TeeBlox is a US based subscription service which ships a T-Shirt and some other small items to your door each month.
This is a smaller subscription, so items don’t arrive in a box, but instead in a plastic envelope. That’s great for me, as this fits into my letterbox (something very rare across the subscription world).
TeeBlox offer a variety of themes to choose from. I went for the Movies and TV Shows package, although I’ve never been all that sure that the theme is that closely adhered to with the contents.
All of the T-Shirts are official stock. Unlike others subscriptions, they aren’t produced exclusively for the boxes. That does mean that different people ordering this same TeeBlox may well have received different items. I also know of people who order several of these each month as they’re unlikely to get duplicates, particularly if they order across several themes.
With this being a light shipping item, delivery always seems to be fast, with this arriving within a week from the US shipping date.
The standard pricing for this subscription is $25 USD (£20 GBP) when paid on a monthly basis. I received a discount by ordering during a sale and paying for a year’s subscription in advance.
With this subscription being unique for every buyer, it doesn’t come with an information card.
Box Contents
Homestuck T-Shirt
I had no idea what this T-Shirt was when unpacking this Tee-Blox. Had the name not been included inside the T-Shirt, I’d probably still be none the wiser.
From what I can see, this is a webcomic with an interesting premise, although I can’t see anything to suggest that it’s become a Movie or a TV show.
Despite all that, it is rather a cool fantasy design.
I value this at the T-Shirt standard of $10 USD.
Phantom Lady and Doll Man Comic
This comic arrived in a rather damaged state, creased and unbagged.
This is the fourth in a four issue series, originally printed in 2012.
Because of the state of it, I expect that it will end up in the recycling after a quick browse.
I’ll value this at $1 USD.
Harley Quinn Badge
A simple and neat little badge, which does the job of adding another item to the package.
I value this at $1 USD.

Box Review
A bit more detective work than usual this time to work out the details of the items. There is some interesting stuff here, although I would prefer if this relating more closely to the theme.
My total value is $12 USD, lower than usual due to the comic damage and probably not helped by not knowing the T-Shirt franchise. With that said, it is a decent design and I’m sure that many geek box fans will have been very happy to have received this.
I think I’d have been more disappointed had I paid full price for this, but as I actually paid less, I’m still happy with this one.
Where you’ll get the most value is if you’re subscribing from the US. The TeeBlox price drops a lot due to the lower shipping costs. This is a subscription worth considering for UK buyers, but a much easier buying decision for those in the US.
TeeBlox has since stopped running, so the subscription link that originally sat here has been retired. You can still browse every TeeBlox review on this site.
