[Amiibo] Chasing the Plastic Unicorn
Posts
I'm already at that point. I want them, but fuck all this nonsense.
Gaming is supposed to be fun. Nothing about this is fun.
So here are my extras (minus the Ike, I believe). I'll post later bout giving them to you guys so everyone gets a fair shake. Only thing I would ask would be $13.74 (12.99 + tax) and shipping which is usually 3-5 bucks.
both of those two were only really rare because of the port strike, and are slowly making their way to stores
like, they're both back in the $24 range on amazon right now
I would not count on the prices going anywhere but down
If the store Taramoor went to has already sold that last Mega Man Amiibo, can buy yours and Toon Link?

Of course, with the Nintendo stuff lately? Man, I have no clue what's up there.
Amiibo have street dates, btw, but not all of them. Shiek arrived the same time as toon link & rosalina (a week early) but wasn't Street dated in the system, so if someone asked we had to sell it to em
It was most certainly gone.
Currently missing from my collection:
Pit, Dedede, Metaknight, Lucario.
Can't decide if I should make Pit or MK a higher priority.

Well I got one for Ike, one for Dedede, and one for T. Link/Mega Man ( @RockinX if you still want them). Anyone for Sonic?
Now my warning is I have spring break starting Thursday so I can definitely try to get them out before hand, but no promises!
e: And just like the Gold Marios, Sonic is .... gone

Yes, please. I still desire those Amiibos.
Look at me, now I'm falling for Nintendo's strategy because I don't already have Toon Link and Mega Man figures. Now the question is whether to open them or not when they arrive... Who am I kidding, I'm totally opening them.
Take a good look. You will never see it in person.
On the plus side, my Gamestop is accepting pre-pre-orders for the next wave.
You can't pre-order, but you can put your name on a list and they'll call you when they start taking pre-orders in store.

I don't live in the US I most certainly wish I did. Tim Fiji is hooking me up with one, so it's all good.
Still can't believe that it's been almost 6 weeks since the wave 4 announcement, and pre orders STILL aren't available.

Also, they managed to forget and put my Megaman on the shelf -- fortunately it was still there when I got it, but if I was the type to keep it in the box I'd be pissed it had the sticker on it.
If their system works the way it has the last two go-rounds, I expect to get my text notification that my amiibos came in on Thursday. Gawd, I hope the Amazon alerts I set up work.
But I know I'll want Toad. And I should probably buy Mario because I have everyone else from the Mushroom Kingdom.
But thats it! No more amiibo.
Unless they make Waluigi.
Or they do a Zelda line with a different look from the Smash Zelda characters.
Damn it Nintendo, you could get so much of my money if you just made these things easy to buy.
I'm going to lay down the law on all your asses- Nintendo is introducing probably the greatest use of amiibos YET (maybe the best integration possible?) into Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
If you tap any amiibo into the game, you get an additional 1-up
I bet you all feel pretty stupid now
Also I'm guessing Ness will end up unicorn tears rare like many of the others? I should stop paying attention to amiibos...
I just want my toys Nintendo! Is that too much to ask?

I'll probably stick with the Smash line (assuming it continues), since there's no way I can pass up Smash-style Ganondorf and Bowser Jr. But yeah, I might be done after that, especially if the Mario line is an indication of the quality going forward.
They're kind of married to using the Smash Bros poses. And like it or lump it, that's his pose in the game.
On the other hand, Toad is great and I have him preordered, and I actually prefer the Yoshi and Peach of the Mario line even with the lesser detail. :P

I'd love a Duck Hunt amiibo, but I have no idea how they'll do his official Smash pose without having it mostly encased in plastic.
Here's a mockup
