Jakks Pacific’s World of Nintendo line is still going strong. Toys and other merchandise are in the works, and a number of new additions are on the way.

We previously spoke about the Splatoon blasters. Aside from the strange-looking Link pictured below from Breath of the Wild, upcoming items include a bow and arrow set, jumbo plushies, Splatoon Splat Balls, Nintendo playset featuring Peach’s Castle, a repackaging of Toad at Family Dollar, and more.

A tentative schedule for some of the toys is as follows:

4″ Hitting in March
Ice Mario, Inkling Girl, Lakitu, Bowser Jr (paintbrush this time), and “Classic Mario”

4″ Hitting in June
Mario Maker, Luigi (open hands), BotW Link, Iggy Koopa, and Yellow Yoshi

2.5″ Hitting in May
Dr. Mario, Blue Baby Yoshi, Larry Koopa, Purple Squid and Red Bob-omb

We’ve known about Jakks Pacific’s Trophy Series and Prototype Series figures for some time now. But before the weekend started, some new ones were shown on Twitter.

For the Trophy Series, the new additions are Ganondorf and Tanooki Mario. Toon Link and Olimar are being added to the Prototype Series.

Store exclusives seem to be involved here. With the Trophy Series, they can only be found at Walmart. Target has the exclusive on the Prototype Series.
