See inside before you buy. OpenCrate scans the printed code on a sealed blind-bag minifig pack and tells you exactly which figure is inside — before you open it. Already own it? You'll know. Independent app, built for collectors of plastic construction-brick sets. No ads, no engagement traps. The app does its job and gets out of your way. WHAT IT DOES • Scan sealed blind-bag minifig packs — see the figure before you open it • Cross-check every scan against your collection so you never buy the same figure twice • Search tens of thousands of sets and minifigs, on-device • Lists for what you own, what you want, and what you're hunting this weekend • Scan history kept on your phone HOW IT WORKS 1. Open the scanner — one big button on the home screen. 2. Point your camera at the printed code on the pack. 3. See the figure name, image, and whether it's already in your crate. Three taps. One answer. Move on. BUILT FOR THE AISLE, NOT THE DESK OpenCrate exists to answer one question, fast, in the place you need it answered: standing in a toy aisle holding a sealed pack, trying to figure out if it's the one missing from your collection. The catalog lives on your device, so search works instantly — even on bad store wifi. PRIVACY No ad networks. No third-party trackers. No selling your activity.
