It’s time for another haul of the ultimate geek subscription box, Loot Crate!
Loot Crate is a monthly mystery crate for gamers, geeks and fans of pop culture, delivering cool (and often exclusive!) items like collectibles, t‑shirts, gadgets and more. There’s a $45+ value in every crate!
The Loot:
The theme for this month’s box was power. Great theme. Whoever is picking out the themes is on a roll. Also, I think this month’s Loot Crate Magazine totally won for my favorite one so far. Why? The intro includes the line, But remember: with crate power comes crate responsibility. Puns for the win! Plus, there’s a really fun interview with one of the stars, Robert Kazinsky from the highly anticipated Warcraft film which releases June 10, 2016. So what was inside this box?
- Hulk Q-Fig (QMx)
As a Hulk fan, I was excited to see this included in the box and think it’s the absolutely perfect pick for a box that has the theme of power. This is easily my favorite figure that I’ve received so far from Loot Crate.
- Exclusive Warcraft T-shirt (Legendary)
I’m not a gamer but I’m not living under a rock either and know how exciting getting a licensed World of Warcraft t-shirt is. Part of me wants to wear this shirt but another part of me thinks I should give it away to a true WOW fan at SDCC. Only time will tell!
- Exclusive Dragon Ball Z Shenron Plush Keychain (Surreal Entertainment)
I was never a Dragon Ball Z fan and don’t know the first thing about it so I actually had no idea what this plush keychain (pretty big for a keychain) was until I read the details in the Loot Crate Magazine. But I like plush goodies so hopefully there’s more where that came from, Loot Crate!
- Exclusive Infinity Gauntlet Oven Mitt (ICUP, INC)
UPDATE: This item has been recalled!
This year, I’ve gotten more into cooking than I ever have before. I’ve come to a place where I actually like cooking. Whaaaatttt. I know, right! So to say that I shrieked with joy and did a little dance when I saw this oven mitt in the box is me being as transparent as I can possibly be in describing the unboxing of this month’s loot. This is great.
- Battleborn Pin (Loot Crate Labs)
Since I’m not a gamer, I have no idea what Battleborn is but based on what I read in Loot Crate Magazine, it looks like fun. In an alternate reality where I am a gamer, I think I might actually really like this game.
- Loot Crate Magazine: May 2016
My Favorite Loot In This Box:
- Exclusive Infinity Gauntlet Oven Mitt (ICUP, INC) which unfortunately has been recalled so now I can’t even use it. Bummer!
Stay tuned for coverage on the June box!
