JAKKS Pacific readies The Super Mario Galaxy Movie toys

JAKKS Pacific has renewed its partnership with Universal Products & Experiences, Illumination and Nintendo for a new collection of figures, playsets, plush and more based on The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

JAKKS Pacific’s toy collection inspired by the 2023 film – The Super Mario Bros. Movie – was a top performer in 2023 and 2024. Key items in the new collection include 5-inch figures, 1.5-inch mini scale figures, a Yoshi Egg playset, a Deluxe Bowser Castle playset and Gateway Galaxy diorama set.

“JAKKS Pacific’s products inspired by the first film, which earned more than $1.3 billion worldwide, quickly became fan favourites, celebrated for their high-quality designs and for the attention to detail they brought to Mario and other beloved characters within the Mushroom Kingdom,” said Rafa Macias, Global Commercial Officer, Consumer Products, Games & Digital, Universal Products & Experiences.

“This new film and toy assortment offer an even more immersive out-of-this-world universe for fans to explore, and we look forward to seeing how fans embrace both the film and JAKKS Pacific line.”

Jeremy Sueper, VP of Marketing at JAKKS Pacific, added: “Teaming up again with Illumination, Nintendo, and Universal Products & Experiences for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie toy line has been incredibly inspiring.

“Together, we are working hard to bring fan-favourite characters and memorable movie moments into the home that both longtime fans and new audiences will truly enjoy. We look forward to unveiling the full line soon.”

The new movie lands in cinemas from April 1st, and the collection is available for pre-order now at Walmart and Smyths Toys.
