@gooner77 you need to have upgraded the sheikah slate. It is acts as one of the power ups to have equipped. Magnesis, stasis, amiibo etc.

Has everybody who ordered some of the Zelda amiibo the other day when they brought them back had them dispatched and/ or delivered? A friend of mine has received some of his already, including the MM Link, with all the others having been sent out already. I had just ordered the MM Link and it's still sat on "Processing". Both his and my orders all said "Estimated dispatch date: 07/07/17". I normally wouldn't worry but as I've already had this same amiibo cancelled on me before from the Nintendo UK store as well as one of the Bayonetta ones I'm starting to be a little concerned.

@MatMan562 I've not heard anything since ordering mine, although that was a Breath of the Wild Link.

Maybe they're just having to sort through a lot of orders atm then. Don't know what order they're doing them though as I know for sure that my order was placed before my friends.

I got email confirmation of dispatch on Saturday. Their emails often go to my junk folder though.

Mine should arrive tomorrow. \o/

I ordered the Link Archer figure when it went live, I also can see mine being dispatched on the 7th of July. I will wait and see. I may miss out, but fuck scalpers.

So i didnt notice this when i ordered it but i am a little disappointed with Nintendo RE the majoras mask figurine.

They gave him a goro mask... surely you would have him holding majoras?

Not sure why they went with the Goro mask, Majora's mask makes more sense and would look much better. Out of those 3 I think the Skyward Sword one is actually my favourite.

Just received the Archer Link amiibo and I'm well impressed, best one I've seen in person.

My BOTW amiibo just arrived, nicely packaged. Can't wait to scan them in later and see what crazy stuff falls from the sky.

And then scan them in Mario Kart. And then Animal Crossing. \o/

But he never actually holds Majora's Mask, does he? Nit as far as I can remember anyway. I would have liked them to include the main 3 masks from the game somehow though, maybe just had the other two on the floor or something.

I just picked up the link rider amiibo in game there. Was �14.99 but thought I better grab it when I had the chance.

I have about 80 amiibo all sealed and looking to get rid in one go as a bundle. Anyone know where would be best to try and sell? Not too keen on the eBay route yet as have had not so good experiences in the past.

Had my second order for the Majora's Mask amiibo cancelled today despite them taking my money as soon as I ordered and not even mentioning a refund in the email letting me know it's been cancelled. Sent them an email about it all.

I know it's unlikely but I don't suppose any here has one spare?

Is everyone enjoying their new amiibo? I picked up Corrin today in Game of all places. It was on the floor with the two Clouds. "Only" �14.99, the cheeky bastards.

Saw a Corrin myself at that price, planned to grab on way home if still there (as do not like Game's markups) and forgot

I like the idea of having all FE Amiibo even if I am not sure if I have any games that use them all.

Yes got both Clouds and both bayonettas today. But paying 52 quid for the privelidge makes me question my impulsiveness!

Now whether to unbox them...

Deleted user 21 July 2017 19:43:59

I can't bring myself to open most of my amiibo

cloud has replaced MM link on my desk at work.

Got my Bayonetta 1 amiibo today \o/ I've only got seven of them, I think, and two (well, three now) are still boxed. I'm not sure why, it's not like I'm going to sell them. For some reason I just never opened a couple of them (Zero Suit Samus and Wolf Link with Midna).

I mostly have RPG ones like Shulk and the FE ones. Got a cheap Falco, Peach and Pit too. Grabbed Lucas as enjoyed Mother 3 but no Ness yet. Wolf Link is my only Zelda one and I am tempted by a Chinese NFC card set though for just using in BotW as silly prices and little space to soare. I was tempted by a Bayonetta for uniqueness value (then they released two of her...).

The new Pikmin Amiibo turned up this morning and it looks brilliant. Very nice build quality and it completely trumps the Smash Bros one. It's probably my new favourite Amiibo!

Horse Link and Arrow Link from BotW are both available on the Nintendo store if people are still after them

The champ set looks great but I had to ask myself do I really need to be spending �50 on something I'll look at once or twice then throw on the shelf with all the other junk?

Passed on them for now.

Have they said if they'll be releasing them separately in the future? I'd grab Mipha, but not massively interested in the rest.

EDIT That picture of the Urbosa one is, umm, not great.

Just a heads-up: A few of the BotW amiibos are available again on the Nintendo Store - Zelda, Bokoblin and Guardian. They probably won't last long.
