I know Peach is a princess but am I the only one who would have preferred her to be the Queen?

glthe board is rubbish, but the pieces are nice. if you are teaching your child Chess, not recommended, the pieces are not traditional in the sense you can't intuitively know what a Knight, Bishop etc are.
I bought this for my son, but taught him Chess on a traditional set first. He says 'that was a good move, Daddy, I'm glad you checked mate.....' :laughing:

hey that looks pretty cool, just most who buy will never use or cant even play chess. But £20 seems ok.

I'm hearing a lot that the chess board is of poor quality - any one know of where to get a decent one that would go well with these?

I'm sure any collector would love this.
Me: What do you have there
Collector: A Super Mario Chess Collector's Edition set
Me: Ah cool, how many do you have?
Collector: Just one, I mean they only made the one set, I know I'm a collector but I don't really see the point in collecting the same thing more than once
Me: Cheap hobby then
Collector: Yes I think so

Thanks Fred was tempted at £23.99 the other day. But under £20 is my biting point.
Edit: If I was going to be fussy though the actual board is pretty poor. Why they needed to write Super Mario "Chess" on there is beyond me. Just a quality chess board would of been better.
