A new approach to a new theme: Nautical Navy

If you’ve browsed through the Ganz eStore recently, then you’ve probably come across the Nautical Navy theme, specifically the Nautical Navy ?? Box.

One thing you’ll notice right away is that Nautical Navy theme is being sold in a completely new and different way – instead of selecting individual pieces to buy, the only way to get a Nautical Navy item is to buy a Nautical Navy ?? Box, which awards one random piece of the theme.

These are the items in the collection:

As you can see from the picture above, the items awarded by the Nautical Navy ?? Box are all tradeable.

I was curious about how these new mystery boxes would work, so I bought three of them. I wound up with two Nautical Navy Rocking Chairs and one Nautical Navy Slide.

Both items are animated and interactive, as you can see in the gifs below:

Here’s a picture to give you an idea of the scale of these two items:

You can see from the picture that the Nautical Navy Slide is quite large in comparison to my pet and the other furniture.

The Nautical Navy theme is designed for building a nursery with an ocean/ship theme. Some of the pieces, though, would work in any beach or ocean inspired room.

What do you think about the new way Ganz is offering the Nautical Navy items? On the one hand, you can end up with duplicates like I did, and it’s not possible to select a specific item to buy.

On the other hand, the mystery boxes are fun, and they’re a great value. Deluxe Members pay 2,250 eStore points (regular members pay 4,000) for an item that would normally cost 5,000 to 6,000 eStore points.

Will you be buying a Nautical Navy ?? Box? Do you hope that Ganz offers more of these mystery box themes in the future?
