Recently I received a message that the Marvel Collector Corps is ending their subscriber service. I wish that they wouldn’t stop it. I enjoyed the boxes that I received and at first they were amazing. There used to be a pin and a patch in each box but now there seems to be a either or situation. So, the quality has gone downhill a bit and I wish that they had kept the quality going. T-Shirts and pins and patches were great parts of these boxes and then sometimes there were special covers for comic books and then those stopped showing up. So now it is random stuff and much of it is exclusive but the heart just doesn’t seem to be in it like it was at first.
This month’s box was called Animal Instinct and it included some of the animal based characters from Marvel. You can see it all in the video below.
I received my Thor: Ragnarok box form Marvel Collector Corps the other day. This is a subscription service that I pay for myself. I’ve been collecting all of the Funko Pops for the Thor: Ragnarok movie ever since I learned that I was attending the Thor: Ragnarok red carpet. That was an amazing trip that I did a couple of weeks ago. I wrote about that experience in a couple of posts so far including: My Thor Ragnarok Red Carpet Experience and My Thor Ragnarok Movie Review – SPOLIER FREE. This week I am releasing some additional content from the trip including an interview with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige.
This box was pretty good overall. The pops inside were excellent but some of the additional items felt cheap and unnecessary. I am always one for a comic book with a special edition Pop cover. I have not seen one of those in a while. I also like a Pop themed tshirt and that wasn’t there. However, I did like the Hulk beanie, the color and style were perfect for me. I also liked the magnets, they are cute. The fidget spinner and deck of cards were weak. You can see my whole take on it in my video below.
