Lucas amiibo (Super Smash Bros Series)

My nephew was quite excited to have received this for Christmas last year which makes me, the shopper, happy too!

She is really well done and I was very pleased with the way Amazon handled the sale of her. It was nice to know what time she would be up for sale as well as the date and the limit was fantastic. No worry about scalpers on this one. It took a few tries of having to refresh the pages but it was worth it.

The figure is good, not that detailed but its good for a human figurine.

Great quality figure, the details really are surprising! Wasnt expecting her to be so nice looking. Also wasnt expecting it to be a japanse figure, but I think thats really cool so color me surprised!

Came in fast! Looks awesome!

I purchased this pac man amiibo from espino bargain used and was fully trained. It works perfectly and came quickly.

Given that these figures have at least two purposes, Ill strive to address both of those in this review. First off, as a figure itself- Samus is probably my favorite that theyve released so far. Mine looks crisp, clean, and exactly like you would expect a suit of cybernetic armor to look like when shrunk to miniature. Theres no articulation, but for the price of these figures I dont know why you would expect it to do much moving. All in all, figure alone is worth the price paid. Now, for the NFC portion- right now its uses are fairly limited, given that so few games are compatible with Amiibo. Because of this, Ill only be focusing on Smash Bros. Within that particular game, these are quite fun- its essentially an NPC you can bring with you into Smash matches. You can change the costume, level it up through fights, and feed it items to boost its base stats. It learns and adapts to fight beside (or against) you, and it does this very, very well. However, you cannot play as your amiibo or use it in non-smash modes, likely since it would greatly unbalance the single player experience. While disappointing, its understandable as this is supposed to be a game based on skill, not how many items do I have to eat until Im unbeatable? So, in summation- this isnt Skylanders or Disney Infinity. Youre not going to use Samus to unlock things, but Amiibo can and WILL enhance your experience and bring more to the game than has ever been present in Smash before.

Amiibos are super fun and an interesting dimension to Video Games. This Link is fully details and works well even as a type of Home Office Decor.

Purchased for my 4.5 year old. He loved it and in addition to using it with his wii u, he likes to just play with it as a figurine. Its great.

Great addition to the collection!
