Two Thumbs Up for Marvel Collector Corps Avengers: Age of Ultron Debut Box

Another Subscription? Seems like there's so many different subscription boxes out now. We were a bit skeptical on signing up for the Marvel Collector Corps which is powered by Funko in collaboration with Marvel. First the good news is that this subscription is not monthly but bi-monthly and because it's Marvel, there will be a theme for each box and the April Debut box is Avengers: Age of Ultron. Forgot to also say that this arrived on National Superhero Day and before the Avengers: Age of Ultron Movie comes out in Theaters which was great timing!

The next box coming out in June will be Ant-Man Themed. With shipping costs & tax the box costs a bit over $30.The box is pretty big and bulky. Love the shipping box graphics. More pics of the box below as well as a pictoral unboxing.

Flophouse TMNT Pizza Box

Picked up this TMNT Pizza Box from Flophouse during Comikaze last year. What we love about Flophouse is their packaging design for their products. How clever is this? Flophouse has a lot of great merchandise for sale but for now we'll just talk about this cool Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Pizza Box and the contents inside. Look at all the attention to details that they put into each side of the box.

REWIND - Loot Crate - January 2015

Loot Crate's theme for January 2015 is REWIND. Yep, let's rewind back into the past with Nintendo, Star Wars, Voltron, 8-Bit Glasses etc...

Comikaze Expo 2014 Recap

Comikaze this year was bigger and better this year. Lots to see and do. We arrived on Friday, the first day of the convention. Parking was a breeze. Unfortunately this year, we were pressed for time as there were so many events going on within the first 2 weeks of November and unfortunately we don't live in Southern California. If only these events were spread out a bit more.

The show was bigger. If you missed out on seeing Stan Lee's Museum collection the previous years, it was there again this year.

Hot Topic had the main stage and was a major sponsor again this year. They had their own booth with exclusive Funko POP! vinyl figures. Dave & Busters was also there this year for the first time. The video game museum which showcases all the old retro video games were back again.

Right when you walk into the convention lobby, you're greeted with a huge Big Hero 6 Baymax. Disney had a small booth where you could enter to win a Baymax figure and also a spinning wheel where you can win prizes from Big Hero 6.

One of the booths that we had to stop at was the Flophouse booth. They have some amazing products and their packaging is unique and top notch. Currently they have only been selling at conventions but they recently announced that they will open their online store soon.

There were quite a few exhibitors that were similar to Loot Crate. We found Boxychan (themed mystery boxes) and My Geeky Goodies (has either a POP! vinyl figure or a geek/nerd t-shirt). We haven't tried out any other services besides Loot Crate. They are all pretty similar. 

If you're in the LA area, it's definitely a show worth going to. Check out some pics we took from the show! Enjoy!
