I'm not really one for celebrity anything, having little interest in people just because they're famous. I was torn on signing up for the Wil Wheaton Quarterly Box, especially given that it's $100. However, he's only a couple years older than my husband and they basically grew up liking all the same things. Of course, Wil Wheaton got famous and my husband became a high school teacher, so there's that.
The point is that I was wary about this subscription simply because I don't really care what Wil Wheaton does or does not like. I respect that he's doing a lot, especially for tabletop gaming, but at the same time, he doesn't know me and I don't know him, so spending $100 just because he likes something is pretty dumb. When he announced, though, that each box would follow the decades of his life, starting with the 1970's, I figured this would be a great box. I like the cultural and historical element of that, so it felt like it would be a good present for my husband.
