The Loot Crate box is always dark, but this month it seems to be a little darker than ever. Could it have anything to do with the theme – Villans 2?
For every hero’s journey, there’s a strike back, a revenge, an evil electric boogaloo! This month, we’re cowering in fear at the return of the VILLAINS! Whether they’re terrifying or tragic, something about bad guys and gals is just plain fun. Probably the snazzy outfits, army of henchmen and totally relatable “treat yo’self to some sweet loot” attitude.
WHAT IS LOOT CRATE
Here’s the low-down on what Loot Crate offers. For under $20 a month, they deliver a box of Geek and Gamer gear valued at over $40. Shirts, stickers, collectibles from companies like kidrobot & Funko, and random fun stuff like sunglasses & socks. All the gear is nerd/geek themed and every month is like Nerd Christmas. I can’t wait to find out what is inside each month.

This month, we take a deeper dive into the contents of the latest crate with close-up photos of the Loot. Click on any of the images below for a larger version.

As promised, the Loot Crate team came through with an assortment of nerdy/geeky stuff that we might otherwise have never seen. We got to check out a variety of items for one low price, including an awesome exclusive. My favorite item this month is definitely the Joker wooden figure, since I am a sucker for just about any collectible figure. And that Venom mug! I’m not a big coffee drinker, but that mug will make an awesome place for my pens & pencils on the office desk.
