Exclusive Batman '66 Q-Pop Figure - Value $15-20?
I pulled the value from the edition of this that is for sale. But, the Batman '66 TV Series version is a Loot Crate exclusive which does increase the value. I love this vinyl figure. A lot. I may have to do some research and start collecting some Q-Pop figures.
The 'Kapow' pulls off and there is a mini dry-erase board that you can write messages on. Also - you don't have to include the speech bubble at all, it just pops off.
The League of Regrettable Superheroes - Value $13-15
This book comes with an exclusive cover from Loot Crate. I'm excited to read this, and I love the concept. The book introduces fifty of the strangest superheroes ever written.
You know about Batman, Superman, and Spiderman, but have you heard of Doll Man, Doctor Hormone, or Spider Queen? In The League of Regrettable Superheroes, you’ll meet one hundred of the strangest superheroes ever to see print, complete with backstories, vintage art, and colorful commentary. So prepare yourself for such not-ready-for-prime-time heroes as Bee Man (Batman, but with bees), the Clown (circus-themed crimebuster), the Eye (a giant, floating eyeball; just accept it), and many other oddballs and oddities.
This is a great discovery for me this month!
And here's a look at the art work and writing style.
Wonder Woman Poster - Value $8-10?
I could only find the full size version of this poster online. This one is a much small, glossy, print. I really like the art style of this print.
Brawlhalla Download Card - Value $12.99 on Steam
The preview of the game looks great! I'm excited to see it's available on both PC and Mac (some of the other Steam downloads I've receive weren't available for Mac) - I'm excited to try it out.
Star Trek Air Freshener - Value $1?
Great design for any Trekkie out there!
Batman Multi-Tool Keychain - Value $9
This is a definite keeper. This batarang style multi-tool has a philips and flathead screwdriver, plus a bottle opener. I will admit though, I was tempted to throw it like a batarang as soon as I opened it. Liz would not have been too happy.
Legend of Zelda Sweatband - Value $5?
I couldn't find this wristband for sale anymore - so the value is just a guess. I don't wear wristbands, so this is probably a swap candidate.
Verdict: First off, I appreciate that there was not a t-shirt this month. I find that I typically am impartial to the t-shirts more often than not. I'm pretty amazed by the value the Loot Crate can get into their boxes while keeping the price point lower than most other boxes in the category. This month didn't disappoint for me. I love both Batman items and the book, those were enough to make it a win for me.
