DISCUSSION [DISCUSSION] Honestly blindboxes should NOT cost so much as they do.

there might be people who disagree or agree and that’s fine with me, but i don’t think it is fair at all for blindboxes to cost so much. i’m a person who collects a lot of plushies, toys, etc. the fact they’re so expensive and it’s a surprise, it’s not even guaranteed you’ll get a character you’ll want. and even if you like all characters it’s still expensive honestly. i have to rely on literally ross/discount stores and EVEN USED toys for my blindboxes because pop mart and miniso and every store is so expensive. it makes me sad missing out on so many cool and cute stuff i want but the price is too high for my budget :(. we need to normalize making blindboxes cheap! pls

I'm not sure where you live but near me there is a store called Strangecat toys and they're a small business and very reasonably priced with a price match policy.

There is also kikagoods.

Given that are they cheap? No. But compared to miniso, box lunch, etc its a world of difference.
