Blind
Boxes
You may be asking,
"What the #!*@ is a blind box?" Allow us to explain (with the help of our friends at kidrobot...and BOY do they have a lot of explaining to do - they're one of the reasons we're so darn addicted to these little critters:
A blind box is a
type of packaging that completely hides its contents. Blind boxes are identical
in every way and nobody-including us-knows which toy is inside.
Odds
of Finding Figures
All figures in the series
are displayed on the side of the box, along with the odds ratio of finding each
one. You may also see one or two "chase" figures, which have lower
odds ratios and are only shown in silhouette.
As you can see, chase
figures are much more rare and, as a result, harder to get than others.
Occasionally, we include super mystery figures that aren't even on the box. In
the past, we've even included hand made one-of-a-kind figures by famous
artists!
Foil
Wrapping
We use foil to wrap the
figure so nobody can open the box and peek inside. Also, it prevents people
from using high-tech X-ray devices to scan the box. Believe it or not, it does
happen!
Now
The Fun Part!
Peel through the foil to see which figure you got. Score! You've
just added another kick-ass piece to your collection.
