  • I feel like where they missed the mark as the official box is they think what we want is Harry Potter merch. We don't. We want pieces that make us feel like they are from the wizarding world. We want to look like we are in Harry Potter not like we are a fan of Harry Potter.

    • I came here to say something similar. The pieces looked like they were coordinated to match each other, which does take thought and care, but it's the aesthetic that's off. There probably are loads of folks that WANT merch that looks in place with their personal style, and for those folks this box would be perfect. (Quality on the items notwithstanding, I'm just speaking on looks.) I think the disconnect is that the expectation is reversed...the official crate is where you'd EXPECT in-world themed merch, not the other way 'round. If this is the direction (asthetic/modern styles) that this team wants to go with, then they should/could do more to set the expectation and positively reinforce their brand decision vs. having the message come off as tone-deaf. I rather liked the design on the hat and the puzzle...but was it magical? No. Am I expecting magical from the official box by default or if not advised otherwise? YES. Does that take away from my appreciation for the designers who are trying out 'fresh' concepts and art? Sadly, it does. I'd rather have these marketed so that they shine BECAUSE they're different. ETA: same with the beanbag game. It's a popular game where I'm from, and I do think Cherry has a point on having crates specific to young witches/wizards vs. display collectors. They could do better to market TO their different demographics instead of having all parties feel disenchanted.

  • Sorry that this wasn't a happy video gang, I wasn't sure whether I would upload this - it was unenjoyable to film if I'm being completely honest. I do hope that Loot Crate take all of our feedback on board, the comment section here is a gold mine for them. Either way, no more Loot Crates for me - i'll be keeping an eye on their future ones (from afar). Who knows, maybe one day they'll get their magical spark back. But for now - it's a goodbye from me.

    • I'm super picky about the magical items I buy (which is why I watch these videos before purchasing anything). For example, the only thing in recent memory I really loved was the Remembrall from Litjoy, and I do plan to buy one of those soon. You're absolutely right on the mark, I wouldn't want anything from this crate. It was just sad and not at all what you'd hope an official box would be like. IME, the officially licensed merchandise often falls short in both aesthetics and creativity, as well as quality. Even the official wands are lacking compared to the intricate works of art you can get from other shops.

  • I feel like the Loot Crate is kinda just representative of the state of the Wizarding World brand in general these days. Zero imagination, zero passion, just unabashed money grabbing. Look at the items at the new HP store in New York, it's just clothes with house names on them. There's no artistry or creativity behind any of it, and that's why we fell in love with the Wizarding World in the first place.

It is a true shame that those who are ,,officially licensed" to create a little bit of Magic for us muggles have no Idea anymore, how to do so. And to sell such 1 $ products for such an incredible amount of money is honestly a tragedy! Totally with you, Cherry! You speak out what we feel in our fan hearts!

  • I absolutely understand what you mean about them not being magical enough. And I agree with what you mean about "They're meant to be exclusive, but I wouldn't buy this anywhere else anyway". It's disappointing that that's the best we can get from the "Official" Licensed Harry Potter crate. Hopefully Loot Crate just hasn't had a chance to work on the improvements you suggested yet? Maybe they already had a few months of boxes planned and manufactured and the next ones will be better? That being said, while it's not to my taste, I can see where the beanbag game is at least fairly clever! You've got the practice dummy that you're meant to hit with beanbag "spells"....Maybe I'm just being overly optimistic...lol

    • Loot Crate started having troubles with this, and EVERY box, a few years ago. The quality reduced, items were missing, and then, boxes just never arrived. For months. They had no answer, they ran and hid. I believe they got a new owner, who just wants to sell items and make money, not provide goods for geeks like they did in the beginning. The subscribers beg and pleaded with Loot Crate for over a year, asking for better items, to even just GET the boxes that were paid for, and the response was never very inspiring. Either no response, or too bad, or please wait, or some other excuse. I still never received items from some of these boxes that I paid for, and finally got it canceled forever by going through my bank and having them not allow any charges from Loot Crate! I don't miss it, there are far better HP boxes out there.

It looks super cheap, like they do not care at all anymore and they did not put any thought into this... anyway thanks for being honest Cherry! The end of the video was actually the only moment of laughter and joy, thanks cameraman Chris haha

I don’t know time difference between Loot Crate asking for your feedback and you getting this, but given the shocking quality I would hope that they couldn’t intercept it. Here’s hoping they will take your feedback on board and reinvigorate the line with some truly magical collectibles in the future.

  • "They are willing to listen" is not what i experienced for the last one and a half years. I ordered the September 2019 box and after two times telling me they will send a replacement after the first got lost in transit and never sending them i am so done with them and have no energy to talk to them anymore. The worst costumer service i ever had for anything, so no surprise they also don't listen to what people want inside the box

    • only reason they reached out is because she is one of the few people that is honest in her opinions and she was blasting them on here. they worry about reputation. because she is not sponsored, they can't control what she says. I wouldn't be surprise if after this, they try to send her some sponsored boxes in hope she would retract her bad review.

  • Cherry I would love to know what your opinion is on the future of Harry Potter subscription boxes - at what point will everything be “over done”? I would love to know your opinion in general about how subscription boxes can keep it fresh and exciting after years and year. I personally think that LitJoy does it right - less frequent and better quality instead of pumping out lower quality items month after month.

  • I'm so thankful for your videos and your reviews because I honestly cannot afford much given my current situation. I truly love Harry Potter and the magical feeling I get from reading/listening to the books. I've been a fan now for around 20 years and while I do have some Harry Potter items that I've purchased myself and love, I've made most of my potions and other decorative things. Suffice to say - if I had saved my money up for one of these boxes, waited with excitement for it to arrive and then got these things in the mail I would probably be disappointed to literal tears. If I do decide to save up for a HP themed subscription box, I'm going with The Wizarding Trunk based on both your reviews and also The Potter Collector's reviews.

We're all allowed to have disappointments that to us feel horrible and should not live fear of judgement from some under bridge misery laden TROLL detracting from the fact. You've had disappointment in your life others would find laughable but you don't share them on a platform that others can then freely judge upon, so until you do BACK OFF AND SHUT UP.

  • Thank you for your honest opinion as always!! A wizarding world loot crate unboxing was the first video that made me discover your channel and the world of harry potter subscription boxes~ Sincerly i was really excited watching those unboxing in 2017, but now, after discovering ''not branded'' subscription boxes, I feel the same things you are feeling during this video. Looking back at the old boxes the items don't feel so magical for me, not anymore, they feel more like ''i'm going to london, i'll bring back some branded hp souvenirs for my friends''. The pins were amazing tho! Original and creative. I know they have some limits since it's a branded box but they have the freedom to create exclusive original and creative items to add in the boxes. Sorry for my english and thanks again for this video.

  • I got that box. I was excited about this box subscription in general because of it being “official” thinking how amazing it would be. And I didn’t want to admit it, but I was also sad and disappointed. I cancelled my subscription once I got what I believe was my “welcome” crate. Watching you and Potter Collector got me excited about getting my own boxes, but I tried to be excited for this box. And I honestly agree with you. There wasn’t a magical feel to it. I know I won’t get my money back for the rest of the subscription, I just hope the rest get better!

  • In my opinion, lots of the boxes that come from smaller companies or even small businesses on things like Etsy provide much more exciting and engaging loot boxes based on the Harry Potter franchise. Most of the items in the ‘official’ boxes seem like quickly thought of concepts and there are so many missed opportunities with how creative you can truly be with the vast majority of Harry Potter loot crates

I’ve seen the unboxing of some of the others and some of them just blow my mind; this one did not. It makes me leery of signing up for those monthly subscriptions, spending my hard earned money on it and not getting my money’s worth. I loved getting my subscription box and finding out what fantastic treasures were inside, that is what excites me. Now I’m bummed.
