Mini Brands mystery toys

I knew Mini Brands mystery capsules existed, but I'd never come across them in my travels, at least not until Christmas Eve. I was last minute, panic buying Seth a gift at his favorite RC hobby shop, and I happened to look over at the impulse purchase items next to the cash register.

Crap.
I bought a couple, but didn't crack into them until today.
Unwrap, peel and reveal!
Not going to lie - I enjoyed this way more than I should have.
And look at all these toys!
Scale is a little bit random, but most of these will fit nicely into a 1:9 scale hobby room. I especially like the Robo Alive reptile!
I haven't decided yet if this was a good or bad discovery, but I have a feeling it won't be long before I visit that hobby shop again!

  1. Will you be doing more namopaimo article how to s in this coming year? I have a small collection and no resins or a barn(working on that๐Ÿ˜‰) , but I want to get into the painting side of the hobby. Also, where to you get resin seconds for super cheap? And what are your recommended mediums? What scale should I start in? Yesterday, I did a resculpt on a spirit toy with air dry clay. Well, the package says to smooth out with water, and it looked really good to me, I was really pleased with myself....and then it dried. It cracked everywhere☹️. And it had looked so good to me. My first resculpt. Sigh. Still keeping it, though. At least I know I can sculpt now!๐Ÿ™‚. What would you recommend? Thanks!
