It’sa Me, Mario! Get Your Gold Coins Ready for Super Mario from S.H. Figuarts

S.H.Figuarts Super Mario teaser

Bandai posted this Super Mario teaser on its S.H. Figuarts Facebook page. Perhaps their claim of the world’s first action figure of Super Mario is a bit dubious – the license has been out there and tons of product have been sold – but it’s certainly the first super-articulated figure of Mario. That means all the jumping, wall-bounding, brick-smashing, mushroom-eating, and Goomba-crushing action is coming your way.

But be ready to shell out some gold coins for this version of Mario. Other Figuarts figures sell for $30 and up, with a pretty tight after-market driving prices higher. Best bet is to hop on a pre-order when they go up. We’ll be looking.
