Alien Abduction Enamel Pin: Commemorate your abduction with a fun and highly detailed enamel pin! I thought this was a good item and I think the kids already snapped it up to decorate their legend hunter rucksack.

Fredrik Eden Star Wars Art Print: Illustrator Fredrik Eden calls himself an “Illustrator who loves living life, shitty horror movies and gaming.” So I’d say he’s a great artist for this box! Zombies really isn’t my particular genre, but I thought the rebellion qua zombies in the light of the full moon was witty. His blog is a must see!

Mystery Science Theater 3000 4-Pack DVD ($19.99) I got a big laugh out of the information card, which spelled it as “Theatre” – we’re not quite so fancy here folks! sci-fi-block-october-2016-2

Doesn’t this sound better than football? To a classic sci-fi fan, the answer is YAASSSS.

Judge Dredd Year One Omnibus ($7.12) 3 Judge Dredd novellas, all in one book, wrapped in a variant cover.

Three celebrated Judge Dredd writers take you back to Dredd’s first year on the streets of Mega- City One as a full-eagle Judge, in three thrilling novellas.

Bred to dispense Justice, the young Dredd is not the wizened veteran we know, but a Judge with built-in determination and little experience. In City Fathers, the brutal murder of a Justice Department-sanctioned spy uncovers something new and dangerous in the sector’s murky black market. Unless Dredd can stop it, chaos will be unleashed.

In Cold Light of Day, a savage killing spree results in the deaths of two highly regarded Judges, and many consider Dredd to be responsible: a decision he made five years earlier – while he was still a cadet – has come back to haunt him. The third story in the collection will debut in this collection and is guaranteed to thrill.

These stories track Dredd’s first days as a judge.

When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth Scarf: This is really the highlight of the box: #1, because it’s from the totally classic scene in Jurassic Park, and #2, because THAT reference is from the totally classic horror dinosaur/prehistoric movie shockingly titled When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth!

The intarsia design is knit on both sides!sci-fi-block-october-2016-15

It’s so big that I had to take 2 photos of the entire thing.

This was just so clever!

Blade Runner T-Shirt: We can all agree to disagree on whether or not Deckard is a replicant! This shirt, which shows the origami unicorn at the end of the film, raises the question anew. Love this classic sci-fi nod.

ShirtPunch.com! Shirt Punch has shirts as low as $10 (shipping $6), so you can get a shirt around $6, which is an awesome deal, but I love the daily bundles they have!  I haven’t bought many recently – they’ve been on a horror tear. 

There was also a $10 code for the Nerd Block Shop, as well as a Funimation now code.

I thought the selections were great for this month. October was a well-curated box, with great variety, and tons of fan faves, plus it makes me happy when Sci-Fi Block includes a book!
