There's a Star Wars BB-8 Version of Bop it! That Is Both Adorable and Really Cheap Today
Bop it! Twist it!! Pull it!!!
I owned the original Bop It! game as a kid and played it with my friends and family way too much. Having to quickly respond to the commands of some bossy toy was far more fun than it should have been. Now that it's been almost 30 years since the original Bop it! was released, I had foolishly assumed this game had disappeared for good. Only recently have I discovered that it still exists, and now comes in a much more adorable form.
The Bop It! BB-8 Edition is a cute little interactive version of the lovable Star Wars Droid and Amazon has recently dropped a big discount on it. It plays just like the original Bop It! game, but comes with the added bonus of having C-3PO's voice telling you what to do. At just $12 right now, this deal is only available for a limited time as part of Amazon's Spring Sale.
Bop It! Game Star Wars BB-8 Edition at Amazon
With Amazon's discount, this fun little Star Wars toy has dropped to its lowest price on Amazon since 2019 when it briefly dipped to under $10. Overall, $12 is a great price for what is essentially a Star Wars-themed fidget toy. Thanks to its small size and fairly hidden Bop It! branding, it also doubles as a great desk companion when you aren't using it. Although I personally think R2-D2 is the better droid, I can't deny the cuteness aura that BB-8 radiates.
If you happen to be looking for a Bop It! toy more aligned with the original trilogy, there is also a Chewie version that you could consider. Unfortunately, Chewie doesn't appear to take as well to the Bop It! design as BB-8 and Hasbro has created one of the most horrifying versions of the Wookie I've ever seen.
Can you imagine holding Chewie in your hand as he stares blankly beyond the horizon, only to be bopped, twisted, and pulled while Han Solo commands you to do his bidding? If that does appeal to you, then this is the right toy for you. And it's just as cheap as the BB-8 version I featured above.
