Another fun Loot Crate has arrived on my doorstep. This time around the theme is Battle and inside there are items representing fun lines and their battles. You can see a bunch of things in the image above and I have shot a few of the items in close up so you can see them clearer. The only thing I didn’t get a very good shot of was the HALO guy from MEGA Bloks. He was a brown metallic figure and very cool. Click the “Read More” Button to see the rest of the items. That is, after you watch the video.
The Mega Man Replica Helmet is a pretty nice display item for fans of the Mega Man franchise. I still remember playing the very first Mega Man game on my Nintendo NES.
Another great shirt from Loot Crate. I love the half Pirate vs the Half Ninja. You can show your support for either side by taking photos and stating #LootPirate or #LootNinja.
This month’s magazine cover is nice and the magazine cover is on heavier stock because the back page can be punched out to use with the Loot Crate box to play Mega Man vs Street Fighter.
The Loot Crate Box will double for a scene where you can pit Mega Man against Ryu from Street Fighter.
Mega Man and Ryu figures that you can punch out of the Loot Crate Magazine.
Back at Time to Play Holiday Showcase I met with my wonderful contact at MEGA Bloks. She showed me the new products and we talked about some MEGA Bloks for Andrew. He’s got some ability to play with the smaller MEGA Bloks but the larger blocks make much more sense. They are bigger, brighter and easier for him to manipulate. there will be time for the smaller MEGA Bloks but for now he’s much more suited for the First Builders sets.
I was right about that because when we played with the First Builders Fast Tracks Raceway he was very excited. He helped me pick out all the pieces to build and then raced the cars over and over. The MEGA Bloks that came with this set fit with many other MEGA Bloks that we have around the house, too. As we play more I’m sure that he’ll be trying to figure out more exciting ramps and maybe jumps or other things for the cars to do.
the cars are really cute. They are bright and colorful. They can be taken apart and swapped with other car parts in the First Builders line. I was in our local Target the other day and saw this set as well as another set that had rescue vehicles in it. That was the Fast Tracks Rescue Team and I think it would compliment this set perfectly. More track is never a bad thing. This is a set that Andrew will build upon as he gains more skills with MEGA Bloks. A very nice set for kids 1-5.
