Kirby Amiibo - Japan Import (Super Smash Bros Series)

It arrived 13 days for the expected delivery date, very pleased with the shipping speed! And Im glad I only spent $20 on this Japanese import Amiibo. Im also pleased that I bought this before the actual day its supposed to come out here in the US. Sadly I couldnt preorders these because the stupid server crashed in game stop. But now that I finally have charizard in my hands Im pleased! And soon I have a Robin and Lucina Amiibo coming in soon that are also Japanese imports. And next Im going after Pacman and Wario. While ness Ill deal with last. And as for this Charizard I have in my hands right now is awesome and its kicking butt in my team! Charizard will soon have a mind of its own and it will be unbeatable when its maxed out!!

This review is for toon link specifically, besides all this shady scalping that is happening everywhere and we have to live with it , we are in essence buying a cheap toy. First off this figure works for many games Hyrule warriors, breath of the wild, and super smash bros, That is quite a lot of games! so you are gonna have to open it collectors! (yay?) The figure looks very good which surprised me (hence the three stars). but if you notice his animation is in the jumping pose and is being hold by some transparent thing, this thing breaks very easily, so dont play with it with your kids....

I got my Rosalina amiibo today! Shes one of the rarest so far due to being exclusive to Target and MarioTehPlumber. The guy hates (loves) Rosalina so much, he bought 100 of these so no one else can have one. Thankfully, hes only doing it for the North American versions. The cosmic princess is pretty pricey, but thats mainly to pay off import fees, shipping, and customs. It is being brought over the Pacific Ocean to get here. Now one to the figure itself. Rosalina looks great. The more cartoony characters always seem to look better as amiibo and Rosalina is no exception. Shes also got quite some detail on her. She has a nice star pattern at the bottom of her dress. Her crown has some design on it that the Smash Bros Peach lacks. She also has purple nail polish on if you look closely. Luma looks perfect as well. The is some plastic to hold Rosalina and Luma up. Youll automatically see it on Luma. You might not even notice it on Rosalina since her dress hides it well. Rosalina has become a rare gem for amiibo hunters. Aside from Smash, she can also be used for Mario Kart 8 for a Rosalina themed racing suit and in Mario Party 10 to unlock the Rosalina board in Amiibo Party mode. If you want here for the previously mentioned reasons or just a fan of her, go ahead and buy one here (I doubt well get a restock any time soon and I dont think MarioTehPlumber wants to share.)

The item was exactly what I was expecting, Zero Suit Samus Amiibo (Japanese version). There are slight differences in the coloration between the NA & JPN versions, nothing too dramatic, and barely noticeable, but the JPN Amiibo also feel like theyre made differently, slightly better build. In the end, theyre Amiibo, and all are region-free, so you can use your JPN Amiibo in NA nintendo systems. My only *concern* is the way amazon ships these. Im not a collector, I opened up my Amiibo packaging so I can display the actual Amiibo. But amazon bent the top part of the cardboard, where the peg hook hole is located, to make the item fit in the box. If I was a collector, I would be upset. This is in no way a reflection on the seller, just the way Amazon shipped my package. Do they do this every time? I dont know, but it was my experience. Sorry I couldnt upload pictures, but the Amazon app kept crashing whenever I tried to do so.

It was exactly what I wanted

Although Nintendo has been actively been listening to fans by producing more amiibo [which was one reason why scalpers reduced their prices], yet again, they underestimate the popularity of all of their IP in Americas, including the ones more popular in Japan/Europe by still not producing enough amiibo. And thats why this review is getting 4 stars instead of 5. tl;Dr Great product, beautifully designed and high quality, but more expensive than it should be because of limited quantities and scalpers.

There item is exactly what I ordered, at a good price, delivered very quickly. Cannot complain about any of that, those are all great things! Amiibos are collectable and mine was folded (the cardboard backing was folded over the plastic) to make it fit in a box when it could have been put in the other way (lengthwise) and it wouldnt have damaged the packaging. Pretty disappointed by that. But if youre gonna take it out of the packing, theres no prob

My son feel in love with Rosalina after unlocking her on Super Mario 3D World. I went to Toys R Us, Walmart, Target, Sams and local hobby shops and was not able to find her amiibo anywhere. When I was asking an employee about it at Toys R Us he informed me that one man bought all of the Rosalina amiibos and burn them due to him not liking the character. I do not know how much of that is actually true but judging by the price of some of them (especially the USA imported ones) I think I believe it! So far we have had no problems with this. The paint looks great and the stick that she is posed on is holding up well. We bought the peach super smash brothers amiibo from Walmart and it was broken the next day. So this one is definitely a better quality one. The price is a little high but for how hard it is to find them it is pretty good.

I thought this was a rather nice Amibo, A good quality figure like most of nintendos line. I am not sure if this is just a problem with me or with all of them but the right arm (the shield arm) seemed a bit loose. It feels like it could easily break off. As for the games it compatible with, the super mario maker sprite it unlocks is a bit nice, and I thought the Yarn yoshi skin was a bit cute. Though at the time of writing that about all for unique unlockibles , for most however it just kind of unlocks extra in game currency or something to that effect.

I purchased this as a collectors item, not for functional purposes. Its a very cute little piece and the paint is neat. It came in a lot faster than I expected (estimated: 2-3 weeks, received within 5 days) and the processing sticker that are sometimes on Amazon products came off very neatly with one pull; no residue or tearing. Yes, the packaging is in Japanese if anyone is concerned about that. I know some people are concerned with the pricing. Shes limited edition, selling at a higher price because of that is normal. Normally, LEs go waaay up once theyre no longer manufactured. So, you could either pay $35 now or wait in the hopes that more are made and you can find one cheaper. But you run the risk of that -not- happening and having to shell out $50+ UPDATE: As predicted, the price for this Amiibo went up to $50 less than 2 months after my review, and remained that price for 2-3 months. Nintendo later announced they would continue manufacturing Amiibos, which means there are enough for everyone. The price has dropped down to $25 because of this.
