Got the squishy Metroid amiibo. Bigger than I expected. Love it.

Didn't pick up the Samus amiibo. Don't care for the in-game unlock and like the Smash Samus amiibo something feels off about it to me. Too small. I just don't think the design scales to small sizes that well. The Figma looks great, and I think it helps that it's a little less busy.

Is there an amiibo checklist with images?
My friends always ask who I do and don't have so I wanna just have a quick image resource they could use

y u do dis Jaw

I use MFC to track my amiibo, but I don't think there's a maintained checklist similar to the OT. I guess you could just put a bunch of squares in the OT. :p

I honestly can not believe that the Bokoblin is so hard to find now, I held off on him for awhile cause no one was buying him.

Only one I'm missing from the set :(

Yeah, I find that if you don't preorder the obviously popular ones, they are all gone day 1.

I preordered my Metroid ones via JB a while back, but it hasn't shipped yet, whereas I have got the game already. And unless there is a delay I don't know about, I'm thinking they are gonna cancel it due to supply. Will be gutted if that's the case.

Recently we got a dog, and my fiancee got home yesterday and saw my Marth amiibo on her bed...the sword was broken off. I was pretty pissed about it, but my fiancee is awesome and offered to buy me a new one, even though she totally didn't have to do that.

Needless to say, i moved my amiibo shelf into the office that we have gated off from the dog now.

You should thank that dog, it's helping you child (and maybe even burgle) proof your home. Also that Marth isnt' $50+ anymore.

I hope you get them! Otherwise I would try Target, they had them in stock for awhile. I believe Gamestop had them in stock for a bit earlier today too.

Oh, it is. Huh. Every store I went to had pegs of them just a month ago, but looking now they're OOS everywhere. Not a GameStop, Walmart, or Target within 25 miles with any showing.

Would have offered to buy and ship at cost otherwise. But amiibo don't permit such a thing, as always. :L

Ordered three of the Momster Hunter Stories Amiibos since I guess they’re never coming out in the U.S. Really like them and didn’t realize how late they were or that you can pull the rider off. Will order the other three soon. Was looking at that Box Boy one and not sure I want to pay $40 for it.

Was hoping Nintendo would sell the Monster Hunter Stories amiibo on their official website, no way in hell I am paying the equivalent of $20 each (with shipping) to import them. <_<;

I missed that Play-Asia deal, so mad.

I should have jumped on that Play-Asia deal... don't know why I hesitated
would that have worked out to $13 per MonHun Stories amiibo?

I'm still waiting to get single pack versions of
Metriod
Samus
Wind Waker Link
Wind Waker Zelda

and a few others FE ones :/

They have em for about $16 each (with shipping) direct from Japan on Ebay, I am tempted but :/

Best Buy used a damned bag! >_<

Off-Topic: Amazon

Used a flap box and probably wasn't strong enough to withstand the weight, thus the top of this DVD case popping.

Not a good day for delivery.

Amazon has easily become the worst fucking retailer for amiibo. Can’t even get the shit out on for order before release or on release day.

My last resort is always Gamestop. Worst shipping and the site always goes down or sells out. Amazon at least gives me free shipping.
