UK Geeky Goodies!
Dark Maul Mousepad
Lenticular mousepad with a rubber bottom. May use it for my Star Wars display and collectibles since I'm not in immediate need of a mousepad at the moment.
Inflatable Adventure Time Sword
Ha, ha. I'm actually fond of this.
Pac Man Keychain Bottle Opener
Love this
Nerds Candies
Candy is always appreciated ♥
Fallout 4 Mug
Holy balls this is my new favourite mug!
Marvel Superhero Vs Villains Playing Cards
Not familiar with this card game but it appears to be akin to games along the D&D and Pokemon vein. The artwork is amazing.

Cheeky, dark humour. Love it.

Loot Crate November 'Combat'
With teasers claiming loot from Fallout 4, Street Fighter and Blizzard, I'm excited it's finally here!
Exclusive Cute But Deadly Magnet Set
Weak, thin magnets. Won't hold anything but will look good wherever they go
Exclusive Fallout 4 Vault Boy Bobble Head
Holy balls! How awesome is that?
TMNT Shredder Sunglasses
Bulky and not for me. Not sure what the surge of interest in TMNT is all of the sudden but it is what it is.
The Hunger Games Mockingjay Part 2 Pin
For fans of The Hunger Games, it's a heavy cast pin.
Exclusive Street Fighter Hyper Looting Comic Book
As a fan of both comics and Street Fighter, I like it. Eiren pointed out that the Street Fighter item was hyped this month and it turned out to be just a comic. It's hit or miss but I do agree that a comic is not a 'showcase loot item'. This has happened with many other sub boxes where the hyped loot has been a sticker (ugh) or a pin (UGH). It happens. Either way, I dig the comic book.
Cute But Deadly Vinyl Mystery Figures
I didn't know these existed! Mystery box!
Combat Button
What Loot Crate did extremely well this month is include 'Re-gift Tags'. This is brilliant for the upcoming gift-giving season. I trade and re-gift quite a bit and these tags are perfect. More boxes should include them.

Indie Box November 'Axiom Verge'
Bring Back The Box!
Tom Happ's Axiom Verge headlines this month. AV is an action-adventure game along the vein of 'Metroidvania'. I haven't been able to put down Fallout 4 so I will have to give this game a go as soon as my Wasteland hype subsides.
What's in the box???
USB cartridge
Contains Axiom Verge for Windows, Mac or Linux. DRM free in a nifty case.
Instruction Manual
Makes navigating Sudra slightly easier (Sudra is massive from what I've seen)
IndieBox Decal
Show off your indie support!
Axiom Verge Soundtrack
Will have to give a listen. Tunes to accompany game play are always a plus in my book
Elsenova Bookend
A custom bookend. It has a bit of weight, the bulk being in Elsenova's moulded head. There are two parts-base and stand- that seat together. They do not secure together (doesn't snap or lock into place) so exercise caution when handling the two as a unit. Attractive bookend nevertheless.
Axiom Verge Decal
Show off your AV support!
Axiom Verge Map Poster
Massive map, massive game experience to be had.
IndieBox Newsletter
The oft discarded insert that details the contents of the box, game developer and other tidbits.
Final Verdict: For 20$, IndieBox really is a steal. You get a DRM copy as well as a Steam copy if you are so inclined to share. The extras are a very nice addition to any collector and lover of indie games. The bookend is superbly crafted that looks great on display. I watched some game play of AV and it looks amazing.

1UP Box November 'Power'
The little green box of happiness
What's in the box???
1 Funko Mopeez
Their adorable mopey mugs make me happy. Spidey's sappy mug makes me happy.
2 Starwars Puzzle (1 of 2)
More Starwars goodies to keep us busy until the film is released.
3 Harley Quinn Air (Freshener) Offender
Geeks and gamers apparently stink to high Hell and the scent coming off this one is ghastly. It offends my nostrils terribly. It's combination of cherry, vanilla, and two-stroke...lovely.
4 Dragon Ball Sticker
Goku might have your back with this decal
5 DC Buildable Figures
I have a Batman one somewhere in my collection. They are similar to ones you get in the market vending machines. The globe heads snaps together with a notch for the head to fit snug. The Green Lantern is a welcome addition.
6 Over 9000 Tee
I can't begin to describe how much I adore this design.
Monthly Button
As a button snob, I will admit that this one has a cool design. It's The Flash, cmon. In the end, it's still just a button.

Z BOX November 'Time Travel'
Marty McFly Exclusive POP!, Graphic Novel, Blink Time Watch, Dr. Who Socks, Nifty Box
Bonus Item: The Almanac (it's really a comic!)
Geek Fuel November
The Red Box of Happiness is here!
Mockingjay Decal
Pac Man Salt and Pepper Shakers
Ceramic Inkie and Pinky shakers that will make your table setting jealous
Ghostbusters Playing Cards
30th Anniversary deck.
War Never Changes Propaganda Poster (Fallout 4)
I immediately unrolled this to flatten it for framing. It is a nice weight to it somewhere between basic poster paper and cardstock.
How Video Games are Made Mini Book & Defense Grid 2 Game Download
Very nice little article/interview on how DG2 was made. I haven't been able to put down Fallout 4 since the 10th so I have to give the game a go at a later time.
Fallout 4 Security Key Card & Giveaway
Pretty neat little CAC card that has a code for an online Fallout giveaway. Geek Fuel is making a habit of incorporating these hidden giveaways in their boxes and I like it.

Mockingjay Decal
Hunger Games fans can adorn their belongings with the iconic Mockingjay emblem.
