I love blindpack toys. That's about it. They're EVERYWHERE, even Barbie gets some. Without further stalling..
First is from My Little Pony Mystery Bag Series 1; Sweetie Blue. It's a blue pony that isn't Rainbow Dash! I like the colors. They're bright and lovely.
Incidentally I would like to point out, the blindpack bags no longer bare numbers on the seam which would normally tell you which figure is inside. In other words, Hasbro caught on to the fact people were using that as a hint, so they took it away. But hey, it means everything is a legit surprise now! I just... will probably wait for the next series to come along now to avoid doubles.

Despite expectations, the wear on the figure is surprisingly very nicely done, my only complaint is how awful the left glove looks, as you'll see in the picture it has some bad battle damage to it. That aside, it's a neat figure. The water bow weapon is also nicely sculpted. This figure is an example of the neat things that can come from blindpack Power Rangers figures; battle damage variants.
Last we have something from the LEGO Minifigures Series 5; Gangster! Not the kind with low pants and gold, but with pinstripes and violin cases. Absolutely brilliant.
He comes with this fantastic little case which not only opens up, but you can also hide his pistol inside of it, it's the perfect size. I also really like the expression they gave him. You get a lot of character out of the face, with the little bits of wrinkles painted on. The pinstripes are pretty solid as well.
So yeah - What is there to say? I love these mystery bags. They're cheap and great fun. I cannot give any recommendations here other than... Gangster is full of win. Go for the gangster. Do it. Do it now. Go.
I have no idea when I'll have new content, we'll see!
