Are you looking for Meta Knight? I have a spare one literally just sitting around I wouldn't mind selling for like 20 bucks or something.

Not that much. im British. the amiibo situation is kind of bare over here, last time i've seen amiibo physically, all they had was Peach and the other commons...now it's a single Diddy on a peg. guess to me; part of what boils down to amiibo is mostly the build/collectibility with the appeal of some characters.
MK and Zelda feels a bit more appeal/build based, whilst Sheik/Robin seems more collectible. probably should take a picture of the whole collection sometime; but cluttered.
[QUOTE=Tall Russian;47989106]Reminds me of how I got my Ike because some people never picked up their pre orders. Amiibo hunts are savage bloodsports.[/QUOTE]
Same thing with me. The grenninja I grabbed was a prereserved copy but the person who did prereserve it hadn't come in yet, even though it was only 2 hours later, so they just let me have it. It is kinda of a low time frame for them to it give up but whatever, I got me a grenninja.
Just bought a sonic amiibo. I think he's my new favorite smash character!

Squad, soon to include Peach, Mega Man, and (hopefully) Rosalina.
eb games australia has the new amiibos up for pre order (g&w, ROB etc)
but they're 25$ now, hoping that's a mistake otherwise i'm probably done buying these dumb things
all the pages say (Placeholder price)
i'm guesing they're all 18 dollars with possible exceptions on non-regular amiibo if that makes sense.
Just pre-ordered R.O.B. from the E.B. games website B)
Aight, the Ness amiibo finally arrived along with a Splatoon 3 pack

Splatoon amiibos have a better paintjob than the Smash amiibos imho

What the ffffuck. Things like these start off wars.

Also I think the Splatoon amiibos look better because there's only 3.

I don't get it how Amiibos got to this point where people go to enormous lengths to destroy/steal stocks of them and end up ruining others fun.
And why would anyone destroy such an adorable fluffy yarn ball of innocence? Even hundreds of them!
It could be what's known to some as "bonfiring", where in an attempt to increase the price of something, a person or group destroys a large number of them to reduce the total amount in existence.
This rarely works however, as it ignores the fundamental balance of supply and demand; if you reduce supply without increasing demand, the value won't change, it will just be harder to find the item for people who want it.

With the amiibo market, however, it might actually work.
so my friend tells me there's insider rumors going around that nintendo is deliberately withholding stock on amiibo and that's why we haven't really seen any kind of improvement despite every excuse falling short? can anyone clarify on this?

Went to my local Wal-mart on a whim before work. Found this lonesome guy under a herd of Pikachu.

It makes sense since Nintendo kept saying at first that it was the retailers fault for not wanting the extra shelf space for Amiibos, which hasn't held up. Don't think there is any evidence for the 'rumour' though.

I heard that's what they did with the Wii, but I don't think there's any confirmation they're doing that with amiibo, more of a "he said, she said" situation between Nintendo and stores.

The only possible hint that this might be true is due to the fact that the Nintendo World Store is somehow magically getting run 1 villagers and merths in still.
It's probably just frustration talking though
now that I've bought one, this is going to be hard to resist buying other ones

Robin and Luigi came today. looking pretty nice. have to say though, Robin's head looks really tiny, but the overcoat is pretty articulated. there's even printings on the book itself.

It gets worse the more you look at it.
I think i'm gonna pass until they eventually fix it.

Pseudo-Palutena's Amiibo is looking pretty good if you ask me.

"Oh Kermie...."
Apparently restocks of certain Amiibos have arrived today here in Germany (Mostly Wii Fit Trainer, Fox and Villager).
Then i saw this little fucker alone in one store.

Btw Tall_Russian if you are still searching for a Villager, I have seen like 18 of them today.
Well I manage to get my hand on the Splatoon 3-Pack, a Greninja and a Jiglypuff when I when to Sydney this lweeked. I'll say, Greninja and the Inkling looks really good.
Hopefully when I get back to Japan, I'll get Ganondorf, Dark Pit, Palutena and Zero Suit Samus since it's already released over there. Kinda wish the Gold Mario wasn't Wal-Mart exclusive.
My older sister gave me some money and a villager amiibo as a graduation present.
I ordered a villager amiibo and it's getting to my house tomorrow :|
make them kiss
