The Breath of the Wild Amiibo were also $16. I'm not certain why they're more expensive, but it might be because they're higher quality. Because some earlier Amiibo aren't of the highest quality...
If the Ridley amiibo were made back during the initial Wave 1, we'd have Rudkey, Ridley's rude twin who flips everyone off in stores!The Breath of the Wild Amiibo were also $16.

And compare the Splatoon 1 squid Amiibo with the Splatoon 2 one.
So Amiibo have only gotten better in terms of quality. It makes sense that some of them would be a few dollars more expensive. And if I have to pay $3 for the difference between Marth and Merth, that's a fair trade. I don't want my Ridley Amiibo to be a Roodley.
A month later and I still can't believe he actually go in. Time to celebrate!#SmashBrosUltimate #Ridley pic.twitter.com/R8ueFVGDeX

Great piece of art SchAlternate! It still is hard to grasp that Ridley finally got in after all these years. He is one of the most talked about characters (if not the most) during speculation of Smash 4 and Brawl perhaps even the Melee days. I was looking back at the old thread at some of the posts there and came across one of my earlier posts, "With all the hate Ridley is getting from detractors around the web, his potential confirmation to playable character will feel alot more satisfying."
I’m not sure if I’ve said this already here, but I’m so freakin’ happy to finally see Ridley be able to potentially summon his fellow Space Pirate co-leader into the fray, laying the smackdown against their enemies. I always felt this was a missed opportunity back in SSB4.
I think Mother Brain is compensating for something, because she definitely wasn't that big in Smash 4!
She absorbed Ridley's bigness.
I need my HD Kraid...

for this pic.
That'll definitely be an Event Match if that happens.
It's not perfect, but Ultimate's doing a pretty good job of using the scaling from the original Metroid.
Still, don't remember Mother Brain being THAT big. Guess I've just got Super Metroid in mind when I think of Mother Brain's size compared to Samus.
What people don't realize is that Ridley's size has nothing to do with system limitations. If Ridley was the same size as he is now, then it would be very easy to hit him, which would then either force the developers to make him move around a lot or turn him into a complete joke.
Ah, the classic Daisy Ridley. Seems ready for Star Wars!I thought I'd share this old gem which was made for the community roster on Smashfaqs
Yes.
Might be able to jab lock into it, otherwise you'll need a shield break setup.
Heh, I never even noticed that Samus's ship flies by in the background on fire after Ridley's Final Smash. Nice touch.
I don't really get why the opponent is spiked in the middle of the stage when the attack is done, though. Is it to simulate falling from space?
My best guess is that it's to ensure that the attack only KOs above a certain percentage.
Why all cinematic FS's don't just auto-KO every character hit is beyond me. It's not like they need to be balanced. Nobody is like "Oh dude that character's pretty ****ty but it's made up for by a great Final Smash!"
Because, in casual play (the only place where Smash Ball is enabled, anyways), they'd be broken otherwise. Take someone's stock, grab the Smash ball, and then you could KO them again at 0%.
As much as I'd love for Ridley to have an even more powerful Final Smash, imagine auto-KOing three characters who got trapped in his attack. That's ridiculously OP in casual play.
