The VG Resource

Nintendo has been making a killing with Amiibo as far as it seems. Certain ones sell out in MINUTES online, people bust down doors and form lines down sidewalks trying to get them.

In reality, I'm sure that a lot of places actually have amiibo that people are looking for, but it isn't helpful if the one you want is store pickup only across the country.


Nintendo will probably periodically rerelease certain ones over periods of time. Even if nobody wants them, people like MariothePlumber will keep Nintendo going strong by literally pouring money into their pocket.

I've only just got into collecting them. Already preorded three, two of which might be hard to find afterwards: Inkling, Paluetena and ZS Samus.
And as a regular Ebay user. The scalping for any Amiibo is freaking ridiculous, and scalping is against Ebay's rules too.

Want to get the Inkling Squid as well, but EB Games Australia doesn't have it sold separately yet for preorder. Only in the bundle pack.

As far as I know, the Inkling Squid is exclusive to the bundle and not planned to be sold separately.

I'm really hoping the Fire Emblem ones become more common before I dive into Codename STEAM...

Thought so. After seeing the images that turned out to be photoshopped: single box, and one that comes with the game.

Wanted to get the Fire Emblem as well, with no luck due to the ones i was looking for being sold out already.
Not to worry since that Figma Lucina is next on my figure collecting list, because it looks awesome.

That...might take a little while, based on the way things are with amiibo right now. You might be able to find the game cheaper than the amiibo at that point

That's fine. November/December are the only two months I buy new releases at retail anyways (ah, the season of discounts).

Prime dumpster diving time, need to get rid of all that excess inventory.

not sure if i'm the biggest earthbound fan of the Netherlands or just the biggest asshole.

i only needed one, but i wanted ness so bad i decided to pre-order two more at different shops so i could bet on different horses. they all came through.


still hunting for meta knight, king dedede and shulk.

my collection so far:

man, im trying to focus on the amiibo there, but your hairstyle has my attention than those ness amiibos. its really well done...!

also, i see falcon over there, which makes me even more jealous... ;____;

meanwhile I am still sucking my thumb...

i am going to make papercrafts to lessen the pain of not having amiibos.

actually, unless you have a Wii U, I think you'd be better off with the Lucina figma.

i feel like i've already stated this in the thread for some reason



opposable waifu > tiny lil babby statue

I was referring to that too

but same difference if I can't have any

My GameStop received 1 random Marth today.

Normal face and non-bent sword.

I got it
(If getting one Marth per store is what Nintendo mean by "restock" then I think these will never be easily accessible)
