Yes the contents are sought after, if not only for the fact that they aren't available at retail, but the value of the Hikari is way lower than that of the Dorbz or POP. Comparing the contents by value and popularity, at least the major items, the Hikari will always be last. At least that's the case with this box.
I'd give this box a negative review for value. It doesn't seem like content worthy of a super box, in fact I'd go so far as to say this is an overpriced regular box. I'm very confident I'm not the only one happy I didn't order this, in fact I've read plenty of comments proving that, and very few praising it.

There are ones on there right now listed for only $45 that can't even get a bid. And I'm sure that price will get driven down even more once people receive their box and put them up for sale. The things selling the best on eBay are the two Dorbz and Pop. So it's not the entire box people love. It's a piece or two inside. The people paying more than double are most likely people outside where the box was available to ship.
People mainly want this box for the Pop and or Dorbz, not the Hikari. Which is the same reason most people want any sub box from Funko. A non Pop item really shouldn't be the focus of any box imo.
These are collectibles so yeah they'll be sought after. Doesn't mean the box is a great deal. Just means a couple things were included that people like. For instance I love the Pop and ant-man dorb, very happy with those. But everything else I don't care for. And I certainly don't feel like I got my money's worth as I do with every other box I've received. It seems the Pop and or dorbz are what most are happy with. And that's stuff we could easily get in a regular $25 box. Which is why I think a lot feel somewhat let down and unhappy with the box.
Go onto YouTube, Facebook, IG, other forums, or even just read through here. There are very few people happy with this box.
Very good points. The Hikari is a complete let down and sI question their reasoning for including it given it's popularity if there even was any reason or logic. Clearly another POP or extra Dorbz would have been a lot more popular among the fanbase for these boxes
Exactly, it's very hard to justify the value of the contents, especially when the box is devoid of anything that makes this a 'Super' box, it feels more like an overpriced Regular box.
Agreed, the response is very negative towards this. I think the disappointment is justified
