Everything in the June 2015 Arcade Theme 1 Up Box!
Street Fighter Bobble Budds: Blanka! I’m mildly bummed that I didn’t get Chun Li (she’s like… my character) but this is fun and my son loves bobbles.
Space Aliens Lanyard: If by alien you mean Invaders! I love this classic design and I always love a good lanyard – but now that we’re not in DC, I don’t use one constantly! I need a good use for these – any ideas? I like this one a lot!
Metallic Arcade Sticker
1UP Box June 2015 Arcade Button
Marvel Spider-Man Zipper Pull
So, I’m sort of terrible at video games but some of my best memories are playing them with Tiffany. We also used to collect stickers and this nice puffy sticker is so nostalgic. The zipper pull is excellent and I know my son will want it on a jacket right away.
Pac-Man Candy Tin ($5) This is an excellent novelty item and actually has pac-man shaped candies in it (see them in the link, we didn’t get a photo!). I like this to keep on your desk and hide something after you eat the candy. I think the design is excellent.
Fight Fight Revolution Shirt ($15) So, this is supposed to be Ryu from Street Fighter playing DDR (the arcade version obviously, because he has the handlebars behind him!). I think it’s cute and I appreciate 1 Up box going far back enough that I can get all the references.
As usual, it’s really hard to value a lot of the geek boxes because many of the items are exclusives or one-offs, so you just have to read the reviews and see if you like it! I’ve been trying to pay more attention to the shirts (which we like), and this is a nice thick quality Gildan shirt. From what I have seen from this box so far, it’s an excellent box for younger kids or people who want some swag that’s not too focused (sometimes Loot Crate can be that way).
