I don't think many need to be reprinted. Still a bunch available all the time.

How odd. I still get GCU discounts on the amiibo even though that thread said they weren't happening anymore.
Oh Christ, I needed that laugh. I wonder how his lonely existence is treating him now?
I'll probably jump in for just a few more I still want, but it's a shame about the increased price tag. I guess that means they'll be a cool $20 after tax in Canada then? Samus and Pikachu will satisfy me from the old roster, plus I'll want Ridley and Snake.
At least this means Smash Wario and Dedede wont be so fucking rare in the US now right?
I never saw Dedede restocked so i had to import him from australia

No, she's getting one too. It was mentioned at E3 when the Ridley and Inkling amiibo were first unveiled.
Not sure this is really true. I haven't seen much at Walmart but I generally avoid entering their stores. But the recent Odyssey restock was at GameStop and Target as well. When BotW gets restocked, I've also seen them there before they quickly sell out.
Well, yeah. But it's strange that two newcomers are already there but not the third one, instead replaced by wolf
amiibo release in waves we didnt get a full collection of smash 4 amiibo till just last year.
Not true at all. Smash amiibo have largely been gone from retail for quite a while. You'll find a couple specific ones here and there. Best Buy has received very minor restocks but overall, the vast majority are not available at retail anymore.
oh....wolf....
Link and Ganon and maybe Zelda will imo.
It'd be easy money for them.
then again BOTW link already has an amiibo

Really? I got them for $26 total with $1 off each for in-store pickup. Oh yeah, GCU applied too...
The stores around my area don't seem to carry a lot of amiibos. Labo has almost replaced them. Best Buy is the only reliable place I can find hard to get amiibos.
When I enter the checkout, it gives me the option to pick up in store. You'll likely get that too.
Yeah, Labo generally replaced a dedicated amiibo section at most stores. Nintendo seems to be of the mindset of releasing specific amiibo here and there for specific games.
Which, honestly, is basically how it's always been. Smash is the outlier that really is what called for dedicated amiibo displays in stores. Everything else has been a small series that sells out quickly.
Except Animal Crossing. But we don't talk about the only real failure Nintendo made with amiibo.
Man, they could have done something to jazz up Inkling Girl, but you would honestly be better off with just using either of the Splatoon Amiibo figures instead. Ridley is very much a buy, though, and he'll go nicely with the Samus Returns 2-pack.
Oh god, the nightmare for pre-order this things are coming back. Getting all the previous Smash amiibos was soooo stresful.
Yup the Inkling one sucks. I already have the original Splatoon one so this is pretty lame. I wonder why they raised the price by $3. I have the full collection so I will buy all the new ones to complete it but I might wait because the prices have dropped dramatically on amiibo.
I get that Sakurai locked in the project plan a little under 3 years ago, but I'm still sad that it resulted in the absence of any Splatoon 2 content (Li'l Judd aside). This version of Inkling Girl would have been an amazing costume (or even better, it as the default), as would the other Splatoon 2 Inkling variants.The superior version:
Most of the reprints previously dropped their exclusivity if they were previously exclusive, but you did also run into some situations where some reprints wound up being exclusive to certain retailers.
yes
the triangle marker on the tank is in a different place. must buy.

You know, if there's one character I'm interested in seeing how they handle, it's Pokemon Trainer. That's going to be an interesting challenge.
