CultureFly Discontinues The Nick Box

CultureFly recently sent out an email (above) to current Nick Box subscribers. This is a total bummer for those of us that really loved the retro/nostalgia of the 90's early 2000's era of Nickelodeon. It's sad but at the same time the subscription box scene has not been to what it once was. CultureFly will still be making Nickelodeon items such as the Reptar figure collaboration with James Groman.

The Nick Box Treasure & Treats Unboxing

The Nick Box Treasure & Treats Unboxing for October 2017. This came towards the end of October/Early November so hopefully everyone who wanted this box was able to get one. They had these still available for a good amount of time before their new box went up for sale which is scheduled to be shipping in December.

We absolutely LOVE The Nick Box! We love the box that it comes in. It's a cool treasure chest featuring classic Nick characters. The great thing about The Nick Box is that it comes wrapped in plastic, well most of it so when they put the shipping label on the box, it won't damage the box. The box is so cool and you can't throw it away!

Check the pictures below for more views of the box and of course the contents inside!
