A Yoshi prototype has now turned up. But it's so small I can't imagine how Ertl were going to issue it. Which may be another reason it was cancelled. It being the size of an accessory does make me believe it could have been intended for a Princess Daisy action figure. Whatever Ertl's plans were for other figures have been lost to time.
important figures to have for the collection if a Mario fan. You could use one of the Goombas for Koopa's final form, and just make a new coat for the other Goomba, maybe customize the Koopa stand in, add hair, horns and shell. give the look of how he could have looked
I would have loved a de-evolved official Koopa since I always played with this as the game characters more than the movie versions. Hopefully you saw the unreleased Yoshi figure: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XNUSTog5hsc.html
I thought John Leguizamo made Luigi a damn sight more interesting as a little kid myself. Him being younger and much more distinctive in look was a smart idea. I even still dig the Bill S Preston esquire style backwards hat lol
The toys still look good to this day. Brings me such nostalgia. I have them stashed up in storage with my ninja Turtle and Power toys. 🥰🥰🥰 I even have my old He-man and Thundercats toys too! 😁😁
I'm all about digging out the old toys here. I have so many line-up to showcase. Always wished I had Thundercats stuff. I think it's pretty pricey to collect these days.
Bob Hoskins was in Unleashed(2005). He used Jet Li as a human attack dog. Li's character becomes friends with a blind piano player played by Morgan Freeman.
My late Dad bought me these figures as a little kid. I must have been one of about three people on the planet actually loving collecting them because everyone else seemed to be getting Jurassic Park which, to be honest, I didn't think was all that great as a toyline. These were so unique in their time and I thought Ertl did a much better job capturing the actors likeness' over Kenner handling Spielberg's cast. I actually have the police car. Still with it's original box. It shocks me just how rare it really seems to be, barely appearing on eBay. It has a breaking apart body feature that jettisons off the two jail doors and an actual fungus cord stored inside the back of the car with suction cups for hanging off a cliff in the Koopahari Desert lol If you are lucky enough to track one down I doubt you will be disappointed. There are also two giant, talking Mario and Luigi figures that have really great detail for 1993 on the famous stomper boots.
I never ended up with any Jurrasic Park stuff either. I hope I can find a decent priced police car but I doubt it. Don't miss the Yoshi video from the same movie: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XNUSTog5hsc.htmlsi=j13R2UUA3ZkVJcT5
It's an awesome sci-fi movie, and bonus that it is Super Mario based! Hopefully you saw Yoshi also: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XNUSTog5hsc.html
And now the recent Mario movie toys not only these out of the water but also look awesome and I really want one the bros to pair with the animated ones
That would be pretty funny to see. Lots of cool accessories possible. Mushroom, Bob-ombs, ect. But I guess people hate on it a lot so I doubt they would want to put in the money for it.
7:16 Oh God that was criminal… I don’t collect action figures yet I know you’re supposed to open that by running the tip of a cutter alongside the edge of the clear plastic.
@@MBXfilms that true like water world Helen figure and Demolition Man a Sandra bullock figure they didn't make a figure out of them but they made a little megan Fox figure for the transformers movie that come with a bike
@@MBXfilms it sure does and Iove old collection toys and from movie and show and i feel like toys industry should make more figures with more male and female characters from their movie or show and not just one main figure
Bought a Mario and Luigi a couple years ago, safely displayed on my shelf so little to no wear and tear, and I'll be getting a Koopa delivered to me within the next week or so.
They are some fun history of Mario merch, don't miss my Yoshi video about the movie version: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XNUSTog5hsc.html
I think it was just cheaper and easier for the movie if he was just human, and it fits their story of people evolving from reptiles there. His hair is suppose to look kinda Bowser like. And he is decended from T-Rex, which is Bowser like also minus the shell...
The filmmakers concept for the movie (which they talk about in a great documentary found on the Blu Ray) was this strange, live action reality actually inspires the graphic design of the games later on. Which is why Iggy and Spike turn up at what seems to be the Nintendo offices in the hilarious post credit scene. It's a rather clever idea of how to interpret the film and I wish they had put it across a little more strongly.
@@Officialtheslimer thanks for the information I’m planning on making a custom Daisy in her paleontologist outfit from a Kenner Ellie Sattler figure and I just wanted to know before I did that
Hey ERLT Toy 🧸 Company should have a female action figure name Princess daisy figure (played by Samantha Mathis) for The Super Mario brothers movie action figures
She really should have got one. In her dig site gear or dress, either way would have been a great addition, but toy companies were scared to include "GIRLS" in their boy toy lines for fear that no one would buy them. So many great characters left out of movie and cartoon toy lines.
