June POP! in a box!

So we are into June now and I am sitting here feeling sorry for myself in silence as I have lost my voice due to an awful sore throat. It is awful, the Brand New lyrics 'Oh, my tongue's the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart' I always felt was quite fitting for me, so not talking is like hell. There are so many conversations I want to join in and people I wish to yell at.

However this isn't a post to rant and list my complaints, this a a POP! in the box post woo yeah. So we are officially half way through the year and I received my POP! in a box June

So moving onto the POP! I was SO EXCITED to open it up and find a..... drum roll please....

RIVER SONG! Seriously I have been pining over this one since the new Doctor Who ones came out so I was ecstatic to get her!


The box was in good condition no damage on it at all and River looked fab, even from inside the box!
I wasn't at all disappointed with her, I love her hair and her outfit. I think her character has been encapsulated nicely into this POP!


The POP! herself is high quality with no visual pain defects and she came on a new style stand that was actually attached to her in the box which is different to previous ones I have had with stands. 

So my Doctor Who collection is now in full swing so I will defiantly be collecting more of them in the future, fingers crossed that maybe I will get a Jack Harkness for July's POP! in a box.

May POP! in a box!

I feel like summer has already arrived it has been so warm and sunny and we are only in May, I REALLY hope this continues. In the mean time though it is POP! in a box time

I have now ventured into the vlogging world and you can see the unboxing video below, if not continue past for my photos and review.




I very excitedly opened May's POP! in a Box and I got.....


My first Doctor Who POP Funko hurrah! And what better way to start of my collection than with a Dalek. I know they are the enemy but I have a secret soft spot for them so I was so happy when I opened the box to find this little chap inside.


The box was pristine and undamaged and the POP himself was well painted and really solid too. I expected him to be much more hollow feeling but was really happy to find a very well made and painted POP inside. 

He is really cute and I find him even more adorable than I usually find Daleks.... haha I guess that isn't quite right considering we are meant to be afraid of them!

I can't wait to buy some more Doctor Who ones now, what a great excuse!

April POP! in a box!

Can you believe we are in April already? Nope, me neither. Anyhow we are and that means APRIL POP! in a box yay!

So on to the fun! I very excitedly opened the box to discover *drum roll....*


MIRROR UNIVERSE SPOCK! Hurrah! I am really pleased with him especially considering the sewing project I have been working on! I already have Spock and Scotty and very regrettably missing Kirk so mirror universe Spock is a great addition to my collection. 


Box was in good condition again so no complaints there from me at all. I really like the detailing on him and his uniform He is neatly painted and feels really sturdy which is always a plus!

I am now looking forward to see what comes in May! Hurrah.

March POP! in a box!

How on EARTH are we already in March. I swear I was waving goodbye to the summer and looking forward to the Christmas build up.

But here we are going heading into spring 2016... but not only is it Spring but a new month means NEW POP! in a box! This morning I woke up to a knock at the door and the postman handed me my March POP!

I am really enjoying getting these every month, and upon opening it I couldn't see it was indeed Star Wars related and when I took it out I was excited to see I had gotten:


Han Solo! Woohoo! I am really happy with this one as the most recent Star Wars really turned me round and into a fan. Before then I had been very much a trekkie and no interest in Star Wars but now I realised I had been very much missing out all these years! 

So I am very happy to get an older Han Solo. I can't wait to get even more and add to my Star Wars collection!


The box was in ok condition again, no real damage to it. Han is great quality and is painted well I can't see any defects on him. He is a bobble head which I do kind of find bizarre how some are and some aren't, I have to say I prefer when they aren't and have regular heads.

I am happy again with what I got and I can't wait for Aprils surprise :D

February POP! in a box!

So just to recap in case you have missed my previous review or you have no idea what POP! in a box is:
A monthly subscription where you receive POP! Funkos to your door. The great thing about this is you will never get something that you do not want. You update your list of what you currently own and thumbs up and thumbs down all the POPS! you like and dislike. You can save 20% when you sign up!
I am now in procession of Febrary's POP! Funko and I got DRUM ROLL PLEASE......

MICHONNE from the walking dead.


The box was in much better condition this time with no visible damage and also arrived quicker than January's one. I am really pleased with her, and although I think I would of preferred one of her not in a police uniform I am still happy.


I really like her hair the detailing is nice and the paint is neatly done too. My only complaint is that she doesn't stand up very well at all and doesn't come with a stand! Luckily I can prop her up against a box. 

I am glad to add to my walking dead collection as I only had two and Michonne is one of my favoruite characters so I am super happy to have her!

Have you had any February POP!s? If so let me know what ones!

POP! in a box newbie review

After debating for some time I have decided to sign up for POP IN A BOX! If you are unaware of what this is, it is a monthly subscription where you receive POP! Funkos to your door.

To sum it up quickly in case you missed my previous post:
The great thing about this is you will never get something that you do not want. You update your list of what you currently own and thumbs up and thumbs down all the POPS! you like and dislike. POP! in a box will then try and pick something off your wish list or if that is unavailable it will pick a pop that you haven’t said if you like or dislike any and if none are available they will just refund your money.
So it is win win you can’t get one you don’t like as long as you thumbs up or thumbs down the pops on the list. You also have the possibility to get limited pops or large ones all for the price of £8.49 a month plus p&p. And once you have signed up any pops you order separately you get free p&p WOO!

If you fancy giving this ago you can save 20% on your first order by clicking here

So I joined at the end of January and made it in time to get my first POP in a box in Jan! EXCITING!

I have to say it did take quite a while to come (apparently sent on the 25th Jan and arrived on the 4th Feb) but it arrived on Thursday and I excitably opened it!


AND I GOT! *drum roll please* BB-8 WOO YEAH!


I am super happy with this! I don't have any Star Wars POP!s yet so I am super happy to start my collection and what better way than with BB-8!! This was a great first POP! in a box!

I was actually really excited to open the box and I really enjoyed waiting for my POP! to come. I have to say the box was fairly damaged, and that something I have seen in a lot of reviews. Luckily I am not interested in the boxes so I am happy for it not to be pristine but I could see how people might be unhappy as there was a few dents and a small rip.


BB-8 is a lovely POP! and I am really happy with him. He has a little bobble head which I am usually not a fab of but on BB-8 it's adorable! He is a little small compared to the rest of my POP!s but I guess that adds to his adorableness! 

I really really enjoyed getting this surprise box and I cannot wait to get Februarys box!

So YAY POP! Funko you can sign up here
