NYCC '15: Unboxing The Creepy Lootcrate
By Brian Goldberg
NYCC doesn't quite have as many exclusives as its San Diego counterpart, so I tried to get my hands on whatever I could manage while hobbling from booth to booth on a broken foot. I'm a fan of horror movies and exclusive Funko Pops. When I heard that the theme of the exclusive convention box was creepy which blended the two, I was all up on that. The crates are a limited run of 10,000 and are priced at $55 (the estimated value is $85).
My favorite crate component wasn't the pop, but the Fear in a Can. This mini sound machine looks great on the shelf.
The biggest and heaviest piece was a Mezco variant Chucky vinyl figure. It was definitely a quality figure but didn't do anything for me.
Was it worth it? I think so. This was a definite improvement from the monthly crates. Let your eyes do the walking and choose your own adventure.
