A Lockbox is a type of usable. All available types of these boxes are "locked," requiring a Key to be opened, unlike a Prize Box. Many of these boxes share potential prizes with other lockboxes. Possible prizes are usually accessories.

Notes

"Prize Wheel" lockboxes have an increased chance of being obtained from the end-of-level prize wheel for a time after the player opens one. This applies for all types of lockboxes in the prize wheel.

The Mirrored Lockbox is the only lockbox that was also part of a promotion and therefore able to be directly purchased. Its prize pool features usables. All other lockboxes originate randomly from prize wheels.

The topic of this article or section is subject to personal opinion, and does not represent any one absolute truth. If you disagree, discuss your concerns on the the talk page before editing.: It is likely that the availability of the Iron Lockbox has been phased out of the game by the monthly lockboxes, considering that the Iron Lockbox does not have a slot in the monthly rotation and most of its possible prizes are spread across the pools of the other six. On the other hand, Iron Lockboxes have been obtained from the prize wheel during the few moments that span the transition between one month's box and the next. It certainly remains in the game as an item - numerous Iron Lockboxes remain unbound in player inventories.

Calendar

The Mirrored Lockbox is always in the pool of the prize wheel as a very rare prize, along with one of six other lockboxes. This other lockbox is part of a yearly cycle. It is replaced on the first of each successive month by the next lockbox. Over a year, each of these six is seen for two months.

This calendar represents a predicted pattern based on monthly observations:
