Title: Nintendo figurines (not Amiibo)
Post by: tendoboy1984 on December 23, 2014, 10:50:59 PM
I want to start a collection of posable Nintendo figurines. I've seen figurines from Jakks Pacific ("World of Nintendo" line), SH Figuarts (Mario), and Figma (Link, Samus). Which brand would you recommend?

It really depends on what you can afford. I really like the Jakks World of Nintendo Bowser and Wario I got. The Link one is a bit smaller than I'd like, but it's functional. I don't have experience with Mario or Yoshi. There's also the mini-level playsets that I find myself liking. I'm 28, but I shop like a 9 year-old. haha
Figma's great if you want great detail and don't mind a high price. Those Nendoroid figures are also pretty cool as well. They cost a fair amount too.

I found some Figma figures of Link and Samus on Amazon for $40 each (Prime shipping included), but they're a bit too expensive for my budget. I ordered the SH Figuarts Mario figure for $19 directly from Amazon (Prime shipping included). I may check Target later to find some of the Jakks Pacific figures. That Donkey Kong looks hideous though, his head is way too big.

What does this have to do with Nintendo Console Discussion?

Yeah, I have a smaller DK that was from the toy line before Jakks picked up the Nintendo line. I will say that the Bowser figure is very nice. I found mine at Toys 'R Us.
