I designed a poker table topper, and am going to order some soon. They are sized to fit an oval Barrington poker table (73.75" x 31.5"), 5mm thick, with rubber backing, and have stitching around the outside edge to prevent fraying. They will be dye sublimation, so the print quality should be great.

I'm an 80s kid so retro Super Mario Bros has always been near and dear to my heart. I paid a designer on Fiverr.com to create 10 Mario characters in "poker theme." The results were pretty epic and I think this mat is going to be legendary, if this is your thing :)

Let me know if you'd be interested! They are going to run around $115 shipped (maybe a few bucks less) to CONUS. I am not going to make a huge profit on these; I’m only trying to cover the design fees that I paid + material + shipping (both ways).

Looking forward to hearing what you all think!

I'm okay with either shape, but I would prefer a rectangle if possible. I love this design! And would def be in for a couple if you get a group buy going for them.
 
Don't mean to be a wet blanket, but what are the rules around reproducing/printuing the Mario characters without the permission of Nintendo?
You are not being mean at all, Nintendo is known for being ruthless about their IP. I would assume that as long as we are making these for resell we should be good?

You will have trouble having them printed by most vendors without permission from the IP owners. The more you print the more wary they are going to be.

I've gotten permission from Pabst brewing to use one of their logos on a custom chip set but beer and poker go together better than video games targeted at kids.

My guess is Nintendo will say no but you won't know unless you try.

There's always one! Lol jk. I figured since I'm not ordering 5000 of these and not selling for profit or resell it would be cool for us to just get a few mats and enjoy them. I also paid for the artwork and there is TONS of custom mario artwork on Etsy for sale (I paid for the Super Mario World font you see in the middle of the mat as well).
 
Nintendo is in the Porn business, they bought the rights to 2 productions so they couldn't be sold / shown again.

I doubt they would spend the money on the lawyers to pursue a one off like this.

The idea / felt is awesome!!

Sounds like the next group buy! :)
 
I'm interested, but I need to measure my table which is not a Barrington, and is put away right now.

I'm also interested in getting my own custom artwork on one of these, so I will probably be contacting you by PM to discuss contacts / prices for just one or two.
 
Great work on this table top. A very fun theme and great for board game night with the family as well! In for one.
 
I would prefer a rectangle topper as well. If it’s the same size as the PCF toppers it would be perfect as there’s also a nifty carry case from Amazon that would fit
