Mushroooooooms...........

Didn't know where to quite put this, but it has "Nintendo Goodness" stamped all over it - so......

Just recieved my 1up 'shroom the other day.

Here it is sitting on my laptop:


Look at those beady little eyes:

Re: Mushroooooooms...........

Yep.....maybe I should've ordered more?

I seem to remember shipment was quite fast actually.......about 8 days as far as I remember (most Dealextreme stuff takes about 10....so was quite good).
I'm not sure if the Xmas rush will affect things though

Re: Mushroooooooms...........

Aaah thanx for that Tetlee .
Just ordered a red and also a blue one. Was contemplating buying a yellow one too and painting the white "dots" red ("supersize me" 'shroom ) but didn't think I could do a great job so I left it for now.
....RGB 'shrooms are enough for now

You mean the Mega Mushroom? That'll be a lot better as I don't remember seeing a yellow and white mushroom in the last 20-odd years of playing Mario games.

^^^^ agreed, the nearest I could find was the golden one, but no yellow one. I chickened out of buying it in the end as I wasn't too sure I could paint perfect red circular spots exactly over the white ones (I was rubbish at art in school ).




EDIT: They arrived on Saturday.
Spot the mushies --->
