Charizard Amiibo - Japan Import (Super Smash Bros Series)

I got Rosetta/Roselina for a friends birthday. Shes a huge fan of Roselina, and shes been searching for this one for ages. I understand the whole controversy with Amiibo scalpers and re-sellers, but my review is only for the item sold. And I couldnt be happier with this. Especially when searching for the English release of Roselina, I could be expected to pay at least twice the amount I paid for her here... (as you might know, these are not region-locked so while they come from Japan, theyre just as compatible with the English games, should you desire, the only difference is the writing on the box is in Japanese). The box is in great condition, especially for an import item, and I cant really see any scuffs on it as well. While Im not taking her out of the box, as this is a gift, I cant notice anything wrong with the figure itself. No bending in her wand (which honestly I was a little worried about seeing some other reviewed on figures with delicate-looking pieces like wands/swords). Shes in great shape. The details on the figurine are really nice. I like the extra touches, like the metallic surfaces on her wand/crown are actually in metallic paint that has some shine to it, rather than just yellow/grey to represent gold/silver. Little touches like that make this look like a much higher quality model. Im really impressed with the details on her face, namely her showing eye (since the other is covered by her bangs). Theres even a little gradient in the blues on her pupil, which is really impressive for a figure thats only a few inches high! The only real nitpick I can find is that I wish they showed that same attention to detail on her fingernails (painted purple). Its a little inconsistent in the size of the dots, some are larger than others. But I cant complain too much on that, its just a small detail I noticed. Im also super pleased with how fast the shipping was on this! Thanks a lot for an easy transaction. And thanks for helping me find the perfect gift for a friend!

Love the art work and detail

Zero Suit Samus is my housemates favorite hero to use in Smash... hard to beat, and so cute!

Shes beautiful and cuts a striking figure. There is a lot of detail involved although I did find it kind of funny how large the feet are. I had to get her to add to my husbands Metroid collection. I took one star off because I bought this online not knowing she is available in stores locally for a much lower price. So maybe shop around at your local game store or grocery big box store before buying online and being taken advantage of with the price gouging. I did get the import version and from what Ive seen in stores locally the regular one looks exactly the same.

Really nicely packaged the packaging was in good condition and no signs of any damage.

Yes, there is not much to say to an Amibo. It does its job. But my husband had a blast using this on the wii U training his favorite character on Smash Brothers. It seemed to have excited him a lot. Packaging is in Japanese so he made me (I am Japanese) translate everything on it. But there is nothing important on there that you need to be able to understand. Thank you Amazon for allowing my husband to order Ness Amibo from Japan. He was fussing for a while that he missed the chance to get it when it was sold in U.S.

Hes standing tall and proud with all his other sword guy friends up there (mostly Links but eh...) Reads with zero issue in all my games. Had no remorse pulling him from the box cause the corners and stuff were a little bent up anyway. Had to straighten out his sword a bit but what else can you expect from a thin piece of flexible plastic. Im completely happy with this purchase.

Let me tell you, finding this Pit amiibo for under $60 has been an absolute nightmare! My niece has wanted Pit since before Christmas but they were ungodly expensive everywhere we looked. But at long last I was finally able to order her one for a reasonable price! Why they all of a sudden dropped in price I do not know, but Im not going to question it! My package came in the mail very quickly after I placed my order and the box arrived undamaged. While it was a Japanese version I received, my niece actually prefers it that way so it works for me! I cant wait until I can actually give her this Pit amiibo. Im also happy that my months of Internet searching are finally over!

It worked great I got it for my brother and he loved it

Product works great, and great price as well. Package arrived with no padding inside so product was shaken up a bit, no damage done thankfully. Second package Ive gotten from Amazon in the last couple weeks that had no bubble wrap inside. Disappointing. Other than that product itself was fine.
