Right on time! Arcade Block was already there when I got home on April 30th. Perfect because I needed something to make an extremely busy month wrap up on a positive note!
Arcade Block has had some pretty awesome gear and you know what? I’m just excited! I had a really good vibe about this box!
Let’s check it out!
Arcade Block (April 2015)
Pac-Man Salt & Pepper Shakers

Arcade Block, this is what I’m talking about. Retro gaming! Pac-Man, Tetris…keep it coming! 🙂 My boyfriend and I are having a debate whether it should be our dining table decor or keep it as a collectible. Its been a few days but still undecided…
What do you think?
Skylanders Figure: Ignitor

Skylanders Figure: Ignitor
I’ve seen these Skylanders figures in stores a lot. I’ve never been quite sure how this works but no matter what, its pretty cool. We’re looking into it. For now, a spot in the display cabinet 😉
Do you know how this works? Maybe you can enlighten me a little! 🙂

Hmm…this could be useful. We’re just thinking which coat needs it.
Video Games Live: Level 4 (Audio CD)

My boyfriend and I literally massively GEEKED OUT on seeing an actual CD in the Arcade Block! And it has some awesome music. I’m not crazy, okay? Look at it! Donkey Kong Country, Metal Gear Solid 3, Final Fantasy, Uncharted 2, Zelda, Resident Evil 5, BioShock, Chrono Cross and Castlevania.. I mean, these are some pretty big titles/franchises. I haven’t quite finished listened to the whole CD yet but man, from what I’ve heard so far, its really amazing awesome!!! 🙂
What game has the best soundtrack for you?
Retro Magazine (Issue#7)

Retro Magazine
I haven’t heard of Retro Magazine before but there’s some pretty fantastic content in it. I’ve only flipped through a few pages but I’ll read through it bit by bit. This one has feature on Mortal Kombat and I’m actually been watching a lot of Youtube videos on the newest one. Its pretty fun!
Kingdom Hearts T-Shirt

Kingdom Hearts T-Shirt
This was my geek out moment. Unfortunately, the T-shirt in Arcade Block is in my boyfriend’s size so I can’t wear it but because I loved it so much, my boyfriend decided to let me use it as PJs. A fun fact is that I’m actually a HUGE fan of Kingdom Hearts. I have yet to actually finish the game on Playstation. It has nothing to do with the game being hard. I’m just really bad at gaming especially when I need to play it by myself. Haha! But, I do have a few of the games, it just waiting for me to settle down and play it. Sounds lame but its a fact that I’ve faced. Doesn’t stop the fact that I totally LOVE this! 🙂
Overall…
If I ever had a moment of regret or doubt for ordering the Arcade Block (and I don’t), this box would have turned that feeling right around! C’mon, I knew what everything in this was and I love it all! The next block has me even more excited actually because they just announced a gear from one of my favorite games EVER!!! I’ll reveal that next month but I promise you, its really cool! Oh, and the cool stuff doesn’t stop because I also ordered next month’s Nerd Block because it also has something fantastic in it! Seriously, I can’t wait for the next one!!!
*takes a deep breath* Okay, I’m breathing properly. All calmed down..kind of.
What do you think about this stuff? Anything that appeals to you more?
