Each month comes with a card to detail each item inside. This month's theme was "Parody". I was very very excited for this one since it featured a lot of Weird Al!
Tacky Shirt - Value $10?
I have always, and will always, love Weird Al. I could watch UHF on repeat. His most recent album, Mandatory Fun was really a reminder to me of why I love him so much. It all came back to me the first time I watched to video for the song that this shirt is based on - Tacky!
SO GOOD!
Weird Al Simpsons Figure - Value $15-30?
I can't really get a good sense of value on this item. The non-exclusive is very expensive on Amazon, so I'm assuming the non-exclusive is a bit rare - so this exclusive must be even a bit more rare. Such an awesome exclusive to get for Nerd Block! It includes an accordion - of course - and stands about 5 inches tall!
Family Guy Koozie - Value $3-5?
The next item is a Family Guy drink koozie featuring the whole cast. Heading into summer, I can use this.
Archer Ice Cube Tray - Value $11.99 on Amazon
Archer is back for season 7 right now, so this is good timing to get an item in the box! While an ice cube tray isn't my favorite item for any fandom - It still can be put to go use as the weather heats up!
Weird Al: The Book - Value $20+?
This is an exclusive book for Nerd Block!! I'm so excited to sit down and read this - just flipping through brought back some great memories of my childhood!
But none more memorable for Off The Deep End for me! I can remember listening to this over and over and over. My parents probably hate Weird Al.
Spaceballs Art Print - Value $10?
The final item is an ode to a classic - Spaceballs! But, now I wish The Schwartz Awakens was a real thing! There were 3 possible prints to receive.

If you've never watched this movie. Stop reading this review and go watch it.
Verdict: I absolutely love this month's Nerd Block - but I'm willing to bet that it's not a universal favorite. You have to really like Weird Al (which I do) to love this month's box. I love all the Weird Al items this month, and the other items are usable for me, even though they weren't items I was over-the-moon about.
