Lucky Box vending machines are considered "legit" in that they dispense prizes (like sports cards, Pokémon cards, jerseys), but they operate in a regulatory grey area and often resemble gambling, with concerns about exposing young people to gambling-like activities, especially as some advertised jerseys lack official team logos, raising questions about value versus cost. While they guarantee a win and feature high-value items, users should be cautious as the value of the mystery item often falls below the purchase price, and some items (like jerseys) might be missing official branding.

- Lucky Box is revolutionizing collectibles with immersive, gamified retail experiences. Our mystery box vending machines feature graded Pokémon, sports cards slabs, autographed jerseys, and rare autographed memorabilia—every pull guarantees a win, with the chance to uncover ultra-rare grails.

Same for the phrase "war fighters." While I understand that our men and women in the military do fight in wars, battles, and other actions, I prefer the the usual terms "soldier" or "Marine" or "airman" or "sailor." All these service members can still be bad-asses without being called warriors. Plus "soldier" implies membership of a state-sanctioned military, with rules, oaths, and obligations to go along with membership.

Perhaps I am too sensitive to this stuff, having been a soldier once, and young.
