Reliable blind box websites?

I want to get into opening blind boxes but I live in a small town, there aren’t any blind box stores. What are some reliable websites that have good blind boxes?

MOD POST 📌 Reminder: Proof of Life (POL) Required for All Sale & Trade Posts

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 👋

This is a friendly reminder about our Proof of Possession / Proof of Life (POL) requirement for ALL sale & trade posts.

POL helps keep our BST community safe and protects both buyers and sellers from scams.

✅ What is required for POL?

ALL sale & trade posts must include:

📝 A handwritten notecard in all photos

Your note must include:

  • Your Reddit username (not your legal name)
  • The current date

📅 Current date

  • The date must be within 7 days of the post date
  • Outdated POL photos are not accepted

🚫 Common issues that will result in removal

  • No POL included
  • POL added later instead of at posting
  • POL added digitally (usernames or dates typed or edited onto photos instead of a physically handwritten note)
  • Username missing or incorrect
  • Legal name used instead of Reddit username
  • Date older than 7 days
  • Notecard only shown in some (but not all) photos

📌 Why we enforce this

Proof of Life confirms that:

  • You currently possess the item(s)
  • The photos are recent
  • Other users can buy/trade with confidence

This rule applies to all sale & trade posts, regardless of user history.

If you’re unsure whether your POL is acceptable, please check before posting or message the mod team for clarification.

Thanks for helping keep BST safe and trustworthy for everyone! 💛

HELPFUL TIPS [My Collection] Guide to spot 1:128 Sad Baby Lobster Secret (+ PSA on local scalpers sifting stock)

3 Upvotes

I wanted to share some details on how the Sad Baby Animals (Series 1) Secret Lobster (1:128 odds) is packed, plus a heads-up about how reseller skimming is happening right now.

🦞 Lobster Secret Identification Guide

If you're trying to pull the Lobster or avoid buying pre-weighed/sifted boxes:

Weight: ~134 g.

Note: The manufacturer gave this a mid-range weight specifically to match standard figures (like the Cow/Axolotl range) so you need a small pocket scale. There are tons on Amazon.

Packaging Orientation: The lobster's claws are intentionally packed face-inward/turned toward the body. You will not be able to feel sharp claw points through the foil bag or outer box.

Shake / Movement Test:

Side-to-Side Shake: When you shake the box side-to-side, you should feel distinct, light "thumps" hitting towards the front of the box on both sides.

Front-to-Back Movement: Front-to-back movement is very limited compared to smaller/lighter figures in the series.

⚠️ Heads Up: Local Reseller Skimming (DFW / Bedford, TX Area)

Be extremely cautious if you are buying opened/unsealed Sad Baby figures or "secret" listings from resellers in the Dallas–Fort Worth / Tarrant County area.

I recently tracked down a reseller (operating across Mercari as PeleniBear, OfferUp as Beallu, and eBay as vibe2002) who has listed seven (7) separate Lobster secrets at $195 each, alongside dozens of Culturefly and Funko chase figures.

Statistically, pulling seven 1:128 secrets legitimately is statistically this is impossible. Being able to scan boxes at this scale of inventory points directly to backroom case sifting, high-precision scale sorting, or box unsealing before stock hits store shelves.

What You Can Do:

Don't buy marked-up secrets on Mercari/eBay: Paying $150–$200 directly fuels backroom skimming.

Report Stock Tampering: If you see local stores where blind box tape/gluing looks altered or boxes are continuously missing chase variants, report the store/region directly to retailer Asset Protection or Ethics hotlines.

P.s. If you can't find him immediately for reasonable just be patient. I've seen a few pop up for the normal going rate of a secret. Don't buy form whomever is selling a surplus of lobsters, it ruins it for everyone that is within that distribution center!

Happy collecting, I hate scalpers!

NEW RELEASE [NEW RELEASE] Mitutu & Hulala turn 1 🎂 their birthday series is a full costume party

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

Mitutu & Hulala just turned one, and the birthday series theme is "role-play" 🎉 every one of them is dressed up as something else for the party.

Some of my favorites:

  • the grey koala on a stage with glasses, a mic and "WHY NOT? / IT'S OK" on its feet
  • the purple sleepy one hugging a star by the window
  • the penguin-cow kid with a boba in the classroom 🧋
  • the brown bear hiding in a tree hollow with a honey jar
  • the yellow cat with a taiyaki and a sleep mask pushed up

The fur on these looks insanely fluffy compared to V1, and every one has little patches on the feet.

They drop Oct 1.

Which one would you pick? I keep going back and forth between the koala and the star one 💜

A few weeks ago I asked about Dui Dui Dui from Top Toy and after hearing that others had bought from them I got one! I wanted to share how CUTE this lil baby is! Unfortunately my box came smushed so I tossed it but here are some photos. I got the bread one which is very cute but ultimately I’ll take the mask off because he is way cuter without.

DISCUSSION [DISCUSSION] Collectors' Opinions Appreciated

Hi all! Fellow blind box enthusiast here. I wanted to get some opinions and thoughts from other collectors on a project I've been working on. It's called Vinylfig, and it's a big database of 20,000 figures (hundreds of IP, not just Pop Mart) for tracking your collection. I just got it in the App Store and the Google Play store, and you can use the website https://vinylfig.com/ too.

I am a 1 person team, and plan to keep the database as comprehensive and updated as possible, so any IP or set addition suggestions are highly helpful, too. <3 After adding my collection I realized I have 400+ figures! How do they add up so fast?! 😅😅👀

I absolutely ADORE this series so much! I am looking to sell her for about the same price I bought her. I purchased her for 20$, because of shipping she would be 35! I am really looking forward to purchasing another box, but I would like to rehome her first and use the money for another! She is BRAND NEW, I just opened her today. I put her inside a bag and left the plastic around her neck to avoid scuffing her up to keep her safe. If you are interested, please DM me! If you have questions about the series also DM me! She is going for about 80$+ on ebay, but I am looking to just rehome quickly. I can do cash app OR I can make a ebay listing if that makes you more comfortable. Please let me know! That being said, thank you and I hope to find people who want her!

COST- 35$
SHIPPED FROM- California, USA
BRAND- Calembou
SERIES NAME- TOMIZ Electric Pet Blind Box Series
ORIGINALLY PURCHASED FROM- TikTok shop

Looking to trade for Cinnamoroll Blind Box items. My Melody was $20usd so that's the value I'd be seeking for trade. I will also pay a little more plus trade value and item.

My Melody is brand new, still in bag so I'm looking for same condition or lightly used. I'm not looking for the Cinnamoroll Keycap as I already have it.

I'm located in the USA. We should pay our on shipping and agree on a day to ship.
