November’s theme was INTERGALACTIC.

Kaylee Frye Funko POP! (Retail $7.92) – There were 5 possible Firefly characters subscribers could have received. I only had Wash so far, so I was thrilled to get Kaylee!

Each SciFi Block comes with a nice card describing each item.

EXCLUSIVE Tribble Screen Cleaner (Retail $5?) – This tribble is a screen cleaner, but I’m afraid my dog will think it’s one of her toys, so this will probably end up on a shelf of collectibles. Love it.

EXCLUSIVE SciFi Block Ray Gun (Retail $2-3?) – This is a cute retro ray gun. It will also make for a cute stocking stuffer for scifi fans.

EXCLUSIVE Paranormal Investigator Patch (Retail $1?) – I don’t have any children in my life who are collecting patches yet, but this is a fun one.

SciFi Block

EXCLUSIVE Star Wars Villain Prints (Retail N/A) – I’m not really a fan of prints in sub boxes for the most part. But these. Are. Awesome. I’m definitely keeping, and probably framing, these.

EXCLUSIVE Star Wars First Order Stormtrooper Tshirt (Retail $10?) – And the best item in the box. I LOVE THIS. Having several awesome Star Wars shirts to choose from for my Star Wars viewings is a good problem to have.

Summary: This month was actually even better than last. It’s like they created this box just for me. The value was just mediocre, but the shirt, POP, and prints made this a hit for me. My biggest complaint is that this is a “November” box that didn’t arrive until December 10th. Kind of ridiculous.

Next month’s theme and hints:
