So I go into Walgreens to check for a black suit spiderman exclusive and I'm all sad and weeping tears of heartache (on the inside) when I don't find one. Disgusted I search all around the store, maybe for a hidden display and end up right back on the toy aisle starring at the blank shelf space disheartened. Then, I saw mystery minis sitting there and figured why not. This Walking Dead Series 2 Mystery Mini shall be my chocolate to my heartbreak.
I checkout and walk out to my vehicle where I wrestle viciously with this darned black plastic bag, just to finally crack it up and, aww no cool characters just a silly walker. So I stuff it back in the box and drive home. When I get home I look at the back of the box and see a 1/72 beside the picture of it and realize, I just found a rare mystery mini for my first one!

Re: My First Mystery Solved!
Better luck with mystery minis than their pop exclusives I feel your pain there. Congrats on the pull!

Re: My First Mystery Solved!
That's the hook. There's this karmic blind box vibe that guarantees your first pull will be a chase figure. Your next four pulls will all be the same two characters.
Congrats on getting sucked into a new addiction!

I think that's true. In one of my first 3 boxes I bought, I pulled the 1/144 loki. Ever since then it's been all commons LOL
I LOVE MAXFOZZY
