I have to admit subscribing to a monthly Zbox has given me another geeky addiction and as soon as I get the monthly delivery I can’t wait to discover what’s inside. The May box was no exception and the Marvel theme was so perfect – even the fantastic illustrations inside the box looked incredible. If you are new to the concept of Zbox it’s a monthly geeky subscription box which has a value of over £35.00 and is priced from £18.49 per month giving excellent value for money. You will usually receive 4-7 geeky gamer styled products in each monthly box and will always receive a t-shirt as well – don’t forget to add your clothes size when you subscribe. It’s a no commitment box subscription as you can cancel at any time making it very flexible.
First out of the box is 100% cotton black t-shirt with “Asgard, home of the Gods” on the front in vibrant orange and purple illustrations, home of the Asgardians and Norse Gods and the epicenter of the Marvel universe and of course also home to Thor one of the most recognisable Norse Gods. It’s great value too as on the Zbox website most t-shirts retail from £12.99 and as the Zbox t-shirts are so wearable and comfortable I am always very glad of the addition in the monthly box.
Next from Funko is a choice of Pop Vinyl figures from the Captain America Civil War collection, you will either receive Crossbones, Falcon, Winter Soldier or Black Panther. In my box I received 129 Winter Soldier and as always with Pop Vinyls the detail is so intricate and it’s a Pop to add to any collector’s shelf – you may want to collect them all though!
Spider Man is one of the iconic Marvel characters who to many is a the favourite superhero and in every May Zbox, subscribers were treated to a an encyclopedia of all things to do with Spider Man. From DK books this compendium will give you every hero and villain (over 200) involved with Spider Man’s world, a real collectors item and another perfect addition from Marvel.
To accessorise your keys, backpack or trousers the Bag Tag from MArvel comes in a range of seven designs, from Spider Man to Captain America. In my Zbox I received the Hulk with a waterproof covering and space for name and address, they are all so cute and collectable so it doesn’t matter which you get in the box.
Last in the box from Disney infinity the Rocket Raccoon Figure Play Without Limits 2.0 to enhance your gaming experience, an interactive gaming platform as when you place them on the (the Disney Infinity Figures) game base they come to life in the in the game you are playing.
So there you have it the line up for Zbox for May and I have to say it’s been a great month and I have really enjoyed the Marvel theme this month with so much to love about Marvel it was bound to be a substantial box. As always with the monthly Zbox included is the Zbox magazine this month’s ‘Marvellous’ edition is full of Marvel facts and information as well as quizzes and news from Zbox HQ. Lastly I must just point out just how amazing the illustrations are on the box itself, it stands as a work of art and I am yet to throw away any of the boxes as they look so stunning!
