Well all the Smash ones are out so yeah. Unless they release a big Skylanders-like game whether it's a crossover game or a new IP, it won't see much more activity.

>>333788110
Not all of them. There are still Cloud/Bayonetta/Corrin later this year, and then that'll be it.

It's true that those Animal Crossing ones aren't selling nearly as well as the Smash and Mario lines did. Amazon, Gamestop, and Toys-R-Us frequently have deals and price cuts trying to get rid of them.

I don't get it. Is this scalping shit just a US thing? Every EbGames/Target/Dept Store I go to in Australia has like 90% of amibos.

Also do you really have store exclusives?

There are so many goddamn Animal Farm amiibos and the local Gamestops are really trying to get rid of them.

But Amiibo's for Smash are still selling. I haven't seen Roy since release day.

Probably.
Just three more left until my Sm4sh collection's complete.

I want to believe they'll make amiibos for the alternate costumes after they get done with all the characters. Female Robin and Corrin are the only ones I really want right now. Well aside from Megaman.

Fuck the new Dedede, it looks hideous. They still need to print more Smash Dededes.

Maybe if Amibo Festival was actually good and Home Designer hadn't already got the AC crowd hooked on one form of Amiibo they'd actually sell. It's no shock that they're shelfwarming like they are.
>>333790552
Yeah, while amiibos were hard to find over here when they first came it was way worse in the US. They had port strikes blocking the flow of stuff coming into the country and stores were(and honestly probably still are) under ordering and underestimating demand. That made Amiibos rare and prone to Speculation. As the port strike finished and supplies increased the situation didn't get better, more and more speculators started snapping them up stopping the supply problem from improving, fuelling further speculation and attracting more speculation.
And yeah they have store exclusives, we did too actually but they were mostly variants so not many noticed or cared. Store exclusives are super common things when it comes to toys and collectibles.
>>
>>333791760
Seriously?

I paid $7 for each. What country are you in? I'm guessing USA.

Depends how the NX handles them, they should have more use going into a generation from the start.

>and they look better
are you retarded?
no seriously
tell me how they look better

Does anyone still have theirs in the boxes?

I do because I have yet to find a legit reason to use them. I have my Megaman and Squidling ones out because I do use them. The rest though are just hanging on my wall.

Don't you feel shitty about having that collection of worthless figures?

How do you live with wasting that much money? I understand maybe buying one or two of these but that shit is just plain retarded.
>>
I have a Megaman amiibo and I plan on buying a Cloud amiibo whenever that comes out.

Megaman is still in its original packaging on my shelf, mint condition. I just like to look at it, I never had any intention of ever doing retarded "amiibo training" nonsense and I will probably end up selling it years down the road if it goes up into the hundreds. I spent $13 for it and it's already worth $30 right now. Pretty solid investment, I'd say.

No, but I had thought about buying it. The Legacy Collection+Gold Megaman bundle is definitely going to be worth hundreds if you hoard it now and wait ten years.

So you were one of those fuckers you took them all when they came out.
GameStop never restock them.

And the shiny ones are worth $100 each

No, this is only the beginning.

Nintendo has seen that they can get people to buy these things and they will go crazy with them for years to come now.
