I would guess people should start posting what they got today. Mine is scheduled for Saturday and since I am in Los Angeles. I usually get mine several days later than the East Coast people.

Well, I got the tools, ub cool, the scrapper, a box cutter, binoculars, fm radio the size of an mp3, and a yellow light. I oppened it. I have a flashlight that the battery compartment comes out, you put the batteries in it and re-insert the whole thing, then it works. Maybe, that is what happened with this thing. It is pretty cool looking though. My 6 year old son thinks it's great and will probably snag it as a night light. I thought it was a pretty decent box. Thanks TF

got mine, with the tools (which I think are awesome for what I will use them for around the house), I got:
UBcool, I love it
FM radio scanner, I tried it, it actually works here in the boonies-lol
long handled scraper-I'm sure I will use it for something
flashing emergency light
mini binoculars--will come in handy for checking out the deer in the field out back
Am most impressed with the fm radio, it picks up a lot of stations around here, we can only get 1 channel on tv without cable or satellite, but it's only good for maggot races.
Overall, I have to say this was a very good AMB. Keep up the good work!
Oops, forgot about the boxcutter, the only thing I didn't like, not retractable, so is always "on", didn't like that, but can use the blades for my retractibles, so not a total loss. But am still happy with the box as a whole unit. It is definitely probable that I might spring for another AMB, maybe even might make the jump to an MB in the future

I guess I got the "zonk" of the MBs this time. I do like the almost mystery tools. Although I now wonder why some were concerned that they would come in the case. If you're going to carry a case around, that kinda defeats the purpose of the sockets/bits being stored in the handles. And the mystery items: Long handle scraper - useful Amber Flare Alert - useful for the car UB Cool - thought it would be useful, as I first thought it was a personal fan. When I found out the metal disc cools down or warms up and you're supposed to press it against you, it didn't seem so useful.  Two Samsonite zippered bags - a toiletries bag and another that measures 8"x10"x2". Not sure what to use that one for. A book? A couple changes of underwear and socks? A non-retractable utility blade. Well, at least I have a screwdriver handy to open the handle....and find there's no blade inside. So, a utility blade handle, then.

The Fedex guy brought me:  Spiffy tool set! The screwdriver will be very useful for those housecall tech support visits that my friends seem to need on a semi-regular basis (and which provide me with much needed/wanted home-cooked meals ). Nice to not have to worry about misplacing bits, which my ADD mind is so adept at doing  All in all, it's a nice replacement for the 'we owe you one' hinged screwdriver, which unhinges in a heartbeat (no smart aleck remarks  ) UB COOL! I, too, thought this was a fan, but when I found out the little disk gets very cool very fast, I came to appreciate it! Nice for these TX summers and cooling pressure points. I'm thinking the warming mechanism might be nice for those times when I have to travel to the snowy lands. I need to watch the trade thread, as I wouldn't mind picking up another couple of these, one to warm each hand, one to stick in each shoe for a preheat, etc  If you don't know what to do with yours, and you know a woman of a certain age who experiences 'personal summers'... this could be great gift for when they need a quick cooldown! Amber flasher dingus I was tempted by these when they went up, but didn't know what I'd do with 5 (of course, in the meantime, I've found uses for 5, so I am regretting not having flung) Pre-wrapped goodies (though the wrapping disappeared rather quickly, I know you're all shocked!): Sweet tiny little vivitar binocs - got a pair of these in the spring cleaning box, so my bf may get this pair, if I can bring myself to part with 'em! Little nature sounds player - which was how they snuck the inevitable headphones into my box  The BF, who never met a tool he wasn't willing to give a home to, gets: Long reach scraper Utility blade handle The ratcheting wrenches, most likely, as I've never had a need for one Curiosity killed the cat....
Satisfaction brought it back!
