Above all things, never be afraid. The enemy who forces you to retreat is himself afraid of you at that very moment.

In what way were Beanie Babies Gacha/loot boxes? I never heard of them being suprise/mystery boxed.

They weren't. At least not the original ones in the 90s. There were some that were limited edition, where only certain stores got them, or were produced in limited quantity, but they weren't random.

They always had toys like this. These came in a bag. What you got was luck of the draw.

yes at the mercy of the employee picking out the toy from the box for the happy meal.

unless it was release week where it's pre-determined by 1-2 different toys.

I heard that there's a actual legit gacha mechanic when purchasing one. You hit purchase and it immediately tells you what you got so you can keep trying for a rare one.
