BumbleBee DVD Pack Giveaway!


I always enjoyed watching the Transformers cartoons when I was younger, and I still enjoy watching them now! I even have a Transformers tattoo that I had done several years ago. My favorite Transformer has always been BumbleBee, so I was pretty excited when I heard they were making a movie just about Bumblebee.

BumbleeBee was pretty adorable in this movie, I enjoyed his interactions with Charlie (the main girl). He has always had great interactions with the humans he has come in contact with, and has always given everyone some great laughs to watch so I liked seeing more one on one scenes with him. Certain characters I think were a little over the top/cheesy (Sorry John Cena) but over all I enjoyed the movie.

I want to give away a mini BumbleBee prize pack to one of you. The prize pack includes BumbleBee on DVD & Blu-Ray along with a comic, and a draw string backpack. This prize pack is being hosted by me.

Fangirls Review & Giveaway!

**This was not a paid post. My honest opinions were used, they are solely my own & they may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by FanGirls for the review & giveaway free of charge.**



There are a ton of products available that you can have customized to fit your interests, you can get a bag that has StarWars fabric or a pair of sneakers with a painting of your favorite Disney character so why not have some fun with your makeup packaging as well? A fun and creative shop on Etsy called Fangirls is making that a possibility by customizing some of your favorite makeup products with comic prints. Fangirls is run by artists Erin & Dara who create a number of fun comic inspired accessories.  Along with accessories they also customize makeup, at the moment they only have NYX makeup products but if you are looking for something different you can message the store owner to work out something custom (you'll just need to pay the price difference).



I've been to Comi-con and similar events in the past and there are always a lot of fun booths with various wares being sold, but I never really buy a ton however I think if I stumbled upon this table there I'd have a hard time not buying everything. Makeup and comic books? Heck yes! I have quite a few superheros and comic book characters I love so for the review I suggested that she send a surprise palette of anything she already had ready. When my package arrived I opened it to find a Jean Grey palette that consists of four shadow colors: Blue, Black, Light Orange and Yellow. I had only expected the palette, but I found a lipstick as well that features Batgirl. The packaging I had looks a bit different than the newer packaging the store owner has switched to so the image below is a sneak peak at how the new packaging looks:


Now onto the makeup! Each piece is made using recycled comics which are color coordinated with the products. Each palette will feature colors that go with the character for example if you wanted a four color palette featuring Loki it might include a green, black, gold and blue. When purchasing a piece you won't receive what is in the listing photo as they are just used for examples of what you might receive, instead you'll be able to pick out a character you'd like.

I like that not only does the palette have comic prints on the outside but they also decorated the inside and the package cover that stores the palette. Looking over the piece I couldn't find any issues, there were no bubbles or corners sticking up that might eventually lead to the comic print being ripped off on accident. There was also no funky smells from the comic prints used or the products used to attach the comic prints to the makeup palette. I like the colors selected for the Jean Grey palette though I think a slightly darker orange may have worked a little better. Looking at the batgirl lipstick, I thought it was going to be a bright red but upon applying it I found it to actually be more of a bright coral orange, not something I'd typically wear but I actually like it!




PRIZE ALERT:
One lucky winner is going to win a coupon code for $25 towards any Fangirls product(s) you'd like!

This is open to US/Canadian Residents!! Please remember if you DO NOT leave a comment on this blog post as your mandatory entry into the giveaway then all of your entries will be void.

William W. Rockwell Review & Giveaway!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others. The products mentioned below have been provided by William W. Rockwell for the review & giveaway free of charge.****


It has always been a big goal/dream of mine to be able to dress as Hawkgirl for Comicon, Since I've recently started doing yoga and trying to get into shape I've main it my main goal for the year to reach that cosplaying dream and a giant part in reaching that goal was William Rockwell who creates and sells leather masks alongside metal sculptures. Just before Thanksgiving William and I began talking about working together on a piece for my blog, originally I really liked his Angel/Devil mask and owl mask but I figured why not get crazy and ask if he would be able to make a custom Hawkgirl inspired mask for me. He delivered in a big way and now not only do I have the most important part of my cosplay outfit and a piece of artwork I'll display in my home for a very long time but now you have a chance to own one as well because he has started selling them in his shop. William is a very caring and attentive store owner, he puts a lot of thought and care into his products and aims to keep all of his customers happy. If you see a mask you love but want it in a different color you should message him as I am sure he would be more than happy to do a different paint job, or if you are looking for a custom piece you can message him to work out pricing and details. He has his main website listed above and also an etsy shop found Here.





The creation process was a lot of fun and William really spent a lot of time going over suggestions, my ideas, his ideas and images of how Hawkgirls masks have look in previous series. I also voice some of my dislikes on various masks, for example some cosplay Hawkgirl masks have it to where the tip of the nose extends out past the persons actual nose and I didn’t want that, instead I wanted it to end right when my actual nose did. This was his first cosplay piece and first time sewing a design together so we were both excited to be working on this, I had picked out several photos of mask inspiration ideas I had an William came up with a foam layout of how the mask would work, and kept me up to date on the progress. In the early stages he sent me photos of the foam layout we weren’t sure about the nose piece as the original layout had more than one piece coming together in that section and after a few tweaks the mask was perfect, the next step was paint. I let him know I wanted the mask to be gold and black because I like how her newer mask looks black in certain lighting (it is a dark green) and I thought the two colors would be easiest to work with outfit wise, the originally paint job looked like the one he is currently selling on his website but I had him change some of the gold along the wings to black and I can honestly say I am beyond happy with this mask I was very excited to try it on for the first time. Some masks don’t fit well on me because I’ve been told I have a tiny forehead(two fingers in height) and I also have high /wide cheek bones which sit uncomfortably in some masks so I was nervous but this mask fits perfectly. The masks is light weight but pretty sturdy and it has a strap that runs from the top of the back of my head down to meet with a strap that goes around the base of my skull which fits comfortably and keeps the mask in place (As a side note it was quite difficult trying to take selfies with this mask on!).





The mask is extremely well made there isn't a piece of leather or a stitch out of place, I can find nothing wrong with this mask and I have nothing but good things to say about it. The mask took 50% less time than I thought it would to create a layout, create the mask and then paint, I honestly thought it would take closer to the two month mark to complete since he was working on other orders and getting ready for a art show at the same time but he go everything finished quickly, I am very impressed with his dedication to his work and to his customers. Shipping went perfectly and the mask arrived without any issues, the mask also arrived with some yellow and orange tissue paper to help keep it safe but my kids ran off with them before I had a chance to get a photo of it plus I was overly excited to get to try my mask on. There was a lot of love and attention to detail that went into this mask and it shows with the beautiful craftsman ship you can see while looking at the mask, his beautiful wife is also a big help when it comes to packaging and mailing things out so I want to include a thank you to her as well you both make an amazing team. William sells a large assortment of leather masks from half masks to full face masks and he even has a mask that covers the whole top of your head now, he also sells statues and metal sculptures!



Prize Alert: 
One lucky winner is going to receive a 5 piece bullet ornament (.223) pack(valued at $20) and a brass patina metal masks (valued at $42.50) which are both shown above.

LootCrate February '16 Review

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by LootCrate for the review free of charge.****


It is time again to share the latest LootCrate box with all of my lovely readers. Normally I avoid spoilers for what the next month's theme will be but I couldn't help myself when I heard a rumor the February box could contain Deadpool gear and sure enough the theme for February was "Dead" and it showed Deadpool sitting down posing with a skull in hand. I was pretty excited for the 19th to arrive so that I would get my shipping notification email letting me know my goods were on the way.



When I arrived home from work I spotted the LootCrate box sitting on my porch and I couldn't wait to get inside and open it, I had a busy day that day running errands but I made sure to put aside a few extra minutes to open this right away. As soon as it was opened I could tell it was a treasure trove of Awesome.



The first thing I spotted when I opened my box was a Deadpool figure and a Deadpool shirt, and as always as a note before I go any further please keep in mind the LootCrate shirts seem to run a bit small so if you are considering subscribing order a shirt one size larger than you normally wear. The figure came in two colors, most crates had the traditional Red Deadpool but a few had a rare White suit Deadpool. As you can see above I received the red Deadpool who is fiercely adorable and now lives on my computer desk along side my Yahtzee Claptrap.



LootCrate has made it to where everyone who received the February box doesn't have to worry about dropping the soap anymore by providing everyone soap on a rope. What makes this soap on a rope more unique than the others? It is in the shape of Daryl Dixon's ear necklace from The Walking Dead season 2's episode titled "Chupacabra". This crate also included a Walking Dead big head figure in a blind pack, I received Rick. The figure is somewhat adorable but not enough to get past it being a pain in the butt, for the life of me I could not get him to stand still even with the stand he came with because he was too top heavy and kept falling over. The box also included the monthly pin and I have to say I am absolutely loving these updated pins they look 100% better than the older version of the collectible pins.


LootCrate ships to the US,Canada,The United Kingdom and Australia. Loot Crate is $13.95 a month [plus $6 S/H] the site guarantees $30+ worth of goodies in your box You can sign up for just a one time box or you can sign up for 6 months to a years worth of boxes & you can use the code “LunaMoon10” you will receive 10% off of your purchase price. What do you think might be in Next months box?

LootCrate August Review!

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by LootCrate for the review free of charge.****


I am always excited for the 19th to get here because it means my LootCrate gets shipped out and it is only a matter of a few days before it is in my mail box. I was very pleased to find out the August LootCrate theme was going to be Villains 2 because the first Villains box offered a number of great products including a great Loki item, and who doesn't like Loki? The Villains 2 crate did not disappoint, I enjoyed it so much that I couldn't contain my happiness at how wonderful the products were so I started texting my fiance photos of the products included because I knew he would love them too.





The August LootCrate included a exclusive Joker wooden figure, A Carnage
(some crates contained Venom instead) 3D mug, A Captain America Hydra Pin, The monthly collectible pin and a Los Pollos Hermanos Apron. The Carnage mug is quite large, according to my coffee maker it holds 22oz and still has enough room to add some cream and sugar to your morning coffee, it is easy to wash and looks fantastic plus it is sturdy which is a plus. The Joker wooden figure my son was excited about so I let him play with it, the figure is a fun idea and should be used for more as a collectible you can't really play with it because the wooden pieces don't stay together very well, he kept having an issue with the face falling off of the body. The apron is a one size fits all and has an adjustable strap so you can make sure you have the best fit possible. The Hydra pin and monthly collectible pin are neat and will be going into my pin collection.



LootCrate ships to the US,Canada,The United Kingdom and Australia. Loot Crate is $13.95 a month [plus $6 S/H] the site guarantees $30+ worth of goodies in your box You can sign up for just a one time box or you can sign up for 6 months to a years worth of boxes & you can use the code “LunaMoon10” you will receive 10% off of your purchase price.

Super Nails Giveaway & Review

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Super Nails for the review & giveaway free of charge.****

    

I love video games, comics and watching movies one of my all time favorites as many of you know is Batman. When I found some comic inspired nail polish by Super Nails on etsy I couldn't pass them up. KC the owner of Super Nails has allowed me to do a review & giveaway of her Comic inspired polishes, she also has a large selection of non comic book polishes for ever season. For my review I received the following polishes: Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Wonder Woman, and Loki I was sent the Mini bottles. All Super Nails polishes are 5-FREE, vegan, and free of formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), formaldehyde-resin, camphor, and carmine.



Customer service is A+ the owner is friendly, speedy at replies and talented when it comes to creating beautiful polishes. The polish arrived wrapped in bubble wrap to prevent damage during shipping, It also came with a Thank you note which included a helpful tip to "Dab" the polish on verses brushing it on. Each polish is quite unique here is a description of each; Harley Quinn: Clear polish base with black and red diamonds and glitters. Poison Ivy: Clear polish base with dense tiny holographic green for her skin, larger green hexes for leaves and red hexes for Poison Ivy's hair. Wonder Woman: Clear polish base with gold, red and blue hex glitters and white stars, just like Wonder Woman's uniform! & Loki: Clear polish with dark matte green, metallic gold and black glitters to capture Loki's theme colors. 



My personal favorite is the Poison Ivy, It suits the character perfectly I love that it has the larger green hexes for the leaves and the red speckles for her hair. I actually received a few compliments on this polish within the first few hours of wearing it, I plan on wearing it quite often and will need to buy a larger bottle soon. My second favorite is the Loki the colors mix well and I enjoy how it looks, I plan to use it over a base coat of green and black. The Harley Quinn & Wonder Woman are tied when it comes to how much I like the both of them I enjoy the Diamond and Star glitter that was in each container, how ever I wish there we a few more stars in my wonder woman bottle I couldn't for the life of me get the stars to come out of the bottle it was the only one I had an issue with. The polish applies nicely I am a little sloppy when it comes to painting my right hand but any spots that ended up on the skin were easy to clean, the polish dried fast and looked great. I applied two clear coats to keep the glitter protected, If you have read any of my polish reviews you will know that I LOVE glitter polish. The only thing I don't like with some glitter polishes is how much the glitter sticks out from the nail and leaves it feeling sandy, I didn't have that issue with the Super Nail polish I received everything laid flat and smooth. It is no lie that all polishes have a small to them sometimes when using a heavily harsh scents polish my fiance will have me go to the other side of the room as it makes his head hurt, these polishes have a light scent and can't be detected unless you place the polish right under your nose. I plan on buying a larg size version of the Poison Ivy polish and will be checking out some of her other polishes as well. Mini Polishes are $3.99 a bottle and Full sized bottles are $7.99, The Mini bottles are great for testing out each polish but if you find one you know you will be using often I suggest going for the full sized bottle. Super Nails sells Internationally so anyone is free to pick up a bottle or two.




Prize Alert:

One Lucky reader is going to win a set of 5 Mini Batman & Villains which includes: Batman, Poison Ivy, The Joker, Robin & Harley Quinn Retail Value: $17.95.

This Giveaway is open to US Readers, How ever if you are International you can enter but would need to pay the shipping charges.

Letters Earrings Review

****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used. The opinions are solely my own and may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by Letters Earring for the review free of charge.****

  

I only own one ring which is my engagement ring but I have been wanting to get more so I started searching around which is when I found Letters Earring on etsy. Letters Earring offers rings, earrings, Bracelets, Anklets and necklaces in both gold and silver they have dozens of options to choose from but the one that caught my eye was the Batman; Open Bat Symbol ring in silver.



I was recently sent a silver open bat symbol ring for review purpose here on my blog, Seeing as it shipped from South Korea it has a speedy shipping time. The ring arrived in an adorable small blue box with a bow on top, the ring was in perfect condition. The ring is light weight, the band is thin but sturdy usually with rings with a band this thin you can "smush" between your fingers and make the band bend but that isn't the case with this ring. The bat symbol itself is filed down and polished to make sure none of the edges are sharp and prevent it from catching on anything such as clothing or hair which would cause issues and possible injuries. The ring I received fits my pinky finger  perfectly I have been wearing it since I received it and have had no issues with it slipping off,catching on anything or bugging me in anyway it is a cute and simple design that fits my personality. The ring sells for $13.80 plus shipping and handling in the Letters Earring etsy shop you can choose from a silver or gold ring, please not this ring only comes in a size 6.5 US sizing. I will personally be coming back to their shop when I feel like buying more jewelry I love a few dozen of the items they sell everything is dainty and adorable which is just the way I like it. Head over to their shop to see what they have in store for you.
