You may recognize the style and look of these characters – Mini Maleficent is also a Funko Pop! model. This, of course, means I absolutely love Funko Pop! figures.

Meaning, I can’t wait to get my hands on these Frozen ones, especially Elsa!

According to the popvinyl.net, the Frozen figures won’t be released until July.

(Birthday present, Mom and Dad?)

Recognize the background?

Star Wars fanatics know it as the board for Dejarik, which is the game played aboard the Falcon in the earlier films.

Abrams has a good sense of ironic humor.

What are your thoughts on the three upcoming Star Wars movies?

If a Mom Sang 'Let it Go'...

I hereby dedicate this to my own mother, as she loves this stuff…..

From popcrush.com:

[O]ne woman from the Granger Community Church in Granger, Indiana decided to give Queen Elsa the voice of a mother — one who is at the end of her rope with her young children. Dressed in pajama pants and a bathrobe as she performs on a stage with props like a couch, toys, and a laundry basket, she hilariously laments the difficulties — but ultimately, the joys — of being a mother.

Maleficent: A Review

TDM and I saw the “midnight” (more like 9:15 p.m.) showing of Maleficent, last Thursday.



Don't let my smile fool you....

Maleficent Nail Design by TDM!

When we saw Maleficent on Thursday, TDM wanted to do my nails for me.  (She also planned to do my eye makeup, but thank heavens we ran out of time.)

Below is a video of her/our Maleficent character nail design.  Of course, we based them off the original Maleficent, not Angelina Jolie’s version!

The Disney Freak’s Blog original video, from YouTube.

Results!
