May’s 1Up Box Reviewed by Jordan:
Jordan was recently provided a 1UpBox for his review. The opinions stated here are all his (and mine).
“Mama, Mama, I just watched the COOLEST epic unboxing EVER by EvanTubeHD. Come watch! NOW!” Jordan is our little tech-savvy guy, so I was not the least bit surprised when he showed me 1UpBoxes and that they contained everything in this world that he holds dear!
What is “1UpBox”?
1UpBox is a monthly subscription box of “epic gear for geeks and gamers” according to their website. In other words: awesome goodies for kids who love video games. Each box contains fun stuff valued at $40, which includes a guaranteed cool exclusive t-shirt. The boxes have a monthly theme, which in May was “Sidekick” and in June is “Arcade.”
Subscription boxes are such a great gift idea for kids. The anticipation and the element of surprise is half the fun. I found myself watching the mail box daily, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the little green box. Jordan’s excitement was really contagious. Seeing his smile and watching him rip it open as soon as it arrived was well worth the wait.
May’s theme “Sidekick” couldn’t be more perfect for our computer-game-super-hero-loving little guy. He is his older brother’s sidekick, or maybe it’s the other way around. Either way – with four boys there is never a shortage of sidekicks in our house.
Watch Jordan’s epic unboxing and review of his first 1UpBox. Please, (I beg you), follow our YouTube channel. He is REALLY hoping to get subscribers, and so far I am the only one!
Epic Unboxing Video:
Jordan’s opinion of the content, as if his facial expressions in the video didn’t say it all:
- Plush Adventure Time BMO: This plush guy is bigger than we expected and perfect for cuddling, which of course 6 year old boys will never admit. The quality is great and it can definitely hold up to lots of love from the younger brothers too.
- Sidekick dog tag: Necklaces, especially dog tags are so cool. Jordan is wearing this every chance he gets. It’s green metal with a long chain, absolutely perfect to make you look like a strong sidekick!
- Beep Boop drawstring back pack: Jordan’s very first comment was that this back pack is perfect for his next field trip. You can never have too many of these bags, for sporting events, quick day trips and – like Jordan said, field trips!
- Love My Sidekick wristband: Just like the dog tag necklace, this wristband makes every little sidekick look a bit tougher than he actually is!
- Jack of Hearts decal: Kids can never have too many stickers, so that tells you how delighted Jordan was with this item! (He was THRILLED)
- Black Fist Bump t-shirt: This is the best part about 1UpBox. Every month you are assured to get a new high quality cotton t-shirt in the size you indicated at the time of your order. This shirt has BMO giving some well-known video game character a fist bump. (I would know the name of the character if I was a bit cooler and geekier.) Take my word for it, it was an awesome shirt and Jordan was SUPER HAPPY.
Verdict:
The products in the 1UpBox were of great quality, good number of items and overall the experience was exactly what Jordan had hoped for. We look forward to reviewing June’s box with the theme “Arcade!”
Stay tuned for more epic unboxings from Jordan. (Please remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel. You can always say that you knew us “back when”… you know, in case we make it big!)
