My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

The Box: Loot Crate Limited Edition Ghostbusters Crate

The Cost: $55

The Products: $90+ value including :

• A t-shirt that will make you feel good
• A replica to charge up your collection
• A figure to make your friends green with envy

I loved the ghost trap information card! The back has all the details about the items inside.

2016 Ghostbusters Unifrom Shirt - Value $15?

The first item in the box is the new-style Ghostbusters uniform t-shirt.

While I would have liked an original style shirt better, I have cautious excitement for the new movie (I love the cast) - so I'm excited to get the new style shirt.

It's got the logo on the sleeve as well!

Exclusive Slimer Titan - Value $15-20?

This is my favorite item in the box - an exclusive Slimer Titan vinyl figure. I'm not a big Titan fan - but their design style works well with Slimer!

Slimer glows in the dark and has articulation in the arms and wrists - easily my favorite Titan, ever. I can see him about to slime Venkman.

2016 Proton Pack Replica - Value $15-20?

The next item is a replica model of the new Proton Pack. The first thing I noticed was that the packaging was not ideal for collectors who keep boxes for value. Instead, it was in a plastic bag that you have no way of saving.

This left a lot to be desired for me. I didn't feel that the detail level on the item was high enough for a limited edition collectible. I was excited to get my hands on this, but it was disappointing for when I took a closer look at the details.

Ghostbusters Logo Rub - Value $20-30?

They included a Ghostbusters logo rug. I would consider this more of a bath mat than a rug or doormat - but maybe that's just me.

You can't go wrong with the Ghostbusters logo for me - it's classic. This mat is pretty small, too - it's got a 2-foot diameter.

Ghostbusters Pin - Value $10?

Liz taught me that pins are on-trend at the moment - so as far as pins go, you can't get much better for me.

I really like how they kept a lot of similar details to the classic Ecto-1 - it's such an iconic piece of the franchise that I think it's important to keep it similar.

Set of 2 Pre-Vis Art Prints - Value $15-20?

The final item is this set of prints. These are concept art pieces for the new movie. I like that it's something original, but prints are never exciting for me, especially in a higher-priced box.

The last fun piece of the box was the box itself! You can invert it and make a proton pack with the included arm straps:

You can get a sense of the logo mat here as well - it's not too big.

I had to break out the PKE Meter for pictures! Bustin' makes me feel good.

Verdict: This box was a bit of a letdown for me. I love the Ghostbusters, and while this wasn't a bad box, I thought, as a fan, that there was so much more potential for it! I do love the shirt, rug, and especially the Slimer Titan - but the other two items left a lot to be desired for me.

Are you excited for the movie? I have cautious optimism. That's the best way I can describe it. I'm a fan of the cast, and I've loved what they've done in the Ghostbusters comics of having different Ghostbusters teams in Chicago and New York - so I'm not totally tied to the original Ghostbuster as much anymore. Fingers crossed. No spoilers in the comments - it takes me forever to get to the movies! I still haven't seen X-Men!
