It’s weird to think how, as a kid who loved figures AND games, Skylanders were the kind of thing I would have killed for. Once that tech became real, I was in my 20s and never got around to picking any up, then later Amiibo roll out and I’ve collected every Smash Bros figure to date, despite how there’s barely even an attempt at that illusion that the toy you bought is now the same character you’re controlling in-game that Skylanders went for.

The Amiibo hardly bring me any joy outside of a neat display wall, but I’m in too deep to not finish collecting the Fighters’ Pass characters when they come out.
It’s like how one day you realize that Legos and Hotwheels aren’t fun anymore, no matter how much you try to recreate the same feeling by making VROOM sounds like a retard, except that in the case of Amiibo the product itself is missing a key component that fuels that childlike wonder and intrigue.

the only amiibos i own is DK and Bowser because they were also skylanders. When they were announced at E3, i practically gave no shit for whatever else.

also yeah, as amiibos theyre virtually useless.

Lego is always fun because you can just go outside instruction manual. Who the fuck doesn't like lego?

Not really. I still buy all of the Smash ones but it's more of a going through the motions situation than anything. Besides those, it's a dead concept. At least as figures. I think the Animal Crossing amiibo would have sold well if they came out like a week after New Horizons. It's getting a bit late to justify them now though.

just proves further that nintendo relies on brand loyalty so much that it works. doesnt matter if it's great or not, we still need Terry Bogart amiibo even though it does absolutely nothing. it's no different from Gamefreak not achieving the same production prowess that current market games work so hard to achieve

I guess. It's more about being a completionist for me and I appreciate how they look but even from the start, they were more about having a figurine of characters that don't normally get merch (like Ice Climbers and R.O.B.) than their actual in-game function. When they did have in-game functions it acted more as a bonus to me than a primary function.

Unlike them as representations of some of my favorite characters but they are so fucking hard to get that I don't even bother anymore. They fucked themselves by glutting traditional stores with peg warming animal crossing shit that no one would buy anymore and I'm not paying scalpers prices online. So I just have about 10-15 that I like and that's it.

i hate to say this, but maybe they should just make statues/figurines. Not like amiibos would be any better

The latest Amiibos look great...

But the first wave and the ones that have that props look horrible.

I really want for them to rerelease the first waves based on Smash Bros. Ultimate characters.

Some are great, but some are really bad, like Fox (prop), Link, Peach, Villager...

Joker and Ridley are awsome, because they sculpted the prop correctly.

All the other Amiibos are great, except for that Cereal box one. That and some of the Smash Bros. series.

Bayonetta sculpt is incredible but her prop is horrible, why didn't they "hid" her prop to look great?

So a rerelease of some of these characters would a be a must buy for me. The prototype props were so great, just a small, thin, transparent line...

He does look great like this, even if it's 1:1 to the game.

Bayonetta is just "floating".

Pretty much every character from other series look great though. Except, maybe, for a few here and there.
