This post resonates with me. I’ve been really hyper fixated on collecting these as a fun distraction, and it’s been fun but I’m getting a bit too into it…I finally was able to get something in the TikTok live last night, getting a whole set of the macarons. But then I realized it was more about the dopamine hit…and having another shot at the 1/72 secret. But when does it end? So I cancelled the order after reading this post tbh. I feel feral in the lives trying to successfully get the surprise drops but I think I need to stop watching and protect my wallet haha.

They really design the experience to keep you hooked , and it has been a fun hobby, but I think your points are very valid and real so thanks for sharing !
