| Subject: amiibo! Sun 1 Nov - 16:20 | |
| Anyone here collect amiibo? It's been almost a year since the first wave of amiibo released back in November of 2014. At first I was only going to buy just a few (Sonic, Peach, Yoshi, etc.) but then I got a Pokemon vibe and knew I had to get them all! Now I have around 50 amiibo, they're taking over my shelf in my room!
amiibo are a pretty big deal here, they sell much better here when compared to Europe and Japan. We used to have huge scalper issues over the rarer ones but with the more recent waves it's been easier to get them in store and not online. I do not regret buying Lucina online though for a bit of money.
If anyone wants me to list what amiibo I have or show a picture of all of them then I can. Mii Fighters came out today here in the US, might go buy them later. |

| I'm a bit ashamed but yes I do collect them. To be honest I have them all, except the gold Mario as he never came out in Europe... Same goes for the Silver Mario but a friend from Canada got it for me I got Mewtwo a few days ago and now I am waiting for Falco. I even have the 2 versions of the pixels Mario. I'm an awful Nintendo collector, even if I don't use them a lot I find them very pretty to just look at! It was very very hard to collect them at the beginning, but since Nintendo restocked them, they are all everywhere even the rare ones, which made me sad in a way because I used to pay them a fortune on the internet... if only I knew they would be restocked |

| Don't be ashamed. XD I have most of them, but not all of them. I have 40 from the Super Smash Bros set, can't wait for Mewtwo to come out in a couple of weeks here. I don't have 8-bit Mario yet, I have not seen it at all in stores yet. There was a big restock recently for Fox, Captain Falcon, Lucario, Greninja, Little Mac, and Shulk recently. I already had Fox, Captain Falcon, and Greninja though but I got Lucario, Little Mac, and Shulk through the restock. Gold Mario is a pain to get, a Walmart exclusive and Walmart barely has any amiibo.
The most I payed for one was around $50. It was Lucina. She's one of my favorites and I knew she would be very hard to find (have not seen in any stores) so I just bought her online. |

| Lucina was okay to get here, I even have a spare one that I try to sell T_T
The one I had to pay a fortune were Shulk and Meta Knight. But they have been restocked then and I was so pissed XD
I hope we get a Toadette and Daisy Amiibo for the Tennis game :3 I was hoping a Daisy for Mario Party 10 but no... |

| Lucina is very rare here, doesn't help that we all love her. I don't have Meta Knight, but he did have a restock a few months back. He's exclusive to Best Buy and I don't think I have a Best Buy around me. (Toys R Us, Target, GameStop, and Walmart are all very close to my house) Exclusives are another pain about the amiibo in the US. Although Lucario, Greninja, and Shulk are no longer exclusives.
I'd buy 2 of Daisy, I'd love to keep one in its box and use the other one. Plus my Peach from the Mario amiibo set is lonely without a Daisy amiibo being the only girl in the SMB set. |

| I'm glad here in France there is no exclusive shop! You can get them in any supermarket or video game seller. Just have to be quick because for the rare ones, they get like 3 or 4 max per shop! It had changed a bit for the last series though. It's more like 8 per shop for the very rares. Ganondorf is absolutely everywhere xD !!! |

| Lucky you! XD But I hope Lucario/Greninja/Shulk no longer being exclusives means this will happen to the rest, but the Animal Crossing Festival series (which I'm not really interested in) is already going to have exclusives. I've seen pictures of amiibo in European shops, it's so different compared to US and Canada, we have Mario, Luigi, Peach, Zelda, and Pikachu everywhere. I see Ganondorf quite a bit too, I imported mine from Japan back in June (along with Palutena) because I really wanted him but he didn't come out here in the US until September... It is great to know that there's someone else here who collects amiibo besides me. amiibo buddies! :3 |
