Off topic but I used to think goombas were owls until only somewhat recently.

Don't worry about Charizard, he's well stocked. At worst he'll be Lucario rarity.

Horizon pls
I'm not a huge mario game player. My first one was the first game. Then I only got back in with Galaxy and then 3D World. Until maybe 3D World I always thought they were owls, I didn't know they were supposed to be mushrooms >.>

Has there been any word on if they're releasing a Daisy amiibo for Mario Party? I haven't gotten MP10 yet, but I feel like I gotta get a Daisy one for my mom because she's always played as Daisy in those games for the past 10+ years
I think just Rosalina, Donkey Kong, and Wario so far. Is Daisy playable in MP10?

I haven't really considered that, she's been in every MP since 3... man, if she isn't, Nintendo REALLY hates Daisy then lol
Daisy is in MP10, but there's nothing in game to suggest she has an Amiibo coming. According to in game menus, she's not listed as a compatible amiibo.
Of course, she could always be patched in.
The game's wiki page shows that Nintendo did in fact remember to invite her to the party.

Welp, gonna buy a Gold Mario from a scalper on ebay now. Nobody here wanted to help out an EU amiibro. :/

I feel you. I'm about to do the same.
Diggster, can you elaborate, please?

I haven't heard of a single person in the EU thread owning one. Prices on ebay are around $40 and I have to pay from $12-17 for shipping which obviously sucks.
As a last pledge, as said before, I can throw in a villager, DDD, MK or Shulk + pay something on top if you want. Or just sell me the figure if you do not need anything. I need this to have a complete collection. Damn you Nintendo for not releasing it over here! XD

Amazon prices for Gold Mario are hovering at ~$34, and eBay sold ones are about ~$40. Not quite the $90 people paid on eBay!
Awesome. I guess I can wait it out for a bit longer. Afterall, it hasn't been a week since its release...it could only get lower, as long as I don't wait for too long, right? RIGHT!?
They go lower if they become common or people want to just get rid of them.
They get higher if they are impossible to buy at retail.
Pick your bet.

Depends how desperate poor EU peasants like us become. I will try to dry my tears with my perfect 35/35 EU collection.
It's Still Real To Me Dammit
I am going to PM you in a minute. Maybe we can work a trade out. I hate shipping overseas but if you need one bad let's work something out

After reading about Fox possibly being at Best Buy I stopped by and, sure enough, there he was. Picked him up and now I'm only a few rare amiibos away from having all of the Smash set (just need Ike, Falcon, Pit, and Little Mac).
My wallet is bleeding right now but whatever. He can get over it.

It seems like everyone bought gold mario just to try and scalp lol. The total number of active listings shown when searching for him is in the 1000s compared to the other exclusives like rosalina which is only in 300s.
Rosalina was in the 1000's too when it released, maybe higher if I remember correctly, so there are more Gold Mario's listed right now since it just released and auction are normally a week long.

Hey man, that would be amazing!!! Got your pm
Cool. For some reason the USPS charges a ton of money to ship from the US outside of the country and other countries that I have received packages from seem to have much cheaper shipping costs. Also you never know when things will be held up by customs. That is what I meant when I said I hate shipping overseas. Others probably feel the same.
I can tell you really want one so no need to pay a scalper

Is there any information or rumours even about a Duck Hunt amiibo coming? I'd really love to have that one more than any of the others.

Shipping to the US from here (Germany) is also very expensive, but it does not matter to me. Avoiding a scalper would be really really cool. And if the shipping is too expensive for you, don't hesitate to let me know and I will cover it. In return you'll get a mint and boxed villager.
It will come and it will probably be very hard to find. I know I want one!

I have no doubt about that! I'll do whatever it takes to get my hands on one of those. I hope they're not extremely rare and difficult to find, but something tells me that they will be.

No need to pay anything brother. We will do a 1 for 1 trade. The box for the Gold Mario that I am sending you is in mint shape as well.
Was just giving reasons why you probably had a hard time trying to find someone to trade with.

Yeah, trading with people across the pond is usually not economically sound. But due to the fact that Gold Mario is simply not obtainable here (Besides some idiot listing it for 160 on amazon.de) there is no other option. Made my day!

I stopped at a few places on my way home earlier looking for a Fox or a Dedede (also stopped at Gamestop to see about the MMn3DSXL restock. the guy looked shocked asking WHO TOLD YOU, and then said they'd be getting 2 tomorrow)
didn't see what I wanted but I did see one Toad at TRU. almost bought it but then thought "nah I told myself I'd only buy the Smash ones." got home and had a Gold Mario waiting for me by the door.
these amiibos are making me go god damn nuts.

Never knew that, thanks for sharing that , it appears that wairing inside a train sparks a great deal of creativity
It's a nice story, but the dates don't add up. The Wii U was released in 2012 and the tablet-controller launched having NFC capabilities. Did they just forget they planned to have NFC enabled figures?

I have not been following this amiibo business. Have they announced Falco or Ganondorf yet as upcoming figures?

I see a ton of Sonics and Megamans everywhere. haven't seen a Fox since probably January :\ plus he's not even on Best Buy's website anymore so you can't do the "check availability" thing
