Avatars

Search Tips

Search for a unique word in a known Avatar Collection name or browse thumbnails.

All Collections Page

To open all Avatar collections use the Avatar button at the top of the page, or scroll to the Avatars row and click the Explore Avatar Collections button on the right.

There, you'll find featured collections that you can mint now.

Two Collection Types

• Sandbox Originals, which are original and licensed avatars created by The Sandbox.

• External Avatars, or Sandbox-compatible avatars based on external NFT collections.

Click the Discover More button on the right to see all collections or click on a thumbnail to open one.

Collections with a minting now indicator will include Avatars that have already started minting and are revealed, or allow you to mint Avatars that have not been revealed yet for a low price.

Specific Collection Page

By clicking a thumbnail to open a collection page, you'll be able to select filters with the dropdown on the left. This displays all of the traits unique to the specific collection you are viewing and is similar to filtering on OpenSea in external NFT collections.

The Collection Info box in the top right includes the Public Link for full details about the collection, minting status, and a button to mint an Avatar if it's not sold out or view the collection on OpenSea to purchase one if it is.

Find Specific Avatars to View on OpenSea

When you find an Avatar you want to buy or make an offer on, click it to open it directly on OpenSea.

Another Option to Explore Avatars

Sign in to your account on The Sandbox website and click on your username to open a menu of options. Click on "Change Avatar" to access your Avatars page.

The Shop tab includes Sandbox Originals and External Collections, with all of a selected Avatar's traits listed on the right as you browse. Select an Avatar to view it, and find buttons on the bottom right to mint, buy now, or make offer depending on the status of the avatar you've selected.

See How to Buy NFTs for information about having funds available to cover the cost of your purchase and the gas fee if this is your first transaction.

Entities

Search Tips

Use general keywords, materials, object types, themes, or a unique word in the name of a known asset in the search bar. Examples: stone, building, sword, platform, steampunk, mythic, etc.

Filtering and Sorting

Filter on the left by Blockchain, Catalyst (Rarity), Categories, or Tags (including custom tags added by asset creators).

Sort on the right by name, when made available, price, or available quantity.

Equipment

Search Tips

Search for a general word for an equipment type or browse thumbnails to discover unique options that may not appear by search, such as auras that animate around the avatar or animations made for a certain body area.

Since equipment names rarely include the slot, you can apply a filter by slot to see only assets for that slot. You can also open the page for an Equipment asset to see which slot it is assigned to.

Filtering and Sorting

Filter on the left by Blockchain, Catalyst (Rarity), Slot, Attributes, Categories, or Tags (including custom tags added by asset creators).

Sort by name, when made available, price, or available quantity.

LAND & Estates

LAND coordinates are not available to look up via search, and there is no filtering at this time. However, you can sort by lowest price, newest, and oldest.

A Great Way to Search for LAND

The metaverse Map is a great way to visualise the location of LAND, which is an important factor in its value, while looking at what LANDs are available to purchase.

The Map also offers excellent filtering options and provides more details in a window when selected, including a link to the LAND's OpenSea details to buy or make an offer.

3. Verify That You Have Enough SAND

Click on the SAND icon on the top bar to open a small window for a quick summary of your available SAND on the Ethereum and Polygon blockchains. You can also sign into your third party wallet directly.

4. Verify How the Gas Fee Will be Covered

About Gas Fees

Blockchain transactions include a "gas fee." Visit Web3 & The Sandbox to learn more about blockchain transactions.

If you do not have Gasless Transactions available via your Wallet Settings, the gas fee must be paid with POL (formerly MATIC). Make sure you purchase it on the correct blockchain network.

Ethereum Blockchain

Transactions on The Sandbox Marketplace are no longer processed on the Ethereum blockchain. If you are purchasing assets on a secondary marketplace such as OpenSea, you may need to purchase with Ethereum if the NFTs were not migrated to the Polygon blockchain.

5. Sign Transaction

Once you've verified you have all of the items you want in your cart and the currency you need to purchase them, click the Buy Now button. This will trigger your wallet to open so you can sign your transaction.

If you are experiencing issues with your transaction, visit the FAQs: Marketplace section of our Marketplace FAQs page.
