Blind Box 101: Everything You Need to Know Before You Start Collecting

If you’ve ever scrolled through TikTok or Instagram and wondered why people are squealing with excitement while opening tiny boxes — welcome to the world of blind box collecting! ✨

This beginner’s guide will walk you through everything you need to know about blind boxes, from what they are to how you can start your own collection today.

🎁 What Is a Blind Box?

A blind box is a mystery package that contains a collectible toy or figurine. The catch? You don’t know which character you’ll get until you open it!

• Think of it as a mix between a surprise gift and a trading card pack.
• Popular brands include Pop Mart, HiToy, Baby Three, Dodo Nami, and more.
• Some figures are common, while others are rare or secret editions that everyone hunts for.

🌸 Why Are They So Addictive?

• The Thrill of the Reveal – Opening a blind box is a mini-celebration every time.
• Collectible Sets – Most blind boxes come as part of a themed series (fantasy, animals, kawaii characters, seasonal vibes).
• Community Fun – Collectors love to share reveals, trade doubles, and even compete to complete whole sets.
• Display Aesthetic – These little treasures look amazing on shelves, desks, or your kawaii corner at home.

💡 Tips for Beginners

1. Start With a Theme You Love
   Choose a series that makes you smile — whether it’s whimsical Labubus, dreamy Skullpandas, or cozy Baby Threes.
2. Set a Budget
   Blind boxes can be addictive! Decide how many you want to open each month.
3. Know the Rarities
   Each set has a chart showing common, rare, and hidden figures. This adds to the excitement!
4. Trade Smartly
   Got a duplicate? Join toy-collecting groups or swap with friends online.
5. Mix & Match
   Don’t limit yourself to one brand — exploring different IPs keeps your collection fun and personal.
