Hero-of-Time Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Man, that is so sweet. Looks like you're out of shelf space though, where the rest of 'em and the AC amiibo gonna hang out? Yeah, I'm gonna have to move the N64 games to some place else. Lovely collection Got a photo of the damaged one? I'm intrigued. My Ganondorf from them was immaculate today.

S.C.G Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I decided to have a look back through the first few pages of this thread, as it has been seven months since a lot of us started collecting and about a year since amiibo were announced. It's interesting seeing how things escalated rather quickly... Went ahead and pre-ordered Link, Zelda, Marth, Mario, Samus & Yoshi but I may cancel some of them closer to the date, we'll see. : peace: I'm hoping that they might drop to a slightly more 'pocket friendly' £8.99 or something, perhaps discount for quantity or a bundle maybe? Well after vowing only to buy a handful of Amiibo consisting of three for my collection and a couple for Christmas presents I've now gone and ordered the full set after one of the ones from ShopTo didn't arrive - ended up being the double Link instead - so I went on a mission and then got caught up in the madness of discount codes... so erm yeah. At least one or two of them ended up being free though, anyone looking for a saving on Amiibo go on to Tesco, spend at least £30 then use this code for £5 for today only... TDX-FXRT Makes them a bit cheaper at least. : peace: I haven't actually unsealed any of mine yet, was going to wait until I have at least five of them in my possession though I was wondering, how did some of you open the packaging? Did you do it carefully using the 'box cutter' method or just savagely rip them open? I've finally finished my current Amiibo collection. Behold! Yes @Hero\-of\-Time ages 25-35+ definitely seems to be the emerging demographic for these glorious pieces of plastic. Anyway sod it, I enjoy collecting them! : peace: I will post some more up to date pictures soon possibly as my setup has completely changed since then, I've even started spreading my amiibo out within my room. It has been an interesting few months, that's for certain. : peace: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V. Amoleo Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Anybody else's Palutena got really badly painted hands? The hand holding the staff is blue all around the top and the other hand looks like a claw! My Dark Pit also has the black of his weapon painted onto his hand too. The Ganondorf is really nice. Zero Suit Samus isn't bad either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandalore Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I'm not really a collector but I have been getting some entertainment out of amiibo recently. Training up my Donkey Kong amiibo for my local StreetPass group's 2nd amiibo tournament at the weekend. My all out attack and speed Captain Falcon didn't do so well in the first tournament, so I'm making my DK into a tank for this one.

Hero-of-Time Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 No. Not YET! Are they ever coming over here? Possibly. I know the silver one has now been released in Australia, so there's still hope. My search for Dedede may be over! My local Argos gots ome stock in during the night and I have reserved one to pick up after work. This could be the end of my Amiibo hunting days....at least for now.

Murr Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Behold! A complete ( at least so far ) open collection. I am so fucking jealous. I currently have 21 Amiibo (22 technically as I have 2 Marth). I've kept them all unopened, but I do want to try and get them all twice to have an open set and boxed set. Do you even have a set of the Yoshi unopened too? Seriously man... such a hot picture.

Cheers. Yeah, I have the Yoshi and Splatoon ones all boxed as well. I plan on redecorating soon, so all the boxed ones are boxed away at the moment. Once that's done, I will get them all mounted on the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterl0 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 What used to be there before your collection? What has been sacrificed for your Amiibo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you had to pay over the odds for some of them from eBay and such? If so what's the most you've paid? Sorry if that's too intrusive of a question, just really curious with regards to how you've managed to get them all (bar dede) twice and if it was easy? I've struggled with some of the rarer ones I've got, but in fairness It's my own fault as I don't pre-order and tend to spend my money on other things like games, dvd's, lego, beer etc. I guess If I devoted my monthly personal spending budget to Amiibo I could buff my collection up more.

Yeah, I paid £20-30 for some of them but most of them I managed to get for the normal price. I could have just waited and hoped to catch the restocks but I just wanted them in my collection and over and done with. It was actually a later wave ( ones with Ness, Charizard etc. ) I had to do this with, as Nintendo UK store screwed me over and cancelled a bunch of my preorders.

peterl0 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Cool. My old games were boxed up a long time ago and so my Amiibo live behind the TV at the moment. Need a better place for them really. I see your N64 games are still there (I think). Any particular reason they have survived the boxing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VsPhoenix Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 So the postman has been with today's amiibo delivery... My family will be sponsoring our own Royal Mail van at this rate. Silver Mario turned up yesterday too, but his packaging is slightly damaged. Tempted to just open him as I can't be bothered with the hassle of returning him to America and all my others are open anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
