 Thanks for checking out this unboxing video of the BAMBOX and this is the December BAMBOX. Actually getting it in December, which is awesome, this stands in contrast to the horror block from NerdBlock that I just got four days prior from getting this. Before this, yes, four days right before I received this, I got my November horror block from NerdBlock. And right now I'm getting the December BAMBOX, so you do the math, I don't understand it. Anyway they did two days shipping on this, which was great because they wanted to make sure that they got all the boxes out to people before the holidays, which is awesome. So yeah, a little bit nervous about this box maybe, just because of what happened last month, the November box, the adult cartoon theme, did not go all that well with me and a lot of other people didn't really like it, but that's one bad box, I look forward to this one. This one's theme is legends and I know a few of the things they're supposed to be pulling from this box, so two of the things I'm not all that excited about because I don't know a ton about them. But there are two things I always look forward to with these boxes. One is the pin. The pin is always really cool and I'm really looking forward to it. The thing that sucked about last month for me, in addition to it just not being a very good box, was that my pin was missing, but I contacted the BAMBOX customer service, they were very good, they got me a pin very, very fast and I ended up getting the South Park pin chef, which is great, it looks great, it's cool, I love their pins. The other thing I really look forward to in these boxes are the art prints. The numbered art prints are super cool, not just because they're numbered but everyone I've seen has just been great artwork, it looks awesome, it looks amazing. Whenever I get this, I get super excited because I never know what it's going to be, the pin, the print, and anything else on top is kind of gravy if I like it. I haven't been into the comics all that much, but to each their own. So anyway, I want to get into this, but as we all know, there was beef between BAMBOX and NerdBlock and if you watched my last unboxing video where I did the horror block and that one was, there were a lot of problems with that, which was very weird because they had just called up BAMBOX and then they have a crappy horror block. So I did contact their customer service, so just so you know, I'll give you an update on how all that played out with my next actually be a normal NerdBlock which I will be getting from them because of the bad November BAMBOX because that's what they offered as part of a Shots Fired type thing. They talked some shit about BAMBOX and offered everyone who got the November BAMBOX to get a free NerdBlock, which I was like, I felt conflicted about it because I was like, it's kind of a shitty classless thing that NerdBlock's doing, calling them out like that, but at the same time I will take their box for free because I'm basically taking their money in that sense. Why wouldn't you? It's free. So I'll update you on the customer service thing, but that thing with my horror block issue is actually kind of, it's solved. So it ended up being a happy story for me, but I'll fill you in on that later. Anyway, this is all about the BAMBOX and like I said, always excited. So let's get into it. Let's see what's good. Hopefully it's really good. The other thing actually I need to say really fast is that I was a little bit weary of this box because with the adult cartoon one, they didn't hype it like barely at all. And from what I hear part of the reason was that they ended up having some licensing issues with a few items they were going to put in that box. So they really had to kind of throw it together last minute to get it out. And that's why they're saying it was not a very good box, but they didn't really hype that box. They didn't really hype this box all that much. So kind of a little nervous about that. But like I said, the pen and the art print usually are really good. So I know most likely those will at least be good. So we'll check this out. The other thing really, really, really fast is that on the box they have the thing, see where it says, right, they get all of it in there, read it. They encourage you to trade. If you get things that you don't like and you're looking for something else that's been in another BAM box or you want more of it, you can go on their site and trade. That's another really cool thing that they do that I think more of these types of boxes should do because it's something great for the community. All right, let's get in this thing on top. Legends and there's Darth Vader and I believe probably Red Sonja because I know Red Sonja was one of the things that was, you know, talked about get out paper. There's nothing in it. Now my cat can have it because she loves tissue paper. All right, let's get in here. Please, please, the pen. Thank you. Yes, the pen is in here. Thank you so much. Oh, OK, OK, OK. Interesting, interesting, got it. It took me a minute because it's a really dark. It's really dark in coloration, this pen. I'm going to have to take it out of here, cut down on the player. It's really dark in coloration and so it's kind of hard to tell what it is. But basically it's a mashup between the Winter Soldier from Captain America and the Game of Thrones and it says winter is coming, which is a fun, that's pretty fun and funny. It's a good, I got to get right in there. Can you see it? Can you see it all right? I'm sorry, my hands kind of shake, so it's hard to. It's cool. A little more crude looking than a lot of their past pens, but it's still a good looking pen. It's a great concept. I like the mashup there. That's cool. Good job. I always look forward to the pens and that's a solid, solid pen. I don't need that anymore either. All right, there's another item here that might be like a pen or something. It's in a little pouch. I guess this can be used. That's actually tied. I figured it wouldn't be tied. It's tied. The should check that it's kind of heavy, whatever. Oh, like throwing knives fully. And they're like legit. These are like ninja throwing knives basically. And these things are like legitimately sharp looking. The sides, the sides actually don't feel very sharp, but there is like a little tip. There's a thing on the tip because I guess it's kind of sharp there, but I mean, look at that. This is like literally like those ninja like throwing knives. That's interesting. I'm going to definitely have to check out the book to see like what the significance of that is, but I mean, they're cool. They're metal. They're, you know, kind of heavy as you can hear their metal. I like that they come with this little pouch to keep safe so you don't stab yourself. That's always good. Don't stab yourself, people. All right, next thing is, oh, okay. So this is a Star Wars comic and it's a Marvel comic. It is number one. It's a variant edition and it's called Vader Down, which is great because it's all about Darth Vader. It's a certificate. There's a certificate of authenticity on the back for saying it's a limited edition series because of the cover, because it's an exclusive cover, 15,000 copies made. It's not like super limited or anything, but I'm sorry, the filler is kind of crappy. I'll try and put it at the best angle, but as you can see, it's Darth Vader doing, you know, being Darth Vader-y and looking and posing and whatnot. That's cool. That'll be worth checking out. It's very timely as Rogue One just came out, which I haven't seen yet, but I will be seeing soon. So that's not bad. That's far not bad. Next item. Okay. This is one of the items that I was like, I don't know, Red Sonia. So another comic book, two comic books. Interesting. This says this is number zero. So I don't know what that means by being number zero. Maybe you'll say in their whole thing, but it's a Bambox exclusive cover at least. It's signed by Amy Chu, who I believe probably did the cover art on it and has, yep, signed by Amy Chu. Yeah, Red Sonia number zero, Bambox exclusive edition, certificate of authenticity, of course, and you can see the signature up there and it's Red Sonia. I don't know a ton about Red Sonia, only thing I know is, you know, she's linked to Conan. I think she showed up in the Conan movie and played by like Brigitte Nielsen. So that's about all I know. This will be worth checking out for that reason because I don't know much about Red Sonia, so check it out. That's fine. My thing, but it's fun. Is this the art print? Oh, okay. So I'm trying to figure out if the, oh, okay, okay, I'm like, this has got to be some sort of like mash up here. Okay, so this is a signed art print, number 351 out of 500. So that's significantly more limited than that Vader Down comic. I had to look at it. So I believe this looks like old school, you know, like Ronan from Japan, Feudal Japan. I think it's supposed to be a crossover between that and Boba Fett from Star Wars because of the face. That's my guess. Either way, this looks really cool. It looks very like old school Japanese, which I'm definitely into. I love a lot of Asian culture stuff. I mean, it is signed down here, so that looks nice. It's very nice. It's keeping with it like the art prints. This is probably my least favorite of the art prints I've gotten thus far, but it's still good. It's still quite nice. So I think it's just saying how good the art prints have been, honestly. Not that this one's terrible or anything. So let's see. There might be one more item. I think one more item and then we're done. Okay, so this is signed and I don't even know who this is. This is the other thing I was kind of like, I'm probably not going to like this. So I'm sorry. Adam from Bambox, the CEO, had said that there was going to be the signed item by someone. He kind of alluded to the fact that they're not a celebrity yet, but they kind of could be a celebrity, but they've shown up on DC's Legends of Tomorrow show, which I have not watched that show. And who knows, this person could become a big name. It's just kind of weird to me that it's like, here's a signature from a person who's not very big, showed up on a show like once or twice or something. Maybe they get big. I mean, it'd be cool for people if it did get big, but it's a little weird. Still a lot better than having a signed item by a cosplayer. I will say that much. But I might as well show you. So I don't even know who this is because I just don't have a clue. Some people, as soon as you see it, you might know. And there's two people. I'm assuming it's the female superhero there, which her costume looks stupid. I gotta be honest. It looks really simplistic and dumb and chintzy, but whatever. So this is the signed item. I'm going to have to check out all those. Is that it? That is it. And of course, as we know, they have all these cool... It looks like the inside of the last box. So a lot of cartoon stuff, which is cool. All right. So time to get out the spoiler booklet. Now the BAM Parody pens. Okay. So you could have gotten a few of them. There's a limited edition one that was like Hydra. There was a Captain America one that says, hey girl. They don't look as great as all the pens before, but they're okay. The winter is coming. The one that I actually got is probably the best one. That's the one I would have wanted to get. But you can see all the different pens there. Pretty cool. Yeah. And then obviously this would be like if you got special, you got that one and that one if you got like the real special stuff, which I'm fine not getting that. Is the Say Who's is by, it's by some dude named Nick. Where is this? It doesn't say, he's back again. We had some fun ideas for this month's pen and knew Nick was the artist. Oh, Nick Cacosa, okay. He did the South Park pens last month, so still working with him. Then we have the Vader Down comic. There isn't like a big deal. Limited to only 15,000 released. Look for the black and white cover limited to only 5,000 released. That's still not that limited. So you could have got the black and white version, which I don't see a difference there. Those two things look like the same to me. So I don't know. Whatever. I'm fine. That's fine. So in this one, so with the swords, you could either have gotten like this little throwing knives, or you could have gotten like a little sword replica. It looks like one's probably like Red Sonion, one's like Conan or something. So it doesn't really say too much about it, honestly. Oh, they're letter openers. Okay. That's cool. That's a fun letter opener. I should have thought about that, but yeah, that's fun. I don't have any cool letter openers, honestly. Then there was the, they call it the Galactic Samurai, which was the art print. It's done by artist Brian Reedy, and I got, oh, did I get a limited edition one? I did. Oh, shit. I got a limited edition one. This one is limited to only 500. Oh, I should have known that when I said 351 out of 500. Yeah. So I got a limited edition one. Awesome. I got like an upgrade. Very cool. I like that. That's super nice. And then they had, so they had a few different versions of it. They had two different poses, but then they also had black and white in that version, which was the exclusive limited one, and then they had the color version. Yeah. Actually, I do like the black and white more than the color. So I'm glad I got that. That's really super cool. Nice. Nice. I finally got like a special thing. So they got a big thing for the fact that they're doing an anniversary box next month in January. So basically the concept with that is they're bringing back some versions of things they've already had in their first year of operation, which they're really hyping the crap out of it. So that should be cool. So they're going to have prints from artists Rocky Davies and Chris Uminga. Uminga. I don't know. Either or. But I'm excited for that. That'll be cool. Then we have Red Sonia number zero signed by the writer, okay, I'm sorry, not the cover artist, the writer, Amy Chu. That's cool. So that's different. I look for a special silver signed edition numbered out of 100, and a gold signed edition numbered out of 50. Okay. Yeah. I just got the normal black signature one. So I didn't get one of the special ones, which is fine because I already got this special art print. Makes sense. Okay. Then the signature is Stargirl and her name is Sarah Gray and she was on Legends of Tomorrow. Apparently that's on the CW channel. So okay. But it's rumored that she's going to be in a spinoff show. So she might get bigger. You can also catch her this March in the upcoming Power Rangers movie playing a character named Amanda. So it looks like she's going to start getting more traction, hopefully, and then that will up in value. So once again, Sarah Gray, and it shows her, it's like a picture of her signing and everything down over here. So that's cool. There's nothing exclusive with that. And then, oh, then there was a special giveaway for like a replica sword from Lord of the Rings. And I'll just show you. They're kind of promo on that. Oh, it's a sword. I'm okay to not get it because I don't know where I'd put a sword. But at any rate, not a bad box, definitely a big improvement from last month. I don't think this is like, oh my God, it's such an amazing box. But for the fact that it's following that bad box last month and they did not hype this a whole lot, pretty good, pretty happy. The pin was cool. I'm always good, you know, down for these pins. The art print, especially since I got like a special one, was really, really super nice. The signature, I don't really care about the signature at the moment. Maybe I'll see her and stuff more and more as she, you know, gets more work and then maybe I'll care at some point. But there's potential there. The Red Sonia, I don't know much about Red Sonia, but it is signed and it's worth checking out in my opinion. And then the fact that they were able to get a limited run Marvel Star Wars comic, I think is pretty cool, especially since Rogue One just came out. So that's nice. And then obviously the letter-openers, I think the letter-openers are fun. This is definitely one of those things that, you know, they talked about cutting out a lot of the extra items, but these are definitely extra items that are cool to get. I don't have any cool letter-openers, but now I do. So that works. And the pouch is really nice, it's pretty well made. As you can see, it's like a little red velvety or silky feeling on the inside. So it's nice. Anyway, pretty good box. I'm happy with it, especially following last month. Very excited for this anniversary box because it really hype in the crap out of that. So hopefully there's no more beef going on as things go on. I think maybe there should be a comment by NerdBlock on how this box has a lot more value, so maybe they should apologize or something. But at any rate, thanks for checking out this unboxing. Very excited to see what the Bandbox keeps doing. So thank you so much for checking this out and keep it brutal.
