What is My Shelf?
My Shelf is a free collection ledger for blind-box and designer-toy collectors. Every series gets a wall and every design gets a block. Light the blocks you own, mark the ones you want, see what your collection is worth today, and share it all with one link.
The walls cover 2,719 designs across 317 series from 45 brands, including 87 Sonny Angel series, from current releases back to retired, regional and collaboration editions. It lives at ifidea.com/my-shelf and runs in any browser; all you need is an email. IFiDEA is an online collectibles retailer based in Anaheim, California. My Shelf is free and works the same whether or not you ever buy from us; when something you are missing is in stock at IFiDEA, the block simply says so.

Why collectors use My Shelf
See your whole collection at a glance. Most collections end up split between a display shelf, a drawer and a few boxes in the closet. Your wall shows every piece you own in one place, so you never have to dig through boxes to count what you have, or to check whether you already own the one in front of you.
Know exactly what you are missing. Gray blocks are the gaps. One tap adds them all to your Wants, and your Wants can be shared as an image or a link so friends, family and traders know exactly what to look for. No more buying a duplicate by mistake.
A wall that grows with you. Every block you light stays lit, and each one remembers when it came home. Duplicates are counted as spares. Over months and years your wall becomes the story of your collection, not just a list.
What it is worth today. Shelf Worth values each lit design from real completed sales, never asking prices, and tracks the change over the past week. Members can get a Thursday email report. How we calculate it is public.
Every series, including the rare ones. Walls follow the official design lists, secret figures included. For Sonny Angel that means regular and limited series, HIPPERS, gift sets, regional exclusives such as Seoul, Okinawa, Hello Jeju and New York, and collaborations. A secret block shows the figure’s name when it is known, and “???” until a collector helps us confirm it.
Never miss a release. Drop Radar is a release and pre-order calendar for new blind-box and figure releases, so you hear about the next series before it sells out.
Trade spares with other collectors. Shelf Swap matches your spares with collectors who want them and have what you want. Member badges state facts we record, such as completed orders and tracked shipments, never opinions. Swap is for adults (18+).
One link to share. Your Shelfie (ifidea.com/shelf/your-name) shows your whole collection on one page, made for an Instagram bio or for family asking what to get you. One switch makes it private.
A gift list your family can actually use. A wish list makes gift-giving easy, the same way a wedding or housewarming registry does. Your Wants page (ifidea.com/shelf/your-name/wants) works like a registry for your collection: every character you are hoping for, with its picture and series name. Send it to family before a birthday or the holidays. Nobody has to learn which figure is which. They can show the page at the toy store, and the person helping them sees right away which series you are still collecting and which blind boxes are worth a try.
Ways people use My Shelf
The birthday list for Mom. Your mom wants to get you a Sonny Angel but cannot tell one from another. You text her your Wants link. At the store she shows it to the clerk, who spots the series with the most gray blocks and suggests which boxes to try. No guessing, no duplicates, and no explaining secret figures over the phone.
Checking before you buy. You are standing in front of a blind-box display. Open your wall: the series you already finished, the one that still has the most gaps, and whether that figure on the shelf is one you already own.
Parents keeping track for a young collector. Your child collects, and the grandparents keep asking what to buy. A Shelf keeps the whole collection in one place, and the Wants page answers the question for everyone.
Half the collection is in storage. After a move, or when the display shelf is full, pieces end up in boxes. They still show on the wall, so you always know what you have without unpacking anything.
Trading with a friend. Before a meetup, you and a friend open each other’s Shelfies. Your spares, their wants, and the other way around: you both walk in knowing exactly what to trade.
Surprising a collector friend. Open their Shelfie before you shop. The gray blocks are the figures they do not have yet.
How it works
- Create your Shelf with an email. There is no app to install.
- Open a brand, pick a series and tap the designs you own. Orders at IFiDEA light their blocks automatically.
- Mark your wants, share your Shelfie, and check what your collection is worth.
Built with collectors
Accuracy comes first. We build each wall from the official design list and the maker’s own announcements, then from collector records, and we mark anything that is not confirmed. Every series page has a “Spot a mistake or something missing? Tell us” box. Our team checks every note, and when a fix is accepted, the collector who sent it hears back from us.
What My Shelf is not
It is not a marketplace that holds your money: swaps and “Let it go” deals are between members, and IFiDEA only finds the match and keeps the record. It does not authenticate figures. Swap safely explains how to trade with care.
Questions people ask
How do I track my collection?
Create a Shelf with just an email, pick a brand wall (Sonny Angel, SMISKI, POP MART, Fools Paradise, Animal Heavenly Body and more) and tap the designs you own to light them up. Every order at IFiDEA lights its block automatically. Each block keeps a count, so duplicates show as spares.
Is My Shelf free? Do I need an app?
It is free, and there is no app to install. My Shelf runs in any web browser on your phone or computer; all you need to create a Shelf is an email address.
What am I missing from a series?
Open the series wall on My Shelf: lit blocks are what you own, gray blocks are what you are missing. Tap “Want all missing” to add the gaps to your Wants, then share your Wants as an image or a link so friends and traders know exactly what you are looking for.
Can I share a wish list with family for gifts?
Yes. Your Wants page (ifidea.com/shelf/your-name/wants) shows every character you are hoping for, with its picture and series name, so it works like a gift registry for your collection. Family members can show it at a toy store, and whoever helps them can see which series you are collecting and which blind boxes to try. You can also share it as a single image.
How many Sonny Angel series are on My Shelf?
The Sonny Angel wall currently covers 87 series: regular, limited and HIPPERS series, gift sets, regional exclusives such as Seoul, Okinawa, Hello Jeju and New York, and retired series going back to 2014. We add more in batches. Each wall lists the official designs plus the secret figures.
What is a secret figure?
Most blind-box series include one or more rare figures that are not shown on the box, called secrets. A Sonny Angel series usually has a secret Sonny Angel and a Robby Angel. On My Shelf, a secret block shows the figure’s name when it is known and “???” when nobody has confirmed it yet.
How do you keep the information accurate?
We build each wall from the official design list and the maker’s own announcements first, then from collector records, and we mark anything that is not confirmed. Every series page has a “Spot a mistake or something missing? Tell us” box. Our team checks every note, and when a fix is accepted, the person who sent it hears back from us.
Can you add a series that is not on My Shelf?
Yes. Request it from your Shelf and we add the official design list, including secrets, so the wall matches the real box. We keep walls for both current and retired series.
What is my collection worth?
Shelf Worth values every lit design from real completed sales only — recorded market sales and IFiDEA sales — using a median, so one unusual sale can’t swing it. If there are not enough sales we say “not enough data” instead of inventing a number.
Can I trade my spares?
Yes. Shelf Swap matches you with collectors who have your wants as spares and want your spares, and both sides ship to each other directly with tracking. IFiDEA finds the match and keeps the record; it does not hold money and is not a party to the deal. Swap is for adults (18+).
Is my Shelf public?
Your Shelfie (ifidea.com/shelf/your-name) is public by default so you can put it in your bio; one switch makes it private. Your name is a dice roll — no real names, no email, no location ever shown.
