Super Mario Bros. Wonder isn't even out yet, but it's safe to say Elephant Mario has already stolen the show for most of us.
Donlan summed it up in his Super Mario Bros. Wonder review for us: "But Elephant Mario is the star. What a guy."
Nintendo seemingly knew Elephant Mario would be a big hit with fans, as there's already a plush in the works by regular official collaborator Sanei Bokei, due for release in January 2024.

Sanei hasn't announced any other elephant plushies for Luigi, Peach, Daisy, or the Toads, but I'm sure they'd prove popular too.
There's not long left to go before we'll be able to run around in Super Mario Bros. Wonder as Elephant Mario ourselves, as the game is out tomorrow. If you want to play it fresh, watch out for spoilers online. You're probably good to read about potty-mouthed flowers modded into the game, though!
