Each month, you'll receive 5 exclusive prints from Shirt Block. There isn't a theme, though, so selections can be from numerous fandoms.

It always includes a card that details all 5 shirts.

I'm Still Free - Value $15?

The first shirt I saw this month features the famous lyrics to the Firefly theme song. It also shows off a cloud-like Serenity ship!

Furday The 13th Shirt - Value $15?

This month's spotlight shirt is from Vincent Trinidad. His design features Jason Vorhees in cat form - this kind of feels like a Friday the 13th and Pet Sematary mashup to me.

Marvel Classic: The Avengers Shirt - Value $15?

This is the third month in a row that a Marvel shirt was included (you won't see me complaining). This month features the classic Avengers team - including Wasp!

Chocobo Racing - Value $15?

This speedy, flightless, bird is from Final Fantasy. This is a fun shirt because any Final Fantasy player will immediately get the reference.

Bates Mansion - Value $15?

Bates Mansion gets the Disney treatment! I've never been a fan of any of the Psycho movies or Bates Motel series - so this is the only shirt that missed the mark for me this month.

Verdict: While 5 shirts a lot every month, especially if you're subscribing to other geek boxes and almost certainly getting a shirt that month, the shirts in the past 3 boxes have been great. It's a nice quality shirt and I've enjoyed the graphic design of the shirts more than the typical geek box shirt - but I'm not sure if that will push you over the edge for this subscription if you're getting shirts every month anyways.

Awesome shirts 🙂
Does the coupon code still work? When I tried it, it says Coupon code “NERDADDICTION” is not valid.

This is working again as of right now. Thanks for the heads up!

I reached out to them – looks like it may have been removed when they launched their new site. I’ll update this when I hear back. Thanks!

Love the Firefly one! I’d get it just for that 🙂 and my hubby is a total tee shirt guy, and lovable geek so he’d love this too. How’s the fit/sizing and quality in general?

They are Gildan tees, if that helps at all. The sizing is what I’d expect – the 2XL fits as expected on me. The quality is good, it’s 100% cotton but not super soft – they have tags, too, but it’s marked as a tear-away tag, so they’re easily removed. Hope that helps!

The only one I’d be interested in is the Bates one :p

I feel pretty good about skipping this month other than that awesome shirt mashing-up a cute cat and, “Friday the 13th.” I am gonna have to swap for that!
