Mario Party Rosalina Collection

         The Mario Party series is near and dear in my heart. Mario party 8 was one heck of a good game, probably the best one I've played. The only contender is Mario party star rush because I loved playing it when I was bored or on long car rides. It was so fun using all my Rosalina amiibos to continue after loosing lives in the tower mode. Now, it is a small section and there isn't much to go off of, but I'll do my best! 


         There's one thing I'm missing but we'll come back to it shortly. First off, the Mario Party 10 cards. There were 20 cards of various characters that made up the MP 10 box art render. They were made by Top Seika, who you might remember did some cards for other Super Mario franchises. The other 4 tiny squared cards? They aren't really cards but rather part of a matching game released to promote MP Superstars.

         Now, to the amiibos. Unlike the Smash ones, I don't have the original release for the European or Japanese amiibos. I do however have the Mandrin version that was released in China. The restocks are already coming out as well! I remember buying the NA amiibos at my local Target, Best Buy and Walmart when they originally released. I was so happy finding them, I had to convince my dad to buy me one everytime I saw one at a store.

         I did notice a slight differences in the NA version with the CN version. I'm unsure if this is exclusive to the CN amiibos or if time has discoloured mine but when comparing both figures, there are color differences, possibly due to the CN amiibo being a reprint. The dress on the CN amiibo is more saturated. The hair is also a lighter color than its NA counterpart. Just something worth pointing out!

         Next post, I'll do a list of my least expensive items and most expensive items. There will be two of these posts, one for all general merchandise and one that is exclusive to trading cards/cards. Let me know what your guys's thoughts are!

Least and Most expensive items!

Image
           I've made around 130+ purchases during my journey to build my dream Rosalina collection, so I have a decent idea of what items I expect to be expensive, inexpensive, sought after more/less or simply region specific items not available to others. Today, I'm going to go through a list and talk about my top 5 least and most expensive items! If the item was bought online, I'll show the full price paid (accounts for shipping too). I'll also go by the price that they were bought, unless they were purchased at MSRP. This will include items that Rosalina may appear in but might not be the main focus (cameos). Without further to do, let's start! Least Expensive item #1: Jakks Super Mario 2.5 Inch Figure!!            Let's start off with the least expensive item. At $2.25. Crazy I know! We have wave 46 of the Super Mario Jakks Pacific figures line. In this line, the packaging was altered. Instead of being held on by a plastic ...

Super Mario Galaxy Rosalina Collection!

Image
          I want to start introdoucing you to my collection, but i'm afraid I don't have a good spot to show all of them (°ロ°) ! Let's start off with Super Mario Galaxy (SMG) and Super Mario Galaxy 2. SMG has always been one of my favorite games Nintendo has produced, replaying it over and over. When I began collecting SMG/2 merchandise based around Rosalina, she surprisingly had a handful of items. Some of them were trading cards and stickers but also found a few neat things as you can see below.          There's a mix of cards and stickers lying down on the table as well as some luma magnets. There was even a tattoo made by Enterplay! My favorite cards here are the SMG2 Rosalina 3D card by Ensky and SMG  Rosalina Foil card by Enterplay . I obtained the 3-D Rosalina through Yahoo Auctions Japan through a shopping proxy and t he Rosalina foil through eBay.  Left: 3D card / Right: Foil card    ...

About me!

      Hello! My name is Rosaset, a collector based in the United States that specializes in collecting merchendise of Rosalina, a character from the Super Mario Series. I want to start posting my collection as well as inform others about where items can be obtained, their history and other intresting things!      I got into collecting when the pandemic first started back in March 2021, using Ebay as my primary source of obtaining items. Since then, my collection has expanded massively and I have also started collecting other items from different franchises.       I'll start out by showing my collection categorized by games and afterwards get into how to get items and such.      I'm excited to begin posting and engage with others!         - Rosaset Linammer
