\"AMIIBO_LOGO\"<\/a>Here\u2019s another blog where I show off my Amiibo figure collection additions. This time we have the Classic 3-Pack, a couple of Amiibo figures included in recent games, and some exclusives I thought I wouldn\u2019t be able to get!\u00a0 So let\u2019s check them out!<\/p>\n

Classic 3-Pack<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first is the Classic 3-Pack. This set features three characters in Smash Bros. that were from the early NES days and prior.\u00a0 We have R.O.B. the Robot, Mr. Game & Watch, and the Duck Hunt Dog.\u00a0 Here they are still in the packaging.\u00a0 As of this writing, I can still find these fairly plentiful in stores, so they\u2019re not rare yet or anything.<\/p>\n

\"CLASSIC1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here they are out of the packaging. I think one of the reasons why they put this in a 3-pack was so they could include the extra Mr. Game & Watch poses.\u00a0 You see, Mr. Game & Watch is just a flat piece, so I guess Nintendo thought we should get more bang for our buck by adding three extra poses that you can easily snap into place on the Game & Watch Amiibo base.\u00a0 I guess that\u2019s kind of neat.\u00a0 Each extra piece is under one of the Amiibo figures in the packaging.\u00a0 There is the parachute, Judge Hammer, and bell piece.<\/p>\n

\"CLASSIC2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recently Nintendo released a new Chibi-Robo game, and this one is a 2-D platformer! I wrote about the Chibi-Robo games in a blog a while back, too.\u00a0 You could get a version of the game that comes with a Chibi-Robo Amiibo, and when you scan it in, you can do various things.\u00a0 You can change into Super Chibi-Robo in the game, which I haven\u2019t tried yet as of this writing. \u00a0You can also save your high scores to the Amiibo figure and level it up, and open up a second floor of your Chibi-House in the game that lets you purchases little figurines.\u00a0 Here is what it looks like in the box:<\/p>\n

\"CHIBI1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When you take it out of the box, it\u2019s packaged almost like any other Amiibo figure, except the top part is cut off a bit.<\/p>\n

\"CHIBI2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here he is out of the box. He\u2019s almost to scale on the actual size of Chibi-Robo, too!\u00a0 He\u2019s also very metallic and shiny.\u00a0 And don\u2019t worry, parents, you can\u2019t actually plug him into an outlet.\u00a0 The notches are too wide to fit.\u00a0 I was worried about that, too, when I first saw the figure.<\/p>\n

\"CHIBI3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yoshi\u2019s Woolly World<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a Wii U 2-D platformer and it is GREAT! It\u2019s what Yoshi\u2019s Story and Yoshi\u2019s New Island should\u2019ve been.\u00a0 The game\u2019s graphics make everything look like yarn, and it has some really creative designs and gameplay mechanics.\u00a0 I like the crab enemies made out of a change purse and pinking shear claws.\u00a0 Anyway, Nintendo also made some Yarn Yoshi Amiibo figures to go with the game, and they are so adorable!\u00a0 I got all three colors.\u00a0 Here they are in their packaging.<\/p>\n

\"YOSHI1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here they are in the palm of my hand. They\u2019re going to take over the world with their cuteness!<\/p>\n

\"YOSHI2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Exclusives<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recently my friend at work was telling me that Best Buy got a new batch of Amiibos, and some were former store exclusives at other outlets! I couldn\u2019t get to the Best Buy myself, but luckily my friend picked them up for me!\u00a0 There\u2019s the Pokemon Greninja and Lucario, and Dark Pit.\u00a0 Here they are in the packages.<\/p>\n

\"EXCLUSIVE1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here they are out of the box. Now all I\u2019m missing is Robin, Ness, and the alternate color blocky Mario Amiibo.<\/p>\n

\"EXCLUSIVE2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And that\u2019s all for now! By the way, I have an extra Bowser Jr. and Japan Import Zero Suit Samus still in the boxes if anyone wants to trade.\u00a0 I also have an extra Animal Crossing Limberg card, too.\u00a0 Later!\u00a0 –Cary<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
