Blik makes "surface graphics…for people who like to change their mind [sic]". They describe them as "stickers for grown-ups". The idea is that you put them on the wall as a way of redecorating without messy paint or wallpaper. Among the various options are some officially sanctioned Nintendo themes, complete with the same golden seal of approval inspired by the E.T. game.
I can think of worse ways to spend $75 than to give your bedroom a Donkey Kong theme. Of course, that's assuming you're an 8-year-old boy. Otherwise, short of installing shelves for your action figures, this is about the worst thing you could do with $75. Until you have kids, that is. At which point, maybe you can distract them from trying to open and play with your action figures by giving them sheets of these stickers and telling them to go to town.
Incidentally, this is the far more hip set of blik stickers.

I'll have to send this link to a buddy of mine, he recently moved his bed into the study next-door to his room, to make room for additional action-figure display.
This is in his parents' basement, and no, I'm not kidding, enough so that I hope he doesn't somehow find his way to this comment.

Tom, you need to replace that kid-size silhouette with a 6 foot tall shadow of a man in his mid- to late-thirties. Drive that point home.

In Australia, www.wallallure.com has a nice range of wall stickers, including a Space Invaders sprite set in their Big Kids section (minus the defense shields).
