Just checked an online gamestore for available amiibo's. This friday it had 4 new amiibo's scheduled: Ganondorg, Dark Pit, Palutena an Zero Suit Samus. I reserved ZSS amiibo, but only can order one when one is available for me (don't know when). As the price is normal, I don't mind the wait. Now I only have to find a Toad amiibo ...

Toad Amiibos are pretty common where I am right now, just had a big restock a couple weeks ago.

With only checking known online stores, I only found Toad amiibo at Amazon. But that's almost triple the 'normal' price and I don't want it that bad. 'Normal' price is € 15.99 over here, the whooly Yoshi's are € 19.99.

I pre-ordered Zero-Suit Samus through Amazon.
I thought I wasn't going to get it because the shortages and craze maniacs around were scaring me off; also Samus in the power suit is actually all I ever asked from a Metroid figurine, it's really beautiful.
Anyway, today I checked online and Amazon is accepting pre-orders at the fair price of €14.90 so, since she's my sister and my personal hero, and the figurine is pretty sleek, I jumped in.

Not a big fan of those shoes, though : |

Yeah, that has been on my radar for quite a while but over here it''s always been ridiculously priced. Your link "inspired" me for a new search and I found something that has a similar price to that.
I'll be thinking about it in these days, but in this period I'm more about miniatures (assembling and painting) than action-fidures, plus I'm always trying to save money for musical gear, so I will probably pass.
Anyway thanks for reminding me of this one.

Got 3 so far, but only as I am taking it easy and taking the wise decision to buy Amiibo without being ripped off. Got Lucina, Inkling Girl and Yarn Yoshi. Sadly no Shulk or the rest of the FE Amiibo yet, as even with restocking there are issues here in the UK. May have a chance with Zero Suit Samus though.

Added Meta Knight, Rosalina and Ike to my list. Got Rosalina today and just missed Dedede by a minute.

Ike was the only one I paid above the regular price for, it was the cheapest I've seen for him, and he was the only one I wanted all along. I'm satisfied now with just collecting whatever Amiibo I run into.
