Geek Alert - June My Geek Box

Spoilers
Always get Doctor Who flashbacks when I see that word.

I know I said I was cancelling My Geek Box but I still get the emails announcing the themes and such and they announced an exclusive Funko! Pop was going to be in the June box so I decided to renew my subscription for one month because I was curious what it would be, especially given the theme.

This month's theme is Abilities and in the geek world, that could mean anything but definitely means something superhero related so I was happy to subscribe once again, even if it was for one time.

I purposely chose  to get the T-shirt in my sister's size because we split the cost of the box and she always likes the random T-shirts I get from My Geek Box and Loot Crate.  The design is great this time around as it is striking, standing out against the white of the shirt, yet simple as well.  My sister was thrilled when she got this too because she loves the X-Men and the films they have inspired so this was a welcome surprise as now she can pretend to be a mutant like them.

If you hadn't guessed by now, I am obsessed with Funko! Pop and I love it when I get exclusive ones as they can be hard to find later on.  I grew up watching the X-Men: The Animated Series and Cyclops, along with Wolverine, was one of my favourite characters and I have been considering adding Cyclops to my ever increasing Pop collection so I am thrilled with this new Pop.

It's been a long time since I have seen any of the Star Wars films so I wasn't overly bothered about the Star Wars mousemat, plus, I haven't used a mouse for a computer in years apart from at university.  I may give this to a friend that is a fan of Darth Maul so that it won't be a waste which unfortunately, it is at the moment.

Though I haven't played any of the Batman: Arkham games, I have loved Batman and the characters he interacts with for years so I was thrilled by the Batman: Arkham Knight badges with Batman, Harley Quinn, Scarecrow, and the Arkham Knight featuring on them.  They're now sat on my backpack with the badges I've got from Loot Crate though this may all change.

If I had to choose between Marvel and DC Comics, Marvel would win hands down and this park of cards has all of my favourite heroes in it - Captain America, Daredevil, Black Widow, and Spider-Man to name a handful.  It's an interesting card game as you pit a character against another and is simple to play, keeping me out of mischief for at least ten minutes.

There are worse sweets that could have been chosen but unfortunately, I am not overly keen on strawberry flavoured sweets so I have given them to others who would appreciate them.  It is one thing I like about My Geek Box, there is a sweet treat in it every month and it's always something random.

The T-shirt and the Funko! Pop were greatly appreciated this month from My Geek Box though I do wish there was more to do with DC Comics in some way as there are plenty of characters that have abilities in that universe as well.  Funko! Pops are always a favourite for me and I'm glad I have an unmasked Cyclops to add to my collection so it was worth the money for this month's box in my opinion.

So next month's My Geek Box theme is Nemesis but I am once again cancelling it because I am not that bothered about it now, I much prefer Loot Crate, I just wanted the Funko! Pop that came this month.
