Thanks everyone!
@BogusMeatFactory I totally went with the one we were talking about. I had about five back and forth emails with some guy at NoA asking, "are you sure!?". Yea ... I'm 100% positive.
I can't wait until it gets here.

By the way, Cron, if you don't mind me asking, how big is that shell? It's hard for me to tell.

Good job having the luck to win that thing and it should be fun to see what you did with the Mii too.

That's awesome! The blue shell looks very nice
The McCollum wood burned well.

The blue shell isn't huge, it's about the size of a softball, not including the stand. They showed it in the video I linked too which gives a pretty good sense of scale.
I am pretty surprised by the quality, it's pretty nice, I've seen worse quality statues in expensive collector's editions. I wonder if it's identical to the Collector's Edition statue they had for Mario Kart 8 in Europe, though.
I don't want anybody to get too hyped or disappointed about the Mii or anything, it's not like I had a Mii of Predator made. But, I think it's pretty cool. Obviously, I'm not going to really say what it is until I can show it. Hopefully, they do a nice job and don't pick an expression that's ridiculous or something.

Really cool! Congrats!
Did they e-mail you to tell you that you won? What was your reaction?

The suspense of this Mii is killing me. Especially since the NoA guy had to question if you really wanted it or not
