Yea, I just checked then.

The original release/pre-order date said 16th and I had it on a sticky note to remind me. I guess I better update the sticky note!

Doesn't Woolly World come out on the same day for the UK/Europe/both?

Did it? Never noticed that, just always thought it was the 26th when it was confirmed in Europe.

And yeah they do, along with the Woolly amiibo's too.
 
Nintendo of America has dropped a couple more CPSIA certificates this month. So far, both Silver Mario and Green Yarn Yoshi have received 2 months of production. Since they're relatively simple to mass-produce, they're not going to be extremely common, nor rare.

I also put up a positive review of Sheik amiibo, and I'm going to review the Splatoon amiibo soon due of the game's popularity and see if it's worth forking a fair amount of money on them.

It is June 26 btw, you can just say Europe since the UK, Europe and Australia (whilst having massive time zone differences) are one region for Nintendo.

It apparently is "Europe and Australia" officially.
 
I only need one more amiibo after July 17th and I would have septupled my collection from Wave One.

November 28th 2014: 11 amiibo
July 17th 2015: 76 amiibo

You didn't have all 12 on the first day? You've lied to me... :(

Zelda is quite a rare one, at least in the UK.

That's nice, but they were asking for help on how amiibo work, not asking how rare it is. It's nice to see where your priorities lie.

Doesn't mean they have the same release dates tho.

Australia is getting yarn yoshi on the 25th and the amiibo on July 4th, whereas Europe is getting them all June 26th
 
Amiibos hate me. I raged about the Splatoon Amiibos, but there was this six pack available on GameStop's website with Lucina, Charizard, Wario, Robin, Pacman, and Ness for like $77. My sister and I decided we'd go half on it, but when we added it to the cart it said my shopping cart was empty several times. I logged off and on the website, but this time it had completely disappeared from the search.
 
Okay guys, do you think I should take the plunge and buy the Charizard amiibo for $17 online, or can I find a better deal elsewhere? I am conflicted... I wish I could see how good the amiibo looks in person before buying it. If it looked really nice, I would buy it without qualms. If it doesn't look as good, I am unsure if I should wait instead...

I assume you mean from GameStop online?

Speaking from experience, GameStop has not disappointed me yet with a shipment. I can't speak for everyone, but they have sent me well-boxed, very nicely-painted amiibo in every shipment I've gotten from them so far. And that's about five shipments.

And if it's defective or doesn't meet your standards, you can always get a refund if it's within 30 days, I believe.

Yup, it's the Gamestop one. I would be okay paying $13 + tax, but I hate that the shipping bumps it up to $17. I've been staring at the page all afternoon and trying to decide if it's a silly use of money. But I love my pikachu amiibo and would like to think that charizard looks just as cool.

Well, it's your call in the end! You can always check for him in local stores that carry amiibo, as well. I saw him in my Wal-Mart last week. He's not really one of the "rare" amiibo, so you might be able to find him. Depends on where you are and how popular amiibo are in the area, though.

I took the plunge and bought him. He's the first amiibo I've bought new! Yikes, this could lead to something dangerous...

You're right about one major thing though: if I don't like him, I'll just return him. And I am never bummed about having to go to Gamestop and look around.
 
Ugh, now my grandparents are enabling my Amiibo addiction :p I came home from work yesterday to find a Yoshi Amiibo with a note apologising for not seeing me for a long time (whenever they offer to take my brother and I out I am always working) and saying that my brother said I didn't have this... So now I have 7 Amiibo, with Inkling girl set to arrive early next week, Luigi, Sheik and Bowser are meant to arrive today too... But I'm staying strong, no more Amiibo until next months pay cheque!

Your grandparents are awfully sweet. It was also very thoughtful of them to make sure you didn't get a duplicate!

...can I adopt your grandparents?
