Nintendo - amiibo Figure (Super Smash Bros. Series Pit)

Very excited Nintendo decides to re-release rare Amiibos in recent months. Pit (good guy version) was one of the few I missed. So happy I waited and never gave into scalpters online. This model of Pit is beautiful. The design and artwork are incredible. If you're a Amiibo collector or use them in game for Super Smash Bros I would highly recommend adding Pit to your collection.

If you are a collector no doubt that you need this.

I visited Best Buy later in the day on the day of the major restock, and was surprised to see none on the floor. A helpful employee went in the back and got the ones I'd asked for (they just hadn't put them out yet). Pit is another amiibo I never expected to walk into a store and be able to buy. He's been rare since his release in late 2014, and so the reprint was surprising. Overall, the box art is super good. As a NIB collector, I'm super appreciative of the design that went into making a uniform and colorful series of packaging for the amiibo. As for the figure, Pit's pose is the perfect blend of motion and static to look pleasing to the eye. He's quite big too, despite not being too heavy (unlike Bowser). Definitely one I'm considering buying again to open.

This little thing has come in handy in a sitch. This one was the only one basically left on the shelf so we decided to give it a try. It was mainly used with Skyrim- you got chests dropped throughout. We didn’t know you needed to use it with the game the characters from. It worked good though!

The ability to use Amiibos in the game is really exciting and you can level up your character to LV50 that is awesome.

Kid loves the toy no known issues at this moment and time

Amiibo is the most recent product in the same vein of toys as Skylanders and Disney Infinity figures. All three brands are figures made to look like in-game characters which are then attached to a base that hides a Near Field Communication chip. Placing these figures onto a type of scanner allows the chips, and any data saved to them, to be read and used in a compatible game. This Pit amiibo has excellent features. The wings and bow are a nice touch and really make the figure unique. One of my favorites by far.

Great to use on the switch for super smash. Pit has always been a favorite of mine.
