Each month of The Collector's Case has a theme or featured franchise(s). This month was The Future.

They refined their info card a bit. It's now smaller and looks like a mysterious file. Open it up to reveal the items in your box, as well as the items that were chase items that you may or may not receive.

The Flux Shirt - Value $15?

I love Back to the Future, so this box was perfect for me! All fans know what the flux capacitor is - I like that this is an Emmett Brown work-in-progress drawing!

Emmett Brown POP - Value $15 on Amazon

You have the shirt, why not collect the POPs? The Back to the Future POP collection is really small, unfortunately - there are 6 POPs (including a Ride) - so this will get you closer than you think to completing your collection.

I already own the POPs in this collection - so I decided to keep this one in the case.

To make the preservation of that POP even easier - they also included a clear POP Protector!

the-collectors-case-november-2016-0019

Here is Emmett all sealed up. I can see why these could be really valuable to collectors that keep everything mint in box.

Cosmo POP - Value $10-15 on Amazon

Everyone got a second POP this month! This is Cosmo from Guardians of the Galaxy - you can find Cosmo in one of the Collector's cases in the movie. That feels really appropriate for this box.

All Marvel POPs are bobblehead - so you can see that Cosmo's head bobbles inside the helmet!

the-collectors-case-november-2016-0016

This one will complete your Specialty Series collection!

Back To The Future OUTATIME Dice Game - Value $15 on Amazon

The third item from Back to the Future is a dice game.

Liz and I aren't big into board games - but this one is intriguing since we both love the franchise! I also like the die for the game - especially the 88 miles per hour and flux die sides.

Garbage Pail Kids Minikins - Value $6 on Amazon(based on 5-packs)

Subscribers receive two packs of blind bag Garbage Pail Kids mini figures.

Each pack comes with two tiny 1" rubber figures and a card.

The reverse side of the cards had details of your figure as well. I did collect Garbage Pail Kids when I was really young, and I'm always surprised to find out they are still around! The detail on these is pretty low since they are so tiny.

Beckett Non-Sport Update Magazine - Value $5.99

The final item is a card collector magazine from Beckett.

Like the title suggests, this focuses on all non-sport cards.

Inside, there were also two trading cards.

It also include a non-sport card price guide.

the-collectors-case-november-2016-0062

Inside, you'll find values of a whole lot of cards.

Lastly - they tossed in a branded pin as well.

Some lucky subscribers also received a Christopher Lloyd autographed 8x10! Did you get one?

Verdict: I'm loving both POPs and the shirt - that was enough for me to be happy with this month's Collector's Case - but I wish I had snagged the autograph! While this is the first month that we didn't receive cards, I'd still consider this the best subscription for any non-sport card collectors.
