Product: Exclusive Bond - This Is Stirred T-Shirt (Loot Crate Labs)
Retail Value: $12.99 (Estimated)
This t-shirt is created by Loot Crate featuring artwork by J Salvador. The image depicts a disappointed 007 and the words "This Is Stirred". We normally set the t-shirt size to men's large in our Loot Crate account for my husband. This month, I decided to set it to my own size for fun. Loving the twist on James Bonds' favorite quote!
Product: Exclusive Field Agent Blink Time Wrist Watch (50 Fifty Gifts)
Retail Value: $10.00 (Estimated)
The watch is completely black until you press a button to display the time. It is a fun novelty item, or can be used for cosplaying. However, the rubber material does attract a lot of dust or lint, so I hesitate on touching it too much.
Product: Spy Mad Libs (Penguin Books)
Retail Value: $3.99
It's been a long time since I played with Mad Libs. I remember all the silly fun I had with friends filling in the most ridiculous words we can come up with. Our little guy is only 10 months old, so it'll be a while before he can enjoy Mad Libs.
Product: Exclusive Replica Agents of Shield Lanyard (EFX Collectibles)
Retail Value: $10.00 (Estimated)
This is an officially licensed Shield Agent badge/lanyard that’s an exact replica of the badge on screen, created from the original prop. Although I don't have much use for it besides keeping it as a collectible item, it's a great prop for cosplayers.
Product: Exclusive Paracord Survival Bracelet (Loot Crate Labs)
Retail Value: $5.00
I guess I never had to live in the wild, so I have no idea how to use a paracord. Apparently, these survival bracelets have many uses, such as: building snares & traps for food, creating a fishing line or a gill net, a survival bracelet tourniquet to stop blood flow if severely injured, and more. The more I read about the uses, the more it reminds me of Hunger Games.
Product: Exclusive Orphan Black Comic Book (IDW Comics)
Retail Value: $4.99
My husband and I watch a ton of TV shows, but we haven't had a chance to watch Orphan Black yet. I do know the basic storyline revolves around a girl and her clone doppelgangers. This is another Loot Crate exclusive variant cover comic book - adding one more to our collection!
Product: Exclusive Special Agent Dossier Notebook 2-pack (Field Notes)
Retail Value: $6.70 (Estimated)
These exclusive agent field notebooks are made by Field Notes. They are nice little notebooks to jot down notes and ideas. Of course, in the spy world, you are suppose to jot down secrets! Field Notes usually sell their notebooks in packs of 3, so I estimated the retail value.
