Video Game Super Stars[1] is a series of go-kart action figures based on Mario Kart 64 and Diddy Kong Racing. The figures were created by Toy Biz (now Marvel Toys until it was absorbed into Hasbro in 2007), released around 1999. The figures also come with attachment items that came from the games when interacted with the figure. After the figure is wound up, the go-kart racer moves forward and shoots out both items from the front and back side. Toy Biz also did another figurine, which includes Mario with translucent arms, a red go-kart, and a Boo item in place of the Green Shell.
