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.

EU?
As it says in the article, yes.
I know Prosody, I was showing my jealousy
Man! I seriously wanted this! Prosody, you should've put in big, bold letters, "For Europeans ONLY!!" instead of the original article title.
About how many coins might the Kirby Frisbee translate to in the NA?
And NA barely EVER gets anything good from Club Nintendo. The posters were okay, but that's just it. I want Hanafuda as well, but it's expensive.
Changed to mention Europe to overcome any assumptions being made.
wow, i dont want that.
Thanks, but the only Kirby disc I want is Kirby's Epic Yarn.
See what I did there?
What?!
Not in the US!!!
Who do I have to Kill to get meh that Kirby flying disk!!!!!!
That way, I can spend the rest of my summer explaining to people, why did I get a Kirby disk
@Cipher I wish my writing had been that clever.
Oh my goodness. I need this.
man that looks cool...I love Club Nintendo--US. They're...uh...great....?
This looks cool, but I just spent all of my coins for the deck of cards. Now I need to raise a couple of hundred for when this eventually comes out
oneday N/A will give us a good item like eu and jpn get
ASAAGHRUAMAGFGGGAAAAAA
I want one too.
Bleh I want one in AMERICA
You lucky, tea sipping chaps
Just ordered mine so it should be with me in around 8 WEEKS!!!!!!!!
Great, but what about America?
They've also got a DS case shaped like Mario's hat for the same price.
I happen to have exactly 2500 points right now. Hmm, what to do...
EDIT: I opted to do a few surveys and get the K.K. CD for 3000 points instead.
Want.
Can anyone give a rough idea of how much it might cost me to get that many stars if I lived in the EU?
If it was 2,500 coins, that'd require registering 50 first-party Wii games (is that possible?)
I'd probably start envisioning how to make my own if it were that price.
SO UNFAIR! I need this badly. NEED IT! Pleaseeeee?
@KingMike: On average a retail game gets you 200 to 250 stars and 50 stars for every Wiiware/DSiWare/VC game. So you'd need codes from about 10-12 games.
I want it!
I want it. It would be the best thing in the US CN shop. It isn't made out of plastic though?
I want it so bad
It's only a Frisbee? What's so great about it??
I think Nintendo could get some much better incentives in club nintendo.
The only thing that intersts me atm is wii points.
Now to carry on saving my 6500 stars
Do want.
I would much rather have had that Mario figurine Platinum US members get. I'm not such a big Kirby fan so I'm not getting this (though I will get Epic Yarn).
Why is that us Americans NEVER get any cool Club Nintendo stuff!
Now I really want to import 1 oh well cant wait for Kirby's Epic Yarn though.
Ive been waiting for it since 2005 when it had that 64 Look now its even better
Those lucky Europeans. Not only is this not on the North American Club Nintendo, but the Super Mario Galaxy soundtracks aren't there, either! Lame...
PunnyGuy is right we NEED!!! More Club Nintendo stuff like Tingle's Balloon Fight, and Plush toys >0<
