Gaming is not part of my geekness — well, except for Angry Birds. But I do have friends who are quite proficient in various video games and so have heard the term Metroid bandied about amongst them occasionally. However, I did not realize just how cute they could be until I spotted Ellen Kramer‘s series of plush keychains of various characters from video games. For sale in her shop on Etsy called Smellestine, the key chains include Pokeman, Mario Star and Metroid.
