Special: Top 10 Boxing Day Songs

So yeah, Boxing Day fell on Wednesday this year! So obviously I needed to count down the top 10 Boxing Day songs (spoiler alert: there isn't many). For our American friends that don't know what Boxing Day is. It's December 26th, it's a major shopping holiday in most countries where you blow through all the Christmas money/gift cards you were given and stores have a bunch of sales (think of it like Black Friday without the death toll). Anyways on to the list!

Special: Top 10 2018 Christmas Themed Funko POP's

Hey everybody a few years ago I counted down the top 10 Christmas Themed Funko POP's (which you can find HERE). This year Funko has released so many Christmas Funko POP's I figured it deserved a list of it's own so here it goes based solely on my opinion.

10. Betty Boop & Pudgey

Kicking off the list is one of a few 12 Days of Christmas items from the Funko Shop. This one is actually still available if you're liking it. I almost didn't include it on this list, only because I was concerned it wasn't "Christmassy" enough since a lot of the items part of this promotion weren't but unlike Batman, Betty actually appears to be wearing elf attire instead of just being red.

9. Mr. Hankey

Yeah yeah I know. It's a piece of poo with a Santa hat, a mouth and eyes. But GD Mr. Hankey is a Christmas legend at this point and he deserves a place on this list.

8. Merry Marauder

This angry gingerbread man from a pretty popular game, as I understand it, called Fortnite is yet another common that you can grab and last time I checked gingerbread is very Christmassy.

7. Spongebob Squarepants

This is a better design than the original Spongebob POP however it's not perfect... I just think he's likely a character that just will never look amazing in POP form. However his Santa hat AND present is enough to get him on this list.

6. C-3PO

This is basically the normal mold wearing a Santa suit except he's actually holding the beard! Nice touch Funko and well played.

5. Buddy The Elf with Raccoon

Another 12 Days of Christmas special, this one is actually still on the Funko Shop so you can still grab it! I'm an Elf fan so this is a must have for me, will hopefully grab it later on when I have some money to spend on it since it's the iconic moment when Buddy asks if the raccoon needs a hug just for it to lunge angrily at his throat.

4. Spider-Man

Ugly Christmas sweaters are all the rage... Even Spidey is jumping on the trend. As you've seen and will continue to see I don't mind the laziness of slapping a sweater on a different mold as long as it's cool and the detail on this sweater definitely fits that description.

3. Christmas Wishes Bear

Top 3 time! I realize this is mostly a repaint but the added stocking adds a lot nevermind the hat and scarf. This is totally deserving of a top 3 spot.

2. Chewbacca

I know this seems pretty lazy for number two but c'mon Chewbacca is so angry that he's tied up in lights... He's even pulling them away. A lot more work went into this sculpt than a quick glance and I for once love it.

1. Patrick Star

This wins out for just being such a better sculpt than the original Patrick and also adding the winter flare of the scarf and candy cane.
