Star Wars Funko Pops and Smuggler’s Bounty

Smuggler's Bounty Funko Pop Box

I’m subscribed to the Funko bi-monthly Star Wars themed box called Smuggler’s Bounty. Each month the box arrives with a couple of Funko Star Wars figures, a t-shirt, pin and patch. There are no special cover comic books, though. I thought that would be something included, too. I like how the Marvel Collector Corps has those. I’ve noticed that some of the Smuggler’s Bounty boxes have different t-shirts and different figures. That annoys me a little. It is already enough to be paying for those boxes to get some exclusive content but to randomly get 2 of 3 exclusive figures instead of there just being two exclusive options in each box is irritating. The same goes for the t-shirts. I’ve already seen three different designs.

The other day Target had a great deal on Action figures. Buy 2 and get 1 free. So I picked up a few of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens figures on that deal. There are a few more that I’m looking for and they are pretty cool.

App Alert: The BeatNiks, A Musical Monster Pet Game

The new app BeatNiks is a fun little musical adventure where you create a little monster and then care for it. You keep it cleaned, entertained and fed. As the monster gets more experience it will begin to evolve. In addition to playing with the BeatNik you can also listen to music with it and then dress it up. As far as music that you can listen to the game can pull in the various music sources that you have on hand and also use sources like Spotify and Pandora.

Over the Thanksgiving holiday Eva discovered the game on my phone and she began playing with a monster and she had a great time playing. Take a look at the trailer below and the press release below that to learn more about this cute musical game.
