Hey guys I'm working on a custom amiibo and I also want to make a custom package to go with it, but I need some help getting the full view of the front of this package in particular without the box and amiibo, any help? [t]https://static1.tradoro.pl/2868/amiibo-super-mario-yoshi-01.jpg[/t]
[B][U]AUSTRALIANS: AMIIBO RESTOCK CONFIRMED[/U][/B] [URL="https://twitter.com/NintendoAUNZ/status/605648068818501632"] Look who's returning! Villager, Ness, Little Mac, Captain Falcon… Check with your local retailer for availability![/URL] [t]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CGextJFVAAApwcP.jpg:large[/t] Australia's Amiibo game 2stronk. Will definitely pick up Captain Falcon, not a huge fan of the Cap (have only really played F-Zero X) but it's worth taking the opportunity. Should probably pick up MegaMan while I'm at it too.
so are they brick and mortar only or also online?
I'm already starting to see Amiibos in the used pile with the Disney Infinity and SkyLander figures, granted its only Peach, Mario and Sonic I saw. But keep your eyes peeled for used Amiibos in GameStop.

Guess who got lucky today?: [t]http://i.imgur.com/lr63CZd.jpg[/t]
[t]http://i.imgur.com/CS7biNu.png[/t] Probably doesn't have any weight to it, who knows. Hope it's not true because the exclusive figure bullshit is wearing my patience thin.
I really hate that Target refuses more shelf space for Amiibos. The one shipment only thing is really stupid.
My friend is working on getting me all of the Pokemon amiibo I don't own. Which means he's getting/has gotten me Charizard, Greninja and Jigglypuff. Fuck ye
Apparently counterfeit amiibos are starting to hit the market. [t]https://i.imgur.com/afL9dfG.jpg[/t]
Starting, really? It sure took them a while.
[QUOTE=Merro;47863994]Starting, really? It sure took them a while.[/QUOTE] Making a bootleg amiibo that looks decently close and can still be sold cheaply after material costs is a lot easier said than done.
Do they actually work for the game though, or are they just a figure counterfeit? [editline]3rd June 2015[/editline] Btw since nothing is going on I just want to point out how amazing this custom amiibo is. [img]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CGgYS11VIAEtEdD.jpg[/img]
Good god, why is Nintendo making the Fire Emblem amiibo so god damn rare? The Lucina amiibo are going for like triple the price. I don't think I'll be able to get her at a decent price, why even live.

It's a self-sustaining cycle that made Ike a pain despite having almost identical production numbers to SMB Toad. [editline]2nd June 2015[/editline] The only ones that are actually made in a lower quantity are exclusives, AFAIK.
They had a lot of silver mario at TRU on the first day, but I didn't pick it up. I can't tell if I will be sad that I didn't grab it or if it doesn't really matter at all. Although I've never been a big fan of the spray can gold and silver look.
I just picked it up because it's probaby the closest thing to a metal mario amiibo we'll get
I kinda wanna buy my first Amiibo, but I'm having a strange amount of difficulty finding the Splatoon ones here on the East Coast. Gamestop doesn't seem to list them and other stores seem out. Is this normal?

I keep saying this but try TOYS R US. They seem to have a large amount of everything, also I wouldn't trust the site if it says there are none.

I work at Best Buy, and we ended up getting a surprise shipment of ~16 Meta-Knights today, so I was able to snag 2 of them for friends (already got my own personal one). Granted, everything that was put on display was sold by the end of the night (still got 3 or 4 in the back), but it looks like they're at least resurfacing as a whole, especially since we got that many in Bismarck, North Dakota of all places.

[img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/fzfdFCa.jpg[/img_thumb] Stolen from reddit. Thought it was hilarious. Wish I had Sad Robin. Dude better leave that cased forever. Also; I just love following all the amiibo craze. I guess it's not a wise thing to do considering how many I own.

Might check tomorrow morning at mine just in case.
[QUOTE=Fapplejack;47867293]Know if shipments were nationwide or just to a few like yours? Might check tomorrow morning at mine just in case.[/QUOTE] I was gonna check yesterday, but I didn't have the time. Even then, i'd have only been able to check my district, which is the Minnesota/North Dakota area. I heard rumors like 2 weeks back that they were to be re-released alongside wave 4, so I'm assuming this is going to be a national thing rather than just a few regions. At the same time, national headquarters is in Minneapolis, so we might have only received them since we're in the same district. Never hurts to check if you're near one, or even ask one of the employees, since if the store I work at is anything to go by, the gaming section is extremely neglected, especially Nintendo products, and there was a time where we had 2 or so lone Mega Man's just sitting in the back of the store for like 3 weeks, and I'd honestly be shocked if the ~2 Meta Knights we still have get put on the shelf before next Tuesday, if at all.

[t]http://i.imgur.com/35XDU1M.jpg[/t] Got the only Silver Mario at my closest Gameslop
After a bunch of planning, stress, and waiting, I finally completed my Wave 4 (and extras) hunting expedition. [t]http://i.imgur.com/0bAG7hS.jpg[/t] Hopefully I'll have healed my wallet by September.
Got Ness and Pac Man in today hells to the yes. Now I need to know what's the best method to get an Amiibo out of the box without damaging the box. I want to get ness out without destroying the box like I did Robin and the others. Is there some way of using steam to loosen the seal or something?
I traded an extra Rosalina I had for.... THIS! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3tHPe0E.jpg[/IMG] I am fulfilled. I didn't have to shell out tons of money to a scalper.
