NerdBlock Jr.Girls Unboxing September 2015

Girls Jr. NerdBlock Unboxing September 2015


September 2015 Jr. Girls NerdBlock. This box costs about $15, and you can either choose girls or boys, although they don't differ very much at all, This month the only thing different between boxes was the stickers. Get your own HERE! Okay lets get started !

 First we have a Monsters Inc. Mike ty ball plush. He is super cute and we like him alot.

  Next we have a pocket Funko Pop and its Olaf from Frozen. Olaf and Funko Pop's are a family favorite so of course we like this item.

 Now our Favorite item this box was this little guy. He is an Elektrokidz, and it's hair dances to your favorite beat. So I have not seen these before but it must be some kind of trolls doll. Its super awesome. My grandmother used to collect trolls when I was little. So this was an awesome new version of my past, and I'm actually kinda sad this is my daughters box and I don't get to keep him.


Here is a Video of him in action. Pretty cool.


 Then we got some 3D My Little Pony stickers, and they are some really nice stickers.


Last we got this book. The Squickerwonkers by Evangeline Lilly. Illustrated by Johnny Fraser-Allen. Its a beautiful paper back picture book.

So all in all we are really happy with this box. Its the best Jr. NerdBlock we have gotten yet !

Super-Who-Lock Unboxing Sep 2015


 Unboxing Super-Who-Lock Sep. 2015
Super-Who-Lock (Supernatural, Doctor Who and Sherlock) is the theme for this months CollectableGeek subscription box. They had the regular cash for around $25 and the deluxe cash for around $60. This unboxing is the regular cash. To see a deluxe unboxing please visit my friends at Total Mail Call HERE. Lets dig in!
First off is my favorite item in the box the t-shirt. It mashes all 3 shows beautifully and I love it. Seems like it will be comfortable, and its well made.
Then my 2nd favorite items. Mystery mini's! I love mystery mini's. We got a Supernatural one and a Doctor Who one. I got Charlie out of Supernatural. I love Charlie so I was happy with her. Out of the Doctor Who one I got the 10th Doctor or Tennet in his jam jams. Of course I love him as well.
Next I got a Sherlock magnet. Its cool. It will go on my fridge.
Last we got these mini posters. They are cool and all but I do not know what I will do with them. That's it that's the box. I wish there had been a large item, but they are making changes to the cashes to make that happen so I am pretty happy about that. Also I am kicking myself for not getting the deluxe cash as the extra items in there were totally awesome!
Had I gotten the deluxe cash all you see in that picture above would have been in the box as well. So yeah hope you enjoyed !
