Did anyone pick up the new Monster Hunter Amiibo? I had no idea they even existed until a few hours ago. No clue there was a second wave of Monster Hunter Stories Amiibo.

I grabbed them from my local GEO. They're again really great quality like the first wave, though I'm less a fan of the monster designs. Riders are also switchable like the first wave.

Picked up Picross 3D Round 2 on a whim, didn't even know it had amiibo support, but there it is! Turns out I have every supported amiibo except Bowser and Peach. I guess that's a good enough excuse to pick them up, it seems that the Super Mario first wave gets put to good use in almost every game with amiibo.

GameXplain released a video showing all 24 costumes you can unlock via amiibo in Miitopia. What's cool is certain ones like Yoshi & Inkling Girl have multiple colors.

Yet another reason to regret missing Sheik and getting regular Zelda instead.

Those Animal Crossing ones are a tad creepy.

I've fallen behind, haven't really been in the Amiibo hunting game for months. I'm just grabbing some here and there as I find them.

Went to a TRU the other day, and saw bunches of Gold Marios. Glad to see that's normal these days. They had Pit and Palutena too, but I couldn't remember at the time if I needed those two or not. Picked up Gold Mario and Boo though.

I'm not too far from being caught up. Need 3 of the Kirby ones, and just a few of the Smash/Mario Party/Animal Crossing amiibo. Hopefully I'll be able to clean up the loose ends after the holidays.

Also wanted to mention, I really like the new Zelda ones. Very nice.

Have those Monster Hunter amiibo been released worldwide? Or is it only in Japan?
 
I recently added a couple Pokemon Amiibo to my collection. I hardly buy these anymore. Not sure what to add to my middle shelf. And I still haven't opened my Rosalina amiibo for some reason lol...

On mobile, so can't link, but Best Buy has the standalone Poochy amiibo available for pre-order. They also have the bundle (so does Amazon). I didn't even know there was going to be a standalone Poochy at launch.

I don't know if this has already been answered, but is OoT Link treated as normal Link as far as game functionality goes? I don't want to cut it open if it's treated as normal Smash Bros Link.

What else would there be?

It is. I thought he might count as Young Link, but no. And oddly enough the WW Zelda is treated as normal Zelda.

Why would you expect anything else?
If there was an indeterminate case, it'd be WW Link, but that one works as you'd expect.

Is there a new amiibo OT? I want to ask you guys about Japan-exclusive amiibos, which ones are there? Just the two MonHun Stories ones?
 
The fam got me Meta Knight, Kirby, Wario and WAHLUIGI for Christmas! Kind of excited, I've been lax with some of these newer ones because I figured they'd be on sale and it's nice to get some new Amiibo.

I spotted a Mega Man Collection at Target the other day on sale for 50% off (I think it was around $25 or so?) I dunno if they're clearancing them or not or if it was just that one because the cellophane was ripped.

On mobile and for some reason the compatibility chart is giving me a 403 error.

Can you use either rosalina amiibo for the same games? Since I got my daughter a Wii U and Mario party 10 for xmas she's obsessed with her lol and I think the one with Luma is better.

Functionally they're identical, yes.

I believe that's essentially true for all amiibo of the same character. Any game that supports one version of a character should support them all, though some cases will have added/alternate functionality for different versions.
 
Question for you fine Amiibo collecting folks:

Outside of the Animal Crossing Amiibo, which figures are compatible with New Leaf?

Based on the official site, it appears all the Zelda & Splatoon related amiibo work with New Leaf.
 
Guys do any of you use 3-leveled steps or risers for displaying your amiibos? I'm looking to get some maybe off amazon, but not sure which ones would have a generally good level of height between each step for most amiibos.

I do. It's small, it only holds about 18 figures. It's supposed to be a spice rack. It's white with gray rubber on top. It was bought from a department store or something, I forget where.


Amiibo sale at Best Buy this week. Decent selection, including the Animal Crossing and Splatoon 3-packs.

Not the alternate paint job Splatoon three-pack, though =\

I use the same. Spray painted mine black. I'll post a pic in a few since I have bought a few Amiibo since the last time I shared (and moved houses).


Pretty much out of room, and I'll want Cloud and some of the BOTW ones. I'll probably just move some bigger ones like the Yarn Yoshis to my TV stand or bookshelf I guess.

That's exactly it!! Wow.

No wow needed, it's been posted in Amiibo OTs a few time which is how I learned of it. :D

It's a common brand so you can find them at Target, Bed Bath and Beyond etc. as well.

That looks pretty good. A much nicer setup than what I've got.

It appears the Wolf Link amiibo will finally be sold by itself, as it's been verified in Target's system for $15.99, & CPSIA certified 3 more just a few days ago, which I'm guessing are Corrin, Cloud, & Bayonetta.
