The Crate Dragon is a fandom-inspired mystery crate company celebrating the biggest releases in books, games, and pop culture. Each crate is packed with themed goodies—from exclusive merch and collectibles to snacks, candles, and more.
We offer two types:
Release Crates – Tied to major releases (e.g., a new romantasy novel or video game).
Evergreen Crates – Seasonal or occasion-based (birthdays, Christmas, etc.), perfect for gifting.
We release new themed crates regularly, based on fandom calendars. Keep an eye out for preorders a few weeks before each major launch—or sign up for our newsletter to get early access.
Each box includes 5–7 curated items, such as:
- Apparel (T-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.)
- Accessories (keychains, bookmarks, pins)
- Themed snacks & treats
- Homeware (candles, mugs, bookends)
- Collectibles or exclusive artwork
Prices vary slightly by theme and size, but most crates fall between $60–$150 NZD.
International pricing available at checkout.
Yes! We’re based in New Zealand but we ship to most countries. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.

Because our crates are curated to order, we don’t typically accept returns unless an item arrives damaged or there’s a problem with your order. If anything’s wrong, we’ll make it right—just contact us.
