Subscription boxes are some of my favourite pieces of blogger mail to receive as I just love the mystery of opening the boxes to reveal the contents! I've reviewed numerous subscription boxes on my blog already from food and beauty boxes to wax melts, crafting and lifestyle boxes. One box that I review consistently on my blog is the amazing DegustaBox and if you are looking for more of my subscription box reviews then check out All Subscription Boxes as I review boxes there as well.
*My Geek Box - January 2019 (from £17.99)
One box that I always love to receive and one that is a little unusual (in the very best way) is the My Geek Box. I've been reviewing them on the All Subscription Boxes website for a while but I will also be reviewing the boxes on my blog as well now. The boxes come nicely packaged, I love the simple box design and there are always a great range of items in the box, in terms of the fandoms included and the category of the items.
The January box contained so many items, even more so than usual! One item that I always love to receive in subscription boxes are mystery boxes and there are not one, not two but three within this box which I was very happy to see! The first and most personally exciting mystery box is The Simpsons box which contains a cute keyring. I received a stick of radioactive waste keyring from the nuclear plant (if you didn't know, The Simpsons is one of my all time favourite TV shows).
The other two mystery boxes are from Kidrobot (which is a character I am not familiar with at all) and a Marvel Spiderman mystery box which contained a cute (well as cute as Venom can be), Venom plushie. Usually mystery boxes contain keyring or vinyl figurine but I'm glad that there's a plushie in one of the boxes.
There are two wearable items within the box, we typically receive one in the form of a t-shirt but within the January box, there was a pair of socks from the manga/anime Death Note. I recently started watching the anime on Netflix and I'm liking it! However, I'm not a fan of long socks and that's what is included in the box. The second wearable is a hoodie and I have the medium size which is definitely too big for me. I am a UK 8 so the hoodie doesn't fit me, so I'm passing it onto a friend as I know that they will love it. It's a really nice design actually with a subtle Space Invaders print.
The final item is a figurine and it's from a collection that I've received a figurine from previously - it might have been from another My Geek Box. The figurine is from original Harley Quinn character which I remember from the Batman animated series from the 90's (I was obsessed with that animated series growing up!). I really like the design of this figurine which is designed by Amanda Conner for DC.
Overall, I was very surprised by the huge number of items within the box - there are six full sized items which I'm very happy with. My favourite items from the box have to include The Simpsons keyring and Venom plushie, from the mystery boxes. I also like the Harley Quinn figurine and the socks! If you love geeky things or know someone who does then definitely check out the amazing My Geek Box as they are such great value for money, in my opinion.
What do you think of this subscription box?

ReplyDeleteYou got so much in the box! It's a shame that the hoodie didn't fit. The plushie is really cute x

This is a great idea! I put together something like this for my husband's birthday last week. I bought the Baby Groot Pop Vinyl toy, a Dwight Schrute coming book and lots of merchandise from Supernatural, Deadpool and Rick & Morty. I'll definelty check this out.
