April 2018 Lootaku "Girls of One Piece" Review
The April box focused on the women in the popular anime, One Piece.
Each month includes a detailed information card with information on each item - including item values based on Amazon at the time of curation.
Banpresto Girly Girls Reiju Vinsmoke - Value $30 on the card ($20 on Crunchyroll)
The first of two Banpresto statues is the character "Poison Pink".
All Banpresto items arrive in a sealed bag with each part ready to be assembled.
The statue is about 6 inches tall when it's all assembled. And like all Banpresto item, it's got great detail and a killer paint job.
Banpresto One Piece Flag Diamond Ship Nico Robin - Value $40 on the card ($20 on Crunchyroll)
The second statue is a 10-inch tall Nico Robin figure.
Again, note the sealed plastic bag - it can be one way to tell if it's a knockoff (check for the Banpresto sticker on the box as well).
This is actually a newer Banpresto line called "Flag Diamond Ship" that features large-scale female character statues sporting original pirate costumes.
Metal Print - Value $20
This print is a Lootaku exclusive item and features the artwork of Boa Hancock.
Each metal print is also signed a numbered! Plus, to make mounting super easy, they've also included a simple solution:
Just use this peel-and-stick magnet to easy mount metal prints!
Sanji & Nami Bath Towel - Value $15 on the card
The final item in the box is a 20x40 inch bath towel.
It's thin and soft - you could even use this as just a display.
Verdict: Lootaku tends to skew toward anime - so if you're looking for those cases where they deliver a Marvel, DC, or Game of Thrones box, you'll need to keep up with the monthly themes. Overall, I think this is one of my favorite geeky boxes - it got me to love Banpresto figures, and I love getting all of the different imported variants and items for each theme. While I was able to find some of the items for less online this month, that's not really the norm - they're typically really good at valuing each item on the card and hitting an awesome box value, as well.
To Wrap Up:
