But now China has learned to. And their vinyl industry is EXPLODING. Just look at what Popmart is doing, they operate at such volume that they can sell pretty big, complex blindboxed sofubi for just $10-20 apiece. And best of all, nobody is fussy about it like they were with the Taco Bell ones. Everyone I know loves Popmart, they make great stuff and do a lot of fun collabs. And they don't feel like some obvious cashgrab corporate thing like Taco Bell did.
