For those that ordered their reward if you either got the calenders or the Mario Characters figure.



Why does it take so long for them to deliver it? I was so happy when I found out that they would be having the Mario characters figure on there for the reward. But then it says it won't be delivered until the end of December. I think that is BS.

Well they do have to tally up each person who picked which item. Then they have to order that set amount of items. It's to complex for me to explain at this moment and it's more complex than click button Nintendo ships it out tommorow. Nintendo has a huge install base to fufill. So of course it's going to take a while to recieve your item.

I guess that's kinda understandable I was still disappointed. I mean they could easly get everyone's address and ship out their items simple as that but I guess it isn't.

Last year I think I got mine in October or something. All it says is that they will be delivered by the end of December, not at the end of December. But yeah, this isn't like a video game - they don't manufacture as many as they can. People have until the end of the month to claim their bonus and after that time, Nintendo will know exactly how many they need to make.

The items aren't made. Which is why the Gold calendar pictured is the 2010 one, not 2011.

The "December 2010" date is just a placeholder.

@popple oh I get it lol I bet it will be delivered by augest or september.

got my platinum reward today.. looks awesome

[AndyTheZombie]

Yeah there finally preparing my reward as we speak!!


I'm also looking forward to my tote bag as well.

[mariomaniac45213]

So I got my new tote bag it's pretty nice. Though I don't have anything to put in it.

Still waiting on my Mario Figurine should come today (I hope).

EDIT: It didn't

[KingBroly]

I still haven't gotten my figure. Man, this stinks.

[Mako]

I still need to get my Mario pin, figurine, and tote bag. Wonder what's taking so long.

[MARIOMARIO123]

does anyone have any pics of the reward maybe with a size comparison i have no good idea of how big it is

[hellfire888]

the card you see in the pic is the same size of any business card.. the figure is 3.9 x 4.6 inches.. not real big, but nicely detailed.. i read yesterday that there is supposedly some of them that has a bowser with no eyebrows.. but i haven't seen any pics of it. so it could just be bull.

[MARIOMARIO123]

Lol, even in a stature Bowser is still trying to steal peach, Look at his right hand

[hellfire888]

they are all over ebay for cheeeeap compared to the older platinum stuff from the past.. i wonder why? do people just not like it? is it cause its still real new?... and i still havent found a pic of one without the eyebrows.. its looking like the guy that was talking about it on youtube was full of it.. i just dont see nintendo knowingly shipping out messed up rewards.

[Mako]

Just got my figurine, Mario pin, and tote bag yesterday. When I first saw the box that the figurine shipped in I thought it was going to be huge. Then you open it up and it is mostly protective plastic... Still pretty cool though.

[mariomaniac45213]

Got it, and I must say the box is wayy cooler than the figurine. I'm keeping my Wii controllers in it.

Now that I got the box what am I gonna do with the Wiimote holder I bought?

[MysteryRockman]

Sadly, I wasn't able to get my Mario figurine. Nintendo told me they had a shipping problem and they tried contacting me twice.

As a result, no Mario figurine for me.

[Ngamer01]

I got my figure today and the ?-Block is a nice touch. I got it and the figure sitting on top of the shelves above my video games.

LOL that's the same place I'm keeping mine.

Great minds think alike, huh!

I'm keeping mine in the box; same with my Mario pin. Could be worth something some day.

[hellfire888]

they'll be worth something one day.. look at the gold mario statue.. they're going for around a 100 now. i really want one of those famicon classic controllers

[Koopzilla]

I've been platinum for the last 2 years. I've ordered the Hanafuda cards, the mario poster set, the mario hat and the mario statue. I can't really complain since it's free (considering you bought the game). But, I would like them to have figurines for prizes, including from games besides mario. Too bad they didn't have this when the Gameboy Advance was around because I would like to have some more faceplates for my Gameboy micro, since I could never find any.

Same here. I could never find any other face plates besides the ones that came with the system itself. I did get the Micro pretty late though...

Also worth noting here: Club Nintendo has restocked and updated with new prizes if you haven't seen yet.

[hellfire888]
