Look what I got in the mail today...!

[KingofGames]

I made a trade for this the other day and it just arrived today. I always wanted to own one of these ever since I saw it in an issue of GI and now I finally do!

That's pretty cool. I didn't realize he was stand on a Platinum GameCube until I enlarged the picture. How big is it (looks around 3-5 inches tall?).

 

[mcgavin27]

that's cool

 

[KingofGames]

It's about 6-7" tall. It's pretty good quality, although the paint job on the Gamecube section isn't great.

 

[BigHow]

That's pretty cool! Is it a Bobblehead or just a statue?

 

[KingofGames]

It's a bobble head. I believe they were only given out to Nintendo Reps, although that might be incorrect.

 

[greydemise]

oooo wow!! awesome

 

[Rig]

I thought you could get them at a store when preordering? IIRC, it was a specific store...

 

[Cyrian]

Target, I think. Or that may've been a Mario one...

 

[Weedy649]

lol hes standing on top of a cube, thats sweet

 

[KingofGames]

I just googled it, and apparently this was a pre-order bonus at EB games. That's certainly news to me, though.

i got something like that, it DK standing on a gameboy advance, im pretty sure i got it at target

 

[KingofGames]

Although now that I'm looking on some other forums, it seems as if these were indeed only given to Nintendo reps to hand-out to other stores. Not sure how many were made or if they were indeed a pre-order bonus, either way it still owns!

 

[schultzed]

I have Mario and Star Fox bobbleheads that Target gave out as promos.

OMG - a Donkey Kong bobblehead?! How did I miss out on this one?

 

[Lexicon]

I have one of those as well, got it from my wife when she was a Assistant manager at Gamestop. From what I understand each store received 1.

 

[Mookyjooky]

They were given to all the store managers of EB and Gamestop.

 

[trunks982]

ppl got that viewtiful joe bobblehead too. i think theres 2 different ones. Joe and Viewtiful Joe. i want the VJ but they say they got Joe only. u get it for preordering VJ at gamestop.

 

[GizmoGC]

I have two Mega Man Battle network ones if anyone is interested PM me.

 

[Kaijufan]

Thats a really cool bobblehead. I wouldn't mind owning one of those.
