Build-A-Bear Workshop's quest to licence every popular media property under the sun is set to continue with the announcement of a Super Mario range of stuff-em-yourself toys.
The store - which already sells a handsome line of Pokémon plushes - is releasing a series of themed teddies, as well as a range of accessories. The standard bear can be outfitted as either Mario, Luigi or Princess Peach, provided you buy the right clothes. Bowser and Yoshi are also part of the range.
If you visit your local store you get the chance to fill their flaccid skins with soft, white fluff. Kinky. More boring types can simply order the pre-stuffed teddies online. Toad only comes pre-stuffed, so we sadly won't get the pleasure of inserting a cold metal pipe up his backside and watching him slowly - and painfully - inflate. Boo.




Which one is best? The following image should give you the answer.

Jennifer Kretchmar, chief product officer at Build-A-Bear Workshop, had this to say, presumably in-between rubbing her hands with glee at the thought of all that sweet, sweet cash the company will make off the back of these infernal things:
Super Mario is a classic game franchise many of our guests know and love, and we've had a lot of fun bringing these characters into furry-friend form. Like Build-A-Bear, Nintendo's characters appeal to everyone, so we couldn't wait to team up for the first time and offer another way for guests to enjoy the timeless brand with a new collection.
Will you be adding these to your cavern of soft toys, the door to which is locked whenever you have visitors over? Yep, we will be too.
The range will be available in-store this weekend.

I just came out of the shower and you've soiled me with your filthy innuendo.
Heigh ho, it's back to the shower I go.

.......why would you say this
@Darkwario1 : He must have picked that one out of the hat he wore whilst performing the full monty.
BOWSER
The San-ei Super Mario soft toys are far superior to these
I can't wait to stuff Peach with something hard. I mean soft and flaccid.
Please Nintendo, stop making things that I want. I had no idea I wanted a Build-A-Bear Bowser until now. Goodbye sweet money
Glad I'm not the only one weirded out by those innuendos. It's not as if you were talking about a princess peach doll (I'll stop right there).
The Bowser looks so amazing though...
I want that Luigi-kuma!
Article of the year right here. Lol
defo Bowser best, don't like the Mario / luigi bears!
I want the Mario, Yoshi, Toad, and Bowser. Oh hell, I want Luigi and Peach too...who am I kidding? LOL
Ah snap...I want Toad, heh. :V
I want that Bowser. Making a trip to Build A Bear soon! The chances of me walking out the door without all of them are slim...
I have young daughters. Can use them to visit Build-A-Bear without coming off as creeptastic.
Still some way off Mario Pikachu as the cutest cuddliest thing to ever don a Mario hat and moustache.
That is, unless anyone sees my Mario Pikachu and raises me a Mario Kirby or something similarly ludicrously adorable. I'm accepting all offers.
100% need Toad and Yoshi. I wonder if the Mario World hoodie will fit Yoshi with him having a shell? Thatd be super cute!
From what I've heard only the Bowser plush will come with a sound chip. Can anyone confirm this? Also if this does turn out to be true is there any reason why only Bowser got a sound chip?
Looks like somebody had fun writing this one, huh @Damo?
I want one . LoL but I really do want one.
Aah.... Kawaii desu !
I want that Mario Bear !
