Arcade Block is a subscription box from Nerd Block. It’s all gamer themed items, plus a shirt.

Arcade Block doesn’t theme their boxes. But, you’ll typically know at least 3 of the franchises featured before your box ships.

Each delivery includes an information card detailing the items inside.

You’ll also get a $10 voucher to the Ned Block store. Mine is free to the first use to redeem it!

Overwatch Shirt – Value $15?

This month’s exclusive shirt features a TON of Overwatch characters.

Mega Man Robot Master Field Guide – Value $13.99

This is an exclusive variant cover of the Field Guide.

This really brings me back to the old days of going to the store to buy a strategy guide for a video game that I couldn’t beat! Very fun for any Mega Man fun, even if it’s just for nostalgia.

Gameboy Flashlight Keychain – Value $10?

This exclusive item is a soft little Game Boy keychain light.

It’s got the design print all the way around the keychain.

Press down to get your light!

Assassin’s Creed Plush – Value $10-15?

This little Bleacher Creature is exclusive to Arcade Block.

Your assassin even has a removable hood.

Zelda Glass Candle Holder – Value $15-20?

The big item of the month is an exclusive glass candle holder featuring Link from Zelda.

I like the look of the stained glass window design. You might need this to light a lucky candle if you’re trying to get a Nintendo Switch this year!

Verdict: I like that 3 of the 5 items featured a classic gaming series – I tend to like that more than the new titles, but that might be because it’s what I grew up on. I’m excited to see what happens when they split this subscription into a Mature version and E for Everyone version – I can’t wait to see what they might include in the mature version!
