Detective Pikachu Activation Recap

The line was always long for the Detective Pikachu activation. We decided on one of the days to get in line there early instead of getting in line for the exhibit hall. It was pretty much just a walk through of the movie. At the end you get to spin a wheel to try and win prizes. You get something either way but if you landed on a yellow spot, you'd get the coveted Detective Pikachu ears and it has the little Detective hat too! You also got 2 plastic rings. If you landed on another color, you would get a Detective Pikachu comic book and 2 plastic rings.

Loot Crate - September 2015 - SUMMON

The September Loot Crate's Theme is SUMMON. This box had a mixture of different things. Let's just start with the Pokemon Pikachu Laplander Hat. This was the first thing we saw when we opened our box. The next thing was Kidrobot's The Simpsons Gold Homer Budda Vinyl Figure.

Next is a Loot Crate exclusive Supernatural 1967 Chevy Impala Diecast car by Greenlight Collectibles. Then we see a Hearthstone Foam Stress Ball and Collectible Coin and Card Pack Code. Of course the monthly magazine and button.

Also included is a flyer to download the mobile game app for Loot Crate's Master Summoner game. The box this month when turned inside out can be used to interact with the game.

Overall this just was not a really exciting box for us personally but you know everyone has different tastes in what they collect or like etc...
