He might have become (temporarily) the king of England and a court judge, but for most fans of the franchise, Bob is the childlike, immature, and impressionable Minion who is usually playing with his teddy bear, Tim. So him appearing out of nowhere and stealing your money, as he does in the Minions Coin Bank, is completely in character. And if you're a fan of the Despicable Me series (or just the Minions), you not only won't mind him doing it but will absolutely love it!
The Minions Coin Bank appears to be an innocent 12.6 x 10.8 x 10.6 cm (5 x 4.3 x 4.2") box with an illustration on the front featuring Kevin, Stuart, and Bob together with lots of bananas. As with all things Minion, bananas play an important role here because the banana-shaped opening is actually where you put your coin. It's made for Japanese coins but should work with pretty much anything that is up to the same size as a 500-yen coin (with a diameter of 26.5 mm / 1"). After the put your coin there, the lid opens and Bob's hand comes out to grab your coin while saying lines from the films!
