Wow! I'm really jealous of these collections. I had intended to start accruing a collection of Amiibo (Amiibos? Legos?) and Disney Infinity Marvel figures, but moving house stripped me of the cash and space to do so. Seeing how scarce some of these are now, I'm kinda glad I didn't. That way at least I'm not tempted to pay silly money for the OOP figures.

Looking forward to seeing how Nintendo uses these in the future, but I'd have been happy just with well-made statuettes of some of the most loved characters in games (and comics for the Marvel ones, obviously).

They are very nice quality indeed. Probably won't pick up Smash Bros any time soon. But these look great on my action figure shelf.
Oh Princess Zelda, stop looking at me. I've spent enough now. Really.

Des I just had a look in my local Game. Not only is it jammed,they had no Amiibos in. So after that experience I put Zelda on my credit card for £13.

I managed to acquire a Marth for £14. Not a bad price and goes against my "no more than RRP" policy but P&P got me!

Just Little Mac left for this run. New wave coming on the 23rd of this month!

I have Luigi and Peach, my brother got me them for Christmas, and he got Zelda. I have been thinking about pre-ordering King DDD.
The only ones that I know I will get are R.O.B. and Game&Watch when they are announced.

I am interested if they might start making pokemon amiibos. I would love to get a Kabuto figure.

Pikachu is out, and he's ace.I believe an upcoming one, Lucario is a Pokemon? I'm not sure, I'm no expert in the series to be honest.
Got Captain Falcon and Luigi on the way now.

I'm not entirely sure of these "Super Mario themed" amiibo's. Seems a bit pointless to me but man, Wave 4 looks incredible!

I may have to get Pac-Man. as for the mario themed ones, I'm not too interested, but I am glad that they are quickly moving away from only smash characters.

Pac-Man is a must, so is Toad. Not interested in buying variants of characters I already own (Mario,Luigi,Peach).

Very nice collection, dez. Those all look really nice. I'd like to pick up a set of these, but I don't have the money for such things at the moment. Some day.

I've got Ike and Bowser. Really think Bowser is the best of the lot so far, brilliant detail. Got Toad and Luigi pre-ordered from the Mario Party range.

Reports of the most recent Amiibo's selling incredibly well. Are people jumping on the potential scalping bandwagon now? It'll only be for so long until the bubble pops.
