April's Nerd Block Classic is guest curated by Al, and will include an exclusive Simpsons item. More info on their Facebook page.

If anyone is ordering this and it's your first Nerd Block purchase, you can use promo code CONTINUE at checkout to save 25% ($5) if you're doing the 1-month option. That'll basically cut the (US) shipping cost in half. My total cost, with the coupon, was $24.94. Hopefully there's some good stuff in there.

So, how's this work? Is this a new toy or will it just be the Simpsons figure? The website is very secretive about what you are getting, which is suspicious to me. I'm really only interested in the Weird Al item, the rest I will donate to charity. If it's an item I can't get anywhere else, I don't mind paying for it, but I'm a little wary of shelling out $24.94 for a Simpsons figure I already have. <_<

It's a blind box so you don't know what you are getting until it arrives. The contents usually do leak but not until after the window to order closes. Its probably not the Al figure in the box. Most of these are basically overstock that companies want to get rid of. Als figure sold well, so it will be something that sold poorly. And most of the items won't be related to Al, if any are. They just give the celebs a list of stuff to pick from and it goes in. Its an easy pass for me

Al mentioned it on Facebook last week, saying "get exclusive Weird Al merch and more"

Nerdblocks definition of exclusive is rather loose. Several of their exclusives have been autographed pictures. While cool for some people, it's not something I consider a worthwhile exclusive.

Well I don't have any Weird Al merch whatsoever, apart from the CDs, so I'm kinda interested.
Love and peace.

Finally decided to actually order it. :o

Thanks to Scott's code I ended up paying $27,94 which isn't too bad for intercontinental shipping.
Love and peace.

I know I started off anti Need Block, but there is a variant sinpsons figure with no mustache or glasses and a red shirt. 3 days left
