Broke my amiibo cherry today and got a Toon Link. I really like it.
Is this what the kids are calling it these days? Dang youngsters.
Toon Link is cool but a young link amiibo would be amazing , hopefully it will come in a Legend of Zelda series

Buy ALL OF THEM!
I like how there are so many junior members in the thread.
You just made me notice Lucina has a support pillar too.. WHY?! She has two feet firmly planted on the ground and she needs a support pillar? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! Quick someone Photoshop a support pillar as an amiibo!
Edit: Robin doesn't have a support pillar. That's just wrong. Someone go Photoshop a pillar that goes up to his book while you're working on the above request. Don't want that book falling out of his hand or breaking or something >.>
Interesting expression. Either way welcome!

Why are they taking so long for Olimar? He was one of the first announced, I thought he'd come before guys like Ness and Shulk

If I could get more than 1 I'd probably go.
Nope, it's always been there.
Yeah, I'm surprised to see people freaking about Lucina and Charizard's supports. They've been there since the announcement.
At first, I was just going to buy the Fire Emblem Smash Amiibos... Now there's a Kirby Amiibo sitting on top of my Wii U, and I'm admiring how nice the Mega Man one looks... And I don't even have any FE Amiibos yet, lol.
Guys I think I've fallen into the Amiibo trap
I think everyone experiences this. You're just going to get one or two, then by next week you've got five or six while you're waiting on that one you really want.

I think I want the Mario Party Wario more than the Smash one. I like the older Wario look as opposed to what he's wearing in the Smash amiibo.
We're not saying it hasn't been there. We're just saying we just noticed it now and like I said... Wtf is with Lucina's. I don't even understand that one
Smash Wario is probably the only merchandise with Wario in this outfit anyways so I'm glad they went with his Wario Ware look.
Now that you mention it, there are a couple of junior members that I don't recognize here.

April... 24...?Nope, it's always been there.
Trust me, I don't understand it either.
Europe.
Us filthy North Americans don't deserve dates. The scattered release dates across all retailers for several different amiibos is clearly the superior way to release these. Wave 3 was so much fun after all, right?!

April Fools!
And here I'd thought I had missed the announcement.

I think the whole different release days at different retailers for the same Amiibo is f'n bizarre. How Mega Man releases on Feb. 13th at one place then Feb. 20th at another makes no sense. I don't know if that's retailer demands or a Nintendo policy or what.

So I'm thinking 6AM would be good. I know parking isn't free on Saturdays, but doesn't that part of Manhattan have anymore regular free sidewalk parking anymore? I remember I bought Twilight Princess at launch from there and I had parked in a free spot like 4 or 5 blocks away, and it was Black Friday to boot.
Anyways, any people here trying to do a meet up for tomorrow morning?

If anyone can get a Rosalina and ship it to me for 25, you'll make a 6 year old girl very happy.

Wave 3 was way more organized than Wave 2.
Everyone expected all of Wave 2 before Christmas and that wasn't the case.
Wave 3 had a few clear release dates. The only real snafu was Ike and Dedede being delayed until the next week at like the last possible minute.

I never noticed the stand on Lucina, mainly because I'm not interested in the character, but why the hell does she need one? There's nothing about her pose that seems to suggest she needs one. That makes me think of the small purple stand they put on Zelda's foot.
In Europe and Japan, not US

That means we'll get them soon, right? RIGHT?!
Well, I mean, all the other waves had similarish release dates (though dates in general got wonky after the first wave) so there's reason to assume we will, yes.
The odd thing about silver Mario is that there's no certificate of compliance up yet, despite the series launching in two weeks. That would lead me to speculate that he's an exclusive for another region, except the only reason we know of a silver Mario is the image of him inside a US/Canadian box.
You are if it feels right! If you're not having fun, only then are you doing it wrong.
Thanks! Yeah kind of a Night at the Museum kinda thing I guess. Trying to enhance the personality already so well evoked in the detail of these little guys. Lighting goes a long way in that goal too, but my pics don't do Samus or Bowser much justice to how dramatic and genuine the light sources make them look in person. I'll probably install some small "arena-like" ledge in my wall at the top of my bamboo tree and have the Ganondorf amiibo setting there, awaiting a showdown with Toon Link. I have a side table succulent garden that Olimar will be perfect for, especially since Pikmin was partly the inspiration for creating the garden in the first place

You mean the pile of purple poop she stepped in?
Do you have the urge to buy more?
Yeah. I thought it was for her cape at first, but after I opened it and examined it, it's like...why? Did they just have a lot of left over from Fox stands or something and had to find some way of using it?
If you like Mega Man more, then no, you didn't goof. Enjoy your figure.
I still have to get Ness and Game & Watch, but still, wasn't expecting to want something anytime soon after the Smash line.

Splatoon? Suddenly, I'm feeling a bit seasick.
Hopefully this mockup from reddit isn't far off:
But now, instead of wondering about how they pull the base off, this makes we wonder how they will handle the pikmin's stems/leafs/flowers and Olimar's antenna. How thick will they have to go to meet whatever durability standards they decide on?

I need a whole set so I can level them all up to the max
so they can help grind out those timed challenges on Smash 3DS
Nice choice you can save yourself the trauma, it looks likes the Splatoon amiibos will be rare by force.Some People will buy out the supply in the off chance that they become rare.Considering it's a new IP I sincerely doubt that these will be mass produced.

Yeah, I really want Olimar's amiibo. He's one of my favorites to play as and I hope his is good quality. Might even get two if possible.
