about $10)! What a deal! I wonder what the owner of the vending machine was thinking to locate the machine there?
