I see, well i planned to put him under my Monitor in my office but in this case he well go somewhere else. I guess i could send him back him to Amazon for a refund but the hassle i is more expensive then the value of the figure...

Hey Amiibros!

I've finally launched the amiibo fan-site I've been working on for the last ~month:

http://amiibros.com/

I'm relatively new to web-design and it's still very much a work-in-progress (I'm sure I'll have several things to update after today's Nintendo Direct!), but I've already compiled quite a bit of content about amiibo figures and other Nintendo action figures & toys that I think you'll find interesting.
I'm open to suggestions about improvements and/or future additions for the site so please check it out and let know what you think! :)


On a related note, I tried amiibo-tizing my avatar but I can't get the transparency to work for some reason.
It shows up fine here but when I upload it as an avatar it adds a white background. :S

If anyone would be willing to help me figure out/fix the issue, it'd be much appreciated!! :)
Here's my standard avatar, if needed:

So pumped for tomorrow. I'll see you guys tomorrow to dissues the Nintendo direct. :)

I hope that we are getting news on Amiibo and Amiibo features in any games.

The New 3DS launch means a lot of people who were not interested in collecting amiibos are going to jump on them now.

And yes, there is a LOT of them. Priices for rare may even go up a little bit if there are no restocks soon.

Don't remind me. :(

I got today my first amiibo from Amazon and i am very disappointed, is it normal that amiibo figures look so bad? I am thinking of canceling my Toon Link Preorder.

In my experience every Yoshi looks kinda rough. Yoshi was one of my first and I was disappointed (looks a lot like yours), but I got Diddy and Donkey today and the Amiibos just continue to impress me with their quality.

Got amazon.fr shipping update on Lucario.

"Nous avons reçu de nouvelles informations concernant la date de parution pour cette commande. Nous sommes donc heureux de vous informer que le ou les articles suivants seront expédiés plus tôt que ce qui était prévu."

Looks like he's shipping out soon :)

I got the same email for Rosalina. I'm stoked, even if I can't snag one locally I'll get her eventually from across the ocean, lol.
 
Anyone have a spare Pit? I keep looking to no avail and it's the one I plan on giving my cousin for his birthday early next month. Any ideas? I got him into Kid Icarus on 3DS and he's just recently gotten into amiibos. Thanks in advance, boys!

That might be because it's over the allowed size limit. I had that problem once too - then I reduced the dimensions slightly, and it worked.
 
Went back to my local TRU today to see if I could snatch up the two Marth they had the other day if GAFers wanted to trade for them but they've already been snatched. All there was there was Samus, Peach and Kirby.

I've opened my Marth but he isn't a character I would originally buy. If anyone has a Villager, opened or not I'd be willing to trade my Marth for him.

Finally, Captain Toad amiibo. Seems to be a mode that's similar to the green stars in Super Mario Galaxy.
 
My favorite thing is how amiibo that are retailer exclusive and already long since sold out are going to have extended features in new games! Wait...

I hope that it might be a good sign, with lots being stocked in stores. Except maybe Shulk.

Oh great, now I just imagined the new Fire Emblem making use of Lucina, Robin, & co...

I just mainly want Pac-Man to complete the 3rd party trilogy.

That Codename Steam integration is probably the coolest looking one for Amiibos so far. Definitely going to try and get the full FE cast. Dat Marth reprint though!

Dam, didn't realize the Direct was starting so early and completely missed the section about new amiibo! :(
I came in right in the middle of Xenoblade Chronicles X...which, my god, I NEED now!

I'll be updating the OP when I get home from work.

No Daisy Amiibo is terrible.
Next title is going to be related to that unless they fix that.
