K'Nex Mario Kart Toys Incoming
These are too cool!
Gentleman! you see before you the most articulated Mario figures on the market!
seriously, mario is a moneymaker, any toymaker would be happy to make figures from this license and they give it to k'nex? Seriously? WTF?

Am I not allowed to find it odd that k'nex or that company that makes vinal toys has the money to buy the license to a profitable character like Mario and not one of the larger companies? These are pretty much KO legos with mario tossed into the mix for crying out loud.

However, the K'Nex brand is a profitable one. K'Nex branded Nintendo merchandise does nothing to tarnish the Nintendo properties. And if a company with a good reputation and a profitable business plan offers a few million dollars for a license, you don't turn it down.
Also, Global Holdings produces the Super Mario toys currently on the market. They, from what I can tell, only produce Super Mario toys. So I'd say they have a pretty solid hold on the license for action figures, which is why no one can step up.
Be interesting to see who else K'Nex has up their sleve for this line!

Come on, Bowser!
