Each month of The Collector's Case has a theme or featured franchise(s). This month was all about Game of Thrones!

It comes with a card made to look like a manilla folder. Inside, you'll find all the details of each item in your box.

Funko Legacy Figure: Arya - Value $10 on Amazon

You'll get one of three Funko Legacy figures: Arya, The Hound, or The White Walker. While I would have been happy with any of them - I was extra happy to get Arya because, honestly, who doesn't love Arya.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0010

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0011

This line of Funko figures is more of an action figure than a vinyl collectible - so you'll find a lot more articulation.

Arya comes with her sword, Needle!

Dark Horse Comics Game of Thrones Mug - Value $10 on Amazon

You'll get an 11 oz mug featuring either the Lannister or Stark sigil. I was a little more unlucky here and got the Lannisters.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0017

It's got the Game of Thrones logo on the back as well!

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0018

I do love that it looks like concrete - plus, it's dishwasher and microwave safe.

2 McFarlane Game of Thrones Mini-Fig Blindbag - $1-2 each on Amazon

You'll receive two blindbag mini figure construction sets from McFarlane.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0033

There come in piece and can definitely be a pain to construct!

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0035

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0036

But once you've got them built, you'll notice the tiny details that McFarlane is known for.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0040

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0039

These can be added to larger construction sets as well. If you're looking for a great Game of Thrones set from McFarlane - I can't recommend the Iron Throne Room set more! I've put it together myself!

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0029

IDW's The Game: On Fire Edition - Value $18 on Amazon

You'll get a card game from IDW - it includes the original card game + expansion pack.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0030

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0031

This is a quick-play, 20-minute card game. Here are some details of the gameplay from Amazon:

In The Game: On Fire, 1-5 players work together to try and discard 98 cards into 4 different piles while never telling each other exactly which cards they're holding. Adding fuel to the fun are the new "On Fire" cards, which MUST be played on when they hit the table.

Dark Horse Comics Game of Thrones Playing Cards - Value $8 on Amazon

You'll get a deck of cards featuring all of your favorite Game of Thrones characters.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0026

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0027

I love that the face cards depict corresponding characters.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0019

3 Packs of Topps Lord of the Rings Trading Cards - Value $6 for all three on Amazon

Finally, you'll get three packs of movie cards featuring Lord of the Rings. Why Lord of the Rings? I'm not sure.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0020

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0021

The depict movie moments from Return of the King.

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0022

The-Collectors-Case-January-2017-0023

They also have randomly inserted authentic autograph and memorabilia cards. I was lucky enough to pull and autograph!

Verdict: I had a blast will all of this Game of Thrones stuff - especially the Funko Legacy figure! Other lucky subscribers would also get a bonus Funko POP - so the value would shoot right up for me if I had received one - did you get one? Which character? Overall, I really liked this box - the shirt, mug, mini figures, and Funko Legacy figure puts this one way over the top for me.
