Sorry this was late once again, but hey, I'm getting it up in June so that should count, riiiiight? Honestly, I wasn't much looking forward to this theme since I am not a street fighter or pac man fan and Arcade didn't appeal to me much but the past few boxes have been great so I was looking forward to it~
Six items, as per usual
First item I pulled out of the box was this bobble head figure. I'm not really a huge fan of Street Fighter and honestly I have a little something against Ryu because I got totally stuck playing against him in a level and kept losing so I have decided to irrationally dislike him. I would have preferred a Chun-Li figure but boyfriend seems pleased with it.
Next item was this pacman candy tin. I think the idea of the tin is really cute! I tried to focus on the teeny inside of the game. The detail on it is really nice but I'm just not a pacman fan.
Pretty much the only item I was happy with in this box and it's a simple little zipper pull. I love Spiderman (The 90's cartoon series and comic, not the constant reboots of the movie) so I thought this was a neat little item. I'll probably attach this to something of mine since boyfriend doesn't care for Spiderman much.
A Metallic Arcade Decal... It's alright. Nothing special.
Boyfriend will probably stick this on his computer case or something.
Space Alien Lanyard. I think it's neat enough. I like the space invaders and arcade phrases on it. Boyfriend said he will probably end up using this. I just don't use lanyards at all myself.
And of course, the item we look forward to most which is the t-shirt! This one combines two arcade favourites "Dance Dance Revolution" and "Street Fighter" together. I think it's a really neat shirt and I really like it ! I reiterate what I have mentioned in past reviews, the sizings are really big. Me and boyfriend are not super skinny but the mediums just seem really large. We are going to switch to a small and hopefully the sizings will suit us better.
Overall, I wasn't too impressed with this box. I did like the t-shirt and I feel the value was there but not many of the items appealed to me. If anything, I am feeling a little apprehensive about next month's theme is JUSTICE! too which is just not appealing to me. DC heroes and Teenage Mutant Turtles... eh. I was actually going to cancel but I got billed a couple of hours before I did so, so I guess I'll be getting the box afterall! I hope it manages to impress me a little more than this last box. The themes just aren't appealing much to me but the value makes it worth it if you like the theme!
