No game room is complete without a pinnacle piece, and perhaps this near life-size Mario could be the perfect attention-getter — and/or nightmare inducer for small children.
But obtaining a nearly 5-foot-tall homage to the world’s most famous Italian plumber might be tougher than beating Bowser with only one life left. This giant Mario, available through Dream Shop in Japan, costs a whopping 285,000 yen ($2,900) plus shipping. Hopefully you’ve been saving up all those gold coins collected over the years.
