Quarterly Toys & Collectibles Subscription Box Review #TOY01 Letter

 

Each Quarterly box comes with a letter from the curator detailing the items included. For the first box, Quarterly is featuring some of their favorite finds from around the globe.

Quarterly Toys & Collectibles Subscription Box Review #TOY01 Mann Co

TF2 Sticky Bomb Plush from Crowded Coop - Value $15

This is the plush version of a weapon from Team Fortress 2. It is well-made and our dog has claimed it as his!

Quarterly Toys & Collectibles Subscription Box Review #TOY01 Flask

Ink Whiskey Flask in Castle Vodka - Value $20

This cartridge is a hidden flask! It looks like there are a few options you could get, and my favorite game title they have is definitely "Drunk Hunt."

And here is the 10-Doh! box opened:

Quarterly Toys & Collectibles Subscription Box Review #TOY01 Figure

Squid Kids Ink 10-Doh! - Value $35

This is another item that varied box to box.

Quarterly Toys & Collectibles Subscription Box Review #TOY01 TV

Kaching Brands TV Head - Value $14

Verdict: This box has a value of about $84 - more than double the $39 cost! I'm impressed with the value, and I think this is an intersting geek alternative box compared to Loot Crate, Nerd Block etc. A lot of the products/brands were completely new to us, but my husband had fun going through it. What do you think of the first Toys & Collectibles Quarterly Box?

I think it’s called the 100% happiness guarantee. It’s easy. All you need to do is email them for a return label, drop it off at UPS, and a week or two later your account is credited back. I did feel bad because it was the second box I returned and let them know that I will be keeping Bianca Jade and MSA. Also on every survey I give the feedback that they should release spoilers or provide more insight to the curator’s vision. Sometimes I can figure out from Facebook and twitter which helped because I knew CreativeBug Box 1 was not for me. Still I can’t figure out whether I want the Arianna Huffingon box based on the teaser which is some type of fabric print.

I wasn’t happy with it at all and neither was my 20 year old gamer daughter that I bought it for. I didn’t realize you could send it back or I would have. Last one for me.

I sent mine back and hopefully someone who was waitlisted was able to buy it. I knew I would send it back once I saw the spoiler on instagram. I can see how it will be fun for some, but it wasn’t for me or my teenage son. The 10-Doh we had was a cartoonish buxom woman on it. He would had like that one Liz received.

We were looking for more along the lines of GeekMe Retro August box. Still I think they did a great job on curating the box and stuck with the theme.

Oooo I like! Nerdblock/Lootcrate always send out the same type of items but I like how this one is curated. Might be worth a shot
