Happy Saturday, Disney Friends! This week I registered Joseph and I for a local 10k we plan to use as proof of time for next year’s runDisney Dark Side Challenge. This got me thinking about Star Wars stuff, which led me to a fantastic article to share for Saturdays With Nick! Enjoy and have a super fantastic weekend!
Subscription Box Review: Star Wars Smuggler’s Bounty
By Nick
A couple of months ago, my friend Toria shared a post on my Facebook page announcing a new mystery box collaboration between Funko Pop and Lucasfilm called Star Wars Smuggler’s Bounty.
Each box promises to contain Pop vinyl, apparel, accessories, collectibles and more, all exclusive and a $50 value!
There are 2 types of membership available.
Pirate is the recurring monthly plan which ships one box every other month, with the option to cancel anytime. This option is $25.
Smuggler is the annual plan, which is $150, and includes an exclusive gift on the anniversary of membership.
I decided to give it a try. If there are items I don’t want, I will sell them on eBay, and I went with the Smuggler option for the anniversary gift.
My bounty arrived yesterday!
Upon opening the box, a pin and a patch, with a welcome message;
Behold your first share of Smuggler’s Bounty
I opened the flap to find a lanyard, tee shirt, and 2 Pop figures.
Apparently there is a variant Tie Fighter Pilot!
I’ll likely put the lanyard and patch, and Tie Fighter Pilot on eBay. I’m wearing the shirt as I write this!
I’m holding on to Captain Phasma until after I see The Force Awakens, just in case this turns out to be a collectible I want to hold on to.
I’m very excited I decided to become a Smuggler, and I eagerly await my next bounty!
Our recurring monthly plan ships one box to you every other month. Your payment method will be automatically billed every other month. Each box contains $50 of value in exclusive, high-quality Star Wars & Funko collectible products. No fluff, no filler!
No commitments – cancel anytime.
