Blind box collecting has become one of the most popular hobbies among toy lovers worldwide. Blind boxes are more than just toys—they’re tiny bursts of joy that can brighten your day.
They bring a sense of surprise and excitement every time you open one, making even a small moment feel special.
If you enjoy games like Genshin Impact or Honkai Star Rail, you might find yourself wanting to own the characters you love as mini figures or collectible displays—a way to show your loyalty to your favorite games.
And even if you’re not a gamer, exploring blind boxes often reveals characters and designs that you’ll instantly fall in love with.
Start Small – Pick Your First Blind Boxes
For newcomers, it’s best to start small. Pick a few blind boxes to get a feel for your favorite styles, designs, and themes. This approach allows you to explore your personal preferences without being overwhelmed. Once you understand what appeals to you, you might consider buying a full box set, which contains the entire series without duplicates and increases your chances of getting rare or hidden figures.
