I haven’t done a good job of showcasing them here at IAT, but I’ve been loving the Tamashii Nations Nintendo Figuarts line. I haven’t picked up Fireball Mario or the Villains set yet, but I’ve got the first six releases and they’re all pretty great. It’s not a line I follow the news about religiously – I’m usually playing catch up with the releases, like the 1-Up promo, but I get there.
I was surprised to see a nice, big Figuarts Nintendo case at NYCC thanks to the coverage over at ToyArk. The case had everything released so far plus a couple of surprises: a second villain set including a Spiny, Hammer Brother, & Lakitu as well as the next figure: Bowser!
Check out that link to ToyArk for some great pics of the display. I’ve also got a couple of “>affiliate links below if you’re picking these up on the domestic side:

I ordered that Bowser. What can I say? I like the big lug, and the only figure I have of him is the near-tailless one that came with a go-kart all those many years ago.
