Video review for people on the move.
So… Another
Nerd Block. Mostly because the fact that it was curated by Kevin Smith and have
a super hero theme. How could I pass it up? Now for those of you who are unfamiliar
with that a subscription box is, it is the bags you usually get at conventions
and trade shows, but actually filled with good stuff and not just pens… and sent
to your door once a month. I have unboxed a few of these already and feel free
to check them out.
So the
first thing I looked at was the T-shirt. Nerdblock have a shirt in each boc and
they are usually pretty awesome. This one was imply awesome beyond words if one
happen to be a Kevin Smith fan. It features Jay and Silent Bob as Batman and Robin.
Now Kevin Smith is perhaps the biggest Batman fan I have heard about and have
on several occasions incorporated Batman in to his on-screen persona Silent Bob
such as the famous utility belt and the very meta in-universe comic versions of
Jay and silent bob called “Bluntman & Chronic”… Yes… Fun fact… Kevin Smith
was in fact not a weed smoker when he wrote his stoner jokes… But has since
picked up the habit.
Next up is
a very clear VS item with the biggest names in DC and Marvel facing off. These
now sit on my backpack because honestly… Fuck growing up boring. They are nice pins but also just pins. Not
the big ticket item.
SmodCo stickers,
this was a expeted item but I am happy non the less. It is a stickersheet with
various Kevin Smith productions on it such as fatman on batman…Not as pervy as
it sounds… and his new movie called Tusk. Not bad, mostly as shipping for stuff
like this to Sweden would be insane normally compared to the price of the
product.
Arkham Asylum Post-It pad is absolutely adorable but I
am a bit sad there is no special printing on the sticky notes them self. Still
it is a very cool little office item and I has been claimed by H and I think it
will fit perfect on H´s desk. That place is a mad house to begin with.
Now for the
second to best item in the box. A pack of trading cards replicating the ones
that agent Coulson carried in the Avengers. They seem to be a bit scaled down
but they claim it is a prop replica so I will take their word for it. It will
look awesome on my shelf and if I ever get a chance to meet Clark Gregg or
Chris Evans I will have them sign them for me.
Next to
last we have an I think Windwaker… Mascot dangler for your phone, bag or
intimate piercing. I got link holding a urn… I admit... I have not played
Windwaker… I fail as a human being.
And the big
ticket item this month is a Funko POP! Vinyl of Deadpool. Unmasked and creepy
as usual. Thanks to these boxes there is a small collection of bobble heads
building in my home, so far we have Groot and now Deadpool. Very nice indeed.
So that was
it, I think I got good value out of this box and to be honest I never get them
for the value, I get them for the fact that it is Christmas every month. My
inner child just bounce around like a maniac every month. I am still not sure
how the Windwaker figure fit in to it all but hey, it is still a cute little
dangler… and that somehow feels very familiar.
Take care
and be safe.
