First of all, I thought all these things came with a T-Shirt but I guess that was wrong. This Crate is Kaylee themed and most of the things in here are just paper. There's some flyer ads, 2 playing cards, 2 postcards, a sticker, a pin, a tiny little Simon Tam Pop!, a stuffed teddy bear, some cocktail umbrellas and a small PVC figurine.

None of these are things I would have bought for myself except for the paper umbrellas. I was actually planning on buying some to use with my Funko Legacy Kaylee figure anyway, and these are actually accurate to what she had in the show. Even though it's not my cup of tea, the PVC figurine is actually pretty nice and the paint and sculpting are both excellent. It surprisingly has a fair likeness to the actress despite it's cartoony vibe. Everything else is junk that I won't use. I'm going to try to ebay the Pop! and probably give away whatever I can to friends.

I don't know how much these cost but judging from reviews I've seen and from my experience, these Loot Crate things are pretty lame.

I love Firefly, but I just couldn't bring myself to sign up for that box.
Ive' never ordered a Loot Crate, but a LOT of my friends have been disappointed by what they've received in the Loot Crates they've ordered. Quantum Mechanix's involvement piqued my interest, but not nearly enough to actually order. They've released some great Firefly merch, but overall, their offerings are definitely hit-or-miss, so I didn't feel like rolling the dice on this box.
