As a devoted Hello Kitty fan, I couldn't resist the allure of the Hello Kitty Miniverse blind boxes. They’re adorable, they’re mysterious, and they’re just so Hello Kitty. But with a whole collection of miniatures inside those opaque balls, I only had eyes for two: the Bento Box and the Instant Spicy Noodle Soup. Could I crack the code and find the ones I wanted?
The Game Plan
Blind boxes are meant to be random, but the internet is full of clever collectors sharing tips and tricks to outwit the mystery. Thanks to Meenyminimo’s amazing weight info sheet, I learned that each item in the Hello Kitty Miniverse has a slightly different weight.
According to the chart:
Bento Box: 111.0g
Instant Spicy Noodle Soup: 109.7g
Close matches included the Cream Soda and Cappuccino (109.1g) and the Waffles (108.2g).
It sounded like a long shot, but I decided to give it a try. Armed with a pocket-sized digital scale, I headed to my local Target for a mix of strategy and luck.
Target Adventures: A Collector's Playground
The toy aisle greeted me with a rainbow of blind box balls, each one identical and packed with the promise of surprise. I grabbed my scale, took a deep breath, and started weighing. I weighed each ball, cross-referencing with the chart. Two stood out:
One ball weighed 112g—a close match for the Bento Box.
The second was 110g, slightly above the Instant Spicy Noodle Soup’s weight but within range.
I popped them into my cart, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. After check out, I snagged these two balls and raced home, ready for the big reveal.
The Big Reveal: Hello Kitty Magic!
At home, I started with the 112g ball, hoping it held the Bento Box. I carefully peeled off the layers of packaging, savoring the suspense. And then—jackpot! There it was, the Bento Box, in all its miniature glory.
The details were everything I’d imagined, and I couldn’t believe the strategy worked. As for the 110g ball, the suspense is still alive because I haven’t opened it yet. Could it be the Instant Spicy Noodle Soup, or will it surprise me with something else?
Why the Hello Kitty Miniverse is Worth the Hype
The MGA Miniverse isn’t just about the thrill of collecting; it’s about the joy of discovering tiny, perfect replicas of everyday items. And if you’re willing to do a little sleuthing, you might just turn a blind box into a guaranteed win.
So, here’s my advice for fellow collectors:
Do your homework—find a weight chart online (shoutout to Meenyminimo for the one I used!).
Bring a small scale to the store. Get the scale here if you don't have one. Yes, people might give you curious looks, but who cares?
Trust the process—and enjoy the excitement of the reveal.
Will Luck Strike Twice?
The Bento Box was a dream come true, and now I’m eagerly awaiting the moment I open the 110g ball. Will it be the Instant Spicy Noodle Soup? Stay tuned for part two of my Miniverse adventure!
Spoiler alert: Miniverse isn’t just for kids—adults love and appreciate these tiny collectibles too!
