A Look Back At The Takara Super Mario RPG Plushes!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- One aspect of merchandise that I haven’t really gone into in too much detail in the past is its relation to lost media. There’s actually a lot of notable merchandise that has been lost over the years. May it be cancelled products, products so rare that barely any images of them exist, or in this case, products that are so impossible to find that they are simply rumor. And that is the case with the set we'll be looking at today! The Takara Super Mario RPG plush set!
In this video we look at the entire known set of these plushes, going in depth on their many pros and cons. More importantly though, I'm joined by fellow collector and all around cool guy LSuperSonicQ himself to discuss the case of the rumored Mallow and Geno plushes.
Special thanks to LSuperSonicQ for voicing the segment on Mallow and Geno, if you haven't watched his videos yet I highly recommend them: / lsupersonicq

Oh man! Just gotta say that I have never once searched anything "plush" related but when this popped up in my recommended I figured "eh what the heck" gotta say man, from someone who isn't interested in plushes at all, i think you might have just made me a collector.
Ah shit
You always start somewhere
Plastic Spork He's already made me a collector, He made me get a kellytoys mario plush, a goldie toad plush, and for the heck of it i got a used all stars goomba with a tag still on it
I really want to start collecting plushies. Not just to say I have them, but to play with them as well.
At first I was just a game collector now I’m just a Nintendo merchandise and game collector
That moment when you once had the star plush but lost it while moving

I'm sorry for ur loss
Look in your garage, attic, parents garage and attic. And go to your old house to look for it in the attic and garage. If you have basements look there also

UPDATE: THE SET IMAGE WAS FOUND

Nah,6. +Sheet it's 7 items
The Geno plush doesn't exist, the set sheet got leaked. Mallow exists though.
We could only hope
@@jamieisanidiot wait show me
I really dig that Yoshi plush. The chubby cheeks are adorable. :3
You speak wisely fellow video game enemy.
I know right! I love it! It just screams 90s Yoshi,which definitely makes it a must have for any collector who's a fan of Yoshi!
Me too
Mario also looks really cute.
Beeg yoshi
I don't think geno exist for one big reason
He'd be too complex his design has so many little details a plush made in the 90s I don't think could capture
Hi, PatMac! Just wanted to take this time to say just how much I _love_ your channel. It's so interesting! I recently got the full set of Hooters Sonic Forces coasters, and if it weren't for your channel, I wouldn't have known that they existed! Anyway, that's it for this rambling comment. Let's hope you'll get loads more great vids, and more importantly, subs, in 2018.
Edit: Thanks for the heart!
Iggy30874 how the hell did you do italics?
Sn0wySk3l3t0n who is basically meme trash - Basically, you put an underscore directly beside your text on both sides.
Wouldn't you do it by / like, "it makes _no_ sense." ;-;
_sample text_
this reply list is so weird, why is there an example and sample text, and what is italics? and meme trash? also there is no underscores in his comment so i dont know why hes talking about that.
I’m Always Ready For A Look Back Videos
Also 🅱️oshi
Same.
Could you imagine the seller finding out now they had a super rare plush and just sold it? Idk, that would just stink to find out how rare it is and they just quickly sold it off to a high bidder.
You brought up an interesting point with the Mario plush in this set. I don’t collect Nintendo much, and to me - every Mario plush I’ve ever seen looked the same. But this one is totally unique as it is (like u said) probably the first to ever be “accurate” and still hold up today. I think that makes it really cool and helps it stand out from all the rest. Once again, another fantastic, in depth video :)
And in 2020 the set sheet was FOUND! Mallow exists but not Geno
Yeah and for some reason scorpion man from batflight and snake-eyes appears in the set image along with teethless carbuncle CURSED.

You're the only RUclips channel that I know that can review a plush perfectly without even owning it.
I really like the look of that happy bowser plush from the 1st seller.

10:12-10:18 oh I am so glad this statement did not age well.
Same here.
mario's hat was perfectly cap-tured
Sapphire Sheep DAYUM
Lol I get it
I read this comment whem he said it XD
YOU.............
LEAVE NOW
Interesting, I had no idea there were plushies from Mario RPG. makes me wish they had more merch for the Paper Mario and Mario and Luigi series. Especially Superstar Saga plus Bowser's Minions. it would've been such a perfect idea to have Fawful, Cackletta, Popple an Prince Peasley as Amiibos.
I wonder if we will get another plush set now that the game is getting a remake.
I wish lol
Nah
That Boshi plush has been one of my most coveted items for a long time. I really wish Nintendo could bring him back and use him again and we could get more merch of him.
Boshi Yoshi
I share your pain. Nintendo is yet to make a plush for a green shy guy
because of the new remake, it could totally happen.
Anybody here after the news? They found the Set Sheet and Mallow is official!
I can't believe it's actually real
@@UltimateSpiderPlush2 no Geno in the picture sadly
I've already been subscribed to you for less than a couple months and your content just blows me away it gets me back into collecting again!
Wait,what if its supposed to be 3 pairs? let me explain
Mario & Yoshi - characters that often(or always)appear in the series.
Mushroom & star - Items
Boshi & Mallow - Characters new to Mario RPG
wouldnt it then make sense that Geno really doesnt exist?
woah
This makes sense because most UFO plush sets are released with 6 plushies.
Although, there could also be a chance that Mallow could just be an unreleased prototype as well. Which is what I suspect.
to be Fair, Takara DID Release 7 Plushes to Promote Kirby's Adventure...
I came here after the set image was found, geno isn’t in it
Love that you remade this bid with the voice over hopefully in the future we can get a new sonic the fighters plush set video either way I love any vid you make so keep up the good work
I used to have an old Toy Network Sonic plush,it went missing for 4 years,but I found it today in my closet. I also remember receiving a prototype Kellytoy Mephiles plush 2 years ago at a comic con.
I’ve got mallow :)
Hello! I know you most likely won’t see this, but I just felt the need to say it
I can’t even begin to tell you how much I adore your videos! They’re wonderfully put together, and even though I’m not a plush collector myself, are very informative and interesting! Your editing is superb 👌🏽
I’m going through an incredibly stressful time right now, and your videos have been such a comfort to me - I’ve binge watched just about all of your plush videos, and they’re wonderful! I genuinely can’t thank you enough for all the hard work you put into your videos - they’ve gotten me through a lot, as corny as that may sound
Thanks again, and keep on making amazing content, dude!
Hello! Thank you so much, that means so much to me! I know my videos are pretty niche, so it absolutely makes my day whenever I hear that people outside of the collecting scene enjoy them so much. I'm very sorry you're going through a hard time, I've been stressed out with schoolwork myself (which is why I only tend to upload around once a month haha), but things have gotten easier lately. So, I hope things get better for you very soon! Again, thank you so much and good luck!
PatMac You are so kind - I can’t thank you enough for the reply! I’m so sorry you’ve been stressed out too though (but happy to hear it’s getting better!), we all appreciate you, even though you’re busy and stressed out, still making such great content! And don’t even worry about your upload schedule - you’re never obligated to pump out content constantly; you’re the most important person in your life, so self care and taking breaks are very important! It just makes your videos all the more special and exciting when they do come out! And a month honestly isn’t even that long a wait considering the production quality of your videos lol
Again though; thank you so much for being so kind and positive - that comment absolutely made my day!
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs in one video!?! Sweet!
Top 10 most epic crossovers of all time
I learnt a lot of information about Mario plushies from this video! Thumbs up!
What if many people had a Geno and Mallow plush, but all their parents threw them away.
geno plush does not exist
this was the dumbest assumtion ever
like why the fuck would they even do that. what the fuck would be the reason. why arent other plushes randomly thrown out for no reason. what were you thinking 5 years ago
@@Gizeh59 I was 12 years old then, child brains are really stupid
A set image for the set has been found. It shows, Mario, Yoshi, Boshi, 2 Mushrooms, A Star and... Mallow! So, The mallow plush is real, and the geno plush is fake.
I actually own the Star plush, I have it alongside my other old plushes. I even still have my Sonic Adventure plush set, and a Starfy plush too I remember buying it when I was little at an anime convention I bought it alongisde a Domo plush. I really need to examine my plush set since I know I own a whole bunch of rare ones that my sister and dad got way back when since they've been playing video games since the 80's. I'm going to be moving soon, so if I find anything of note I'll be certain to comment about it. I tend to listen to your videos in the background while I'm doing something so it'll most likely be on either the newest video or whatever one I just so happen to be watching at the time. Oh and about that Starfy plush I have it right behind me now, when I was a kid I kinda sorta cut off the tush tag because it was annoying and it scratched me alot, but I know it was an import because it was in Japanese which I confused for Chinese as a child. Oh but I do know that I own a Blue Shell Mario from New Super Mario Bros DS and a Boo Mario from Mario Galaxy. Just a few I remeber off the top of my head.
I love getting comments like this and meeting people who have these old plushes! When you find what else you have, I’d love to see pictures of it all! Feel free to link an imgur upload of a collection picture or something, I know very few people with that Star! A few weeks ago, I did get the RPG Mario in the mail, so now I know how awesome this set is first hand. Thank you for the great comment!
W-Wow I honestly didn't think my comment would even get noticed. Let alone so soon after I left it, I have already gone through a little bit of my collection mainly just the stuff I had in my closet. That's where I found my Starfy again, most of the stuff I have out now are things I grabbed at E3 last year like a set of two giant Mushrooms from Mario a 1-Up Mushroom and a Super Mushroom. Alongside this cool Cappy plush that doubles as a hat, so now I have a Cappy Visor, an original Cappy Hat from the Odyssey bus and a Cappy plush hat from E3. Oh and I snagged a 20th anniversary Kirby plush as well as a New Leaf KK Slider plush (I just had to have DJ hipster KK) I don’t know if any of them are really worth anything, but I thought they were cool so I grabbed them.
And you would be surprised how many different plushes they had there, although the Mushrooms where only display pieces, the cashier was nice and let me buy both of them for $50 each, I remember spending about 1-2,000 at E3 that day, I went to the PlayStation booth and grabbed a whole bunch of neat things and collectibles they only sold there. Man I could tell stories of the event that happened there, but I’m getting sidetracked.
I’m honestly more of a collector of Video Games and collectors editions then of plushes and figures. But that doesn’t mean I don’t collect plushes and figures, in fact I have an entire Persona Plush, Figure, and other merchandise collection as well if that interests you or anyone.
Oh and I also now know why you complain about the shiny material used on some plushes since my KellyToy Super Sonic plush is starting to look a bit weathered in some places.
But so as to not allow myself to talk and or write for as long as I usually do, I’ll simply end it with this. Thank you for the quick response and well a response in general. I normally don’t get responses to my comments from the creators because I tend to leave long comments and I assume they lack the time to read it or just don’t notice it. But now I’ll be certain to leave a comment when I go through my things later. And if I happen to find anything else of interest before then, I’ll be certain to leave a comment about that as well.
PatMac you *what*
THE MALLOW PLUSH IS OFFICIAL! AN OFFICIAL SET IMAGE WAS RELEASED!
But no Geno sadly.
19:39 that tmnt set interests me
JDIZZLE me too!
Watching some of your videos are giving me the collectors itch! It's making me want to buy certain collectors plushes that I normally wouldn't have too high of a priority for,and even worst is that I have almost no money to spend on them! Agh! It just goes to show how good your videos are if they're giving someone an incentive to buy old plushes to want to own them.
THE SHEET WAS FOUND! MALLOW IS REAL!
But, Geno’s not. ☹️
Wait what?! I never new it was found!
I Actually Saw A Listing For a Mallow Plush On Ebay For $50 Plus $6 Shipping . But It Looks To Good to be true
@@MoltenKenny04 wait WHAT
@@MoltenKenny04 I'm sorry to say that but this is custom
I know maybe geno is out of the frame
That Yoshi plush looks absolutely amazing... It's such a shame that it's so rare and expensive. ;~;
I don't know do you take video suggestions, but I have one:
what about 'A Look Back At The Jazwares Sonic Super Posers'
Again, not sure if you take them, but it'd be pretty cool to see! :D
Yes that would be cool
Uhh..... yeaaaah..
WonderCreek but those for were made in the 2010s he’s talking about those from the 1990s
JigglypuffRainbows [Artist] What’re you talking about
JigglypuffRainbows [Artist] He talks about things from all time periods.
Please do the Mario kart takara plush!
I second this
I third this
That winking 1992 Sonic, it has to be rarer than STF SSJ Sonic
I've only ever seen maybe two pics from it. The one I show in the video from SonicGear and another one I found on a Yahoo Japan archive, and that listing from from idk 2007 or something. Very mysterious but could maybe be just a custom edit of the existing plush.
I actually think one is on eBay right now, or was I've seen it while looking for my holy grail of plush collecting (stringy sonic)
Excuse me did you just say "ssj sonic"? Sonic is not a sayain-jin.
But does it matter?
Superjayjaysaiyn yes
Awesome you redid the video,I really like your commentary
This might be stupid, but I've always believed that the reason the Mallow plush is so incredibly rare is that it was a prototype that went unreleased. I have literally no evidence, but, seeing as how NOBODY has any evidence got anything regarding Mallow, I just thought I should throw my cap into the ring.
We found a set image, and he was in it!
8:25
Maybe since there is an smrpg remake they might make more merch of boshi...
they didnt :(
PatMac... you sir are the only human being who can make a documentary about a rare set of video game plush interesting.
Update: Super Mario RPG is getting a remake. Geno might finally have his time to shine
Time for a rerelease for the remake
The Geno plush probably just got a star inside of it and left
When I saw nightram's video on Boshi and Mallow all I could think about was this video. So amazing to see them now!
4 years later, Mallow actually exists and was sold for 34 grand
Why does mallow have a buldge in his shorts
Empire owo whats this?
hes ready
That's where he keeps his *ＦＲＯＧ ＣＯＩＮＳ* .

Mallow's packing,but it seems like he just can't hide it
The one I have seen for sale was boshi.
Did you buy it?
Tavlak Doina no it was 1,000 dollars
I’ve actually seen one recently that’s going for $1600. Well there goes my hopes and dreams.
Here lies CloudySkies17695’s Hopes and Dreams
AMA Animations what a baby
8:11 damn, 5 years later and a super Mario rpg remake is coming out, meaning we just might get boshi merch, and mallow and geno as well.
Since the game is now being remade, A New Plush set should be made in the game’s new style and would have Mario, Bowser, Mallow, Geno, Boshi, Princess Peach, and Luigi and Yoshi and even Croco too. That would be a cool idea!
[Mallow pops up for the 3rd time]
Everyone: *AAAAAA FREAK OUT AAAAAA*
Ive seen a few of these go up over the years for sale since 2013. The last time I saw these go up for sale was the day the stock market crashed on a small Japanese site. It was a Mario plush and yoshi plush and they both sold for over 2k a piece and that was when everything was tanking - cars, stocks etc. I can only imagine what they are worth now

Another amazing in depth look at something really obscure!! I’d love to see a history of Mario and Nintendo fast food toys, as some of my favourite pieces of merch are the Taco Bell Yoshi figure and the Wendy’s Mario Action figure! Also World of Nintendo! If you ever want some help on a WON video I have a complete set and I am friends with the former director of the line!
Thank you so much! I'd love to make videos on both of those topics! I'm really interested in you saying you're friends with the former director of WoN, do you mean Toysoldierz18? I'd love to get in contact with him! I'm sure he knows tons of internal info on the line that would be super interesting to learn about, especially cancelled stuff (I remember he posted about a 6" Skull Kid a few weeks ago).
PatMac Yeah Toysoldier! I’m not like close personal friends with him but I’ve been in contact with him and he’s helped me out in the past. I could ask him via instagram If you want? It be pretty fun to see an interview with him!
Oh nice!! That's really exciting, I'd love to get in touch with him! I think the best way for me to talk to him would be through Twitter, so if you could introduce him to me and ask him to give me a follow on Twitter (twitter.com/DaPatMac) that would be hugely appreciated. I know of a lot of cancelled WoN products that I would love to get answers to, and I'm sure he'd be able to help me out a lot in my search! And yeah an interview would be awesome, maybe in the future!
PatMac Definitely! I’ll point him towards your RUclips and Twitter, do you have Instagram?
Nope, I never saw the need to get an Instagram. But I'm very active on Twitter and already follow him, so yeah that'd be the best place. Thanks again!
Those plushes look awesome.

Good job again can't wait to see more vids like this
Peach? Geno? Nah they'd prolly make another Yoshi variant in the form of Beeg Beeg Yoshi
I saw a post on the nintendocafe tumblr where they asked fans if they would like a SMRPG remake for the switch, and if that does happen I would hope and pray they make a plush toy set for it. Maybe then I can finally get my hands on an official Geno plush.
HOLY SHOOT, An Amazing Patmac Video remake, With LSSQ?! Heck Yes!
Yaaaaay my favorite video on this channel reuploaded with your voice this time!
To bad these Plushes are so rare. :(
I. Need. That. BOSHI!
Holy CRAP
Boshi... Plush....
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
I definitely don't need it....
I NEED IT!!!!!!!!
Anyone come back here after Mallow was confirmed real?
Yeah
Wait he was????
Who else is here about the remake and that we MIGHT get a new plush set of SMRPG critters?
MALLOW CONFIRMED,,,, WIG!!!!
I have found out that the saddle on Yoshi’s bak is actually a shell from reading Yoshi’s description from Yoshi’s Crafted World on the Nintendo Switch News
There was an LSuperSonicQ thread on the lost media wiki that has a catalog picture that concludes that mallow is official and geno doesn’t exist, here’s the thread! forums.lostmediawiki.com/thread/247/existence-unconfirmed-super-mario-plushes
Who knows, the remaster of the game may bring newer high quality plush sets
No matter how sad you are, Mario rpg Boshi will be there
Ok, so, no one is going to comment that a set sheet has been reveled for this set and mallow (sorry if I spelt it worng) is conformed and geno is not?!
No one is going to??
Me: I wonder if there's a super hammer plush
My friend: oh yeah I like mario maker 2 aswell!
My inner thoughts: everybody doesn't know history's treasure...
The Set Sheet was found mallow is a real plush but not geno
I love that he puts his script in the description

This is such a cool and unique RUclips channel! Rare plushies are so much fun to talk about.
These plushies are so great! I want to collect all of them! I hope they make a plush set for the Super Mario RPG 2023 game!
YES! I was waiting for this. Great video.
I love this video, it's so informative and such a fascinating subject! I'm sort of a low-key collector, I don't really pursue the rare stuff due to it's pricing, though of course I dream of finding them for cheap at thrift stores. XD I've been very curious.....is there no way to contact the company and ask them about this? It just seems like an obvious solution that would have been done by now if possible.
Thank you! Unfortunately it’s probably impossible to contact anyone who worked on the line at this point. The plushes are 20+ years old now, so the people who worked on it probably forget or don’t have anything saved anymore. Maybe the companies would have archives but idk. Also there’s a language barrier as even if someone got in touch with someone, they’d have to know Japanese. Hopefully someone who worked on the line comes out someday and explains the situations, but we’ll see!
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for replying!
0:16 winking 1992 sonic plush
Oi
Its a custom
Oh of coooourse! Of course I have to think the Mallow is so freaking cute! And I know I’m never gonna get my hands on that fluff of cuteness😭😂
I know this is old news now, but a set sheet was discovered in June 2020. It’s nice that we have one now, but it does kind of take away from the mystery this set once had.
Just email Takara in a very professional way hoping they reply normally with a full list
What a coincidence! I just barely started watching LSuperSonicQ like, right before watching this video! That's kinda cool.
I have the sanei Mario Party 5 Yoshi!! Found him at goodwill for one stinkin dollaridoo 😂 I never knew these existed... urge to make my own Boshi is slowly rising.
Nintendo when making Mario and Luigi Superstar saga:Hey remember those two Mario RPGs we made....what if we add Luigi
This is an antdude reference
Yes!! I love your channel it's awesome
The set image has been found. It has been confirmed that mallow is official. Or Atleast a prototype
Yes! A remake of this reveiw! I have been waiting for this for a long time!
HELL YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
a remake of this
17:20 IS THAT A PLUSH OF BONK IN VOLUME 2???
i wish i had the blue yoshi in that set:(
It was probably a bootleg, but I saw a listing for a Boshi plush on ebay that apparently sold for $3000...

Idk, nothing cuz I like mallow more than geno...OH NO THE FANBASE GOTTA RUN!
The mellow could be a prototype like the fire mario Kelly toy plush
Awesome video and a great collaboration, love both of your guys work
