Five Stars

Package was intact and works like a charm! One of the smallest of the Zelda Amiibos, It's rare drop in Zelda Breath of the Wild is the Twilight Bow (Princess Zelda's bow from Twilight Princess that shoots infinite arrows). It also has a chance of dropping other various bows.

Pit Is Super Kawaii (Cute)

I got my Pit amiibo used. Amiibo figures are region free. They are sharable and re sellable. What I mean is you can still use an old figure as long as the NFC chip inside isn't damaged. When I scanned Pit his original owner's data was still on the figure. The only parts I changed was the owner name and the figure's nickname. Cute. He looks just like his model from Kid Icarus Uprising. I don't have Smash Bros but I do have other games that are compatible with amiibo. Pit worked fine with them. Legend of Zelda Breath of The Wild Mega Man 11 Style Savvy Fashion Forward Style Savvy Stlying Star. I don't have a Wii U but I have a Switch and a *new* 3ds XL. Pit worked fine with them.

Suitable for collectors

Quite frankly, I haven't even used it yet on my copy of Smash, so I won't even talk about the game aspects of this. I like to collect figures such as Nendoroid and Cu-Poche and I'd be comfortable stating that if someone were to buy this for the figure alone, the price is quite worth it. It may not be up to the same level as the Good Smile stuff, but then again, at one-third to one-fifth of the cost, I wouldn't expect the same feature set that other collectible figures have (no interchangeable parts, etc). And for $13, it's of higher quality than any capsule toy you'd collect at the same price. It is not very heavy, but the build quality is gret, it feels solid and has a very nice paint job. It would be quite at home sitting on my Nendo display shelf. I've also picked up Link, and undoubtedly will pick up a few more.

Legendary Epona Horse is back in BOTW!!!!

This beautiful Amiibo adds the legendary Epona horse into the Zelda Breath of the Wild (BOTW) Nintendo Switch game. All Stats on Epona are at 4 stars, with gentle temperament. Can't change the saddle or bridle on this horse, unlike other horses in the game (so unable to use the ancient saddle which summons the horse at any time in any place). Nevertheless this is a horse that is worth having in the game, simply for its great beauty and reputation, as well as pretty good stats. If you do get separated from your horse simply fast travel to any stable and pick it up there. When using the Amiibo for the first time, make sure you are at (or close) to a stable. Epona horse will spawn at once when the Amiibo is first used (hold the Amiibo close to the Switch's right control button). Take Epona to the stable and register the horse immediately, so now you own her in the game permanently. After this initial spawn you can use the Amiibo daily and it offers a variety of treasures, including food and one treasure chest, which contains ammo or rare twilight armor. This armor can be upgraded at the Great Fairy sites hidden around Hyrule. Pretty awesome!

LOZ amiibos and Breath of the Wild Functions.

Legend of Zelda amiibos are getting expensive I mean REALLY expensive. So you need to ask yourself do you really want it on your shelf and the Breath of the Wild Functions each provides? I want to help you answer that. Main in game functions I will mention is Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. (Though keep in mind some work with Smash, Twilight Princess HD, and Hyrule Warriors.) They will be organized into groups by their main drop. *Sword Group* - Travelors sword - Royal Sword and elemental arrows. (Smash Link/TP Link) The 2 work the same. Unique set: Twilight Princess skins. Epona appears on 1st scan. She's a contender for best horse. She sprints for more strides and the gentle temperament won't throw you off. Extras:Produce,Elemental arrows, shields Smash Link is a poor quality figurine while TP Link is one of the highest. (Skyward Sword Link) Unique: Skward Sword skins Goddess Sword. Forgettable Extras: rupees,shields High quality figurine (Breath of the Wild Link Rider) Unique: special horse saddle Extras:Produce High detail figurine. (8-bit Link) Unique:Legend of Zelda skins Sword. Nothing to go out of your way to aquire. Extras: Rupees,shields For the nostaligia collector. (Smash Toon Link/LOZ 30 anniversary Toon Link) Unique: Windwaker skins Seabreeze boomerang. I personally use boomerangs as melee weapons in Breath. The jury's out on this one. Extras:Fish Figures are good quality. *Bow Group* Travelors bow-royal bow (Smash Princess Zelda) Unique: Twilight Bow. This one rocks. Best bow by range. Literal sniper. Uses light arrows not your arrow supply. Has around a hundred shots before it goes. Not the most powerful but that range is second to none. Extras:gems, flowers, herbs Good quality figurine. Dress well done (Breath of the Wild Archer Link) Unique: none. May drop Falcon Bow but that's not exclusive Extras: elemental arrors, meat, fish Very High quality figurine. *Shield Group* Travelors shield-royal shield (Too Zelda) Unique: Heros Shield. Rendered useless by Hylian Shield. Extras: herbs, flowers, gems Figurine is ok it's good for what it is depicting (Breath of the Wild Zelda) Unique: none, source for radiant shield. Rendered pointless by Hylian Shield. Extras:herbs, flowers, gems Good figurine hard to find. *2 Handed Sword Group* Travelors claymore- Royal claymore (OoT Link) Unique: OoT skins, Biggoron sword. Not worth the trouble to get. Extras: meat, elemental arrows Figurine based on OoT artwork ok not great eyes look weird. (Smash Ganondorf) Unique: Sword of the Six Sages. Not worth it to go out of your way. Extras: rupees, gems, rare monster parts (unique to this Amiibo but you can farm all monster parts in game) Great quality figurine. Only Ganon we have so far for collectors. One of the more affordable amiibos. (Majora's Mask Link) Unique: Fierce Deity skins and sword. Functions the same as the in game barbarian set. Looks cooler but like barbarian set requires lyanel farming to upgrade. Extras: produce, elemental arrows High quality figurine. This one is expensive and getting worse...High demand by Zelda collectors. *Unique* they are all different. (Breath of the Wild Guardian) Unique: Source of guardian - guardian ++ equipment weapons and shields. Source of ancient and giant ancient (rare) cores. Source of ancient arrows. Source of ancient parts. This is the best Amiibo for in game use. If you only get one this is the one to get. Extras: gems Highest quality figure. Top 5 of best Amiibo design. Looks great. Expensive and getting worse. Approaching $50... (Breath of the Wild Bokoblin) Unique:none. In game use for this guy is at zero. Boko weapons are everywhere in game as is meat. If I had him I wouldn't bother to scan him. High quality figurine. Fairly rare in stores. (Smash Sheik) Unique: sheik's mask. Essentially an additional head skin working in the stealth clothes set. Source of Sheika weapons (outclassed by midgame) and elemental arrows. Extras: mushrooms *Champions Ballad set* All 4 may drop diamonds. Each has a unique helmet that pairs with the ancient armor set and each weapon drops corresponds to their race. Figures are of the highest quality. They are still in stores but buy fast. Happy Hunting.

Great detail. Cool figure to have.

I actually bought this and the other Amiibo figures to just have them as figurines, since i don't have a WiiU yet. So this review won't be based on their functionality as useable figures. I hope to get a WiiU soon, since Smash is my absolute favorite game. Design and detail on the Fox figure are great. Color is vibrant. Fox has a lot of little details that they put their time into. His boots have every buckle, jacket has the zipper, and even the green shirt under the jacket shows detail. He has the targeting scanner on his eye and even his reflector on his belt. Also, i really like the running pose he is in. Good representation of his speed. I like having it just to be used as a figurine until i get the game. I would recommend this if either you have Smash for the WiiU or if you are just a fan and want to have a collection of your favorite characters.

My daughter LOVES this

Sonic has been around for a LONG time, but never seems to go out of style. My 9 year old daughter asked for this and she absolutely adores it. The quality is better than the vast majority of these kinds of things, but that was reflected in the price as well. Premium quality comes at a price- but the smile of my little girl is priceless. If you have a kid (or adult) who is a big Sonic fan, this will not disappoint.

It was worth the wait

This thing is so good I’d wait 30 more years for the 60th anniversary edition. I didn’t open mine so I’m not sure the games it works with, just added it to my collection. It looks great though. My son gets confused over why we can’t open it, I told him he could have it when I died and that started a whole other mess that ended up with him getting his own. A must have. Order two if you plan on telling your kids you’ll die one day.

Link!

Our first amiibo that was bought right before breath of wild came out. Could not be happier with purchase. Pros: Gives great items in game Looks nice. Its link! Is my review missing something? I think that honest, well thought out reviews sometimes are forced to take the place of personal experience while online shopping. I've always appreciated the help I've received from reviews and work hard to return the favor as best as I can. I hope you found this review helpful and if there was anything you thought was lacking or unclear leave a comment and I'll do what I can to address it.
