I Want an 80’s Cartoon Themed Loot Crate


Photo-A-Day #3215

Loot Crate is one of the best subscription services that are out there for geeks and gamers. They are tuned in to social media as well as all things geek culture. They’ve done all sorts of themed crates but what I most want to see is an 80s Cartoon Themed crate. There are so many companies making fun geek things for 80s nostalgia. One of the companies is The Loyal Subjects. They have great Transformers and G.I. Joe figures. They should look at Red Bubble as well because of the T-Shirts and stickers that they offer.

Funko is a company that Loot Crate works with very often. I’ve gotten some fantastic Funko stuff from my Loot Crates. They have some Masters of the Universe figures, including a Papercraft He-Man and Pop Vinyl figures. They also have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Papercraft and Pop Vinyl figures.

I’m sure that there are other companies that are producing great 80s related toys, t-shirts and stickers. And I know that Loot Crate has a great team of people who can find all the best stuff. I’m just putting the suggestion out there.

Lion-O Likes What I Got From Loot Crate


Photo-A-Day #2941

I love little toys, games, action figures and statues. My work desk is covered with them. Now that I’ve been getting cool products from Loot Crate my desk has started getting even more filled with awesome stuff. Don’t worry I still have photos of the family on the desk as well.

On my desk I have the whole Thundercats team from the reboot of the series a year or so ago. I liked the redesigns of the characters and really liked the figures. So, last night, I was looking at the Space Invaders candy tin I got from Loot Crate and it was the perfect height for Lion-O to use it to play with. I quickly shot a photo of it and posted it via Instagram. I set that up again but this time with some other figures in the background. They probably aren’t going to get a chance to play since instead of a quarter on the game, Lion-O has placed the Sword of Omens on the game cabinet and I’m pretty sure that trumps any next game quarters.

Well, maybe the Sword of Grayskull has a chance.
