This review is from: Mega Man Mini Helmet Replica Grey Nov Loot Crate Exclusive Capcom Smash Bros.
Loot Crate is a monthly service in which you receive geek-friendly merchandise at a discount, grouped around a particular theme. This month’s theme was Battle, which is pretty much a video game focus on a handful of first-person shooters and scrolling beat-em-ups. I divvy up the Crate amongst my seven-year-old boy and four-year-old girl. The girl wanted the helmet...until she opened the box.
As my daughter put it, "where's the rest of him?" This is another one of those collectibles, like the coin, that doesn't really do anything. For a crate all about battling, there's a remarkable number of non-functioning items, and this helmet is a new low. It's not a Mega Man figure, it's just his helmet. That's it. Just a helmet.
Oh you can get a variety of Mega Man 2 colors (red, green, blue, gray), but it's JUST A HELMET. It comes with a stand, so you can show your helmet off. You can't play with this (or even beat someone up with it, although I suppose if you chuck it at a sibling hard enough it will make a dent), so it gets one star.
