My Geek Box October 2014 "Nightmare"

Received this months My Geek Box which has a "Nightmare" in honour of it being Halloween this month. I was really looking forward to this box as I love Halloween - so let's take a look inside and see what goodies it held!

First up we get the second issue of the My Geek Box magazine, again with reviews and interviews inside. Cool cover this month!

Next up is a poster with 4 classic horror characters on it.

A Zombie Zity Swobblerz. A zombie barber wobble head that I guess has an interchangeable head with other toys in the range. I can't even begin to imagine how bad a haircut you'd get off this guy...

Also got a series one Zomling.

And some sweets!!

The last small thing is a Jack Skellington magnet.

I guess the two big items this month are the last two.

Firstly is a Jason Voorhees Funko Pop vinyl figure. Which would be brilliant if I didn't already have him!

And as always, you get the monthly t-shirt. This month is a red Child's Play number with a twist on Tickle Me Elmo.

All in all, it's a pretty good box! Next month's theme is "The Best of British". Interested to see that one, hoping for some Doctor Who goodies!

Go Figure!

Zomlings In The Town Series 1

I was in Toys R Us today, and picked up a couple of small pieces. One of those pieces was a new toy that I've never seen before, a new blind bag toy called Zomlings in the Town.

Seems like these guys are in the same vein as Trash Pack toys. They're made by Magic Box Int. and it mentions on the front of the packet that there are "+100 Zomlings to collect". Wow. There were 3 choices in the Zomlings box - you can pick up one Zomling for 50p, a Zomling & a tower for £1, or a Zomling and a house for £2. I went for the middle option.

The little booklet had 1/3 on it, which is why I think I couldn't find the name of the little cowboy Zomling that I got. He came in a little blue tower that kind of looks like a jail, but it's quite a cool little thing.

The Zomling itself is a little rubber toy which is kind of cool, but I don't think I'll be picking up any more of these. To be fair, at least these seem to be more reasonably priced than something like Moshi Monsters or Trash Pack - I really only grabbed this because it was a horror looking thing that sounded like zombie!

Go Figure!
