I got my new three today. I nearly cancelled but I'm glad I didn't, they are awesome, as always. No regrets about not getting the Miis.

Oh and I got a free Mario 30 pin badge which is nice!

EGX most likely.

Which would mean going to Birmingham.

Nothing is worth going to Birmingham for.

I've lost track of which of the Fire Emblem amiibo are rare, but my local Argos seems to have Shulk in too. I think he's a rare? Also has Villager and Dedede.

Hopefully they'll have Duck Hunt for me when I go tomorrow.

The Meta Knight I had on order at Argos looked awful, two huge scratches on his wings and lots of black marks on his face, so I decided against getting him.

Picked up a Duck Hunt in Grainger Games at least.

They all tend to have the black marks on the face, right?

The one I had hold of today was a lot worse than your two, it had two, really large black smudges.

Anyway, speaking of Argos I noticed whilst I was in there that they'll be selling the Animal Crossing cards for £3.99 a pack, not 20 quid as they originally listed lol.

Basically double the price for AC cards here, plus we get stuck with more "special" dupes than our US cousins. Nope, fuck that, can't support this.

Duck Hunt and Game and Watch!

Now, I'm just wondering how many more from the Smash line I want. Lucas definitely, and then after that maybe only Olimar.

I picked up Duck Hunt and Mr. Game & Watch today. They had R.O.B. as well, but I'm hoping to get the Japanese one instead.

Other than the "never remove packaging" weirdos, what pose are you using for Mr Game and Watch? I'm liking the bell taunt pose. I'm also trying to work out what to do the spare poses.

Currently bell. Judgement is a little small.

Thanks to the bell pose G&W is the only Amiibo to support his Brawl pose as well as Smash 4 one.

Anywhere I can get Rob, Duck Hunt Duo, Game and Watch or the Mii for the same price as Nintendo had them, or any idea when they will go back in stock at Nintendo?

I once had a dream that we'd be able to walk into a store and buy the latest amiibo, without preordering, for no more than £10.99.

Today that dream came true as I picked up ROB, Duck Hunt Duo and Mr Game & Watch. Thank you Argos!

Socialist paradise, my friend. Those yanks don't know what they're missing.

It's official!

I have no room at all left on my shelves for any more Amibos, Mrs Sector Clear is getting rather fed-up with them as well...

more animal crossing amiibo have been announced, and with that i'm out, Nintendo went full on overkill with Amiibo and I no longer care

Why? You don't have to get them. This is like complaining Nintendo is making too many games because you've had this crazy notion you must get them all. Honestly, it's just silly.

Just get the characters you like and forget the rest. There is no need for this in out shake it all about business.

That's what I'm doing. Don't even have all the Smash amiibo and it doesn't bother me. Just characters I like.

Granted, I like most characters, but still.

I have no intention of getting any Animal Crossing ones...


...except maybe KK

At the moment - nothing, they are just sitting in the boxes lonely and forgotten :(
But honestly not sure what to do with them, I guess I could just put them around the place as some sort of decoration or something as there's no point re-selling them really, doubt anyone would want just the poses :L
