Game mascot Plushies ... collecting anyone?

[scaleworm]

I come across these plushies every once in a while... small ones and big ones, nice ones (soft and cuddly) and styrofoam filled icky ones.

Do you all collect these as well as games consoles signs glasses and other swag from the industry?.... and where / how do you all store them?

My favorite two are

1. Giant Bowser (Our "Room of Doom" mascot) and

2. Ancient Mario... I'll have to dig Mario out to show you all... he is from ~ 1984 (old school).

I have never come across another Bowser like this though. any one else have one?
( I have a leatherman opened to 8 inches in front of him for scale).

He is almost two feet tall and made By Nintendo... which i live about ten miles south of (Redmond WA).

Let's see those cute scary collectible game history based Plushies folks... show me (and more importantly my wife) that I am not the only wacko that collects them!

I can't say collect but I have this Yoshi and maybe the same exact bowser...not 2 feet and talks but sadly the yoshi one doesn't really talk anymore

I too have a yoshi... He is part of a collection (yoshi,mario,lugi,wario,bowser,etc) (Regular size).. I am thinking about collecting the rest of them.. I remember when I found him in Kmart years ago in a bin, I was like OMG! I have to have you (yoshi)
Till this day he sits on top of my TV.

I have a few but of course the one that everyone asks about is the giant Sonic...





Flea market find for a couple bucks, might of actually been a dollar - I'd need to dig up the finds thread. Anyway, he sits at my dining room table these days.

[Hitman Tyler]

damn! thats a BIG Sonic

it looks like if he stands next to you, he goes up to you waist...

Also J/W what does sonic like to eat...

[scaleworm]

My giant sonic resides in my office, often on a couch.

I have smaller versions of him and as well Knuckles and Tails there.

Sad ...when one has to use office space for storage when room at home has become minimal...

Great conversation starters though....

I got a whackload of Nintendo plushes from the store in NWC's Belluevue office a few months ago. I love stuffies

And using office space for storage: My frogger cocktail is at the end of my desk

[scaleworm]

I thought... Once ... of having an arcade machine in my office as well but... well... didn't do it.

Professors aren't supposed to have stuff like that in their offices....

hey i have that sonic too! he sits on top of my tv. im not really into collecting plushies but if i spot a gaming one ill usualy pick it up. i have a smaller old school sonic as well as a little knuckles and super mushroom. and my girlfriend actually made me a triforce plushy for my last birthday

[SpaceHarrier]

I guess I have the "medium Sonic" from that same line. I also have a small plushie Sonic in my car. My ridin' buddy. When I take a corner too fast he rolls from side to side in the backseat.

I'd kill Nuns on Summer Solstice or All Hallows Eve for a plush Q*Bert. I'd also consider it for Knickerbocker Ms.Pacs.

If I see NES ones, yah. I have some Mario ones. Hard to find though... everything seems to be SNES or newer.
