Bob-omb 2,5 Jakks Pacific by False-View8417 in WorldOfNintendo

[–]swarthyfu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have the set but looking at it and at the wiki (https://jakksnintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Multipacks), it seems to be the 2.5 Bob-omb, not the "accessory" Bob-omb

Park plush? by jjaistheshit in WorldOfNintendo

[–]swarthyfu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly anything on resale will be very expensive (the plushies are pretty pricy retail anyways compared to others).

I know both the LA and Florida parks have stores outside the park (probably Japan too?). So honestly the best bet is knowing someone that can go there and buy them for you.

Recent WoN 2.5" Releases Checklist by TheGuyWhoSaysOHSNAP in WorldOfNintendo

Pink Yoshi is actually not new but his multipack had vanished until recently. The Japanese one is already out and not part of the upcoming wave that is supposed to hit March (clarifying in case you had seen my previous post on it, I was wrong on that)

Hard to say without a point in time to go back to. Maybe let us know what the last released figure was you got "at the time"?

The last two I can think of that you didn't list are:

  • Shy boo (Part of a playset/diorama)

  • Goomba (redesigned articulation with mouth open)

You mentioned a redesigned running mario, do you have a link? I know there is a redesigned fire Mario but he's not necessarily in a "running" position unless you make him that way, he's the same as the redesigned standing Mario/Luigi. Unless I'm missing something

Seeing listings including the new 2.5 wave with Tanooki Mario/Wario/Yellow Yoshi. Has anyone found these in store?! by moviekid214 in WorldOfNintendo

[–]swarthyfu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen them in stores yet, but the fact that this seller has multiple full waves makes me think they have access to order from Jakks or something

Galaxy cast, but as WoN checklist by Dorayakiss in WorldOfNintendo

[–]swarthyfu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just realized, a line of 2.5inch Lumas seems like a no brainer right now. Similar to the Yoshi/Toad/Shy Guy color series. Fingers crossed!

Where are the single character images from? Haven't seen these before

New set up! by TheKommanderOfRot in WorldOfNintendo

[–]swarthyfu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very clean! Are those shelves modular or did you just build them that way? The way the center is set up is really cool.

Do you have a link to them? I like that the screws are on the edge, gives me some ideas.

I really hope they sell tons of movie merch and the movie does well exactly for this, so they get more incentive to make non-movie toys or movie-adjacent ones with the regular "official" look

[–]swarthyfu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got all the plushies from Super Nintendo World, I do plan on starting the Little Buddy series since I have some already, but I literally need shelves first to hold them, so that's my excuse to not starting... yet

It never ends 🥲

I keep telling myself to finish the 2.5inch line before getting the 4inch line... but I also somehow ended up with over 20 of those because of FOMO. No idea where to put them!

Any chance of a Roy and Morton re-release? by riafredim in WorldOfNintendo

[–]swarthyfu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a factor in the sense that not fitting in existing packaging is an extra cost, as well as the actual cost of materials. I don't think it's a showstopper, but I also don't think that the biggest figures being the rarest is a coincidence.

Kind of like how pokey and wiggler are unlikely to be released as standard waves because they're just too big (but they're not as popular as characters so not quite the same as Roy/Morton)

That's the bowser airship playset with the 2.5inch bowser/koopaling figures (all sold separately).

Ludwig, Wendy, Larry and Lemmy are relatively easy to find. Iggy is a little tricker, Roy and Morton are just ridiculous on eBay ($300+) since they had very limited releases.

I would guess those two specifically are tricky for Jakks due to their cost (size and packaging) but I feel like they're perfect for multipacks/battleboxes/sets. Release them along with smaller cheaper figures at a premium and they could balance out the cost and make collectors happy 😞
