New amiibo line including a Zelda series...

Oh no! A dreaded amiibo thread. I honestly looked to tag this on to another amiibo thread but most of them were locked. New amiibos including SMB, DK, Splatoon, and Zelda. I don't know what to do as I already have way too many of these things and still have some of the DLC Smash characters to get. I'll probably grab Boo but don't have the room to double down on a lot of the ones that will be a duplicates. Zelda series looks pretty slick.

  • I really like the new SMB ones I might have to pick those up.
  • I have all of them preordered (except Zelda which aren't up yet), but getting kind of burnt out on amiibo.



    Zeldas are a must have, along with Boo and Waluigi. The rest I'm not too sure if I really want, or rather if I have the room to display them. I have all of the amiibo currently except for Mega Yarn Yoshi which I don't care to get, the Skylander ones (again, don't care), and then a few Animal Crossing ones I'm waiting to get a price drop (Timmy/Tommy, Lottie, and Isabelle)
  • Waluigi getting some love!

    I've been burnt out on amiibo for a while now. I swore not to buy any more until I find Ness at retail
  • Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of the amiibos, but I might have to get those Zelda ones if only to display, those look really good! I suppose we'll have to wait until they come out to see if they look that good up close, though.

    Are you a NIB collector or loose? There are Japanese ones up on Amazon for 13.52 shipped if you just want the figure, which is about the normal price with tax included.



    EDIT: Nevermind just noticed you're in Canada

    lol yup. I'm not in any rush, I'll find it when I find it. I will grab either loose or in box but will open it if it's in box. I just like them because they're nice little figures of Nintendo characters
  • The new Wario looks so much better than the previous one where he was dressed like a gay motorbiker.

    My girlfriend is losing her shit over those Splatoon amiibos.

    Yeah i'm planning on getting the squid kids, inkling, Diddy/Donkey Kong, Wario, Waluigi, and Boo.



    Now that all the BS has died down around Amiibos, they're a lot more fun to pick up whenever I feel like it.


  • Zelda ones will be the only ones I'll bother with.
  • hyped to see Waluigi finally get his due. day one pickup. i'll also grab Daisy and probably Wario (skipped the biker Wario, but don't know if i can pass him up this time).

    not really a fan of the Zelda ones. still need to grab the Wolf Link one tho.



    was hoping for a Donkey Kong Jr. figure, but i guess it's not to be.
  • I'll be getting the Zelda ones along with Callie/Marie, Boo, Daisy, Waluigi, and possibly Diddy Kong and Rosalina since I don't have their Smash Bros figures. I thought about going for a complete set but I think I'm ok with one of each character especially since I didn't care for the original Mario series, except Toad.
  • I sold most of my amiibo off, but still have all my Zelda related and SMB series. Definitely want to grab the Wolf Link sometime, and the new Breath of the Wild line looks nice. The second series of SMB are also inticing... But I don't want to get too wrapped up in these damned things again. At least stock is easier to come by in stores now, so that's better on the bank. May grab some here and there at Wal-Mart or Toys 'R' Us when I come across them. Glad some additional characters are getting made, and Wario is far better now.
  • I preordered all of these, I have a sickness -_-

    Yeah, I've always prefered the look of "real" Wario over his Wario Ware appearance. Really goes much better with his intended bad Mario identity.
  • Toys R Us Canada has a sale on amiibos starting today... buy two get one free. The coupon is in the flyer available in store. Also, the new SMB ones are out today.
  • Went into my tru today



    Its official the amiibo craze is over lol. In previous releases there was a line out the door. This time i was the only one in the store and waited for them to find them in the back and unbox. My store got 20 of each amiibo fyi so i am sure these guys are going to be readily available.
  • Im going tomorrow with my coupon, so hopefully I can find some good ones.

    They let me use the coupon twice and ring in three at a time (got six). They were also the ones who told me about the coupon... I didn't even know until the cashier told me. Great crew at my local TRU. 



    And, yes, the craze is definitely over. I saw one other guy there that collects amiibo when there was at least 30+ people at some of the Smash releases. The only reason he was there was because Walmart didn't get Diddy or Donkey Kong for some reason. 



    Also, these amiibos look way better than the Smash series. The quality and production is much better in my opinion. Just waiting on the final 3 Smash characters now and might pick up the Wind Waker double pack when released. 
  • Both TRU and BestBuy by me had full tables of all seven (I think that is how many came out) when I went there tonight. Hype has died off to almost non-existent.
  • The re-re-re-releases killed the market for speculation. People dont need to pay a higher price for something when theres a good chance it gets reprinted.
  • I went to TRU this morning, got Boo, Wario, and Waluigi. They had tons of each. They also had re-releases of Palutena (a TON of her), Mega Man, Ness, Pit. I saw a kid at the checkout with a gold Mario, so I must have just missed out on that, but i'll just get the next re-release of it, heh. There was lots of kids either in line, or just looking at the Amiibos, so that 3 for 2 coupon seemed to be quite popular.
  • went to my local Best Buy, Target, and Wal-Mart on Friday a bit after noon. None of them had any of the new amiibos out. They hadn't sold out of them, they just hadn't bothered to stock them on the shelves yet. this fuckin' town....
  • Got all of the new ones yesterday, they even stock them in the tiny "town" I'm working in. The set is full and complete once again.

    My local Walmart has Ness available for $15.99 CDN. I'll grab one for you if you like.

     
  • Looks like there are four mystery amiibo that were discovered on some sort of Nintendo upcoming release form/data. Hopefully it's finally the three remaining amiibo for Smash. Maybe a new character? I would suspect a Smash Switch announcement soon as well.
  • Yeah that CPSIA info is a few months old, not sure why outlets are reporting on it now. All of the CPSIA codes correspond to Smash line Amiibos. Three were confirmed to be the three unreleased Smash ones (Bayonetta, Cloud, Corrin) and the last one is an unconfirmed Smash one. Probably Ice Climbers since they had them in Smash for Wii U, but had to cut him since the 3DS version couldn't handle him in 8-player mode. If they're adding a character for the remaster and making an Amiibo for it, Ice Climbers would make the most sense
  • I'll be curious if they reprint some of the amiibo when Smash launches on Switch, especially all of the Zelda amiibo that are currently going NUTS on eBay. I cashed in after I got all of the outfits and weapons unlocked. Sold all of the Zelda Smash amiibo + the 30th anniversary Windwaker 2 pack for $290, all open box. That is insane. I kept the 30th OoT, NES, and wolf amiibos, the rest I could easily part with.
