>>8517039thats a very good question. lets break it down.
the "figure" when painted not bad, the handful i have the paint is where it should be
ZERO articulation! im a statueshit collector now! (are they machine made or do they whip kids in a sweatshop? i dont know) oh and a plush yoshi.
the second half of the amiibo the part that makes it unique
(lego does it, disney, skylanders, that one starlink/starfox game and other forgettable gimmick gametoys )
the circuit chip thingy! you scan it... bout it.
pokken tournament came with a card that can be read. didnt animal crossing have something for the 3ds at somepoint similar on cards? or was that qr codes? if so disregard that.
the crossover compatibility was UNDERWHELMING. you can scan some into marioparty and that one kirby game with the robot. and Metroid3ds had a i need items cos i suck at the game feature.
i cant even use the pokemon ones with the 3ds pokemon games for a onetime only gift pokemon.
in closing ... i regret buying the few i did.
