Mine Chest is the one and only official subscription box for Minecraft fans! It is licensed by Mojang, and now operated by Loot Crate. This box is now a $39.99 bimonthly box, US shipping included.

FYI – this box shipped very late and we only only just received it. Be sure to check out the theme spoilers and subscribe by July 15 for the next box!

The box is decorated all around with stickers from previous months!

DEAL: Save 10% on your subscription with coupon code SAVE10!

You’ll get a box full of Minecraft inspired goodies and official merchandise. Boxes come with a t-shirt (with a full range of youth and adult sizes available) and are packed in a collectible and reusable box.

The box also flips around and you can have your own IRL blocks!

Everything in the May box! The block refolds to be a block of grass.

The theme of the May box was PLAINS! Boxes come with a cool lenticular postcard.

This serves as the info card, which is light on item details, but it’s just like getting a card from someone living in the mysterious world of Minecraft!

It’s a blue baby sheep! I don’t see this anywhere on Amazon – I wonder if it’s a brand new plush?

Blue sheep is a total hit with the kids. I remember the first time my kids told me about what they were doing in Minecraft with breeding etc of animals and I was just basically, I don’t want to know. I had my 6 year old explain this entire box to me.

Exclusive Minecraft Sunflower Sticker: Minecraft Sunflowers always point east, so you always know where you are.

It’s a foam grass!

This is a nice little backdrop for showing off your Minecraft figures and other whatnots.

Exclusive Enamel Pin – Horse

This is a fun pin and I think the detail on the tail is really nice. My Minecraft players have mastered taming and riding! This is a nice large pin perfect for their collection.


Ink Pad & Stamp ($5?) So far every box has included a custom block with a stamp on the bottom and an ink pad (one box didn’t have the pad). ‘

The stamp makes a grass!

So neat! We could probably do without these stamps but they’re a cool accessory and with our large collection we can really do some fun IRL art.

Minecraft Plains T-Shirt

The plains shirt has a sheared sheep on a dirt hill with grass at the tippy top. My 6 year old was totally pumped.

The hero of this box is totally the blue sheep, and the shirt was a hit too. I thought the rest of the box was honestly pretty weak, especially compared with the previous box, but I honestly don’t think my child knows the difference. Adult Minecrafters are probably a little more disappointed with this box but the Minecraft obsession is still so intense with my kids we can’t help continuing to subscribe. I’m still hoping they mix it up with some different items!

    You didn’t get two blindboxes in yours? We got all of the above plus two blind boxes.

      Also to be very specific, the March box was received at the very end of April, in May for some people. However, it was still the March box (Redstone Cave). The May box was received at mid/late June for us.

        Ah – OK. Ours was REALLY delayed. In fact, we just got it today! So, maybe they were added in for our trouble.

          That is a really strong possibility! I’m glad you finally received!
