I arrived home and noticed there was a box waiting for me.  I was pretty anxious to see what Marvel had in store for me with the Spider-Man edition of the Marvel Collector Corps subscription box.

Marvel Collector Corps is a bi-monthly subscription from Marvel Comics and Funko. Boxes are $25 plus shipping and there are no coupons. The box promises $50 in value every box, plus every single item is a 100% exclusive item. Past items have included vinyl collectibles, home items, accessories, and apparel. 195
Every month has included a comic and the exclusive patch and pin.

A Spider-Man patch and pin are included and are the first things you see when you open the box.
227I like the classic Spider-Man face look.  Marvel Comics used to have something similar on the covers to their comics.

224The pin has a more modern look to the spider logo.  This item looks wonderful as well.

The inside of the box has some cool artwork! 199Spider-Man has, arguably, the best costume in all of comic books.  He’s covered head to toe so it could really be anybody under that costume.  Spider-Man also boasts some of the best villains in the Marvel Universe.  Ever since I was a kid watching “Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends” cartoon every Saturday morning, I’ve been a fan of Ol’ Web-Head.  If you’re skeptical because of the movies, pick up a comic series.  Heck, I’ll help you find a story line to check out.

Spidey gets the royal treatment with some incredible items.  Hat, collectible toys, comic book and more.  What an awesome time to get the Marvel Collector Corps subscription box!

Funko has now started inserting information cards that detail the creation of each item. These are really cool – but sometimes they don’t pack on in the box. I was lucky this month and scored one!

This is really awesome and gives some insight into the Funko creation process as well as why some of the items were selected.  There is also a tease for the October 2016 box!

231The Amazing Spider-Man – Variant Cover – $3.99 cover price.  The Funko Pop version of Spider-Man graces the cover of this comic book.  I like that this is actually the comic book from this month of the series.  246There was a bit of damage on the corner of the comic book I received.  That probably could have been avoided if it had been packed at the bottom of the box rather than jostling at the top.


233Funko Pop! Spider-Man leaping figure.  This figure is exclusive to the box, therefore estimating price is really based on the current market at conventions or eBay.235This is a fantastic addition to any POP! collection.  The detail looks great and the clear stand is a great touch.

240Fabrikations Soft Sculpture by Funko.  A Spider-Man stuffed toy.  This is a bigger item as this packaging took up a large amount of the box.  All things considered, it’s well built.  I’m just not a huge fan of cuddly stuffed toys.

207210212213Amazing Spider-Man Snap-Back Hat.  I like that Marvel Collector Corps. does more than just t-shirts with their apparel.  The grey hat looks great with the darker brim, button and holes.  The logo is Spidey’s Funko face and the back has the more modern looking spider logo.

Marvel Collector Corps knocked it out of the park with this box.  Spider-Man has long been the face of the Marvel Universe and I was really happy with the items that arrived.   This is one of the best values you can find within the world of subscription boxes. I can’t wait for the next box!
