The 'AA' Thread: Amiibo Anonymous

[dezm0nd]

We don't judge here. We're just here to help*

Anyone else got any Amiibo figures? I'm struggling to see their purpose just yet but that hasn't stopped me from buying almost every single one...!

I tried to resist. I got 3 for Christmas. The rest is self explanatory.
*Help find them all

[Flabyo]

I bought the Princess Zelda one.

I still have no idea why.

(She's much better than I am at Smash already though)

[Cass]

It took roughly 2 hours for my Peach amiibo to reach sentience and begin stomping me. I'm not quite sure how.

[AndyKurosaki]

Hello, I'm Andy Kurosaki, and I'm an amiibo-holic.
I don't own Smash Bros. Don't plan on buying it any time soon. Yet I'm buying loads of these
I love action figures. And at £10 each, these look seriously nice.
I started with Mario and Samus.Once they arrived, and I liked the quality of them, I got Link too. This morning, I've ordered 4 on Amazon. Not one, not two, but bloody 4. Donkey and Diddy Kong. Then Pikachu. And seeing Fox drop from £15 to £10, I ordered him too.

I draw the line at buying ones I'm not that familiar with though, such as Marth and Villager. For now, I think I'm done. But I already like the look of Bowser and Mega Man...

[dezm0nd]

Probably like most of us obsessed with the idea of collecting these pieces of plastic, I am in need of Marth and Little Mac.

If anyone see's them... let me know! I don't want to pay any more than the RRP. I'm not that obsessed (yet)

[AndyKurosaki]

Yeah I see those two going for silly money online. Marth on amazon is £15, but postage is £9. Fuck off. Little Mac is £30+.Again, fuck off.

[AndyKurosaki]

Little Mac is £20 on Amazon. Probably not for long though.
Just ordered Princess Peach. Help!

[dezm0nd]

Yeah he's shot up in price again. So ridiculous.

[AndyKurosaki]

Really? That sucks. I'm guessing him and Marth are quite rare then.

[dezm0nd]

Apparently Marth can be found in-stores easier than Little Mac but yeah, both seem to be the tough ones to get hold of more than others.

[AndyKurosaki]

Well, I'll keep an eye out mate. If need be I can always grab Mac if I see a cheap one then send it your way.

[dezm0nd]

That's very much appreciated! Should a particular amiibo you're after is around my way, i'll return the favour.

[AndyKurosaki]

Awesome, sufferers unite! Think at the moment the only ones I want are Yoshi and Captain Falcon. Glad I got Fox for £10 on Amazon now, he's at least £17 again.

[dezm0nd]

Picked up and got delivered my order of Amiibo's today.



I had already bought Wii Fit Trainer, Villager and Kirby before Christmas. I received Fox, Donkey Kong and Samus on Xmas day and the rest are todays "Sod it, let's just buy them all" on Boxing day.

There's a Yoshi in the Argos here, if you cant get hold of and want it, let me know!

[AndyKurosaki]

Wow, that's a bloody nice display that. Very much impressed mate. Yoshi is only £10 on amazon, so it's not that I can't get him. Just think I've spent enough for now, haha

[dezm0nd]

Little Mac has seen a reprint in America so here's hoping it brings the prices down overall. Good to see them getting replenished into stores again.

[Flabyo]

The only other one I want is Rosalina, but she's not available yet...

[AndyKurosaki]

For the next run I definitely want Bowser and Mega Man. Bowser especially looks awesome.
Though now Princess Zelda is looking tempting.
Bet anyone that pays £35+ for Little Mac will feel a right twat if the reprint makes him cheaper. Will grab one myself if that's the case...

[dezm0nd]

Is there anywhere other than game in which you can pre-order these bastards? It's like real life pokemon apart from I'm buying to have them all, not adventuring.

[AndyKurosaki]

A week or so ago you could pre-order on Amazon. Definitely can't now though. I've looked
