Club Nintendo Rewards: Kirby Patches
« on: February 14, 2011, 10:57:59 PM »

Not much to say here, but they're pretty cute little patches.

It took awhile, but I finally snapped up another Club Nintendo reward last week. Purely for the adorability (is that a word? It is now) of them, I decided to spend some of my hard-earned Coins on the Kirby Patches. There are two sets to choose from: Kirby and Prince Fluff, or two versions of Kirby in his transformed forms. I chose the former, again, because they're just so damn cute. The order took over a month to get here because they got lost in the mail, but after a call with a very nice Nintendo of America rep, I was sent a new batch that included a bonus patch that's not available on Club Nintendo, I assume as an apology.

Three Kirby patches for the price of two!

See? I got a bonus patch: Kirby in umbrella form! All three patches are about the same size (very small), but they're all cute and very true to the game. You don't actually have to sew them onto anything; they have sticky backs with paper you peel off, so they're more like stickers. I'll be honest, I'm not going to stick them to anything, but they make nice additions to my growing Club Nintendo collection. At 350 coins, you could certainly do worse.

This would be my PSN Trophy Card, but I guess I can't post HTML in my Signature. I'm the pixel spaceship, and I have nine Gold trophies.

Actually, the extra one was because the original batch had Kirby's eyes sewn in upside-down.
