We really weren't fans of Mario's blue shell ability in New Super Mario Bros., because it tended to steer us inexorably into a lava-filled grave. But we want to hug this plush Blue Shell Mario. And then maybe toss him into lava.
Play-Asia is selling these adorable NSMB toys, produced by Banpresto, for about $11 each. You have your choice of the aforementioned Mario, a Mega Mushroom, Boo, Luigi (in casino minigame regalia) and Toad. Does anyone else find it odd that Luigi still wears his green hat, even when he's in formal attire?

Those are just too damned cute. It's like a pile of kittens.

ThinkGeek has this new mushroom seat. It makes no sense. Who could sit on this thing? A Hobbit, I suppose.

Blue Shell was like "Expert" mode
playing all the stages possible with that power-up breathed new life into that game

Man, I was all set to order a boo. I even had it in my cart. But now, they are all sold out. And of course they still have plenty in stock of all the others. This sucks :(
