Never mind how immoral selling blind box toys to children is, this set is just a grievous example of over-packaging. If the aim is to get a figure, the figure is worth about a quid. It's tiny, little over two inches tall. The walkie talkie doubles as a base and backdrop for the figure, but is also part of the morse code decoding activity to let you guess which figure you have. I found it all rather drab. It's a nice quality mini fig but in no way is either the price or excess packaging warranted in this day and age. Maybe back in the 80s when we didn't know any better, but not now. Should have stayed in the Upside Down. Read more

This was really fun, with the addition of the game and puzzles to solve before the big reveal of which character you have. It was amazing to discover my favourite character within, Dustin. It's great value for money, the quality was good and it now looks great sitting on my bookshelf ready for the new and final season to be released. Read more

At the time of this review you can buy this individual ' stranger things ' character for around £15 I bought a couple of these Stranger Things mystery capsules for my kids (and okay, for myself too), and they were a lot of fun to open! Each capsule looks like a little walkie talkie, and inside there are stickers, a background card, clues, and a mini figure from the show. Solving the anagram puzzle first to reveal which character you got adds a nice interactive touch. The mini figures are small but well-detailed, and the stands and backgrounds make them great for displaying on a shelf. It’s also nice that you can collect all eight characters, which keeps it exciting for fans. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is that, like most mystery toys, it’s easy to get duplicates — and they’re a bit pricey if you’re trying to complete the whole set. From this seller you can buy the whole set together but strangely that is slightly more expensive than buying them individually, £14.99 x 8 = £119.92 but the set is £119.99 at the time of this review , i think they need to review the price of the whole set to appeal to collectors and sell more.. Still, it’s a great collectible and gift idea for any Stranger Things fan who loves a bit of mystery and nostalgia. If you have a favourite character you can just buy one piece .. If you are thinking of buying one i would recommend it, i hope you find the review helpful Read more

This is a high-quality collectable box that is really nice for children or teenagers. When you first open the walkie-talkie, you see a few envelopes of quizzes and puzzles. The product is of great quality. I found the character to be made incredibly well, and I love the games you get with it. The product opens up and becomes a really nice stand for the character you get, I also really appreciate the size of the item. You also get a miniature Arial you can put on top of the item. I would definitely recommend this product; it is definitely of value. Read more

Can't say surprise things are that great but its understandable it'd be so to some extent given there are characters that may otherwise get pretty ignored and there is an option to get the full set (though admittedly it starts getting pricey). The gimmick of these is pretty interesting with everything being encased in a plastic walkie talkie shaped shell that can be halved to become a character stand with some small puzzles of sorts that let you work out the character you got before you open its bag which is a nice touch. Though it was a little awkward that the extras are too big to be hidden inside the background part of the walkie talkie while you are using it as the stand so you kinda just have to put them elsewhere or hide them underneath it. I also thankfully do like the character that I got from this particular set. As for pricing it makes sense for a smaller collectible item so it could be recommendable as a gift or for those that enjoy the randomness of it though admittedly I personally wouldn't recommend anyone to chase after the full set (especially when you factor in the existence of 2 other previous sets).
