Super Crap Trophy: Brawl trophy from GameStop is terrible photo

The above image is what GameStop is offering the winner of its Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournament. As you can see, it is the worst thing in the world. It doesn't even have anything to do with Brawl, save for the vague and tenuous hint that the golden man in his underwear might possibly be about to engage in combat of some sort. That, or he's about to crap his unnecessarily tight shorts because he's realized he's a really, really bad trophy. Also, why does he look like Jimmy Osmond!?

Without hyperbole I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is the single worst thing I have ever seen in my entire life and that it is worse than anything Chris Benoit ever did. Somehow though, GameStop is not only expecting people to desire this lump of rubbish, but to also be proud of possessing it and display it in public as a testament to becoming the "local legend of wreckage."

I expect Jonathan Holmes to bring this monstrosity to the Destructoid camp anon. Then we can burn the thing to cinders.

It makes no sense! With only the tenuous link to wrestling, I am very disappointed with this.

[i]Dear Nintendo,
I won first prize at a Gamestop tournament, but I decided that you guys deserve this masterpiece more. So, enclosed is the trophy, with the original text whited out and written over in Sharpie: "To Nintendo, for making up for lost time with online functionality by making it easy for strangers to come together and enjoy the full camaraderie that the online gaming experience provides so that new alliances and friendships can be formed, and also for releasing Kirby games in a timely manner."
I ran out of room on the stand, so I wrote some of it on the dude's backside. I hope you don't mind.

Love,
maxchain[/i]

I'm going to win one of these and stick it in with my Star Wars Collection, and tell everyone it's really Han Solo frozen in carbonite while in the shitter.

Not sure what Jim Sterling here thinks he knows, but by no means does Gamestop expect people to publicly display this crap trophy with pride. If anything, corporate is probably laughing their asses off, saying how funny it is that all these chumps even came to the half-assed tournaments they held. Way to go, tools.

Hhahahahaha that really doesnt have anything to do with Super smash Bros. Brawl. Dis game stop just happen to run into a whole warehouse full of old 60's high school wrestling tropies or did nintendo actually intend for the winner to take it home as a cool trophy. Either way i'll say fuck it I kicked ass!

That's the last character that you unlock. His name is Goldy, and his final smash is the Golden Shower. You unlock him right after you unlock Birthday Suit Samus.

@ Axelay,

I'd totally want some child-rape lymericks.
And some spousal abuse haiku's.
