Pokemon Lapander Hat - Value $14.95 on Amazon
First up is this Pikachu hat from Bioworld. I was on the outside of age range to be a big Pokemon fan when it started - that being said, this is still a really cool hat - and I'm sure is highly swappable!
Homer Simpson Golden Buddha - Value $9 on Amazon
This is my favorite item of the month! This golden Homer buddha is from KidRobot and comes with a pretzel as an accessory. After watching the first episode of the new season last night, I'm ready for more Simpsons items!
Hearthstone Foam Stress Ball - Value $18.97 on Amazon
The value seems pretty high for this item, but it's also unique, and I believe, exclusive at the time of shipment. This is a Hearthstone from World of Warcraft - which I was into from work friends for about a month, but haven't played since - I can totally see how it can suck you in.
Supernatural 1967 Chevy Impala - Value $30 on Amazon
This is an exclusive item - but I did find that it will be for sale in late November - and at a much higher price than I thought. This is a 1:43 scale replica of Dean's car in Supernatural. This version of the die-cast car include Kansas plates from a flashback episode in the series.
Hearthstone Collectible Coin and Card Code - Value ?
This item was a Blizzcon 2014 exclusive. On the back, it include a code for in-game DLC and exclusive digital game cards. I really like that you use the coin to scratch of the area to show the download code!
Here's a picture of the back.
This month Loot Crate also included their own mobile game called Master Summoner, and included cards in the booklet for use in the game - a very cool concept!
Verdict: Having known that the theme was Summon, I had already known that this box wouldn't be up my alley. I do love the Homer buddha, but I'm definitely not the demographic for this box - but that's ok, because it's pretty much impossible to get a theme that is universally loved. And I'm reaaaaaaaally excited for October's theme! As per usual, Loot Crate's value is fantastic, and I'm sure fans of the genre will love some of these exclusive items!
