What is blind box?

Have you ever bought something without knowing exactly what’s inside? That’s the excitement behind the concept of a blind box. But what exactly is a blind box, and why are people around the globe so obsessed with them?Let’s take a closer look.

What is a Blind Box?

A blind box is all about the excitement of not knowing what’s inside. You won’t learn until you open it. This makes every unboxing a fun experience. Even with the blind boxes in hand, you can't identify the figure inside just by looking at the packaging.

Each TOPTOY blind box seals itself in an aluminum foil pouch. This makes it hard to open and reseal without a trace. So, you cannot take any sneaky peeks!

However, some series may have a slight weight difference between the blind boxes. And if you’re the kind of person who can spot those tiny differences and recognize every figure in the lineup, then guess what? You should definitely join us at TOPTOY—we could use a talent like yours on the team!

Collectors often see blind boxes in collectible toy series. A full set has many designs.

Each box holds one random figure from that set. In a Sanrio blind box series, you could get Hello Kitty, Cinnamoroll, or Kuromi. However, you won't know which character you have until you open the box. This sense of excitement and discovery is what makes blind boxes so addictive for collectors.

How Blind Boxes Work

Each blind box series typically includes several regular designs and a few rare or hidden variants. Here’s how the process usually works:

Purchase: You buy a blind box, not knowing what’s inside.

Unboxing: Open the box to reveal which figure you received.

Collect: Try to collect the full set, including any rare or hidden variants.

Trade: If you get duplicates, you can trade with other collectors to complete your collection.

TOPTOY also offers special display cases and collectible cards with the figures. This adds more value to the experience.

Tips for New Collectors

If you’re new to collecting blind boxes, our advice is simple: embrace the excitement and have fun! And here are a few tips to help you get started:

Start Small: Begin by buying just a few boxes from a series that appeals to you. Don’t feel pressured to complete a full set right away.

Join Collector Communities: Online forums, social media groups, and trading events are great ways to meet other collectors. You can also trade duplicate items with them.

Look for Limited Editions: Watch for rare or limited-edition figures. They can often gain value as time continues.

Show Off Your Collection: You can display your items on a shelf, in a case, or with custom dioramas. Sharing your collection can be as rewarding as finding it!
