The 'Despair' theme stuck to Halloween a bit and featured The Ghostbusters, The Walking Dead, The Nightmare Before Halloween, and (curveball!) Batman vs. Superman.
Every box comes with an information card to detail the items in the box.
Each delivery comes with a themed button as well. We got two by accident!
Ghostbusters/Nightmare Before Christmas Shirt - Value $15?
AWESOME design this month! Just from a Ghostbusters fan perspective - I'm loving this! Plus, it's fun how they integrated The Nightmare Before Christmas into the design.
Rick Grimes Dorbz Figure - Value $8 on Amazon (not as an add-on)
Everyone gets a Rick Grimes Dorbz figure to get you ready for the All Out War season coming up - one that comic readers have been waiting for!
I've grown to really like the Dorbz figure line. They even just feel like a quality made product with their weight - and they've got some fun designs that aren't available in POP form!
There are a few in this series to collect - but worry not, I'm sure there are much more to come.
Batman vs Superman Mighty Mini's - Value $7 on Amazon
You'll get a small figure form series 2 of the Batman vs Superman Mighty Mini line.
I got this little grey Batman figure.
There are a lot of figures to collect if you like them - they aren't really my style, though.
Nightmare Before Christmas Sticker - Value $2-3?
You'll get a large sticker showing off that classic style of Nightmare Before Christmas.
Halloween Tattoos - Value $2-3?
The last item in the box is a temporary tattoo sheet featuring Halloween related items - including Casper!
Verdict: I'm always excited to get a new Funko item into my collection - that combined with the awesome shirt makes this month a win for me. That being said, the reminding items did sort of feel like toss-in items, in my opinion. Still, overall, I liked the big ticket items.
