Todays Collectors Spotlight we're sharing the Wonderful collection of Max Oliveira and his massive Animal Crossing collection!
CS: What got you into collecting?
Max: What got me into collecting stems from my video game collecting. I've been collecting games for a few years, so I just sort of fell into Animal Crossing collecting. I collect Animal Crossing stuff because I played the game religiously as a child. Everything about the first game makes me so happy. Totally nostalgic.

I collect Animal Crossing stuff because I played the game religiously as a child. Everything about the first game makes me so happy. Totally nostalgic.
CS: What was the first item in your collection?
Max: First item would be the game, I guess. I don't really think that counts though. The first item I bought for my collection were my Copper and Booker plushies. I remember seeing them in some Nintendo video and thinkin' "woah, man! there's animal crossing merchandise?" then i bought em' on ebay.

CS: Where did you get all your AC memorabilia? What would you say your collection is worth?
Max: I have gotten most of my AC memorabilia from Ebay, though some of the more difficult to obtain things were bought from private sellers. Things such as my wild world standee, complete miliefieu card set, and near complete japanese e-reader set. It's sort of difficult to place a value on these things. Animal Crossing collecting is as niche as it gets, I would guess. But if someone was interested in this stuff, it easily adds up to over $1k.

CS: Is there anything else you'd like to say in closing?
Max: In closing, I would like to say that Animal Crossing is hella sick and you should play it if you haven't already. It's the chillest, most rad game you will ever play. If you're looking to relax and just have a good time, totally check it out. Also, we need more Animal Crossing collectors!

US Amiibo Retro 3 Pack Review! 9-29-15
Nintendo has been stepping up their Amiibo stocking game in a huge way lately with the release of Wave 5 and many of the figures being much easier to come by than prior waves! This holds very true for the Retro 3 pack of Mr. Game & Watch, Duck Hunt, and R.O.B which can be found at Game Stops right now!
Mr. Game & Watch is a really pleasant surprise in this set by coming with 4 interchangeable poses to go onto his base! What a cool feature to make up for how skinny he is! The gray edging on him is raised which looks and feels great on the figures. There hasn't been a to scale Game & Watch figure so these are a must have!
Duck Hunt is the most colorful of the bunch sporting his default duck buddy. It's really cool to have a figure of this duo and have them in Smash. Bros.! The duck comes on a large clear base but we can't help but notice the extra yellow support keeping on the legs on securely. We wish this was clear but only a minor complaint since most won't be looking at it from the back anyway.
R.O.B is amazing for such a small figure with so much detail! From his blue translucent plastic used for the eyes and head to the tiny text on him, he really stands out! He's so wide that you can barely tell hes even on an Amiibo stand! R.O.B belongs in any Nintendo retro gaming collection!
Verdict!
Paint:
The paint on all of the figures we purchased look very good with only tiny minor smudges that are hardly noticeable unless you look at them up close. There are reports of this set having some obviously bad mistakes such as Duck Hunt's whisker marks being missing to his nose being painted poorly. Overall, they all look fantastic and highly recommended!
Paint 4/5
Collectability :
All 3 of these figures have little no merch at all ever made, making them all must owns for any Nintendo, Amiibo or Retro gaming collector. They're gorgeous and display very well together!
Collectability 5/5
Price:
The 3 pack actually costs a little cheaper than if they were all to have been released individually in the USA due to saving money on packaging! Nintendo passes along the savings and gives consumers some truly spectacular history to display proudly!
Price 5/5
If you would like your own Retro 3 pack, you can purchase them in store exclusively at Game Stop on on their website at Gamestop.com

San-ei Green and Orange Splatoon Squid Pillows review! 9-26-15
San-ei has released the first wave of their new Splatoon Pillows starting with green and orange here! These plush are super soft and look absolutely incredible when compared to their source material!
The spots on the front are painted on instead of embroidered but look exactly how they should so we see this as a good design choice!
The spots on the front are painted on instead of embroidered but look exactly how they should so we see this as a good design choice!
The back of each pillow has the game logo embroidered which is a cool feature for a large plush of this size since many have blank backs.
Each plush is about 5" thick for maximum plushiness! They look awesome on a bed, couch or videogame room!
Verdict!
Each plush is very prestine with no loose threads or uneven lines making for a fantastic Splatoon plush! Fantastic quality control went into these!
Stitching 5/5
These plush are incredibly soft, plushy, and huggable and super comfy to even sleep on! We're super thrilled that these aren't just a lazy cash in on the series!
Plushiness 5/5
These plush run online anywhere between about $20- $30 US which is fantastic if you can find them on the low end and still totally worth it at about $30 a piece due to their sheer size and quality.
Price 5/5
If you would like to purchase your own, they can be found at Amiami.com in 6 colors total! These sell out quick and have already been reissued!

Takara Tomy A.R.T.S MOTHER/Earthbound Beginnings keychain Set Review! 9-22-15
Takara Tomy A.R.T.S has released a new Gachapon keychain set hot off the heels of their last 2 MOTHER series keychain sets. This time we have a fantastic assortment of MOTHER/Earthbound Beginnings characters!
Each capsule will net you one of the above keychains! The paint is pretty good on most of these with only minor smudges on a couple of them. They come with durable rings and straps so they don't break easily if snagged on anything which is a good feature to have!
There only exists one other set released years ago by Banpresto where you can own each of these characters in figure form so if you can grab this keychain set, you will save a ton of money! These are an excellent way to celebrate your love of MOTHER or if you're a fan of the new Earthbound Beginnings on the Wii U!
Verdict!
Paint:
Each of these are spot on with all the correct colors and the shiny paint used on the Starman keychain. They look absolutely perfect! My set had a minor paint flaw which is bound to happen on figures this small.
Paint 4/5
Collectability :
This set is currently available from USA and Japan import sites making them easy to come by at the moment and with so little merch of these characters released, this set is a must have!
Collectability 5/5
Price:
In Japan these keychains can be found in Gachapon machines currently for 300 Yen which is less than $3 a figure. If you want your own full set in the USA, you can import the full set from NCSX.com for about $25 which is awesome considering MOTHER merch becomes very sought after!

Hyrule Warriors Gachapon Set Review! 9-19-15
Takara Tomy A.R.T.S has released a set of Hyrule Warriors Gachapon including Link, Zelda, Lana, and Ganondorf!
Each figure is about 2" tall and come on a Triforce base to keep them upright. These are standard mini figures with no articulation but you can move their attachable parts around to change poses even though they aren't meant to.
Zelda's small details and paint gradient job looks excellent!
Zelda's small details and paint gradient job looks excellent!
This is the first figure of the adorable and popular Lana in her signature pose from the game art. Link unfortunately suffers from derp face but not too badly. This is a recurring problem with this set other than Ganondorf due to their eye details. Link also has the cool option of having a held staff or sword which is a neat little feature for a figure this small!
The Ganondorf figure was an odd design choice considering they chose his Twilight Princess/Smash Bros. costume instead of his Hyrule Warriors version but looks great for being so small with only minor paint tweaks here and there. Compared to other recent Ganondorf figures, he makes a great addition and looks cool among the bunch with a slightly different pose and holding his sword!
Verdict!
Paint:
For only being 2" these figures look pretty great for the most part but no have minor paint bleeds here and there as expected. The colors are dead on but the eyes could look better on most of these.
Paint 3/5
Collectability :
This is the first figure available for Lana, HW Zelda and HW Link which make them an awesome addition to any Zelda fan's collection. They fit in nicely with the large array of other figures from prior sets that are all around this height. They are also a refreshing addition to Zelda collecting with the current flood of Wind Waker merch and lack of Hyrule Warriors memorabilia.
Collectability 5/5
Price: At 300 yen a piece MSRP, these figures are a great price and will surely skyrocket in value like all Zelda merchandise does. To import these, you are looking at anywhere between $20-$30 which still isn't too bad considering their uniqueness.
Price 4/5
If you would like to purchase your own, this set can be purchased from Ncsx.com as an import provider.

World of Nintendo Series 1-1 8-Bit plush set review! 8-26-15
Jakks Pacific has released a new set of 3 8-bit style plush which include Mario, Luigi and Link!
Each plush is filled with a firm foam to retain shape with a set background color stitched all the way around to the back. Some of the stitching can vary in quality as seen by the side shot above.
Each box of these in stores come with 2 of each plush per box. The box itself is designed to look like an NES which is a really cool design choice and makes for a cool retro display!
The box makes a great storage for NES games and with these plush, you will be able to make some really cool retro style setups! They look great in any collection!
Verdict!
The character designs are spot on and very neat. The stitching on the sides tend to vary from plush to plush but since you will most likely always be looking at the front, its a minor complaint. Stitching 4/5
These plush are not very soft or huggable but they allow for a lightweight character to be displayed wherever you like! They are too small to be a throw pillow but still accent any game room well! Plushiness 3/5
These plush currently sells for about $17 which isn't too bad considering the level of colors and detail each plush has! It does seem a bit steep compared to other plush their size but these are fairly unique. Price 3/5
If you would like to purchase your own, they can be found at Toys R Us stores in the NES box above and come 2 each to a box.

Series 1-3 of the World of Nintendo figure sets have released bringing us the much loved and needed Fox Mccloud figure!
Fox has articulation in his legs, knees, ankles, shoulders, elbows, head, as well as hit tail being able to move up and down.
The paint job on this figure is pretty good with only a couple minor nonmatching colors coinciding next to each other but hardly noticeable!
The paint job on this figure is pretty good with only a couple minor nonmatching colors coinciding next to each other but hardly noticeable!
Fox comes with a tiny trademark Arwing ship that resembles what it is supposed to be but were a little sad that we don't have a large version of one or one for Fox here to pilot himself!
You can do some cool Super Smash Bros. and fighting poses with this figure. Fox does not come with a blaster or hands to hold anything with.

Sizewise, Fox looks great among other characters his size and is always showing off his readiness for a fight!

Todays Collectors Spotlight we're sharing the Wonderful collection of Jeffrey Taylor and his massive Pikmin collection and Super Mario 64 Goods!
CS: What got you into collecting?
JT: One of my first video games was Super Mario 64. As a kid I would spend hours designing worlds in my head like the ones featured in the game, and I always wished I could create them in reality as well. I attempted to with Legos, but was never able to accomplish what I wanted. When I got older and saw there were more accurate ways to achieve this goal I started collecting video game memorabilia. My favorite game at the time was Pikmin 2, which had a world I liked even more than Super Mario 64, and that was the world I sought to replicate for quite a long time.
CS: Favorite and first item?
I don't recall my first item. When I first started collecting I bought a lot of fake items from China on eBay because they were cheap. It wasn't until later when a friend introduced me to a forum for collectors of video game memorabilia called Video Game Memorabilia Museum (http://www.videogamemm.com/forums/index.php) that I realized the items I had weren't authentic, and I started to collect official items.
My favorite item is my Super Mario 64 Adventure Playset. I got it from Yahoo Japan Auctions, (Basically the Japanese eBay) and it's a motorized marble game featuring locations from Super Mario 64. It was broken when I received it, but I was able to fix it myself. It's very cool, very loud, and extremely hard to find outside of Japan.

CS:What types of memorabilia do you collect, and from what video game franchises?
JT: Originally I got whatever I could afford, although it was mainly just Mario items. I mostly get figures and plushes, preferably figures, as I feel they have the most likeness to the in-game characters.
While I expanded to many more franchises than Mario over the years, I've sold the majority of my collection to pay bills and other necesseties. The only items I have now are from my favorite games, and the franchise I have the most items from is Pikmin. Pikmin 2 has one of my favorite settings of any game I've played, and I was able to create a diorama that fulfilled my initial dream of replicating the settings of games that I had when I was a kid. While I couldn't recreate a location from the game, I was able to create a battle that would be realistically possible in the game.

CS: Where did you get all your Pikmin memorabilia, and what would you say that it's worth?
JT: The vast majority is from Japan, from Yahoo Japan Auctions, the website I mentioned earlier. I spent a couple hundred of dollars to acquire the 100 or so figures I have now, which is much less than they go for outside of Japan. I've sold some Pikmin figures on eBay for $5 a piece, but the enemy figures can go for $30 or more, along with the Captains. I would value my Pikmin collection around $750.
CS: Is there anything else you'd like to say in closing?
JT: I think the coolest thing about collecting is that it's a way to have tangible items of intangible things. While I rarely purchase items anymore, it's a really great feeling to play an amazing game and be able to buy something that reminds you of it every time you look at it.

CharaForm Chrom Figure Review! 7-26-15
The Chara-Forme line figures is proud to present Fire Emblem Awakening's Chrom! Sculpted by Monolith, this chibi figure is reminiscent of a Nendoroid figure.
Chrom come with a detachable Falchion sword as well as a removable base.
Chrom's articulation is limited to only his head which has be turned in any direction.
While there there are not any other current Fire Emblem Awakening figures of this size, Chrom looks great amongst other Nendoroid figures. He dwarves his daughter Lucina here but its nice that they both finally have figures!
Chrom is ready to lead the charge against enemy forces! Here's hoping he can be among playable characters in Smash Bros. someday!
Wishful Smash Bros. thinking with these shots here! A good ol fashioned Sword fight against Toon Link!
Verdict!
Chrom has a solid paint job all around looking very, clean, neat and professional. Paint 5/5
His articulation limits poses but still looks great on a shelf and with other figures! For this type of figure I cannot complain. Articulation 3/5
Chrom currently sells for about 3000 Yen Price 3/5
If you would like to purchase your own, he can be found here! http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-009971&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dchara+chrom%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1

Welcome to the Collectors Spotlight where we share the spotlight on amazing fans who collect gaming memorabilia and show their passion for the series they love! This section came about due to my love of gaming merch and the fondness of others who share the same passion I do!
Today we share the Spotlight on Rhiannon Winkler of Fourswordsgreen and her amazing collection of Legend of Zelda and Princess Peach goods!
Rhiannon started collecting when she was about 11 and is 19 now! The first item she added to her collection was a green Zelda jacket that she got for Christmas and still has to this day!
It's always tough for a collector to chose their favorite item in their collection but she feels that would have to be her Ocarina of Time adult Link plushie as it was the second thing ever added to the collection and she loves him to pieces!

Rhiannon looks forward to adding more figures to the collection such as the ones previously missed out on.
The thing that would just top everything for her would be if Shigeru Miyamoto himself signed her Majoras Mask 3DS.
She even met Eiji Aonuma at the Legend of Zelda 25th anniversary concert and was so awestruck that she shook his hand for a minute straight because he complemented her dress. What an honor that is!

The Wind Waker Throw blanket is her favorite bed decoration due to its amazing beautiful design and style! We couldn't agree more!
Rhiannon has The Legend of Zelda: Triforce Heroes for the 3DS preordered which is awesome as its shaping up to be an amazing game! Here's hoping it gets some amazing merch to go along with it that fans can cherish for years to come!
