Okay...so this isn't polish, this isn't makeup, this isn't Influenster, nor is this BZZAgent, but it is something else I highly enjoy. It's KIDROBOT! For those of you who don't know, I'm a huge nerd. I love anything to do with toys (I still collect Lego), video games, superheros, ect. This is something I just started collecting last year, and I already have a good amount of figures in my collection. Kidrobots' are collectible vinyl figurines that come in all sorts of styles, characters, things, ect. They come in a "blind box" which means you never know what you're going to get! They're so fun and addicting! The figures come with a pamphlet or card usually, and the box tells you how rare they are. (?/?? is super rare, and is usually a chase. A Chase is when a figure is really rare, people usually "chase" to get it. They could be priced as high as $300, and I actually have one that's worth $90, which I only paid $10 for the box, so if I wasn't a collector that'd be an $80 profit!) So now that you know a little bit about them, let's get into what I got!
This is the box for the figure I got. It's the Simpsons Series 2 Mini Vinyl Figure (All of the boxes are the same...this is just what they look like). I have 1 already, and really enjoyed them. Actually, the one I got today is on this box :)
This is one of the sides of the box. You can see that it lists the characters, and the ratios of what you could possibly get. If you were to buy a case of these (which come with 20) you'd almost automatically get the ones listed 1/20...not always though. As you can see the very last one is both blacked out, and has a ratio of ?/?? so that's VERY rare! I have a feeling it might be Disco Stu... :) I'm a HUGE Zombie fan...I want the whole family as the zombies, but I doubt I could ever get them :'( As you can see those are some of the rarest of the group!
Yet again, here is the other side of the box. It lists more characters you could receive with their ratios. Now let's see what I got!
I got Herman! The one armed gun shop owner who once tied Officer Wiggum up with a ball gag and all! :) He's a crazy man! His ratio is 1/20, so he's very common. One of the ones you're almost guaranteed to get in a case. The little card that comes with him is actually a sticker, but I just keep them as a card for collecting purposes.
Here is a close up of Herman. You can see that these figures are very detailed, down to the painted badge on his vest, and the logo on his stump sleeve!
Here is Herman with my other Simpsons figure, Mariachi Lisa! :) She is a 1/25, and very top heavy, it took me a few tries to get her standing still like this! That's also her violin in front of her that fell over...whoops!
These figures are very fun to collect, and are a very cool addition to any collection, whether it be a Kidrobot collection, or simpsons.
They also have Family Guy, Futurama and South Park series as well as their own characters.
The Simpsons Blind Boxes retail for $9.99 and you can find them in Comic Shops or online at Amazon.com and Kidrobot.com
