They're baaaaaaack: Gargamel lucky bags are returning to Super7 on Thursday! Like years past, these will be a random assortment of various Gargamel pieces, including unique colorways and maybe even a special piece or two. Of course, you'll have no idea what you get until you open your bag up, so it's a bit like a very expensive blind-boxed figure.
Price-wise, they're US$300 each and available starting at noon Pacific (3 p.m. Eastern, 8 p.m. GMT) from Super7. Anyone tried their luck at a lucky bag before, and if so, how'd it go for you?
I want to see a video of this fancy pants wooden Curiosity Rover in motion so badly I could scream. Isn’t he amazing? Wouldn’t it be even more amazing if he could be your pet Rover, roving around the house and beeping like Wall-E? I suppose then he couldn’t be made out of wood … […]
The post space: the wooden frontier appeared first on Small for Big.
Hailing from his most recent Wii U title, Super Mario 3D World, Mario's latest plush incarnation dons the game's cat suit and brings some of his buddies along for the ride. Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad get in touch with their feline side and the results are freaking adorable. Who knew a mustachioed cat thing could be so cute? I also love that Cat Peach keeps her little gold crown. Mario and Luigi come in two sizes, medium (30 to 35 centimeters tall) and small (24 to 25 centimeters tall), while Peach and Toad are only available in the smaller size. All of these plushes ship in mid-April 2014, with the smaller guys (and gal) costing ¥1,800 and the medium ones priced at ¥2,800.
The bandit Totten (or Nabbit, as he is known in English) makes his stuffed debut as well. I'm actually more impressed with this character than I am with the cat suit plushes (although they are fabulous). There is just so much more detail going on with him, from his embroidered kerchief mask to the emblem on his sack of loot. I just wish he was a little bigger. He is the same size as the "small" version of Cat Mario, standing at 24 centimeters tall. The purple dude can be pre-ordered now for ¥1,800, shipping this April.
