Nintendo - amiibo Figure (Splatoon Inkling Squid)

Improved on the Splatoon 1 amiibo design. The purple squid uses different paints and is much taller to make a beautiful amiibo design.

Bought all 3 of the Splatoon 2 amiibos. They were a useful tool in getting an early start on the multiplayer. If you plan on sharing them, make sure you get all of the item drops before resetting them or else you will have to start all over.

I got these in recently and the first thing my girlfriend mentioned was how much better they looked than the old Splatoon Squid Amiibo (green). The paint job is a lot better quality work and the paint itself is a lot better looking. There is a lot more colors being used than the previous ones. This one in particular is actually a bit taller than the original too. I haven't used the Amiibo saving feature yet though (you can save your settings, like motion or no motion controls, sensitivity, etc to the Amiibo and quickly load it up on any system).

To any Splatoon fans and/or amiibo collectors, this is another great addition to the amiibo series. Although there is a noticeable seam on the top of the figure when looking at it from behind, it is colorful and has a fun pose; I especially like how the paint is incorporated on the base and is what holds the squid figure up. On top of that, it does provide some useful in game functionality such as gear and saving loadouts.

Complete your Splatoon 2 collection with the Inkling Squid Amiibo. This superbly-sculpted figure not only looks great on your display, but also unlocks additional items for Splatoon 2 on Nintendo Switch. Among those items: - Power Mask Mk 1 - Power Armor Mk 1, - Power Boots Mk 1 When equipped together, these items will give you the boosts of Ink Resistance Up, Ink Resistance Up, and Bomb Defense Up.

The quality of the figure is very good and adds value to an already great family game. Inkling Squid amiibo will give you the Power Armor Mk 1, Power Mask Mk 1, and Power Boots Mk 1 in Splatoon 2. When equipped you’ll receive the following abilities: Ink Resistance Up, Ink Resistance Up, and Bomb Defence Up. Great item for kids and adults.

This Amiibo unlocks particularly desirable armor in Splatoon 2 and an outfit in Mario Kart. This is more sought after than the other Splatoon 2 Amiibo releases due to that armor and/or availability. The look of it is ok but it's not one of the elite Amiibos in terms of look. The bottom of the squid is white, so it's not purple all over.

I absolutely love this amiibo. I have been a collector of them since they first released. In my opinion, they just keep getting better and better! This squid is different from the original that released. It has a different pose, and it is of much higher quality to me. I recommend this for anyone who is a collector.
