Loot Crate June 2016 "Dystopia" Unboxing, plus this month's Pop in a Box.

Loot Crate actually arrived fairly early this month (although I started this post and forgot about it, so I'm posting late), so here it is!

It's the first time I've documented a blind Loot Crate unboxing, I've usually opened it with the wife and then gone back to it later to talk about the contents. Get it in your eyes and ears boys and girls.


Not a bad box really, I still can't get over that T-Shirt, I love it. Made myself promise to wait until I go on Holiday in September before I wear it, but after that I'm living in it. Providing it doesn't immediately shrink like the Bill and Ted shirt did.

Here's the T2 print thing on my newly christened Terminator shelf, with the VHS box set I mentioned in the video, and the rubber Genisys skull from a previous Crate:


And here's the Fallout Dorbz, along with the other two that my wife received from Pop in a Box this month purely by coincidence, in our miniature living room Fallout shrine. I'm waiting to see what comes from Pop in a Box this month, and if it's not the other two Fallout guys (the male Vault Dweller and a Super Mutant), I'm just gonna buy them.

ZBox Unboxing: Two Mystery Welcome Boxes

So when I signed up with ZBox, Zavvi's Loot Crate contender, there were a couple of deals on for new subscribers. There were the usual discount codes, but I opted for two mystery boxes to go with my first month, absolutely FREE. At £19.99, three boxes full of stuff seemed too good to pass up. My first monthly box appeared first, which I covered in my previous post.

Then a couple of days later, the other two boxes arrived. Check out how I got on.


There were a few things in the box that the video didn't do justice to. Firstly, that Pacman figure that I so casually cast aside, once removed from the packaging and having the weird accessories taken away from him, actually looked pretty nice, just a bluee tinted regular Pac, and blue happens to be my favourite colour. Here he is on what I call "The Shelf of Console Harmony".


And here's a pic of the three Pixel Bricks guys, the Ryu money box and the Sub-Zero plushie, with that Donatello Leonado Funko Fabrication from this month's Mutate box. In before anyone else, I know I need to dust more.


On an interesting note, I gave my extra Tails (heh) to my Brother-in-Law Ross, and while I was with him he all but rage quit on putting it together. When I got home I made Ken, which was easy. Blanka was a bit more challenging, but still simple. "Hah" I scoffed, "That was too easy, he was just being a bitch!". Then I picked up my Tails (heh). Whoever put together that model is a dick.

Lastly, for those who didn't/can't/won't watch, here's everything in there:
