Loot Crate: The Unveiling
Obviously, I did not win the Mega Crate which is fine by me. I don't really need a gamer's PC when I don't even have a Steam account.
Bond T-Shirt
I was hoping for the t-shirt to be Bond honestly. One of my brothers used to be heavily obsessed and by obsessed, I mean that we would fast-forward or rewind the cassette tape, then you would have to name the theme song and which film it appeared in. Now with Daniel Craig, I think my mom and I have become more excited than he is.
The t-shirt is thin, like INCREDIBLY thin! I tend to wear a button t-shirt with it that's unbuttoned so the picture shows but not anything else. I've been trying to get used to wearing it without it but I still feel weird and prudish about my bra showing.
The t-shirt is TIGHT! My mom blames this on my gaining seven pounds but seven fucking pounds does NOT do that. I assumed it would be tight so I gave them medium like TeeFury but it turns out to need more of a Hit Topic sizing where you add 2 sizes to your current size.
The t-shirt is made in Bangladesh. I didn't know this ahead of time either. I never willingly buy clothing made in Bangladesh.
Field Agent Blink Time Wrist Watch
I have enjoyed playing with these in stores. You press the face and the time blinks on it. Otherwise, the face is either a solid color or a picture. This one was all black.
Here I am, wearing it at Easter.
Sometime during Easter, eight days after receiving it, I killed my watch. it stopped being able to keep the time and I couldn't reset it. I have always had problems with watches which is why I don't wear them anymore, but this was a definite record. I was also quite sad because I had grown to like knowing the time without taking the phone out of the pocket.
Spy Mad Libs
This would be great for someone with children or more of a social life. I never felt like playing with my coworkers and I don't really have social occasions. I tried to do in on Twitter which worked once and was a failure after that. I don't think my nephew did his Mad Libs either.
Agents of SHIELD Replica
So, I felt like a bit of a bad Coulson/SHIELD fan. I hadn't noticed that in place of badges, everyone uses this lanyard now to gain access to things with a little more discretion.
This is Agent Phil Coulson with his Lanyard.
Then, I hung it up on the wall with my SHIELD dog tag, Avengers skate board and Tokidoki Steve.
Conveniently, Loot Crate's colors are orange and black just like the lanyard which HAS been worn on the show, just not my specific one.
Paracord bracelet
It's orange and black and I love it! Those are my favorite colors to go together because those were my school colors for thirteen years. You can see me wearing it in the Easter photo and I'm still wearing it at this moment. I love the durability. It also came with a pamphlet about how to use it in a survival situation.
Orphan Black Comic Book
Okay, I can see what everyone said about the artwork, but it's hard to say anything bad about it because she's so gosh darn nice on Twitter. I didn't mind the rehash since I haven't seen the episodes since they first aired for the most part. I was kind of tempted to buy more but might wait for a collected works. I'm also very curious about their promise to veer off and include deviations from the episodes, including scenes that weren't there.
Notebooks
These are totally cute and I will probably never use them.
Am I sorry I bought it? No, I think I got my money's worth but I think I would only buy it again if, like this time, I was almost completely certain about getting my money's worth.
Has anyone gotten that new Funko Marvel crate?

I forgot that it had loose threads before putting it in the laundry...
When I took it out, almost the entire bottom hem was unsewn and most of it had wrapped around a towel that had a tiny hole which was now HUGE!
That shirt is only being worn when a Bond film opens or relevant occasions.
