Bandai S.H. Figuarts Action Figure — Super Mario — Yoshi 11cm
This premium action figure from Bandai Tamashii Nations’ prestigious S.H. Figuarts collection features Nintendo’s most famous and food-loving dinosaur companion: Yoshi.
The figure has compact dimensions, standing approximately 11 cm tall, and adheres to the collection’s scale to fit perfectly alongside other characters from the Mushroom Kingdom. True to Bandai’s technical standards, this fully articulated figure features an ingenious joint system that allows you to recreate the running and jumping movements characteristic of platform games. The PVC plastic sculpture faithfully recreates his green silhouette, his red shell acting as a saddle, his large orange shoes and his chubby cheeks. The set stands out for its remarkable interactive accessories: removable eyes to change the direction of his gaze, an interchangeable tongue extension to simulate the action of swallowing enemies, a green-spotted egg, and interchangeable back pieces specifically designed to allow Mario or Luigi figures (sold separately) to ride on his back. A dedicated transparent display stand completes the set.
This collector’s item is primarily aimed at retro gaming enthusiasts, fans of the Nintendo universe and collectors of exceptional articulated action figures. The item is presented in its original protective display box.

Character background and lore
First introduced in 1990 in the masterpiece Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo, Yoshi (whose full name is T. Yoshisaur Munchakoopas) is a small anthropomorphic dinosaur from Dinosaur Island. A member of a peaceful species that comes in a variety of colours, he instantly became the faithful steed and steadfast ally of Mario and Luigi. With an insatiable appetite, Yoshi possesses the unique ability to gobble up his enemies using his long, slimy tongue, instantly transforming them into speckled eggs, which he can then hurl as tactical projectiles. His popularity was cemented by the prequel game *Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island*, in which his entire tribe rallies to protect and carry Baby Mario through hostile lands to save him from the clutches of Bowser Jr. and the wizard Kamek, establishing himself as a figure of devotion and heroism at the heart of the Nintendo franchises.
