You really can’t go wrong with Infinity Crates, an excellent UK based monthly box that personalises some of its items based on your interests.
The August 2015 box arrived quickly as always, although this review is slightly delayed as I was away at the time of delivery and am only just catching up. No issues with packaging, with the simple brown box arriving intact and packed full of items.
Delivery in the UK on a rolling monthly basis is £16.99 GBP (that’s about $27 USD). Discounts are available for longer subscriptions. The likely value is good for a box guaranteed to contain a POP! Vinyl and a T-Shirt.
The August 2015 theme was Unity, which offered lots of potential.
Box Contents
Doctor Who Eleventh Doctor POP! Vinyl
I’ll start this review with my favourite item. This is the Eleventh Doctor, as played on TV by Matt Smith and it’s quite a charming item.
These Eleventh Doctor POP! Vinyls sell for about $10 USD on Amazon.com.
Hope to get another Doctor Who POP! in the September box from Infinity Crates.
Justice League T-Shirt
This is a simple design and I presume it is an exclusive.
The T-Shirt background is light blue, which isn’t obvious from the photo.
I like the mix of colours on the T-Shirt, although the background colour isn’t one of my favourites.
I value this at the T-Shirt standard of $10 USD.
Unity Poster
Another well-crafted colourful poster, which I presume is an exclusive. I do like the way that Infinity Crates have increased the value of their own brand items in recent months.
I value these small posters at $2 USD.
Suicide Squad Zip Pull
I can’t bring myself to say Zipper Pull for a UK box, even though that’s how this was listed on the information card.
I don’t have an immediate use for this, but it’s a decent enough filler item.
I’ll estimate the value at $2 USD.
Adventure Time Lanyard
A fun TV show which I haven’t seen enough of.
I don’t often wear lanyards, but this is one of the best one I’ve had in these geek mystery boxes. A cool design.
A similar Adventure Time lanyard sells on Amazon.com for $6 USD.
Despicable Me Slinky
I haven’t seen the movie, but this is another fun item.
This is a slinky, a spring which you start at the top of the stairs, pull back and the motion will carry it downwards, one step at a time. I remember having a lot of fun with these in my younger days.
This will certainly get some play.
The Despicable Me Spring sells for $7 USD on Amazon.com.

Box Review
Another very good box from Infinity Crates.
I make this $37 USD of value, which is above the cost price of the box and which comes with very little filler.
The stand out item is the Doctor Who POP! Vinyl. Being a UK box, I don’t think that Infinity Crates can go far wrong with including Doctor Who items, but there were several other possible POP!s that subscribers could have received.
I also like the Slinky and there are some good fun items in there.
I’ll close this review by saying that I’m looking forward to the September box. This is always one of the most fun boxes to open.
Infinity Crates has since stopped running, so the subscription link that originally sat here has been retired. You can still browse every Infinity Crates review on this site.
