...Am...Am I in heaven? Do you know where this was taken?

Looked at the original post. Nothing said...

 

[spiderfreak1011]

Meanwhile, somewhere in Australia...

(I got the first picture off /r/amiibo, it's not mine.)

I want to go to that place in the next month, lol. All those amiibo, they even have Jiggly and Rosa. I could get Fox, Greninja and maybe a Merth and LM as bonuses to my collection. : O

I'll just quote myself in another thead for a little story:

Just two days ago while playing around with my Lucina amiibo, I finally got her to Level 50 and I pit her against most of my other figurines: 2 stock, no equipment, 6 min, customs on (though unfortunately I don't have all the custom moves I want for my amiibo), and the fights all happen on the same stage for each set. I gave Lucina Crescent Slash and Dashing Assault (would also given her Iai Counter if I had it) and she defeated almost everyone I matchmade her with. SOme of them were able to take 1 game off of her, but even when she did lose, she somehow adapts and ends up taking back victory the next game:

Rekt
Rekt
Rekt
Rekt
Close, but still victorious
Even closer
The most intense of them all, but still beaten

Unfortunately, I accidentally left my Wii U on for over an hour without touching it, erasing the data and experience I could've saved to her and the others, and i had to repeat this challenge again. Shulk (who I usually pair with her in teams, as I personally ship these two ) gave her a run for a money the first time and was the first to take 1 game in his favor, but somehow lost his magic touch in the reach match and got beaten pretty hard. Other than that, the results didn't really change much at all and she had a win streak of 7 (14 if counting the rematches despite the reset). So far, the only one who managed to beat her was in a real close match, although I made him fight Sonic (who hardly laid a scratch on Lucy) afterwards and somehow performed a LOT worse than he did with Lucina and got trashed, have no idea how it went that way.

Truth be told, I am honestly very surprised she did this well considering how she isn't exactly regarded as a good character competitively, and I like to think of her as the queen of the house as far as amiibos go, easily the strongest one in the household right now and I'm actually really happy with it. I must admit, I do have quite a lot of other amiibos that are untrained, don't have the customs I wanna give them, or I just haven't pit them against her yet: and ; and I can't lie that this is a pretty big number. Even so, a lot of these characters are pretty janky/unorthodox or haven't really done anything impressive when I trained them (Yoshi in particular, is horrendously stupid). I do believe Ness, Pikachu, Meta Knight, or Charizard (only with customs tho, once I get them anyway) could potentially defeat her once they're ready; but my faith in the others can basically be summed up like this:

Spoiler

I've never felt so satisfied like this when it comes to training amiibo, and this makes me even happier with getting Lucina than before; not only being one of the most stylish figurines, but by far the most fun and the most effective one I've trained so far. If she can't be good competitively, at least she could be high tier as an amiibo. If amiibo tournaments ever become a thing, definitely gonna main her lol

My other amiibo champions include: and the rest I'm still exploring ( could probably be or , most likely). Who would you guys consider the strongest amiibo in your households?

 

[CycIone]

Marth, Greninja, Jigglypuff, PAC-MAN... but no Mario to be seen?

RARE! INCREASE PRICE STAT!

 

[Game&Watcher]

Just got my . I wish his costume in MK8 was based on his biker outfit rather than his classic overalls, even if they are more iconic. (I'm sure that was an unpopular opinion.)

Now if the ******** would only stop charging $25 in shipping

Then I could get Rosalina for a decent price.

Palutena is definitely the worst looking of all the Wave 5a Amiibo. Her eyes are just off, and her hands are large.

Had a hard time getting her out of the box because her left arm feels like it could snap at any moment like Rosalina's head, Marth's sword, or Jigglypuff's base. Her hair though is really thick/large so it's more durable than the FE/Ganon capes and she has a clear plastic holder in her back to keep it from moving. Her dress is fairly thick, and her staff is attached to it.

Said the Rosalina main.

 

[PF9]

For those who want to get a Little Mac in the future, my suggested name is Rocky. I think you know where that one comes from.

 

[ChikoLad]

Said the Rosalina main.

>Implying they needed to give Rosalina a boob job going into Smash or put focus on her lady parts in her trailer to make people think she is the most beautiful lady on the roster.

Rosalina is pure, sophisticated, tasteful beauty, not cheap weeaboo/hentai lover pandering. She is only so widely appreciated because she is a quality character in every aspect.

But that's none of my business.

 

[KenboCalrissian]

Ugh... I want to argue with you but I can't. Palutena's trailer really was uncharacteristic of Nintendo.

 

[ChikoLad]

It's OK, I'm half joking anyway. I like Palutena well enough, though I think Smash did cheapen her a bit with some mindless fan service and what not.

It's not really relevant here though, the way her figure looks is merely coincidence. It's a very disappointing one, though.

You guys aren't any fun. LMAO

These are amiibos we're talking about - many of us have arranged cartels just to collect the darn things

 

[ChikoLad]

So anyone name there Amiibos anything silly lately?

I called my Wario "Le Fartman", and my Charizard "Spyro".

 

[CaptainAmerica]

I gave most of mine silly names while I let them custom farm, was gonna give them real names later. Couple of them though are really fun.

T-wrecks
Back Again (taking the DK rap literally)
Eisenhower
Whopper (my personal favorite: Little Mac -> Big Mac -> Whopper)
Dovahkiin (Smaug was really close too)

 

[KenboCalrissian]

I'm sure I've posted this before, but the list has expanded a little since...

: Bowie
: Dingles
: DTY
: Lemongrab
: Zelda
: Link
: Pookmin
: Poochie
: Sanic
: Tink

The ones you have listed as "impossible" are all in the middle of restocks that are continuing going forward, except for maybe Robin. You should be able to find them if you keep an eye out.

Oh I know. It's just that finding one on a random outing is basically impossible, so I just called it that.

At the very least you should be able to find them online (unless that isn't an option). I've seen them all pop up quite a bit for MSRP. Keep an eye on /r/amiibo if you wish, people are always posting about random restocks and what not.

Apparently that Robin amiibo I ordered got sent back to seller due to customs problems but he re-sent it. Here's hoping that it actually arrives to my house this time.

Also, names of my current amiibos:
Kirito
Asuna
Akatsuki

I have no idea what to name Robin though. I want to go with the theme of naming them after anime characters.

Call him Kamille. Because Robin's a man's name and he's a man!

[EarthBound18]

Is their any way to teach my level 50 Charizard Amiibo to preform an up throw at high percentages? He always does down throw even at high percents, and I always try to KO him with an up throw but he never seems to pick it up. Also can you teach your Amiibos different follow ups after a down throw?

 

[pupNapoleon]

I'm a bit scared to see what the amiibo launch has been like in June... Any preorders in US for Dark Pit on, or other series' amiibo?

So far no preorders for dark pit and the other series amiibo in the US as of yet. But once they are ready for preorder it will be probably get sold out in minutes and the websites will probably crash. Yep good luck.

Name Robin "Akira".

He does technically embody a monster, the fell dragon. And Akira technically turns into a monster with his supernatural powers. : 3

Greninja's a unicorn now? Good thing I picked up an extra. TRADE VALUE!

 

[Megadoomer]

I'm pretty sure any store exclusives are automatically considered unicorns, though Toys R Us does a far better job handling their exclusives than other stores. (actually getting them, limiting them to one per customer, etc.)

GameStop.ie is abysmal now. They only have stock of one Smash Amiibo...

So my extra Jigglypuff is also valuable. Though maybe not so much, there are reprint rumours around it.

Debating whether to try to trade/sell Wave IV pickups. Not sure I need Wario and Charizard, either.

I wish I had access to Ike. It'd be better than having this sea of Peaches and Luigis.
