Amiibos....collector urge growing...

CliCliW

Hi! Mind if I join in the discussion on occasion?

Any idea what's the story with Little Mac on Smyth's toys website? It's been listed as TBC 2015 for a little while now...

It was available at the very beginning of July, but I don't think it's been restocked since it sold out.

Dang, that's a huge disappointment. I think out of all the Smash lineup (that's what I'm collecting), he's one of the harder ones to find.. This collecting thing is harder than it looks!

I can't believe they're actually selling them for that amount. Like whatever about the Yarn Yoshis, there's nothing particularly special about the Inklings.

Just got my inklings from Germany. Think that's the last ones until Mario maker bundle. Anyone else not plan to buy any of them, like me, then end up with more than a few?

That'll be me - had only planned on getting one for Hyrule Warriors and now I have nine....last one was Pac Man just because I'm old and played it in an "Arcade".

FallSilently

Nah, I was always gonna get some. Half a dozen at most. Didn't work out that way.

RobbingBandit

I have 18 will be picking up two more tomorrow, still looking for Lucina, Robin and Captain Falcon of the previously available, will get both Mario Maker, all 2D and all Mii plus the Animal Crossing ones and any others I can get me hands on.

CastorTroy

Smyths here in Cork had all sorts of amiibo in stock, from pretty much every wave, even a few Marth's there. Picked up a Toon Link myself.

Do they have the two yarn yoshi blue and pink?

RobbingBandit

Looks like Robin is in stock in a few stores, I am finally done with these cursed trinkets until the Animal Crossing set comes out.

So what people think about the amiiqo device or is talk about that not allowed ?

I can't remember seeing them there but I would say with all the restocking it would only be a matter of time.

RobbingBandit

All four Fire Emblem characters in Jervis earlier, sweet sweet Robin and Lucina are finally mine, woooooooooo hooooooooooooo.

Probably not allowed.

supposedly I have 2 coming to me, because there was a wii u bug in the app and the reseller feel like holding back until whenever they think it's fixed.

Apparently so, and they are selling them

Had a look at that last night, can we not just program our own NFC with his phone app it seems?

This Amiiqo thing is every in-box collector's dream! I won't be buying or supporting it though. I don't really want them for Game Functionality, but collectability.

When was the restock? I'm dying to finish my fire emblem set with Marth and Lucina for retail prices.

yesterday in Dublin, each store only got one box of each so four of each figure, marth probably won't sell out but Lucina and Robin will so get in quick if you want her.

Dang, I'm in Limerick. All I can do is wait till the next restock I think. I need to save up some more for these xD

RobbingBandit

I am thinking of getting rid of my figures, I'll keep the four Fire Emblem ones but not the rest so I'll have Link, Ness, Rosalina, Little Mac, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Pacman, Sonic, an unboxed Villager, Jigglypuff, Shulk and a few others I need to dig out of their hiding places to flog.

I'm never gonna get them all so might be time to say goodbye and grab that Amigo thingy instead sometime down the line.

If you ever need a buyer for Sonic, do let me know!

Never mind - got Sonic for 12 euro delivered from Littlewoods Ireland - they seem to be having a sale and a lot of the old ones are 12 euro now

Winning!

Nintendo picked a tag that phones can't emulate anymore.
