February lootcrate!

I FINALLY GOT MY LOOTCRATE! :D
Usually it's here in about a week, but this time I had to wait three! :o It is so aggravating that the weather in America affects me in Denmark :/
Aaanyway, I got the box and it was SO worth the wait! Everything in it is right up my alley! :D

1. The book Ready Player One by Ernest Cline!
     I absolutely adore books, so getting to add this to my collection is a big plus. We are currently in the middle of writing our bachelor projects, so unfortunately I don't have time to read anything 'till april :/

2. A DIY Munny figure. This is a blank vinyl which came with three dry erase markers! i'm not really the most creative person, but I AM a collector of vinyl figures! I drew a little, cute vampire face on it, and put it with my other vinyls :p

3. An exclusive Looter Edition SUPERFIGHT deck (Card Game)! :D These particular cards only exists in this edition. My boyfriend and I really love playing cames, and especially Cards Against Humanity. This is a superheroes against supervillains game that is quite similar in gameplay to CAH. Looking forward to trying it out!

4. A Hexbug!! A robotic insect that reacts to touch! I got the blue "ant" version. It came with batteries already inserted AND an extra pair! Brilliant! I tried the litlle bug(ger) out in class yesterday, and found out that it is suuuper fast! Sensors front and back makes sure that it never got stuck just running into a wall. Really awesome item!

5. A Pac-Man poster, "9 x "13, Nifty little item, printed on good quality stockpaper. Unfortunately we don't really put up posters, but it is really cool! I will definitely keep it for when I get my nerd den!

6. Rock-paper-scissors dice in a cute little velveteen bag! The crate itself is a cool little game, "Crate Packing Simulator 2015", wherein these dice are used. I can defo se us use these dice in stead of doing the oldschool hand gestures!

Lastly there's a code for a ship in the online Firefly game - that hasn't been released yet, and, as always, there's a pin with the month/year and theme of the crate (Play).

All in all, this box was amazing and I cannot wait until I get my march box! :D

Stay awesome,
Buqs

Snack boxes!

My boyfriend and I recently started getting two different monthly subscription-boxes filled with japanese snacks and sweets! Taste Japan is my boyfriends, and Okashi Connection is mine.
They are pretty cheap:
Taste Japan (http://tastejapan.net/) is only $15 a month INCLUDING worldwide shipping and handling! It comes with a cute note, which describes the items in the box, and it usually has a seasonal greeting with facts about the season in Japan (e.g. christmas, new years, valentines day and so forth)
In every box there is about a pound of snacks you probably can't get in your own country!

Okashi Connection (okashiconnection.com) is a bit more expensive, at $22 a month (including shipping and handling worldwide!), but equally as good! There is a bit more snacks in this box than in the one from Taste Japan, but that is to be expected at $7 more. There is no descriptive note in this box, but it does come with special, members only blog-posts. The blog-posts contains extensive information and taste descriptions of all the items included in the box!

We couldn't decide between the two, so we got both :p
At the moment we are waiting for our (my!) Okashi Connection box (as well as my Lootcrate! Come on already!) I will update with an extensive review and taste test - now with pictures ;)

Stay supreme,
Buqs
