    Why did you have to tell me that!!!

    Tbh it's what has put me off buying one of these yolks.

    I'd say just one more sure it's only €15.

    Fair play though it's a savage display.

    I wonder will you regret taking them all out of their boxes in say 20 years if the boxed prices become insane?

    No Yoshi in Smyths Galway the staff are looking for them too, did get one of two Jigglypuff there though was gonna buy both but I'm a nice guy so I only got one. I'm hoping for some birthday luck next week while I'm up north I'll be looking out for Yoshi and Robin in Belfast.

    Btw has anyone used the Fire Emblem Amiibos on Codename ****e yet and do they do anything, I refer back to Shulk and the useful play coins he provides. :(

    You shouldn't have told him that either. :D

    Holy jeebus!!!

    I just did a very rough count there of about 44 amiibo's

    Let's say €15 approx per figure on average multiplies by 44 = €660!!

    Fair play. That's dedication.

    I prefer to say on average each one cost €10 otherwise I'd have to realise I have a problem.

    Managed to snag a Marth in Galway this morning, no sign of Robin or Lucina though. Might pop into the local Smyths and see if they have any Blue Yoshi.

    Btw nowhere is safe the CeX here has a bunch of Little Mac behind the counter, Oh Lordy Lordy they'll never see the light of another day. ;)

    Where did you get marth in Galway do you mind me asking? and was that Cex here?

    Those skylanders/amiibo hybrids are going to be pricey as you will need to but the game 4 times just to get all the amiibo variants


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,147 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Got Marth in Argos Galway. Last one in stock too. :(

    Does anyone know where I might be able to get the splatoon amiibos? Or will I have to trawl the inter webs for them?

    what's the chances of picking up or where should I pick upturn next wave? My preorders were cancelled.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,147 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Try and get them on Smyths site after midnight on Thursday/Friday they should be up for click and collect, or Argos around 5am on Friday morning.

    I don't wanna buy any of this round but will probably end up with the Dr Mario as it is awesome.

    The Bowser Jr one looks brilliant.

    I'm a fan of the Olimar one, I think the detail on it looks great.


  • Registered Users Posts: 216 ✭✭FallSilently


    If anybody still needs a Palutena, she's on Littlewoods for €15.

    There's about 7 of her and Dark Pit each in Smyths Naas along with a few Warios

    You can have mine. I have them ordered and paid in Gamestop. I sold my collection and these are still leftovers from then.
    16.99 each. Usual Gamestop price.

    Just have to meet me at gamestop on friday or so.

    Same here Olimar definitely looks the best out of them i think.

    You can get Bowser and Donkey Kong with the Skylanders game for Wii U and 3DS. Its up for pre order now, their is also a Dark Bowser and Dark Donkey Kong so you would have to but the game twice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 482 ✭✭souleater3000


    You can only Pre-order in the shop once up on the site, no?


  • Registered Users Posts: 216 ✭✭FallSilently


    I believe that's the case. The in-store systems in Gamestop are tied to their online site. I remember when I was bugging my local store almost daily for preorders for Jigglers and Greninja, when they could finally take them, I went home and found they were up on the website too. Since then I don't even go near the store.

    not sure if it was mention but now up on amazon is the Super Mario Maker Bundle - Artbook and amiibo

    The Dark editions sell out super fast on these they're also always €20+ higher than the standard. Gods/Flying Spaghetti Monster damn Activision, evil fcukers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,147 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Anyone needs a Bowser Jr or Olimar I have a spare of each available. Bowser Jr looks awesome and the Pikmin look cool on Olimar.

    The Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker amiibo bundle is in the new Argos catalogue. Seemingly, it's exclusive to them.

    The three new amiibo are up on GameStop's site, though stock is finally good throughout the country.
