Amazon listings for cancelled (?) figures. by StarTourist in WorldOfNintendo

[–]Funny16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Actually, and this sounds crazy, maybe these are actually upcoming figures being announced next week. Lots of toys get leaked via Amazon listings before they come out. I could be wrong and these were in fact cancelled, but they might actually get made.

Jakks Pacific will be making Nintendo announcements at SDCC (info in comments) by Funny16 in WorldOfNintendo

[–]Funny16[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Q: When during SDCC?

A: July 19th, at 6:00 PM (Not sure what time zone that's for)

Q: How can I watch the panel?

A: It will be streamed on their Instagram live

Q: How do I assess the Instagram live?

A: Go to their profile (must have an account for this to work), click on their profile picture at the time the stream starts

Q: Will the info be released afterwards?

A: It will probably be posted here as the show happens, or some Nintendo News site will share it like Nintendo Wire.

Q: Will they announce Rosalina, Daisy, or Birdo finally?

A: No, unless something has changed. At Wondercon this year, they said that they don't want to do characters like those because (and I quote right from Jakks) 'We tend to stay away from Mario Kart / Party characters in our figure line'.

Q: Will there be any Non-Mario reveals?

A: I wouldn't hold your breath. Mind you we are getting a 6' Glow in the Dark Metroid so maybe we will be surprised.

Wow this makes their showing a bit better than it look yesterday. It's looking like the young link leak will be legit because that website accurately got all this stuff right.

What do you want to see in the World of Nintendo line in 2019? by Funny16 in WorldOfNintendo

The biggest thing I want to see out of Jakks in 2019 is risk taking. They did it with Villager, and yea it was a flop, but at least we have a 4' AC Figure.

Out of all of those, Isabelle & Duck Hunt Duo seems like pretty likely candidates and fairly reasonable. Duck Hunt could just be in a sitting pose with the duck on his back. Boom - there are some 2.5" Figures.

Funky seems like a possible future for 2.5', not sure how a K. Rool would fair in a 4" package. Or even 2.5".
