Blind-box figures
Sealed series figures, the category that built this whole market. Licensed, and with the maker named on the card.
The shelf · by origin
Where it is from is the first thing about it.
The shelf is arranged by country rather than by category, because a Taipei illustrator's acrylic and a Tokyo capsule charm are not the same object. Four origins, and the maker named on every card.

Cherry Wardrobe · drawn here, made here
Three of these shelves come from makers abroad. The fourth is drawn in Britain and carries its own label rather than the Crazy Cherry logo, because a shop that makes its own pieces should say which ones they are.

About these categories
Every card on this shelf names the country a piece comes from and the maker or studio behind it, before it says anything else. If we cannot say where something came from, we do not carry it - which is why this shop is arranged by origin and not by price.
Not sure where to start?
The box is where the finds land first.
One curated box, three themes, and the minimum value of what is inside printed next to the price. It is the fastest way to meet a shelf you have not met before.
