Loot Crate Unboxing (Feb. 2015)

Hey guys, 

Today I have another unboxing post for you, this time it is for Loot Crate! Loot Crate is a monthly subscription service primarily for gamers, so I purchased this as a 3-month subscription for my boyfriends birthday! Loot Crate is $13.95 per month plus $6 for shipping, so you really end up paying about $20 per box, but I have a coupon code that anyone can use down at the bottom of this post to get you a few bucks off! The theme for this months box was "play", approximate prices will be listed beside each item. 


My boyfriend was enjoying a tasty sandwich from a local establishment and decided to include it in the photo!

  • Ready Player One Novel by Ernest Cline [$9]- This book sounded really cool to me (an avid book reader), but I think my boyfriend was probably a little disappointed by this because hes a gamer and isn't really into books. 
  • Collectible Loot Crate Pin for February 2015 [$3] - I think Loot Crate includes these in all of their crates and people collect them, online I found them to be priced at around $3, so people must be really into collecting them
  • Waka-Waka Poster (Manny Peters) [$3-$5] - I personally felt like this was kind of a filler in the crate. It was a tiny little poster, but maybe some people really like collecting this type of thing?

  • DIY Munny Figure (Kid Figure) [$13-$20] - This is a small figurine that comes with markers so you can draw on it and create anything you want! Kind of a cool concept because when you are finished you can wipe him off and start over if you want!
  • Hex Bug [$10-$15] - This is what my boyfriend was the most excited about, it is a small robot bug that has sensors and will scuttle around on the floor while dodging some objects. I say SOME objects because its sensors only seem to detect large objects, you could not set this thing on an obstacle course. 

  • Exclusive Looter Edition SuperFight Card Game (Skybound Games) [$10] - Neither my boyfriend nor I had ever heard of the SuperFight Card Game, but we both found it pretty amusing. Apparently it is becoming a very popular game where you combine the cards to make funny fighting situations between characters in popular shows and movies. 
  • Exclusive Rock-Paper-Scissors Dice Game (Loot Crate Labs) [$3-$5]- These dice were a part of the game you could play on the board you see in the picture. The board is the actual Loot Crate box unfolded into a board. The dice are essentially the game rock-paper-scissors!
  • Exclusive Firefly Online Premium Shop Unlock Code (Quantum Mechanix) [$5?] - This is an unlock code for a new online game called Firefly. This was on a card included in the box and is not in the picture above. Looks like it unlocks a pretty awesome ship to use in game play. 

In total, given the approximate prices that I was able to find online, this crate is worth $56-$72. Either way, that is far above the $13.95 price tag and the $6 shipping. So, if you are looking for a high-value, bang for your buck, gaming box, this is certainly an option to consider! I thought this box was super fun to open and my boyfriend really seemed to enjoy all of his new nerd goodies! If you would like to purchase your own Loot Crate you can click here.
