[Tempius]

Sweet, got Ridley, thanks!

 

[wratih9]

Ridley Amiibo up for Pre-Order @ Bestbuy

Inkling Girl Amiibo up for Pre-Order @ Bestbuy

Wolf Amiibo releases December 7th along with Ridley & Inkling Girl

Thanks! I got Ridley and the Inkling Girl. Ridley was the one I was stressing about but with both of them I'm happy.

 

[Tothoro]

Also in for a Ridley. Looks like Wolf will be released on the same day (source below), so it should go up at any time.

[abbabaab]

Alas, gone are the days of new amiibo for $13 before discounts.

Got a Ridley order in, regardless.

 

[soonersfan60]

No link for Wolf? Well, at least I got the other 2 pre-ordered. How many new Smash ones will there be?

True but still better than a scalper or having to import (I had to do that on 2 of the zelda ones).

 

[ElvisTheGreat]

Been waiting for these for awhile. Got my order in. Wolf looks really cool

 

[tylerh1701]

$16 for a normal smash amiibo? Jeez...

Trade Wars? Lol

[z3razerviper]

Thank you preorded the first two. Any idea when wolf will go live?

No

 

[z3razerviper]

No

Cool thank you.

 

[dgwillia006]

Finally managed to sell off the last of my duplicates on Ebay. And now I find out theres even more coming....when will this wild ride ever end.

 

[abbabaab]

True but still better than a scalper or having to import (I had to do that on 2 of the zelda ones).

Still enough to make me reconsider picking up Wolf right away.

...Well, that, and all the times that Fox & Falco went on sale for dirt-cheap, but still.

 

[Jodou]

Grabbed two Ridley; Wolf looks pretty sweet, so I'll grab one of those as well once it's up. Funny how I've never used one of these things but they're nice enough figures that I have a small collection going now.

 

[Nocturnx99]

Still trying to offload my Majoras Mask and Twilight Princess amiibo if anyone looking

Thanks!

 

[lilman]

Just Ridley for me. Glad it wasn't hard to get.

 

[Jodou]

And got my orders for Wolf in, thanks!

 

[Super Sonic]

Am I the only one who wishes the Ridley amiibo got the $30 mega sized "Detective Pickachu" scale treatment? He seems tiny, tiny tiny on this one and for $16 I expect a little better.

 

[irighti]

I would love to see them all get the larger scale, but I am just happy to see Ridley in the game to warrant the amiibo in the first place. 

 

[moopher]

FYI - A lot of various Zelda amiibo just got new CSPIA certifications in the last week, so we should be seeing many soon, including those that were exclusives last summer.: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/11021/~/cpsia-certificates-of-compliance

That would have been cool.

Thank god, the Zelda 30th series are the only ones I'm still missing. OOT Link and Toon Zelda I believe

Don't give Nintendo any ideas... Do you know how many people would re-buy them all in Super Size. 2nd mortgage time!

Yes, you're the only one who has suggested this.

 

[Josef]

Got preorders in for the 3 new Smash amiibo at Best Buy with GCU discount.  They probably won't be huge sellout risks for a while (especially with the price markup) but figured it was better to be safe than sorry.

 

[ValueSeeker]

Other than varying digital rewards and collection purposes, is there anything else? Flipping?

Considering each one is around $16, Nintendo sure did a great job introducing amiibos. 

 

[wratih9]

If the 30th Anniversary gets reproduced I'll have to pick up Skyward and Twilight Link as the ones I have are imports. 

 

[Renzler]

The 8-bit link reprints did not have 30th anniversary logo on the box. I would expect the same for these reprints.

 

[skiizim]

The 8-bit link reprints did not have 30th anniversary logo on the box. I would expect the same for these reprints.

Really, never notice that!

 

[Nocturnx99]

I was surprised to see my best buy pre order of Pearl and Marina showed up today

 

[Rig]

My Best Buy order of Pear and Marina also arrived today.

In a good fitting box. They actually arrived with no issues!

 

[soonersfan60]

The 8-bit link reprints did not have 30th anniversary logo on the box. I would expect the same for these reprints.

Is that Nintendo's way of forcing the OCD collectors to re-buy these?

 

[Shadowmoses12]

Amazon Japan has preorders open for the reprints coming out December 7 and some are on sale

 

[El Rey]

I’m a sucker for the 8 bit amiibos, wonder why they’ve never made an 8 bit Donkey Kong, seems kinda like a no brainer

 

[moopher]

Is that Nintendo's way of forcing the OCD collectors to re-buy these?

Nah, it just wasn't the 30th anniversary celebration anymore. It's collector's own issue if they find the need to have both for some reason.

 

[soonersfan60]

Uh-oh! Now everyone will be scrambling for the Animal Crossing amiibo they can't find since they got cleared out for cheap... https://t.co/2EBsicuj16

[ismegamanthere]

Has Wolf come back up for preorder anywhere?

 

[intelligentidiot]

Has Wolf come back up for preorder anywhere?

Gamestop.com has it.

 

[Keen314]

I think yesterday GS finally opened preorders for the new Amiibo.

 

[ValueSeeker]

Speaking of Amiibos, is GS ever going to release Solaire amiibos? Probably more of a Nintendo/Virtuos issue ATM.

My order from May 23 is still processing. Paypal still shows a pending charge all this time. Doesn't look good. I may cancel it soon.

 

[The Byrdman]

They are releasing the amiibo when the Switch version of the game comes out.

 

[tylerh1701]

Yeah I"m sure the amiibo are probably ready to go but they want to release it and the game at the same time.

 

[irighti]

any update on the shovel knight series amiibo?
