Here are the items in the December 1UP box!

The panda is exploding with energy! This reminds me of manga shows.

We received a Funko POP! Keychain ($4.99)! It’s Batman!! This is one of 6 possible color combinations.

It’s the… rotting banana variation. Huh….

In all seriousness though, this is cool to hardcore (and most other) batman fans. In Detective Comics Vol 1 #241 Batman had 6 Batsuits he would use when fighting crime!

Did you notice the banana suit looks ripe? This was clever on 1UP’s part, but I’m not sure how batman fits into energy.

Mega Man sticker. This looks like a kid version of Mega Man. It’s a nice little sticker. His eyes are green instead of the normal blue and it looks like he is wearing white gloves. This is how Mega Man looks in his new mobile games.

Samus is suited up and ready to go anywhere with you! This is just the traditional Samus suit on a white canvas bag. The bag is on the smaller side, but it’s a nice print.

Does anything particular fandom come to mind when you see this box?

Golden energy sword keychain… TOTALLY A LIGHTSABER!!!!

This has a Star Wars background, Star Wars lettering, it’s designed like a lightsaber, and says “saber” in the description. This is a great 1UP Box exclusive! To be honest with you I think it’s just cool to look at, I wouldn’t want to put something this big on my keychain.

What a shirt! Mega Man is donning red Santa gloves and is delivering toys with Zero Suit Samus! Yes, Samus is a girl, and so is Zelda for that matter 🙂 I love that the sleigh is being pulled by little Metroids. A Metroid is one of the enemies in the Metroid series, which Samus is from. The space background is a really nice touch.

This is definitely not the best box we’ve ever received. The shirt is nice, but that’s it. I don’t like that two keychains were included. One keychain is enough for a box. That’s from an adult, collector standpoint. J (age 8) thought that this was a great box, so if you’re looking for something a kid will love then this is good. He thought every item was good and it didn’t matter to him that there were two keychains.
