    I like Inkling Boy's headband. It's way more detailed than it needed to be.

    So this guy is doing a gallery of all the amiibo patterns from Yoshi's Wooly World, and some of them are adorable.
    The Rosalina pattern puts a luma on the saddle. Squee!

    Edit: Wave 4 video added.

    Gotta admit, what they did for the Yoshi amiibo was pretty clever.

    So I'm considering going to be ordering some customs, but I'm hesitant to spend money on things that might see official versions down the road anyway. What do you think the chances are that Captain Toad gets an amiibo? I can definitely forsee Nintendo carrying the character and gameplay forward, maybe in a 3DS puzzler or something rather than a full console game again.

    Also probably getting Outset Link with a pig, because have you seen this it is so good.

    https://www.etsy.com/listing/224683568/outset-island-custom-toon-link-amiibo?ref=related-4

    This etsy seller is the most appealing place I've seen. I've happened across a few cheaper miib customs creators out there but none at this quality level. Any suggestions?

    I have to say I hate the finish on most customs. The texture is so ugly in most cases.

    I went abit crazy this weekend and got a Kirby, PacMan, and Toon Link. Also a MegaMan for a friend of mine since I found 5 of them in a WalMart and I already have one.

    Main one I want now is a Bowser Jr! Oh and a Villager if they are ever available again...

    It looks like Gamestop is doing a restock on Dedede and Ness. https://www.reddit.com/r/amiibo/comments/3bwacb/gamestop_restock_ness_dedede/

    I don't know if canadians can get in on it, but if you guys ever happen on an extra Dedede, that would be insane.

    So I'm trying to get some floating shelves to display my Amiibo -- but I'm having a hard time finding something both long (42 inches or so) and relatively shallow. Anyone got any suggestions?

    I've been using the Threshold shelves from Target. They have a variety of lengths, but I don't think there's anything all the way to 42 inches. However, they are the perfect depth for amiibo and they look great up on my wall.

    And they do look great! But my wife is anti-clutter, and is hoping for longer, unbroken lines. Dernit.

      It's pretty tough to see (heh) without a magnifying glass or something, but I don't think so.

        It does, but you need 4 figures using each of the 4 poses.

            I got my Villager reprint from Best Buy today. I have a European one in-box and I'd like to open one but I can't decide which to open. The reprint looks bettr IMO but maybe I should keep the first print one in box?

            Actually, out of the current ones, the only ones I really want but am still missing is Charizard, Greninja, and Wario. They are nowhere to be found in my area ever. Maximumzero is hooking me up with a Silver Mario, so that is awesome.

            I have given up hope of ever getting any Fire Emblem ones, which is sad, because I only want Lucina and Ike. I don't care about getting Robin or Marth.

            The upcoming ones I'm hoping to grab are Zero Suit Samus, Olimar, Mr. Game & Watch, ROB, Duck Hunt, and Bowser Jr. I skipped all the Kid Icarus ones because I don't really care about owning any of them. Funny enough I don't own any Zelda ones either except for Toon Link. I also skipped the Mario series except for Toad.

              Do you really need each pose on an amiibo base? Why not just create a custom display for him so you can make it look like he's moving through his poses.

              You don't even need to be creative. You could probably wait 24 hours and copy someone's design.

              The amazing part of this is that it's not going to be a GameStop exclusive accessory that they stop stocking entirely after a month.
