Was walking around Toys R us and saw this toy hammock and then saw Banjo Kazooie on it! How odd is it to have an n64 era item just laying around to use to stage a photo for some packaging in 2017.

    Could have been from Rare Replay.

    Nope. Definitely the BD beanie from N64 era because I have the same beanie in my collection.

    Is it to remind us that Nuts N Bolts exists?

    I'm going to give an educated guess that this is from a small company and marketing sent out an email blast asking for people to bring in stuffed animals for a photo shoot. I'd suspect this, rather than collecting a bunch up from Goodwill because the junk at Goodwill would either be worn out and/or overpriced.



    You couldn't bring in a Mario or Yoshi and expect it to be used because everyone knows about those characters However, a Banjo and Kazooie is likely to completely slip by anyone in marketing looking for identifiable IP.

    This isn't a coincidence. It's a statement that Banjo Kazooie on N64 will never be forgotten. This might even be an ad for Yooka Laylee.

    Ha, that is pretty amazing. He has the bug eyed look like "Please get me out of here!"
