The latest WWE Slam Crate is here and things are getting extreme in a few ways with nods to stars of the past and today.
(https://blowoutbuzz.wordpress.com/?s=slam+crate)
While you can see past Crate breaks here, (https://blowoutbuzz.wordpress.com/?s=slam+crate) this newest crate most notably gives us a continued approach to WWE toy collecting with a new WWE Slam Stars figure from “The Attiude Era.”
What was inside this one? Keep reading …

For $32.99, Buzz got five items inside this crate — one less than last time — a mix of collectibles, usable everyday items and other items all with a WWE theme.
The biggest highlight in this one is the third of four Loot Crate craftedSlam Stars figures, an Undertaker toy with a unique style that’s about five inches tall and includes a quarter of a wrestling ring base that will complete itself next month with a final figure of The Rock. These are in the same style as the recently touted Sports Crate of MLB stars. (https://blowoutbuzz.wordpress.com/2017/03/16/loot-crate-enters-sports-world-with-10-mlb-teams-and-superstar-toys/)
The rest of the items in this one? Check them out in the gallery below and then see how Buzz graded this one. (Click for a closer look and a description of the item.)
The Bottom Line: Overall, I’d grade this a C+ since it’s smaller than past boxes and seems a little more one-dimensional beyond the figure, which is great. The rest? Not so much — at least for me. The next one might be my last (holding on for The Rock figure) unless they up the ante with the presence of certain stars or certain more-collectable items. For more info on Slam Crate, click here.
