I imagine it would contain several awful socks a collection of lanyards maybe a crap thirty and be topped off with an inflatable crown and the newest item in the list of course the official escape from new York eyepatch. Also I share your pain on the constant barrage of funco pops I have never got the point of them, personally I don't mind the whole cutesy dynamic as long as it's done well but these things always seemed a bit crap to me.

    Hmm, as someone who wears an eye patch daily for medical one-eyedness reasons that's even a shitty eye patch. It's not domed at all. You'd have a very itchy, sweaty eye area very quickly. If you check out a medical eyepatch you'll see it kind of has a peak built in by folding and seaming the stiff fabric. (Temporary eye strengthing patches I think are usually convex plastic with some ventilation holes, I've never used one of those, though.)

    The shirt features Deku, the main character of My Hero Academia, fighting someone I don't recognize.
    Toriko is a series about ultra strong warriors traveling around to find the best food in the world or something like that. They probably fight monsters and cook them up to try them as meat or something. I just know they did two crossovers with One Piece, the first just being those two series, then the second one added Dragon Ball Z into the mix making it a three-way crossover. I think the guy on the keychain is one of Toriko's friends? The guy in the orange outfit on the card is the title character.
    The Toei animation logo is of Puss in Boots, you know, from the old fairy tale. They made a movie out of it at the end of the '60s and made the title character into their mascot for some reason.
    I'm not sure about High School Zombie aside from making the obvious assumption that it's a series about high school and zombies. Presumably kids fight classmates and teachers that have become zombies? No idea. I got sick of zombies several years ago.
    A Certain Scientific Railgun is a spin-off side story to another series (A Certain Magical Index), that mixes magic and sci-fi and stuff, but I don't know much about it. I've heard they're good, but I haven't gotten around to learning more yet.

    That phase-in for the LootCrate was total fire.
    Also, while I enjoy Kinder Bueno, the White version is a little too sickly sweet for me. Though to be fair, that's most pure white chocolate for me. But if you were to have it swirled with dark chocolate, it'd help even it out. I don't mean just milk chocolate, mind: if you had the white chocolate alternating with the dark chocolate, you'd probably have a charming taste-experience. Hell, if the name wasn't taken already, you could call it a Zebra bar. (though you might be able to get away with it, since the taken name was Zero Zebra)

      they even make like a Kinder B. that isn't covered in chocolate at all, like a cheap-o version of it (it's all sweet, I used to like white chocolate as a kid because it was so bizarre to me - it's not really "chocolate", it's "fat"). When they mix together all 3: dark, milk and white - is actually a thing... like the TRIOLADE Milka (it's "massive" - bigger than your usuall 100 gram chocolate, and expensive outside of discount)... or the... shiiit, what's the brand's name... you know, the one that's already made into squares... fuck me! Alzheimer's kickin' in, lol... I don't eat sweets anymore, I can at least remember, eh... I could, if I could remember... Schogetten!!! (fuck! did I really had to look it up?!)... Milka, Schogetten, or Ritter Sport, they all got "wacky" flavors like that (the salty corn one, lol)... You're right, tho' - the white choc. alone is "overwhelming" (it's too strong!), Then we've got some "local" brands (namely Orion, that's decent chocolate, especially their "student's seal" that shit's awesome... they also used to make the "multicolor chocolate mix" thing with it, like, normally it's either dark, milk, or white version, but they made the mixed version, too, not sure if they still make it, probably not - all good things must end, huh... "student's seal" is like... it got "jellied" fruit (oranges and shit) and peanuts in it... and RAISINS! - sorry, had to yell that one, lol, it's an old joke)

    I'm Brazilian, "Piraquê" is something like "pee-rah-KEH"... not sure how to describe it to you.
    They have a snack like the pizza one but ham flavoured (?) and it's pretty good.
    I remember thinking as a kid that Piraquê was a hipster-ish brand. They always had interesting packaging and they are a small company I think.

    Knowing Royal Mail international if you get your parcels sent by teleportation their import and handling fees are probably higher so I wouldn't bother next time.

    • @alastairward2774
      @alastairward2774 5 років тому +5

      HMRC charges you a tiny fee for imports, then Royal Mail pile it on for merely collecting it on their behalf.
      Worse when the pound weakens and purchases from abroad are suddenly over the 15 quid limit.

      Alastair Ward I hate their smug little note as well. No one ever asked them to collect it for us - I’d rather go to the import office myself just to prove a point. And if you’re dropping a note through my door you might as well just bring the bloody parcel in exchange for cash!

    Interesting that you got the eyepatch. When I got my box last month, it came with everything *except* the eyepatch, and instead it included the following note titled "Plissken's Missin'":
    ""Hey, Looter!
    If you flipped through this month's product guide (it's pretty great), you might've noticed that the Escape from New York Cosplay Eyepatch is MIA from your crate. Well, after the guide went to print, we found out that there were some product issues seriously delaying the eyepatch (they were...unforseeable).
    Rather than delay your crate, we'll be adding the eyepatch to our January crate so make sure to keep an eye out. We're sorry for the product guide mix up, but we think you're going to love your SCAVENGE crate!
    Sincerely,
    Team Loot Crate"

    I like the Volkswagen pin a lot, a rare occasion of something in a Lootcrate that I'd actually buy were I to see it at a store for a reasonable price (dunno what the prices are like on eBay) because I like Volkswagen Beetles.
    I'm glad Volkswagen finally came to their senses and let Takara, Hasbro, and Paramount turn Bumblebee, possibly the most beloved Transformer of all time, into a Volkswagen Beetle again instead of a Camaro or a generic compact car.

    • @ArinJager1
      @ArinJager1 5 років тому +1

      they sell (and obviously make) them pretty much anywhere and everywhere... nothing about kinder b. is exclusively polish - besides the package - as you pointed out, I guess (and that it might've been made there, as Ferrero has factories there - in Poland, that is... Ferrero stuff used to be mostly manufactured in Germany, now it's mostly Poland... and France, too)... The box is rubbish! An unoriginal food lootcrate -.-

    So, weird coincidence, I've been to that coffee shop. They are a coffee roaster and peanut roaster (apparently a great thing to do when cleaning out the roasting barrel) in an extremely small town where I grew up. An actual small personally owned business with surprisingly good coffee (they at least did single source roasts as well in the past) and a small Asian section as well. I'm actually kind of shocked to see it pop up in a food box video and want to thank you for the inadvertent nostalgia.
