Hey Everyone!
Unfortunately this will be my last post for Nerd Block as I have decided to cancel this subscription due to its lacklustre boxes. I was very happy with it at the beginning of the year but unfortunately these boxes throughout the months have left me with nothing but a bitter taste in my mouth.
Reasons for me cancelling:
1. Box contained random items at times more suitable for children.
2. They charge you in USD yet they are a Canadian Company. With shipping this box comes up to $40 CDN yet the box never comes out to more than $30
3. They started making their own products and sticking their logo on it. I don't think companies like this should consider one of their items in box to be something they make: Stress balls, Pens, Desk Decorations.
4. Overall disappointment with what is in the box.
What is Nerd Block?
Nerd Block is a monthly mystery package delivered right to your door filled with nerdy apparel, toys, and collectables! Every Nerd Block comes with a custom t-shirt (in your size) and 4-6 epic items for you to tear into!
Here is what I got in my September Nerd Block:

Here is what I got in my September Nerd Block:
TMNT Boxos: FUNKO , $10
I have to say that these are super cute and great if you have a lot of room to display these. They are made out of paper and you fold them together. I would highly suggest these to kids. They are adorable and have so much detail. Funko never fails to impress!
Chlamydia, Giant Microbes, $10
Okay this is the most random thing ever. I honestly don't get it. Why did we get this? When I got their "Nerd Block is going to give you an STD" I was KINDA creeped out. Although this is a really cute plushie, I would never think of this for the box.
DC Scribblenauts Unmasked Blind Mini Figures, $5
I really enjoy blind boxes. They are the best surprises. This is a play off of Scribblenauts but in DC form. I got the Joker but I must warn you these vinyls are so poorly made. I broke Jokers leg by moving it and his paint is so off.
Marvel Lego Blind Bag, $3
These are pretty standard and are really well made. I would suggest these to anyone who loves Lego or Megablocks.
Nerd Block Stress Brain, $1
To celebrate their birthday they included a branded stress brain. Not very destressing since I could not really squeeze it LOL

Shirt Punch: Sounds of the Galaxy T-Shirt $15
This is probably the best thing out of that box. I really like the shirt and will be using it.
Overall: 2/5
Goodbye Nerd Block. Thanks for the experience! I don't think I need to say much more about this box. Total disappointment and just not worth it.
Did you get a Nerd Block this month? What did you think?
