First up on the list is a very cool Claptrap bottle opener. The bottle opener is brushed in chrome silver and has some weight to it. It’s much prettier in person. I promise.

Second item in the crate is another Loot Crate exclusive. This Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Adam Jensen Figure is not only a mouthful, but is also a pretty neat exclusive for any Deus Ex fans out there. The figure also features a special QR code at the base!

Next up is a home run for all the Destiny fans out there. This Loot Crate exclusive t-shirt features a Hunter, Titan, and a Warlock. The shirt is 100% cotton and is perfect to wear during a 10-hour raid with your inexperienced friends who desperately want in on all the raid action.

Hey! Did you hear Cliffy B is working on a new game? Well now you do! Loot Crate is helping spread the word about Cliffy’s new game, Lawbreakers. This crate features a snapback hat made of twill and sports black and red.

One of my favorite items in this month’s crate is this Bioshock patch, featuring – you guessed it! A Big Daddy! Now, aside from the fact that it’s a Big Daddy, the fact that the Big Daddy’s eyes were made using glow in the dark thread makes this patch even more awesome. Not all that great at sewing? Don’t worry! It’s an iron-on patch for all you novices out there! (For the record, I’m still too scared to apply it.)

Last, but certainly not least, is the Mecha Pin. This pin is meant to represent “the moments when our sum was greater than our parts. It features a single hand, split into two. One half is machine, while the other is human. It is made of hand-polished iron, is 2 inches thick, and has a 1.25 diameter.
