No problemo
It's for sale if you're interested
I was wondering who won those...I was going to bid on them, but then remembered that I'm trying to scale back on collecting. I figured they were either going to go really high or go for a steal...I'd say they went for the latter.
I didn't even realize that, thanks for pointing it out!
To me they're the most interesting pirates for sure...

Numba Nine: (Beatles reference...get it?!) Sealed Miniature Zelda Figues & Wario Button Cover
($25 each shipped or all four for $85)
These are Miniature Zelda OoT figures that you could buy in those little gumball machines...There are 6 figures in the entire set, though the ones I have are Young Link, Young Zelda and Poe (x2). These are pretty difficult to find, and even harder to find still in the packages. A fun little side note; I'm almost certain this is the only merch for Poe which makes them the most popular of the set. The Wario item next to them is a button promo from Wario Land Shake It on the Wii.
Here's a triple shot of Starfox memoribilia since I won't be around for the weekend...heading to the Renissance festival.
#10: StarFox Car Freshner
This was a promo for Starfox Adventures (GameCube). Aparently while Fox McCloud is not battling alien dinosaurs on some random planet in space he can keep your car smelling nice and fresh...who knew! ($4 Shipped)
#11: StarFox Game Watch
This was from the now defunct Bradlees and showcases Fox in all his miniature glory...You soooo could've played this in your middle school under the desk and the teacher would've been too afraid of what you might be doing to stop you. This thing is MINT and even had the original instructions under the watch. ($55 Shipped)
#12: StarFox Statue
Me and Fox McCloud himself...please do not mention who is the cooler of the two (I wouldn't want his feelings to be hurt). ($600 obo)
#13: Nintendo Super Tour '92 Pin
I don't have too much time tonight, so I thought it was the perfect chance to add this. I have no idea what this is for; I never took the time to research it...I won this in a Christmas contest on Gamesniped.com two years ago...thanks Nicola! I'm assuming it was something for Europe so if anyone would like to chime in with some info, I'd love to hear some!
#14: Nintendo Employee Padfolios
(Not for sale)
Here are three different padfolio's used by Nintendo Employees. The dark brown has the Nintendo logo on the bottom corner, the 'Prime Time' padfolio was given out around the time Metroid Prime was released for the GameCube and 'The Never Ending Story' is my favorite of the bunch...it's kind of hard to tell, but there is an etching of Mario on the front; very classy.
#16: Mario Radio
($44 shipped)
This Mario FM radio (it was also available in hot pink) is pretty nifty and showcases Mario in all of his nerdy awkward glory. I suppose he is drawn to look like he's crooning but he looks pretty darn high to me. Personally, this is my favorite image of Mario that I've seen on any piece of merchandise.
#17: Sega Game Previews VHS
Sometimes game companies would send out VHS tapes to retailers so they could show in-game footage of them on their TV displays. This is one such VHS, featuring the Sega Genesis games Dick Vitale's "Awesome, Baby" College Hoops (Time Warner Interactive)
Awesome Possum Kicks Dr. Machino's Butt (Tengen)
Gauntlet IV (Tengen) and Formula 1. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but it should be fun.
#18: Zelda OoT Action Figures
I used to collect action figures....now I don't. But I still do have a few figures left hanging on a wall; and these Zelda figures are among my favorites. Gannon, Adult Link, Young Zelda with Impa and the Zelda Standalone...all purchased at Toys R Us.
#20: X-Box Kiosk Part
($5 + shipping...it's heavy!)
For one reason or another, the X-box rep decided to unscrew this from the side of the kiosk and throw it out...enter your resident garbage picking r-zone employee! There are a few more graphics under the Oddworld one, but I don't think I've ever pulled them out..it's a mystery! It's a good thing I don't work there anymore or I'd have a ton more silly/dumb/pointless items than I do now.
