Green Yarn Yoshi Amiibo - Japan Import (Yoshis Woolly World Series)

I bought this as a gift for my girlfriend, its very very cute. we havent used the amiibo function with it ever because it isnt compatible with the games we play but it feels and looks nice (unlike many of the other amibos available)

Great product however much smaller than expected - the seller is indicating inches but if you measure in CM then its correct - nevertheless we love it and even better it came a month sooner than expected! so exciting to add this to my collection!

OMG! Super cute and made of yarn! Even though it came from Japan it works with my American games!

This amiibo is just too cute. The quality is top notch and it arrived right on time, would purchase from again.

Was a gift and they loved it.

The team is on!! Theyre so cute and so handy. I take yoshi with me while Im traveling, so much fun.

Im excited to see how nasty these things look after my kids get done playing with them in a few months.

The yarn Yoshi amiibo are meant to work with Yoshis Woolly World for Wii U, and while the game is not out yet in the USA (I plan to get it day 1), I decided to import both the Pink and Blue Yoshis to avoid attempting to get them in store. The yarn amiibo are very interesting, and are quite cute. Theyre much slouchier in real life than they are in the prototype photo, and definitely smaller than you would expect them to be. They are standard amiibo size, but it was still a surprise to see them fit neatly in the palm of your hand. Theyre a woolly, yarn texture and pretty fun to hold and squish. The materials that the Yoshis are made of is not hand knitted, but if you have ever knit or crochet you should be able to tell that from the photos. They are machine knit fabric, sewn like a stuffed animal. Obviously this is the easy production way to go, and it doesnt change how I feel about the toy, but I figured Id throw that knowledge out there to everyone. Over all, I quite like the Woolly amiibo, and plan to get Green with the game. Theyre very cute next to the other amiibo, making a unique part of my few that Ive collected.

Once I saw these announced I knew these would be hard to find in NA, so I decided to import and forego the inevitable hassle and hours of line waiting these amiibo would bring. The price was fair, though I have to admit a little annoyance as the prices for these are dropping a little each week. Maybe that means the craze is over, who knows? All in all, it was worth it to import, though the wait was a bit long. As to the amiibos, they are plush, not too big, Id say about 3 to 4 inches tall. They have little cloth hooks on their heads to use as a key chain, if you so choose. Definitely one of the better amiibos so far. I highly recommend getting these if you are an amiibo collector, or if you just think they are cute.

Dont get this if youre interested in the packaging, it looked bad and had both creases connected to the plastic slightly open. Luckily i bought it to use and i love the quality of the actual yoshi. Its adorable!
