Near Complete BD&A Nintendo Collectibles Plushes/Keychains Collection

[sirjake1192 | 62]

I have all the keychains & almost all of the normal sized plushes. I’m just Missing First Print Luigi & Mario with Fludd

[Tanooki | 5,190]

Aren't you also missing Cranky Kong?  I don't see it in that spread on the top picture.  Not that it's for sale, but I do have one I keep on my shelf.  I got it a great many years ago and never knew it existed even at that rate so it threw me off when I saw the stitched in rear tag, but it is BD&A.

[sirjake1192 | 62]

Oh yes I have Crank Kong & the rest of that DK line. I just didn’t include them because they’re Toy-site, which is still part of BD&A but I’m just focusing on the ones that are tagged as BD&A.

Just acquired both plushes I had been missing from my collection I’ll post an updated picture in the coming weeks.

Wow congrats! Those must have been a pain for sure, super nice collection I don't think I've seen anyone with a complete one. Nice work.

[sirjake1192 | 62]

Thank you! Yeah it took quite a long time & definitely a lot of luck! I could go for all the different variants but I think having one of each plush/keychain is a great place to finish this up.

My Collection is now complete!

1st pic is my complete collection & 2nd pic is my complete collection of First Prints

That is sweet! I have searched for a few of those for years without any luck. Congrats on such a unique and difficult to acquire collection!

[sirjake1192 | 62]

Thank you! Yeah I’ve been trying to find some of these for years too, I honestly never thought I’d find a Black or White Yoshi. A lot of it was just lucky timing when some of these were posted online. If you’re still searching I’d check out Mercari, that’s where I found a few of the rare ones that weren’t on eBay.

So cool! Congrats on completing your collection! Love the Banjo-Kazooie.

[sirjake1192 | 62]

Thank you! Yes those two are some of my favorites

[sirjake1192 | 62]

My current collection. I think I now have every BD&A Nintendo Collectibles plush (including all variants) for the normal size, promo size, keychain & 12” talking plushes. I know there are bigger sized plushes but stopping at the 12” plushes is good enough for me 

[Tenjikuronin | 1,854]

Nice collection!  36" versions of Mario (winged hat version) and Donkey Kong were also available - only through the Nintendo Power Supplies catalog.  I remember ordering Mario way back when and he was super expensive ($100 if I remember correctly).

Thank you! Yes those are awesome but I had to stop at the 12” plushes because I’m like there’s no way I’d have room for the bigger plushes as awesome as they are

My brother used to have maybe 2 dozen of these back when they sold them at 7-Eleven. 
 

He sold them all off one day when he was cleaning his room for like $40

I would say due to the lack of consistency, no two of these are identical (some look really strange). So there’s probably unlimited variants

Yeah that is true especially for Diddy Kong  lol some are doubles but there are quite a few different variants that are noticeable especially for the wave 2 plushes.

Are these slightly smaller ones the “promo” variants from your post? They’re slightly bigger than the keychains but also slightly smaller than the standard plush.

Yes so those smaller yoshi’s are from a Nintendo power catalog 4-pack offer. Like Princess Peach, that’s the only way they were sold. They’re actually the same size as the white & black yoshi’s too.

Awesome, thanks for the reply. Excited to hopefully one day collect em all like yourself. Merry Christmas !

Interesting I will have to keep my eye out for these, usually I pass on most gaming swag. What is BD&A, and what makes them collectible?

They’re a company that used to make plushes, figures and other accessories for Nintendo properties in the 90’s. I believe they still continue to make 3rd party controllers now but I could be wrong. These were very popular during the n64 era, being sold in places like target, Best Buy & Circuit City. There wasn’t a lot of merchandise back then like there is now. Some plushes for this series are very hard to come by and were released in limited quantities. For example Princess Peach could only be ordered through Nintendo Power & the black and white yoshi’s were mail in pre-order bonuses for Yoshi’s story.
