> 3 dayThe 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.

Greater than one weekPit has been a nightmare trying to find a good price for. Him, as well as the Holy Trinity, Captain Falcon, and Little Mac, went for absurd 60+ prices. I think Japan may have got a restock in most of these guys since they (except for Marth) go for $20 now. I got him in a week since the guy I bought him from had it in an Amazon warehouse and Amazon sent it to me. Though collectors may want to be careful as the box was pretty beat up, although the figure itself was fine. I didnt care too much since I was going to open him up anyway. As for the figure, he looks great. His face isnt derpy and his bow isnt bent. I like the detail on his wings and tunic as well as the other accessories he has. The stand doesnt bother me much. Although its colored, the color makes sense (its a sky blue color). He is kind of flying off the ground with his pose. It reminds me of Good Smiles Figma of him. I played and enjoyed Kid Icarus Uprising. Yes the gameplay was pretty awkward, but the characters and humor is what drove me to play the game. Although Pit wasnt my favorite in the cast (its a three-way tie between Palutena, Viridi, and Hades), its still nice to have him, especially on how rare he is. Uprising was great, and if you are a Kid Icarus fan and cant get a Pit Figma (which is almost $200), this is a much less expensive, but just as high quality alternative.

> 3 dayI only buy the amiibo of the characters I personally like. Samus is one of them and it’s a great amiibo just very small in size compared to the splatoon amiibos I got. But still love it none the less

> 3 dayGreat looking amiibo. It came in the mail well before I expected it to. Not really the way to go if youre a collector since the box is kinda beat up. However, its a cool plus just because its from Japan and thats always cool. Customer service was also really great with a good deal and a nice note in it as well. Detail is amazing on the figure. Arrived without any defects or anything. Got it for my friend for his birthday and Im sure he will love it.

Greater than one weekThe item was exactly what I was expecting, Zero Suit Samus Amiibo (Japanese version). There are slight differences in the coloration between the NA & JPN versions, nothing too dramatic, and barely noticeable, but the JPN Amiibo also feel like theyre made differently, slightly better build. In the end, theyre Amiibo, and all are region-free, so you can use your JPN Amiibo in NA nintendo systems. My only *concern* is the way amazon ships these. Im not a collector, I opened up my Amiibo packaging so I can display the actual Amiibo. But amazon bent the top part of the cardboard, where the peg hook hole is located, to make the item fit in the box. If I was a collector, I would be upset. This is in no way a reflection on the seller, just the way Amazon shipped my package. Do they do this every time? I dont know, but it was my experience. Sorry I couldnt upload pictures, but the Amazon app kept crashing whenever I tried to do so.

> 3 dayThe amiibo works and looks great. Zero Suit Samus is not the strongest of Amiibo fighters for Smash Bros, but if well trained she can compete.

> 3 dayThe amiibo itself was in great condition. Paint is spot on, it is very well made. My only issue was that the box came in really rough condition, with the top half featuring the character art folded in half. Not a big deal if you plan to unbox your amiibo, but if you display them like we do, its a bit frustrating. A little bit of care, and it fit right in with the rest!

> 3 dayThe product quality is good. The packaging game in good shape (it is in Japanese for any collectors that may have an issue with that). The plastic is well-molded and doesnt look cheap. However, with the more detailed/complex amiibo I have seen lesser quality. The other major plus to this product was that I was able to receive it for a reasonable (non-scalper) price. Be patient and wait for it to get into a reasonable price. Dont support scalpers by paying $20+ for a product that retails for $12. If you do, youre the reason why these things sell out the second any come out.

Greater than one weekI trained her and she became power hungry, and she beat the crap out of me. Only because I dont main ZSS, but when I switched to my main she got destroyed... until I powered her up with spirits. If you want a ZSS Amiibo and cant find a cheaper one anywhere else this is the place to get one, for sure.

> 3 dayI 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.)
