And a Loot Crate

Loot Crate is a company that sends you a box of random "nerd/geek" stuff once a month. Imagine a beer or coffee of the month club. I've liked some of their past crates and have wanted to try them for awhile. Groupon recently had a deal for a one month subscription for $10. They also had a coupon for $5 towards any Groupon purchase if you played a little game on their Facebook page. I bit and decided to try it out. Each month has a theme and December's was "Anniversary." It also promised to be one of their biggest ever. I knew Ghostbusters and Batman both had big anniversaries this year (30 and 75 respectively) so I was pretty pumped. My crate came today and I thought I'd show you guys what I got.

First off, we have a Joker-Batman figure. I like the colors and design. It's certainly not your typical Batman figure. Apparently it's a Loot Crate exclusive.

Next we have Groot socks. I'm going to be giving these to my sister for Christmas.

Then we have a sweet Simpsons Mighty Wallet. I'd never heard of Mighty Wallet before but apparently they are tough wallets that you can stuff and stuff and it won't break (more details here). It has two inside pockets, two "cash" seperated areas, and two outside slots. I would hate for stuff to slip out but I'm switching over to this wallet immediately.

This was a little booklet explaining the loot in said crate.

I was really hoping for something more robust for Ghostbusters since it's one of my all time favorite franchises. All I got was a door hanger.

Next we have a Batman comic. I don't know if the comic itself is exclusive to Loot Crate or if it's just an exclusive cover.

Some Tetris stickers. Kinda neat.

An Avengers Assemble Captain America air freshener. I was hoping it smelled like freedom, but it says vanilla. Oh well.

Some deal coupon for Loot Crate customers for Crunchy Roll, which I'm pretty sure is like Netflix for anime.

They included a mini candy cane for Christmas. I thought it was pretty cool.

Here's the inside of the box which you can use with the Batman figure to play around in.

That's it. I don't know if I'll continue my subscription with Loot Crate. It costs ~$15 a month and I just don't know if it's worth it. What do you guys think?
