#podcast | Jakks Nintendo Figures | #gaming Preserved | Acquisition #012

Welcome back to the Rkaydz Museum — where reverence meets retro.

Today, we induct three stunning examples of modern toy craftsmanship: the Jakks Pacific Mario (2023), Princess Daisy (2024), and Ice Luigi (2024) collectible figures. Born in the wake of The Super Mario Bros. Movie’s billion-dollar success, these figures don’t just represent characters — they honor legacy.

From Jakks Pacific’s roots in the toy industry to Nintendo’s shift toward display-worthy merchandise, we explore how action figures evolved into museum-quality artifacts. These aren’t just toys… they’re tangible nostalgia molded in plastic and painted with precision.

👑 Join us as we inspect every sculpted detail and induct them formally into the collection. A white-gloved welcome for three ambassadors of the Mushroom Kingdom.
