Not available in wool

How do you revamp Nintendo's famous pink ball and bring him smack up-to-date in this 3D era? By flattening him down, of course. That's the thinking behind Kirby's Epic Yarn and seemingly the same thought process went into the latest gift available from the European Club Nintendo catalogue: a Kirby flying disk.

Made of nylon and sponge and bearing the cutesy likeness of gaming's biggest sucker, it'll set you back 2,500 of your finest Club Nintendo VIP Stars. Just imagine: you can spend the rest of your summer throwing this around and repeatedly explaining to people why you've got a Kirby disk.
