Good evening everyone! It’s time for the highlight! Last week the Highlight was absent, and that’s because September is really a busy month for me as I celebrate not one, not two, but all three of my kids birthdays! So if you missed me, or didn’t even notice I was gone I apologize! But here I am popping back up like Finn in the Force Awakens trailer. See what I did there? Thursday Night Highlight is brought to you by @Esbjo_Figs (On Instagram!) or as some of you know me as Eddie’s Toy Box (On Youtube!). A weekly column where I showcase some of my favorite photos from my Instagram account and tell you why! So without any further delay on to the pictures!
“Hakuna Matata. Hakuna Ma-beep boop.”
Simba and Timon from the Pop! Disney line and BB-8 from the Pop! Star Wars line. Just a simple recreation from the Lion King and with Disney owning both properties it only made sense a mash up would occur at some point! Everyone loves that little droid so much already why wouldn’t Disney go back and edit some of their classics to include him? If you want to get a closer look at BB-8 you can do so here >
“Just blend in… Just blend in.”
Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma, and various Stormtroopers from the Pop! Star Wars Line. I can’t really explain this one to you. Just know that once you see it… you’ll appreciate it. Just blend in! Check out the First Order in all their Darkside glory! Kylo Ren hopefully will be awesome! Check out Kylo Ren and many more Star Wars Pop Reviews here >
“What. IS. THIS!?”
Holiday Dancing Groot from the Pop! Marvel line, and Jack Skellington from the Pop! Disney line! Well, another Disney mash up, but this time not Star Wars, but Marvel, because well… Disney owns everything in this world it seems. We have our first Holiday photo of the season and it involves Jack checking out Groot and wondering just what this monstrosity could be. So those of you who don’t like Christmas music the day after Halloween… this one might not be for you. Check out Dancing Groot and his variant brothers here >
That’s all the time I have tonight! Make sure you follow me on Instagram @Esbjo_Figs, and subscribe to my Youtube Channel Eddie’s Toy Box for more daily reviews on all the latest and greatest Funko items!
