A very silly (and cute) post π€ͺβ¨
Hello! First of all, the thing I had last Thursday ended up going well and faster than I expected! Thank you again to all of you for your love and support π₯Ήπ₯Ήπ₯Ή You're all so amazing!!! πππ
Remember the pic I shared a few days ago with Mario himself? π€π Welp... Two days ago, after "the thing", I went to the fair again with my friends and had lots of fun, and I went and took pics of all the weird (and cute) Marios I saw here and there π€ Soooo.... Are you ready to see them? π
As I said, some of them are cute while some others... Well π
I'll let you judge by yourselves. This is gonna be a very silly post with some cuteness here and there, so I hope you enjoy! β¨
I didn't know there were Super Mario Pop figures... nor that most of them looked so weird π€π
Glad to see Explorer Mario from Odyssey though! As well as a Green Mario π€π
I have to say, most of these plushies are very cute! I really like the last pic because it looks like Peach is hiding behind Mario so that he can protect her π€π₯Ήπ©·β€οΈβ¨
Okay... Mario, what's with that stache? π
This may look like Mario, but if you look closely... That is NOT Mario! That's Red Luigi!!! π± The stache and clothes and hat may be Mario's, but the face? It's Luigi's!!! π±π±π±
I have to say, these are the weirdest sets of Mario toys I've ever seen... Most of them look horrendous π
Especially Bowser and some Peaches, lol, though, again, I like to see that there are so many different Marios and Luigis, like Metal Mario or Bubble Luigi, as well as King Penguin and the Rabbids! And, of course, Peach looks very good in Daisy's yellow dress π€π
These are some random figures and things I saw, and, please, if by any chance you know what the two latter things are... I'd be very happy to know πΆ
These little figures π₯Ίπ₯Ίπ₯Ί The absolute CUTENESS πππ I had bought some of them last year (specifically Mario Maker, Fire Mario and Green Mario), and this year I saw Mario on a plane and it reminded me so much of Super Mario Land that it came home with me π€ Also, I don't care at all that Mario has never ridden a unicorn: that figure was so freaking CUTE that I also had to buy it π
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Green Mario, what happened to your leg????? π©π©π©π©π©
Again, some Odyssey references! And, again, weird Bowser and Peach π Toad looks really good though!
I may or may not have bought one of these 3D posters... π€ I was very surprised and happy to see not only Mario Kart and Galaxy, but also Rabbids! π€©π€©π€© That's the game I'm currently playing so it was really a nice surprise!
The last two things I'm gonna show you are two fairground rides, so you'll see there are some emojis or red paint here and there: those are people π
The fair is always VERY crowded and these two rides were meant for children, so it was very hard to take pics without people in them. Still, I hope you can see them as clearly as possible! β¨
Look at this cute bouncy castle with Mario and Luigi and a pair of Game Boys showing Super Mario Land π₯Ήπ₯Ήπ₯Ή Listen, I LOVED these things when I was a child, so believe me when I say, if adults were allowed in them, you BET I would've jumped in the very first day πππ
Also, I took the first picture from the top of the Ferris wheel! π The quality wasn't very good, but I just had to seize the chance and photograph the bros from the air π
This one, apparently it's made like the videogames? π€ With places you have to jump and climb and such, I can't be sure because, again, it's only for kids π
But I really loved seeing it from the outside as there are so many beautiful drawings of the characters! π€©
I LOVE how angry both brothers look on the pic on the left π³π³π³ And also how in the next two we have Mario Kart, Sunshine, Odyssey and Tanooki in just one look π
Also, on the second one, I tried taking pics of Mario and Luigi using their Firebrand and Thunderhand, but unfortunately that one was on the second floor, and there was a fence in front of it to prevent children from falling off, so it was VERY hard to take a decent pic from below π
Still, I wanted to include it because, I mean: Superstar Saga reference!!! π€©π€©π€©
I'm pretty sure you're gonna LOVE the next two π
It's THEM!!! π€©π€©π€©π€©π€© The best brothers in the entire universe!!! Of course I had to take a pic of them!!! πππ
And... are you ready for the next one? π₯Ή
IT'S THE COUPLE EVER. AAAAAAAAHHH
My God, I can't even explain how absolutely HAPPY I was to see they had figures of Mario and Peach, nor how tremendously HARD it was to take this pic as there were always children right in front of them π
(or taking pics with Mario, obviously, which I would've done too if possible!)
BUT IT'S THEM. THEY'RE TOGETHER. AND THEY LOOK AMAZING πππ
Lastly, before I leave, let me show you the cute figures I bought! β¨
As I said, I couldn't resist to the cuteness of both the plane and the unicorn ones, and the shroom and regular Mario are joining a family that I started making last year! π€π
As I mentioned, last year I bought Maker, Fire and Green Mario, but I couldn't find regular Mario. Which is why this year I immediately went and bought him as soon as I found him! π€πβ€οΈ
I hope you liked the many Marios they had this year at the fair in my city! πππ Out of curiosity: which one was your favorite? And your less favorite? π€
Love you! πππ

Apropos of nothing, here's my personal headcanon in regards to Mario and Luigi's surname.
Now, it's been generally announced and accepted that the brothers' last name is "Mario," shackling them with the somewhat awkward full names of "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario." My take on this is that the family's original last name was "Marianetti" (likely coming from the more common "Marinetti"). This name was changed to "Marionetti" when the boys' grandmother came over from Italy. (A common occurrence in record keeping at immigration at the time. Someone probably had bad handwriting and smudged a pencil stroke somewhere. It happened in my family for sure).
In Brooklyn, their father went by the last name "Marionetti," which ended up shortened to just "Mario," as oftentimes he would be addressed by his surname only. (Think, "Hey, Mario! Get over here!" as opposed to "Hey, Marionetti! Get over here!")
So, the boys are born and get their names. (Their father's middle name was Mario, and so our Mario, being the oldest, inherits his father's middle name as his first name. Luigi's name maybe comes from the middle name of some uncle who is long out of the picture).
So we have "Mario Marionetti" and "Luigi Marionetti." Which, their surname being a mouthful, gets shortened to "Mario" more often than not, just like their father. And thus we end up with "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario," culminating in the "Mario Brothers."
