The first appearance of a Samus Doll was in the Nintendo Power comic Mario vs. Wario/ (January 1994, No. 56), where it is a chibi doll. Peach sees it in a toy store window and calls it cute. With her birthday coming up, Mario and Wario both scheme to gift the doll to the princess; using trickery to get ahead of one another. However, unbeknownst to them, Luigi buys the doll first. Their devices against one another backfire, almost ruining the princess's birthday. Luigi saves the day by presenting the Samus Doll to Peach, who exclaims that it was exactly what she wanted and gives Luigi a kiss on the cheek.
