Boo feels like the odd one out in the Mario set. He's the only enemy there. Would've made sense to include him in a future wave with Goomba, Koopa Troopa, Shy Guy etc.

Boo is one of the most popular Mario enemies, though, especially when it comes to being playable (I think Dry Bones and Shy Guy are the only ones more popular in that regard). Plus, they have a hook with Boo, making it glow in the dark. I don't know what they could have done with a Goomba that would've made it special outside of being a Goomba.

Looking for Best Buy links Diggeh because I don't have Amazon prime. Also went ahead and preorder Callie and Marie because I forgot they were suppose to come out soon. You have the best front page to keep up to date on amiibo.

Craaaaaaap, I forgot to pre-order Wario from Amazon. Oh well, least I remembered to add Daisy to my pre-order of Waluigi & Boo.

Hopefully this time, I can actually nab Wario in time & not have to resort to importing. I would like to have classic Wario to go along with WarioWare clothed Wario.
 
So the Guardian is definitely getting premium pricing, right? Probably anywhere from $17-$20 methinks.

No new Princess Zelda or Green Tunic amiibo for Breath of the Wild?

*suspicions mount*

IIRC they explicitly said these are the first Zelda amiibo.

Wave 2 confirmed. :p Hell, maybe even more for wave 1 confirmed. Link's still one of the, if not the, all-time best seller, right?

Kissed a mod for a tag; liked it
Oh boy new Zelda amiibo!

Restricted myself yesterday, my local EB had some amiibo half price and all I got was Charizard. Nearly got pacman too but the box was damaged.

Just wait till wave 3...

Notice how Bowser Jr. isn't getting another amiibo yet he's also playable in the new Mario Party game?

I would lose my shit for Koopa Troopa and Goomba Amiibos. (Shy Guy not so much.)

For some reason, I've always liked the enemies more than the heroes in the Mario series.

Yeah, I feel like the Super Mario series is something they can always continue as they constantly have new Mario games in development. I think Bowser Jr. would have made more sense than Boo right now, given the rest of the wave, but I could see them thinking they'd rather have a brand new character right now instead of someone who's already in Smash. That makes sense as well.

I am so freaking pumped about Daisy getting an Amiibo finally. Hopefully somewhere down the line we can get a sports variant too.

Looks like I'm up to 26 Amiibo to get although I'll probably end up getting more than that since all the animal crossing ones are so cheap.
