Kirby Amiibo - Japan Import (Super Smash Bros Series)

My son feel in love with Rosalina after unlocking her on Super Mario 3D World. I went to Toys R Us, Walmart, Target, Sams and local hobby shops and was not able to find her amiibo anywhere. When I was asking an employee about it at Toys R Us he informed me that one man bought all of the Rosalina amiibos and burn them due to him not liking the character. I do not know how much of that is actually true but judging by the price of some of them (especially the USA imported ones) I think I believe it! So far we have had no problems with this. The paint looks great and the stick that she is posed on is holding up well. We bought the peach super smash brothers amiibo from Walmart and it was broken the next day. So this one is definitely a better quality one. The price is a little high but for how hard it is to find them it is pretty good.

The packaging was worn and beat up. It appeared to me that this was in storage for some time and not taken care of. Thankfully, Im no box collector. The figure itself was excellent with the notable bendy sword being the only flaw.

I got my Rosalina amiibo today! Shes one of the rarest so far due to being exclusive to Target and MarioTehPlumber. The guy hates (loves) Rosalina so much, he bought 100 of these so no one else can have one. Thankfully, hes only doing it for the North American versions. The cosmic princess is pretty pricey, but thats mainly to pay off import fees, shipping, and customs. It is being brought over the Pacific Ocean to get here. Now one to the figure itself. Rosalina looks great. The more cartoony characters always seem to look better as amiibo and Rosalina is no exception. Shes also got quite some detail on her. She has a nice star pattern at the bottom of her dress. Her crown has some design on it that the Smash Bros Peach lacks. She also has purple nail polish on if you look closely. Luma looks perfect as well. The is some plastic to hold Rosalina and Luma up. Youll automatically see it on Luma. You might not even notice it on Rosalina since her dress hides it well. Rosalina has become a rare gem for amiibo hunters. Aside from Smash, she can also be used for Mario Kart 8 for a Rosalina themed racing suit and in Mario Party 10 to unlock the Rosalina board in Amiibo Party mode. If you want here for the previously mentioned reasons or just a fan of her, go ahead and buy one here (I doubt well get a restock any time soon and I dont think MarioTehPlumber wants to share.)

Got it for a Christmas gift. Son took it out of package and it doesnt work. It wont scan. VERY disappointing. UPDATE: was able to get replacement and it works fine. Moved from 1 star to 5 stars.

Works just like it should. Came in original packaging

This review is for toon link specifically, besides all this shady scalping that is happening everywhere and we have to live with it , we are in essence buying a cheap toy. First off this figure works for many games Hyrule warriors, breath of the wild, and super smash bros, That is quite a lot of games! so you are gonna have to open it collectors! (yay?) The figure looks very good which surprised me (hence the three stars). but if you notice his animation is in the jumping pose and is being hold by some transparent thing, this thing breaks very easily, so dont play with it with your kids....

As someone who loves Super Smash and playing as playing as Kirby I really wanted to find one of these amiibos, but unfortunately I waited far too long to buy one and couldnt find any Kirby amiibos. Then I noticed that there was the Japan import amiibos and learned that they were not region specific and that I could get one for roughly a normal amiibo price. I wanted to get the amiibo for use and not so much for collecting so I was happy to find out this could work, but was a little anxious to see if this would really work. Immediately after receiving my order I gave this a test and was extremely happy to see that it worked perfectly. When comparing this to a friends USA bought Kirby amiibo, there are no differences between the models. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is just looking for the character/amiibo to use. If you are collecting amiibos and want to have a US collection, this one was in Japanese (it is a Japan Import) and may not be what you are looking for.

Looks great in the collection but the prices for this one on Amazon are outrageous. Better off shopping elsewhere.

So far so good. Sealed packaging. Bran new. A Japanese import. Still great. I recommend Definitely

This is a very nice figure of a character that I like a lot.
