Got my Smash trio plus my P2 Cloud amiibo. Only need the P2 Bayo one now. Got my preorder in for the ones coming in April. These all look so good.

Going to be really hard for them to do an LA amiibo since we have so many Links already. Give me a BowWow amiibo that when scanned let's you take BowWow out for a walk anywhere.

Also how many new FE amiibo are we looking at with Three Houses.

... Well, I was about to say I've given up on getting it any time soon. But then you post this.

Also, I found a bunch of gamestop gift cards that had a few dollars on them each and pre-ordered Ken. So I guess I'm getting him now.

I'll have to locate Wolf and Inkling at some point. While I still love the Smash 4 Amiibo, the quality on the Ultimate ones are really good.

EDIT: I was too late. They don't have it in stock anymore. Damn it.

I probably should get either the Inkling Smash Amiibo or the Mario Smash Amiibo (I never got one) on there, but those probably won't be selling out any time soon. I'll get them another day.

So Best Buy got Charizard, Roy, and P2 Cloud reprints alongside the new ones, right? Did Target or Gamestop (or anyone else) get specific reprints as well? I know I saw Jigglypuff at Target but I think that came with the Wolf/Ridley release.

Yeah, GameStop just got P1 Cloud and Lucina restocks. Not quite sure about Target.

I scooped up the Lucina and Cloud restocks posthaste. Waltzed into GameStop to purchase Mega Man 11, saw them both in front of me, blinked, and added them to my tab in a flash. lol

Our household now has Twilight Princess Link, Ganondorf, Lucina, Cloud, Peach and a custom-painted Kirby. :D

any word on inkling girl smash restocks?

I completely spaced out on that one; I really have bad luck with splatoon amiibos in general.

This last wave of K. Rool, Ice Climbers, and Piranha were my first purchases after my Best Buy GCU expired. It was a good run. RIP, GCU!

Going to pick up a bunch of amiibo today, so far I've been able to grab all the restocks except Rosalina so I'm probably going to have to pay extra for her. Really need them to restock some of the Zelda ones though, some of those are stupid priced online.

I cannot believe I missed out on Piranha Plant. I've managed to be really careful about getting each of the others but I got so busy with work that I forgot to preorder it entirely. Managed to get K. Rool and Ice Climbers, but it's looking like I'm going to have to eBay it if I want a US one. I somehow doubt the stores will get it back in stock.

We're never getting those Amiibos! Been sitting on pre-order since Oct 2017 on Best Buy for me :x
Oh god, we really aren't ever getting these. I wonder what ended up happening with production on them? Surely they actually were preparing them to release last year at some point even without the King of Cards update? Weren't the Shovel Knight amiibos rumored to be produced by the same company that was doing the Disney Infinity figures? Maybe there's something there with production.

Also yay, Best Buy ended up shipping my delayed KRool and Plant amiibo yesterday. Im glad they didn't just get straight up cancelled.

Was Bayonetta P2 ever re-released in the US? Any places still have it or should I just import? Packaging isn't a big deal for me, I'd just like the figure.

Yes, all smash amiibo, including the P2 versions available were released in the US. I'm not sure if they are still available in the US, but I know there are some resellers on Amazon that may have it

Just got a pair of Monster Hunter Amiibo from eBay. Was not aware that the riders are detachable from the dragons. They came bubble wrapped separately from their mounts. Neat....

...please tell me they're supposed to be detachable. I never heard of this. Someone tell me they're supposed to work like this. Please god. I got the Ratholos Boy and Girl riders.

Yes they are detachable. You can mix n match them.

Got all Smash 4 amiibo except for Yoshi and the two cloud amiibo.
So here I am still waiting for a decent print of the two Cloud amiibo in europe:

Not sure if it was ever mentioned here, but Yoshi's Crafted World amiibo support confirmed to give you costumes based on any Yoshi or Mario series characters (excluding Goomba & Boo).

There is something silly about seeing Yoshi wearing a Yarn Yoshi costume.

Footage of amiibo starts at 5:20:



Meanwhile, for Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn, the following amiibo give you these abilities:

- Kirby: Can ravel up big star yarn balls any time
- Dedede: Allows you to throw bombs
- Meta Knight: YOU GET A SWORD
- Waddle Dee: i dunno, a waddle dee hat while having the insta-ravel ability

Finally! It's done. Finished off the collection with Qbby. Nothing but pre-orders from now on! Can't really get a good angle of everything single one so there's a bunch on the upper shelves obscured by other Amiibo. I need a wider shelf or something. Or maybe a step ladder to get a view from the top. In any case, I've spent more money on this then I care to admit. This is easily a couple thousand dollars at least. And there's still more on the way.

Kill me.

So.. Qbby is the only Amiibo I am missing, and with no physical release announced for BoxBoy on Switch I am losing hope we will ever see it here.

It is now being sold at over 300$ on eBay, is there a better way to grab one?

I got mine for $235 if that makes you feel any better. I've seen it go for up to $500 on eBay. I'd say your best best is look for high $100 to low $200 ones on eBay/Amazon (and also hope to find a trusted seller) or just pray for a reprint. Who knows, they might reprint Qbby with that new BoxBoy game coming out... but I'm kind of doubting it.

If you really want to complete your collection, you might have to bite the bullet on this one. Otherwise I'd just let it go... except I clearly didn't.

Finally was able to secure a Wolf amiibo! Had to buy it from eBay, so now just awaiting for it to come in.

Was really skeptical about buying it on eBay, but overall have had a great experience with the seller so far!

Who's excited for some more Japanese-exclusive amiibo cards? The Switch game Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball comes with a first-print bonus amiibo card!

...Oh yeah, and by that I mean there's several amiibo cards that are exclusive to specific Japanese retailers, so you need to also buy copies of the game at those to get them all.

I tossed together a handy guide that I'll figure out how to work into the OT somehow because...whew, good luck buying so many copies of the game if you want to complete that set:

I would like to complete the set, but I do hope they'd push out a single set with crossovers(Love Plus~).

Don't see it happening though, going to be expensive.

Oh shit, this is gonna suck so much for my 100% collection... I have no idea what I'm gonna do. >_<

So, to make sure I'm understanding this right—all first-print copies come with the Power Pro-kun card, while you get a second card, one of five, depending on which retailer you buy the game from, is that correct?

And I don't suppose it's likely that they'll release these separately, ugh... And no localization either... Damn...

So I found out a few days ago that my Lucina amiibo had disappeared and a repurchase has greatly increased in price in the last few weeks it seems.

I'm unsure if I should get her and one of the new releases in a few weeks, or go for the all three new ones and wait with a repurchase of Lucina.

I had a GameStop gift card so I grabbed the Wario Smash Reprint while I could. So I should get him and Ken on the same day.

Have a Target gift card also. Need to see if there's any on the online store I can grab at some point.

YL and Daisy I'll hunt down another time since they aren't a priority for me. Unfortunately, same for the WFT and LM reprints.
