Blind Box refers to the type of sealed packaging that keeps the contents of the toy a mystery until you open it. Blind boxes typically come in a Series that are made up of a variety of different figures / designs that are usually depicted on the side of the box listed along with the odds of finding each one. Some are rarer than others and some are even super rare and hard to find. These are referred to as *secret* or *chase* figures.

Some items we have available for purchase are Pre-order items. This means you’re paying in-full for an item in advance, before its official release/ship date.
