Snapshot Sunday - Fantastic Four

Marvel Collector Corps - January Edition - Fantastic Four

January's Marvel Collector Corps theme was Fantastic Four. A series of Fantastic Four Pops had recently been released outside of the Marvel Collector Corps. I had considered getting them because I LOVED the Fantastic Four comics growing up (as well as the first movie with Chris Evans) but I decided to wait to see what was inside my box first. So glad I did!

I really loved this box and I'm so glad I got it! I considered skipping it only because I've been subscribed to Marvel Collector Corps for almost a year now and haven't skipped any boxes, so the Pops are really started to add up and take up space. Ultimately I didn't because I really love the Fantastic Four.

This box had 5 items: two Funko Pops, a decal, a t-shirt and an enamel pin. I'm a big fan of the t-shirt because it has a great design. It looks like a comic book cover which I love and features all of the characters. I also like that it's a denim blue color since almost every other shirt I've ever gotten has been black. I like variety and color! Doctor Doom is my favorite Marvel villain so that pin is perfect and proudly displayed at my desk at work. I was really hoping for something Doom in this box. The Human Torch Pop is the same design as the regular Pop but this one glows in the dark. The Mr. Fantastic Pop has a different pose to the common but is still pretty similar, with his arms more stretched and his hands out instead of in fists. I personally prefer this design to the common version. Finally I don't really use stickers/decals much but they're something I can make use of, and as far as those go, I like the flame "4" logo of this one.

I would value the contents of this box at around $55 which is pretty good. Personally I'm happy with everything I got but I can see why some people would be disappointed in this box. It doesn't offer all that much from what you could buy outside of the subscription service and if you already bought all of those Pops you've almost ended up with dupes. I didn't have anything yet so it worked out well for me because I kinda got an upgrade to Pops I was going to buy anyway.

The next box will be released in March and I'm seriously considering skipping it. We'll see.

Marvel Collector Corps - November Edition - Marvel Holiday

November's Marvel Collector Corps was aptly themed to Marvel Holiday. This box sounded fun to me and didn't disappoint. The box contained 4 items this time: two Funko Pops, a t-shirt, and a pair of shot glasses (or as Funko refers to them, "toothpick holders").

I loved the Pop of little Groot dressed as a Christmas tree, although I think the baby Holiday Groot Pop I got is a lot cuter. The Holiday Thor Pop cracked me up with Mjolnir wrapped as a Christmas gift with his name on it. These go perfectly with my other Marvel Holiday Pops sold outside of Marvel Collector Corps. I don't use shot glasses all that much but the holidays are when I'm most likely to use them, so these are perfect and pretty cute with designs from the regular Marvel Holiday series.

Finally the Infinity Gauntlet t-shirt. I like the ugly sweater design, very appropriate for the holidays since there isn't anything else holiday themed about the shirt. I'm getting a little fed up with all the Thanos repetition but this shirt is pretty cool for the holidays.

Overall I really like everything in this box and I'm glad I didn't skip it. The Pops have been with their Marvel Holiday counterparts on my desk at work for the holiday season. I would value the contents of this box at $50 which I think is pretty good.

Snapshot Sunday - Skyliner Funko Pop

This is a hefty Funko Pop and the level of detail is incredible! I couldn't get a picture but there's even detailed benches on the inside! The only complaint I have is with Funko's non-existent quality control. My poor Mickey has red stains on his face. Not cool.

I finally found Madame Leota! I also picked up the Box Lunch Groundskeeper exclusive and decided why not complete the set with the only Pop left - the Hot Topic Merry Minstrel exclusive.

Marvel Collector Corps - September Edition - Marvel 80 Years

September's Marvel Collector Corps boxed was themed to 80 Years of Marvel. I was really excited for what would be in this box - so much to choose from over 80 years! I like what I got but I think this box should have been named "Marvel Villains" instead of Marvel 80 Years because only villains are represented in this box. What's up with that? The card inside even says "Celebrates 80 years of Super Heroes and villains that make them look good". There are no super heroes in this box.

This box contained 5 items which was pretty good: two Pops, a t-shirt, a decal and an enamel pin. I really love the decal! It looks like the corner of an old comic with the Marvel Comics Group logo, issue number and price. Neat! The pin isn't pictured above (I already took it to work and put it on my pin board) but you can see it in the summary card photo below. It's the Hydra logo.

The Green Goblin t-shirt is pretty awesome, he's one of my favorite villains so I will for sure wear that shirt. The Pops are really hefty! The first is Thanos and the second is Loki. Both designs are taken from the first comic appearance of each character. Both Pops are well done but I prefer Loki. I like his character better but also I feel like Thanos is pretty over-saturated at this point.

I would value this box at around $55. I like this box a lot more than the Spider-Man: Far From Home box. I keep saying I may not continue to subscribe but for now I will.

Haunted Mansion Funko Pop Series Release

I've been waiting for at least a month for this series to finally hit the shelves and I can finally say that is has! I went to 2 Target stores on the way home tonight after discovering they had finally dropped. The first Target is pictured above. They had almost everything: the Opera Singer, Constance, the Mummy Spirit and of course their exclusives, the 10" Ezra and the metallic Hitchhiking Ghost 3-pack. They also had a backpack, t-shirt and bowl and spoon set. They did not have the Pocket Pop of Ezra, Gus or Phineas.

I picked up the Opera Singer, Constance and the Mummy Spirit before going to a second target in the hopes of finding Madame Leota. The second Target had even less with only the Mummy Spirit and 3 pack available. Box Lunch are already showing out on all of their Haunted Mansion Pops but there's hope at Hot Topic who haven't received their stock yet. A friend of mine who works there told me their shipment has been delayed with no explanation given.

ETA: The full collection has now dropped at Hot Topic and Box Lunch have re-stocked many of their Pops.

Marvel Collector Corps - July Edition - Spider-Man

I still debate on keeping my Marvel Collector Corps subscription. So far I've been very happy with both boxes but I'm always afraid I'll get a box I don't like. I loved Spider-Man: Far From Home so I opted to keep this box. I will say this has been my least favorite box so far.

There were 5 items in this box, one more than last time, but I feel like quantity won over quality this time. Two of the items were Pops: Spider-Man in a Dutch soccer jersey and Mysterio. The scene where Peter dons the soccer Jersey in Holland is pretty funny and a great idea for a Pop if you're wanting to reflect memorable movie moments, but the Pop itself is very "meh". I never would have bought it if I saw it on the shelf.

Mysterio however is an incredible Pop! His cape is very well detailed and he lights up! Very cool. I've always thought Mysterio was an awesome villain so I love this Pop. The other three items were a hacky sack, a Midtown School of Science and Technology cinch tote/drawstring backpack, and a Spider-Man logo decal.

The hacky sack looks cute but honestly, I can't tell you what I'll ever do with it. Pretty useless. The backpack is neat but very cheaply made. You couldn't put much in there at all without it ripping. I use drawstring totes all the time but I'm not sure what I'll use that for since it's so fragile. The decal is cool but I don't really know where to put it so for now it's still in the box.

I would put the value of this box at about $45. This box truly made me question if I should continue with the Marvel Collector Corps at this point. I love Mysterio but could live without the other items. The next theme sounds pretty good so I'll give it one more shot and see if I'll keep subscribing.

Disney Treasures - Lilo & Stitch Box

This box was released back in November and I guess with being in Air Force technical training I just completely missed it. I found it in on sale at my local Hot Topic so I snagged it! I love the pineapple crate design of the box! I didn't get it in the picture but another neat detail is Stitch's eyes peering through on one side.

The box includes a Hot Topic Exclusive Pocket Pop of Experiment 626 Stitch, Angel plush, Hot Topic Exclusive Tiki Stitch Funko Pop that's pineapple scented, and a Mystery Mini of Stitch dressed in Nani's laundry.

I love everything in this box except the plush. I never cared for Lilo & Stitch 2 or the animated series. But even though I don't like it I still kinda want to keep all of the items in the box together lol. The scented Pop is definitely scented and made the whole box smell delicious! But while on display I can't say I really noticed the scent. The Pocket Pop is cute, I love the Tiki Stitch it just looks awesome! The Mystery Mini is also hysterical! I love how he looks and that's one of my favorite scenes in the movie, too funny.

I probably wouldn't have purchased this box at full retail price of $32.90 but it was worth the sale price for sure.
