A talented Nintendo fan has created an incredible custom Bowsette Amiibo, sharing the process that resulted in the figure in a DIY YouTube video posted yesterday. The Bowsette Amiibo uses the existing Peach Amiibo as a base, so it isn't made entirely from scratch, but it's still a sight to behold.

For those unfamiliar with the current Bowsette craze, which has now moved on to more Super Mario characters as well, it all started when Nintendo revealed a new trailer for New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. In that trailer, Toadette joins the cast as a new playable character and brings a new power-up item along with her - the Super Crown. When Toadette touches the Super Crown, she becomes a hybrid of Peach and Toadette named Peachette. It's not clear why the Super Crown was introduced or what implications it is supposed to have for the Mario franchise, but the internet had other ideas for it anyway. Fan art of Bowser wearing the crown, creating what is most commonly depicted as a slightly different Peach in black clothing with fangs and horns, has taken the world by storm.

Now, YouTube user GandaKris has capitalized on the burgeoning non-canon superstar by creating a custom Amiibo in her honor. The Bowsette Amiibo might look relatively easy to make in the video GandaKris posted, but that's likely because she's got quite a bit of experience with this kind of artistic process - the finished product is gorgeous, and looks like the kind of product Nintendo would release for Bowsette if she were a real character.

Thankfully, GandaKris also went with a more tasteful approach, failing to include any of the more erotic elements that have started to become standard in fan art interpretations of the Bowsette character. The custom Amiibo color-swaps most of the standard Peach attire and adds horns and fangs, making it a much more suitable introduction to the character than a quick Twitter hashtag search would yield.

Unfortunately, despite how quickly Bowsette has ascended to Mario stardom, Nintendo hasn't done anything to acknowledge that the company is considering making her character canon. That's not necessarily surprising since Nintendo likes to keep things family friendly where possible, but amidst the sea of hentai and weird romantic pairings is a character whose design and existence are very fascinating. If Bowsette continues to resonate so strongly with Mario fans like GandaKris, Nintendo might not have a choice but to figure out a way to integrate her into future Mario plans.

Until then, there's plenty of fan art to keep the dream alive, and GandaKris's custom Bowsette Amiibo is a wonderful example of the way fans can make something their own even when the game's creator refuses to acknowledge its existence.
