    Don’t know what that is, I assume one of those lucky-dip random toys you get in a little capsule? The main difference with that is you’re physically getting a toy (no matter how crappy) which cost resource to make, whereas “buying” a cosmetic item in a live service video game is paying a company to change a variable (something that costs them essentially nothing) which provides almost nothing tangible to the user.
