Unboxing: Horror Block (December 2015)

Unboxing: Horror Block (December 2015)

Because I feel that the Horror Block gives me good value for money - and because I simply love it - I still have my subscription. As I haven't done an unboxing in over a year, I thought I might as well do a post for this one in case anyone is on the fence about getting it (although Nerd Block have deals regularly where you can get one box free for a month or where prices are lower for that exact reason). This one actually arrived really early: I received an email about shipping yesterday, but as it turns out, it was already in England by then!

I already posted about Horror Blocks before, and, as I said then, I decided to keep my subscription. So here's this month's!

I found out about Nerd Block by accident. My fiancée's roommate ordered a Loot Crate and when it arrived we all oohed and aahed and promptly went looking for more of these monthly mystery boxes online. And there, among many others, it was: Nerd Block. What we all liked is that this particular website lets you choose a theme. There's Nerd Block Classic ("Comic Con in a box"; a mixture of geeky things), Nerd Block Jr. Boys (geared at young boys, but can include things like Pokémon, Skylanders, Nintendo, etc), Nerd Block Jr. Girls (geared at young girls, but can include things like My Little Pony, Polly Pocket, Hello Kitty, etc), Horror Block (as the name says: aimed at the horror franchise), and they've now added a new one: Arcade Block (aimed at video games).

Although it seemed appealing to try them all, I decided to stick to the Horror Block, because I absolutely love horror films, books, stories; you get the picture. I subscribed immediately, with the idea that I'd only get it one month, but I've already changed my mind on that one and will keep my subscription a bit longer. XD The Nerd Blocks cost $19.99 (or $13.99 for the Jr. ones, which don't include a shirt) plus shipping. For me shipping was $12.50, but it's fast, includes tracking and, really, it's worth it. (Plus, in euros it wasn't bad at all.)
