Loot Crate is one of the best subscription services that are out there for geeks and gamers. They are tuned in to social media as well as all things geek culture. They’ve done all sorts of themed crates but what I most want to see is an 80s Cartoon Themed crate. There are so many companies making fun geek things for 80s nostalgia. One of the companies is The Loyal Subjects. They have great Transformers and G.I. Joe figures. They should look at Red Bubble as well because of the T-Shirts and stickers that they offer.

Funko is a company that Loot Crate works with very often. I’ve gotten some fantastic Funko stuff from my Loot Crates. They have some Masters of the Universe figures, including a Papercraft He-Man and Pop Vinyl figures. They also have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Papercraft and Pop Vinyl figures.

I’m sure that there are other companies that are producing great 80s related toys, t-shirts and stickers. And I know that Loot Crate has a great team of people who can find all the best stuff. I’m just putting the suggestion out there.
