Club Nintendo 2010 Platinum Award Statue

[Voidoid]

Okay, not Turtle related but I figured some folks here would be interested. I achieved platinum status, ordered the statue, completely forgot about it, and it arrived at my door today. It comes with EVERYTHING and the figure is still sealed in the plastic. The box was only opened to look at the statue. It even has the "thank you for your feedback" card from club nintendo. It also comes in a big yellow question mark box .Open to offers so let me know.

$30 shipped. I only ship within the U.S.

How much do you want for it? Wasn't it free?

Technically no. I had to buy the games to get the codes, so in a matter of speaking it wasn't free. And as I stated I'm open to offers. Not looking for much on this.

Sorry to post without interest of purchase, but, how does one achieve platinum on Club Nintendo? I practically puke codes on them, haha.

Haha, it's cool dude. You basically have to enter a crap load of codes before a certain date. You need 600+ coins to reach Platinum status, and you have to get them before june or july? Correct me if I'm wrong here...

This is from Club Nintendo:

"Elite Status Coins

An elite status is based on the number of Coins earned in a Club Nintendo year. The Club Nintendo year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Club Nintendo members that reach Gold or Platinum status by the end of the Club Nintendo year will be sent a special reward. See our FAQ for additional information."

Hope that helped..

Is it kinda cheap looking in real life. Mind taking a pic?

It doesn't matter if it was "free." It's his to do what he wants with... :trolleye:

Thanks, dude. Hopefully I can earn one myself! About how tall is that sucker?

It's more than just entering codes. You take post-play surveys, general opinion surveys, "intend to buy" surveys, and stuff like that. Plus, you can link your Wii and DSi shops to your Club Nintendo account and get coins for certain games purchased and surveys taken. I've somehow managed to reach Platinum status both years thus far, heh. Wondering if I can do it again this year. Frustrating that only Nintendo-published games come with the coin-earning registration codes.

What really gets me is why the items in the Club Nintendo store are so "pricey." One little Mario pin is 450 coins. That's the equivalent of 7 Wii games and a DS game. Most people aren't gonna get to that many coins in such a short amount of time (and they expire after three years). Such a gyp. There are four pins. They tease you by saying, "Collect them all!" 450 for a set of four sounds right.

But yeah. Usually crap items, way too expensive. My coins expire mid summer, so I hope something cool (and not too expensive) comes out before then. Really jealous of Club Nintendo Japan's cool items. Europe also gets generally cooler things in their Club Nintendo than North America's. Gyyyyyyyyp.

I'm well aware of that...

I wasn't saying wasn't it free as in "You should give it away," but as in what did the cost you kind of thing.
