Is it possible to trace the surprise included in the Kinder Easter egg?
Good evening.
I have an Easter egg branded "Kinder" that includes a Pokémon character as a surprise.
I seem to have learned that with the codes on the packaging, it is possible to find out which character is inside.
(EAN?) 8000500285084
(Other code) L041KAC - BC
Thanks

·1 year agoRegarding the code issue, one could do some "reverse engineering" and maybe online you can find forums or groups of enthusiasts who, once they have opened the egg, share all the information on the labels, as is done for weighing eggs.
Even though I think the EAN code simply corresponds to the Pokemon product and not to the character inside, in my opinion there is a unique Pokemon EAN code.
I don't think the other code tells you what character is inside either.
I don't believe there is an external code that identifies the surprise because it would be extremely easy to share.
But I could also be wrong.......

You can also use the scale in the fruit section, but watch out not to get caught by the staff.

·1 year agoWell yes, it’s possible with the code stamped in the expiration date area.
But to find out what the egg contains you have at least three options:
- Contact an excellent hacker, pay them handsomely, then convince them to access Ferrero’s internal database and, knowing where to look, track down the relevant section.
- Have a friend/acquaintance employed at Ferrero in the right office that handles these things and (obviously) have access to the database mentioned above. Obviously you’ll have to pay them generously...
- Equip yourself with a scanner like the ones at airport gates: however, it has to be state-of-the-art, capable of reconstructing the contents of the egg in 3D with simulated colors. New, it doesn’t cost much: for around 35,000 euros you should be able to buy one.
See what suits you best... Happy Easter!

I know some people use the technique of weighing the surprises.
Depending on the weight, it “might” correspond to a character.
In short: you buy a surprise, take it home, and before opening it you weigh it with a very precise electronic scale.
You note the weight and then open the egg.
Then when you go back to the supermarket you bring the scale with you and weigh the eggs, and set aside the egg with the same weight because it probably corresponds to the first character you bought.
