Supply Pod by Outer Places is a new bimonthly subscription box catering to Sci-Fi Fans. Supply Pod delivers products themed around upcoming sci-fi releases and scientific events.
This is the first box in their regular subscription (the very first Martian box was a one-time box).
The information card, plus a cute droid silhouette pin.
Everything in the Pod!
Star Wars MimoPowerTube ($29.99) Unfortunately missing from my box! The replacement has shipped right away and I think it’s an awesome sci-fi geek accessory! Some sort of fulfillment warehouse mixup but I was pleased with their response and how quickly it shipped!
The charger holds 1.5 charges AND it comes with a Micro USB cable, a Lightning adapter, and a carrying pouch! Virtually no chargers actually come with anything for your iPhone, so I was really impressed with this!
Jelly Belly Darth Vader Star Wars Grab & Go ($1.95) Yum! Galaxy mix metallic jelly beans! These are a fun treat and the box came just in time for Star Wars Day!
Star Wars Psychology: Dark Side of the Mind ($8.04) This was an interesting take on the science aspect of Star Wars – it’s very complete (and autographed) and discussed various aspects of psychology using the familiar settings and characters of Star Wars.
From its very first frame, the Star Wars series created a compelling universe with complex characters and engaging storytelling. In advance of the highly anticipated new movie, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, this collection offers a fascinating psychological analysis of every aspect of George Lucas’s richly rendered galaxy. Expert contributors led by Travis Langley ( Batman and Psychology: A Dark and Stormy Knight; The Walking Dead Psychology: Psych of the Living Dead) examine such topics as family ties, gender, prejudice, values, villainy, and heroism itself, including a look at how psychoanalysis and archetypes directly shaped the original trilogy. They shine a light into the hidden part of the psyche and reveal the ultimate lesson of Star Wars.
Perfect to sneak into the movie!
Toysmith Crystal Growing Kit ($9.66) Use the force and grow your own lightsaber! It seems a little silly but I liked how they used the fantasy story about the crystals and the Force and came up with an actual science kit to go with it!
The crystal is not, by itself, the power source of the weapon. Like the Force user, the crystal is attuned to the Force. Without that attunement, the crystal is just a rock. And while a non-Force user could probably ignite and wield a lightsaber, provided the crystal was properly attuned to the Force, all that lightsaber would be for him is a shaft of superheated plasma. But for a Jedi, the lightsaber becomes more: it is a manifestation of a Jedi’s connection to the Force – Jaden Korr
Disney Star Wars The Force Awakens BB8 & Star Wars Logo Socks: Y’all, Star Wars socks are sold out everywhere and I couldn’t find this officially licensed pair online. These are worth about ($10) and they are really fun!
This will be a really fun kit to grow a crystal with and will make a great desk accessory.
One pair of socks features the Star Wars logo, the other features BB-8! And he’s visible on the outer part of your legs when you wear the socks!
Star Wars Canon Timeline: This is really awesome. It doesn’t have anything to do with Science but Supply Pod pieced together a timeline for Star Wars using all the media (tv, film, games, comics, books) and it’s giant! If you have a hard time following all the stories and the expanded universe, you will appreciate this. It’s really giant and taller than my big kids.
I loved it!
This was a great box and really fun to get some interesting and different items than I’ve seen in other geek boxes, especially the cool poster. I was excited to get my Star Wars charger – I have a lot of phone chargers (and use them all), but none have characters on them! I also thought it was a really high quality item and it currently sells for full price at Think Geek. It WAS the power tube I was looking for!
The December box is totally sold out but you can get the X-Files box for February now! Save 10% on your first box with coupon code HELLOSUBSCRIPTION10.
