I would go for it if I haven't already put money down on a pre-order at EB Games.

Except those new sets are Iron Man 3 related and TRU expressily omitted them from the sale, for whatever reason.

This was good news on the K'Nex front though, I got to price adjust Diddy and DK and picked up Toad and Yoshi for cheap... Bring on Target and the NSMB Wii wave so I can have all of them.

I broke and picked up the NSMB wave, I broke the decoder for it if your interested. I couldn't seem to find one on the net for the new stuff

That's ok, I skipped out on Mario and Luigi from the Wii Kart wave so I could just snag the entire Wii SMB wave and not have to worry about codes. Just snag one of ever unique underlined number and bam, all nine guaranteed.

I kind of hope they make a big Airship set with Bowser Junior, I've always wanted an Airship to display and as long as it wasn't too expensive or too loaded down with cheap gimmicky things I think it would work quite nicely as a decent display item.

I'd also like to see them branch out abit with a few more characters, namely more colored Yoshis and Toads (Like the SMG Toad Brigade), the entire group of Koopalings, a DK Country wave with Cranky, Dixie, Lanky, Chunky, Tiny and maybe Candy if they ever went that way, wouldn't object to a few Kremlings and Funky either. Plus, Daisy, Rosalina, and maybe a few villains like Goombas and stuff.

They have to own the entire roster of anyone from Marioverse and possibly a few more from DK verse at least. Naturally I'd also like to see more power-up suits, like Penguin Suits and Tanooki Suits and Hammer Bros. Suits a Frog Suit Luigi would be hillarious. Er, but I digress.

One minor nitpick, my Diddy has paint issues on one of his eyes, it's a bit faded and the iris is too large because of it. Not that bad I suppose, I can't really complain, this is the most affordable method of collecting fun little Nintendo themed characters for my shelf without wasting money on those non-poseable PVC style figures. Kind of wish they could hold LEGO accessories though, but their hands are too large, I couldn't even get them to hold the LEGO banana piece for my 'Oh Banana' image I wanted to do. (You'd have to have played DK64 to get that reference.)
