Reminder: Splatoon 3's Deep Cut amiibo Are Out This Week, Will You Be Getting Them?

assuming you actually can get your hands on them, that is. either way im not all too interested but to each their own

I want them so bad especially Big Man but I don’t have much money 😭
I want a drippy big man costume but Christmas is coming…

I just want Shiver.

Waiting on mine to ship!

I don't get this toy stuff, but enjoy!

Already have all of them preordered at Gamestop! Then I’ll have to wait a while for the Noah/Mio amiibos…

@epicgamner They seem to have vastly improved the supply issues with these recently.

Just big man for me.

@Sequel well i hope they do for their old amiibo as well my unfinished zelda collection is givin me the evil eye

Pre ordered the first chance I got! I can't wait to add them to my collection!

Nope, I’m going the other way - in the last couple of weeks I’ve been streamlining my amiibo collection. Just sold a bunch of Splatoon 2 and Animal Crossing figures.

I got these guys on preorder because I always like Splatoon character designs. That being said, I haven't really been playing Splatoon 3 at all. Last time I played was for the very first "Big Run" in woohoo world, as that was the last time something new and interesting happened. ...I kinda have other priorities now, which is a bit sad, because I used to be be super into playing Splatoon a long time ago. Oh well.

Anyways, yeah, these guys are fun, so I'm getting the amiibos

@Sequel or interest is dying out because they don't really advertise them. At best there is something on the back of the game case that says amiibo compatible. But, back in the day they had big amiibo kiosks in all the stores that would say amiibo as you walked by.

Geno amiibo would have been awesome, but I'm not big into Splatoon so not really interested.

it's going to be the first round of sinterklaas presents here... (actually i want big man but my daughter will demand it)

Only Shiver, when they're available separately

Splatoon, I really wanted to love you, bought 2 and 3, but it never clicked with me. I'd rather spend my money on that lovely Ganondorf figure releases some weeks ago.

Deep Cuts is a fantastic album by The Knife. Does the Amiibo unlock more tracks? 🤪
@alienigenX Do it! It’s a good one

Aayyyyyyy!! (Yes, they are on the way.)

I didn't preorder them. I never preorder Amiibo. If I see ones that I actually want in the wild, then I'll purchase. I only buy at retail price too, no inflated prices!

I would like all three of the Splatoon 3 characters though.

I was until GameStop canceled my order at 2am.

I’m kind of tempted to buy the Big Man amiibo because of how good it looks. But we’ll see.

Got my preorders in for 2 sets the day when it went up. Hope the ship to home takes care of me better with a nice box because store pickup did me dirty with the bent backing cards on my Pyra/Mythra amiibo.

@Cheez I was about to say you probably don’t play Splatoon, because there have been literal giant amiibo figure bubble packs in the plaza of every game where your amiibo materializes in when you tap it. You can even walk behind it and see all the usual graphics (Nintendo seal, a hand holding the Mario amiibo, pics of the 3DS/WiiU and Switch, etc) and fine print.

@Spider-Kev I was until GameStop canceled my order at 2am.

What this a preorder? If not maybe ordering this late is why it got cancelled as well. Mine were preordered the day it was announced.

It was a pre-order.
Ordered them in September.
All sold out this morning so can't re-order.

@SwitchForce
See above.
LoL.
Forgot to mention you in the previous post.

@Spider-Kev If the order was placed too late the backorders probably was filled first and any late orders probably got cancelled.

I ordered when pre-orders went live. Early/mid-september

@SwitchForce

I'll get them eventually, when they come out where I live... Why does Canada always get neglected? It's going to come out like a week or so late! And they're impossible to find because not many get shipped to here anyway.

@Spider-Kev seems to be a shortage. Mine are on backorder with Target and I ordered in August. Hopefully Nintendo will restock.

@Ryu_Niiyama
Target will cancel yours.
Nintendo still hasn't restocked Pyra/Mythra

@Cheez Yes, or that. I think they kind of peaked during smash where their use case was strongest.

@Spider-Kev Nah just got the shipment notification from Target. So they were just backordered like they said. But yeah I just imported the pyra/mythra from japan. Only markup was the shipping but shipping from Japan really sucks now. So I’m used to it.

Got Shiver and Frye a day early from Best Buy and they look fantastic. Good use of air-paks in the box as well. And just got my notif for Big Man’s delivery. I’m just praying they’re not in a bubble mailer. All six could have fit in the box they sent but Big Man may have been delayed slightly on Best Buy’s end and they shipped the others first.

@Ryu_Niiyama
Nice, congrats Ms Lucky

@Spider-Kev Ms. Lucky but thanks, I hope you get yours somehow!

@Ryu_Niiyama
Fixed.
Only way I get them is with a restock.
I don't pay scalpers

@Ryu_Niiyama
Hopefully I am now Mr Lucky!
Just found some for retail online. Delivery Estimate: Nov 22nd!

I still need to find Pyra/Mythra and Mio/Noah

And to complete the collection, I need:
Smash Series:
Kirby, Wario, Diddy, Donkey and I think one other.

@Spider-Kev Congrats!!! Mine just came in today. Big man is larger than I thought. And I didn’t know Frye is called Angie as well. I like that name better.

I’m hoping Sora will be my last amiibo (I have all the smash, all the kirby, some of the animal crossing, all of the super marios except gold as I gave it to a friend, and all of the zelda and fire emblem amiibo and most of the monster hunter amiibo). Technically I need the Mio/Noah but I will just hope I find them in the store. I haven’t even opened my copy of Xenoblade 3 yet. I love them but have purchased NFC cards for the ones I use the most so I will just display the originals.

Putting up shelving for some of my amiibo today as I have several that are unopened and the rest are in a bin due to the number of them.

@Ryu_Niiyama
I stopped opening them years ago.
Once my Home Theater is finished being built, I might open them. Unless I wind up selling the entire collection.

I'd like to find the missing amiibo, but I'll settle for the XL custom cards , if I can find those.

@Spider-Kev yeah space is the bane of collectors. The rooms in my current apartment are smaller than the apartment I had in my homestate so I went from being able to display my entire gaming collection to just my modern systems and games and some statues. Everything else is in boxes. If I can ever afford a large home before I die I will have a nice game room. Unless something crazy happens I hope to keep my collection until I am very old. To fund my twilight years.

Are you building your home theater setup yourself?

@Ryu_Niiyama
I am.
It's slow going.
The whole house is being remodeled and renovated.
I need to extend out some.
Theater will be the last room.

@Spider-Kev oh that’s lovely! I wish you the best. Home ownership is becoming a pipe dream for me but I’m saving just in case. Primary focus is grad school though.

@Ryu_Niiyama
Update:
Got the three Splatoon 3 amiibo in a moment ago!

@Spider-Kev Happy Dance!

Glad it worked out!

@Ryu_Niiyama
Me too.
