May 2018 'Pew Pew' Loot Gaming Review
The May 2018 "Pew Pew" Loot Gaming subscription box featured Overwatch, Destiny, and Metroid - with two items featuring Overwatch.
You'll get a large fold-out information sheet.
One side features a 28x22 poster - this month features an Overwatch anniversary poster.
The reverse side will walk you through the items in the crate.
Pew! Pew! Pin - Value $5?
This month's pin represents the theme in a pretty straight-forward manner - is it just me who imagines Deadpool being on the other side of this speech bubble?
Overwatch Anniversary Shirt - Value $15?
Like the poster, the shirt honors Overwatch's two-year anniversary.
The graphic brings together all 27 playable characters!
You'll also find that little anniversary stamp on the back of your shirt.
World of Nintendo Metroid Figure - Value $15 on Amazon
This month does include a figure - but it's a non-exclusive figure from Nintendo. Everyone gets this larval stage of the Metroid life-cycle figure.
It's small - only about 2.5 inches tall - but is also a little squeezable on top - which was a fun little touch.
Destiny 2 host Keychain - Value $15?
This was my favorite item of the bunch - a Ghost keychain! It's about 2-inches from side to side, which is about as big as I'd want to go with a keychain. Press the middle to play 4 different in-game sounds. It's a small item, but I thought it was a fun one.
Overwatch D. Va's Meka Incredibuild Model - Value $18-22 on Amazon
The final item is a wooden build-kit from Incredibuilds. While I've done most Incredibuild projects in the past, you can check out my recent Cap Shield build here, this one was over 100 steps long - so I did opt out.
These run across a ton of different brands and markets - surprisingly, this one didn't arrive with a little book about Overwatch like most do - instead, it arrived with a mini poster.
You'll get a big sheet of build instructions to get you going. I will say, it helps if you have smaller fingers for these things - the small pieces can be tough to put together. But, once you're done, you can give it any paint job that you'd like - I think that's one of the fun parts.
Verdict: This one is tough for me because I'm not an Overwatch player - but I'm definitely in the minority there - so I probably have a slightly different take on the box. The item I like the most was the Destiny keychain, but overall, it fell short for me, personally.
To Wrap Up:
