Yay for crotcheted power-ups

Posted Dec 30, 2006 at 4:45PM by QJ Staff Listed in: Wii, Nintendo DS Tags: Super Mario

These are just the most adorable things that we have seen today, and how could we not be enamoured when we have here some stuffed and squishy renditions of popular Nintendo icons? And yes, we do have a soft spot for these kinds of things.

In any case, seller AmigurumiAmour was spotted selling these guys - a bob-omb, a power-up mushroom and a 1UP mushroom - over at Etsy for around US$ 15 each, with each mushroom or bob-omb standing around 5 inches tall. Perfect for setting on top of the PC monitor (or beside it if you're using a flat, LCD monitor), or perhaps as a way to introduce your 2-year-old niece to the wonderful world of Nintendo and the Super Mario Bros. franchise.

Hardcore, baby.
