Decmber Horror Block...

Ok so I am gonna just do a quick post to show yall what I got this month. Been way busy and I am behind on so very much since this promotion.
Anyway here is this month's block....
Redrum! Redrum! This month's shirt is an uber cool shirt from the Shining and I love it. The material is a bit softer than those in the past and much as I love black shirts it was a nice change of pace.
Totally had to rock it that day :P
Next is a Funk Pop! This one is from the Universal Monsters line. Super stoked about this cause I just got these bad boys from friends for xmas and he will fit in nicely with them...
So this thing had me cracking up...It is hand sanitizer. But I know I am not the only one who finds the name hilarious!!
So the Poltergeist mouse pad is a little on the small side but it sure is wicked!
Back to Rue Morgue magazine this month. I honestly prefer Fangoria but this one is good too ;)
Finally there was a stress ball type skeleton...
Seriously amused that he has maggots in his eyes LOL...
Well that is it for this month. Can't wait to see what comes next month!!

September Horror Block

Greeting boys and Ghouls! So this month I am trying to keep somewhat on track blogging wise and I wanted to go ahead and get this month's Horror Block posted. Now since the box ships on the 25th of each month Horror Block took the initiative to go ahead and make this month's box all about Halloween so everyone would get the box before the holiday. Great planning on their part. Hopefully we still get some halloween goodies next month too but after seeing this box I know why they choose to do things this way. This months box had some really "killer items"!!

Let's start off with the "Halloween" Items shall we?

 
Ok so basically I got a full "simple" halloween costume!! How freakin awesome is the Iron Maiden Eddie mask!! I dunno what I am gonna do but I am gonna find some way to display him! This is not just a cheapie mask either! It is a nice latex full head mask. The shirt is made to match the mask. Upon checking around I found the set goes from approximately $79.95!! Now like others I was really hoping for some Freddy stuff but being a metal head I thought this was a pretty awesome thing to find in my box. There was also a pack of temporary tats that were scars and wounds. Pretty standard for a halloween horror box but still pretty cool.

Also as you can see this is not the usual Rue Morgue we get every month. This Horror Movie Heroes edition features all sorts of interviews and sure for Directors, Producers, Writers and more in the horror genre. Dunno about you but I found this quite intriguing.  


Seriously...How freakin amazing is this shirt!! I love IT! As most of you know I am quite obsessed with carnival and amusement items as well so I love the design is something like and old carni banner! 

So yea...this month Horror Block nailed it! Still hoping for more Halloween goodies this month as well but in the meantime keep up the awesome job!!

Nerd Block: Horror Block

Ok so when I heard Nerd Block was starting a new box called Horror Block I knew I had to sign up. Hell I signed up almost 3 months ago so I would get this June box LOL. This box is a little more expensive than Box Of Dread but value wise they are right on par. Where BOD includes shipping in the $20 fee Nerd Block does not. Horror Block is $19.99 plus shipping (Which varies depending on where you live.) Horror Block is based in Canada so our friends up north can order this box as well!! Also price can vary just slightly. Horror Block always includes a shirt and for the larger sizes there is a small upgrade fee. Personally I love Horror tees and usually ones in womens styles are hard to find so this was a HUGE selling point for me. Anyway on with the box...
First thing I notice is this is not just a plain package. Horror block has taken the time to customize the box. Not something at all that would affect my opinion but just saying the box was way cool...

First off one thing I knew was coming was the current issue of Rue Mourge magazine. Horror Block has partnered with them so you will get the current issue in each box. So if you are a current subscriber you might want to consider that before renewing your subscription...
Next are the little filler items...These were kinda cool for filler. I got a bloody soap...it looks normal but turns red when you wash with it. Also I got some little horror movie decals. They can go on my phone/tablet/etc.
Then there was a Mystery Mini from Funko. I really love getting these guys but I am worried I will end up with doubles if the box services keep sending them...
Let's see what we got...
Ok so not a double but my least favorite of the series. Not a real big fan of Scream but hey...the fun of these guys is not knowing :P

And we got a full size POP figure from the Funko Walking Dead Series. Bit disappointed in the one I got but she is still awful cool...

And finally the t shirt. As I said you are guaranteed a shirt each month but you don't know what it is til you get it. I chose to get the womens fitted shirts in my box.
 And OMG!!! HOWFUCKINGAWESOME!! The first shirt is of course one of my very favorite characters!! I feel like I read something saying to order a size up but I ordered my size and it fit perfect!!

Overall super stoked with this first box. Got a few things I could do with or without but honestly I woulda payed the full price for just the shirt!! Super happy. Not sure if I will get the box next month due to my move but I will subscribe again as soon as I am able too ;)
