Thanks!
I actually collect amiibos. But this will be the first time where I'll buy amiibos not because of my collector's craze, but simply because I feel pressured into buying to unlock that content. And that just feels wrong.

Is this supposed to be a space pirate in this animation? It's sometimes difficult to tell.
>>
>>388943903
Yeah, it's supposed to be one of those TUBULAR Space Pirates from the comics.
>>
>>388943609
Yup, I can guarantee that Metroid 6 will release a lot sooner after Metroid 5 than Metroid 5 after Fusion, this is a new Metroid resonance.

>>388942378
Fun fact. When I first saw the Samus returns Amiibo, I thought they looked so good I considered buying amiibo for the first time. They didn't tell yet what they were supposed to do, but I didn't care. They really looked good.
But then I learned it unlocked on-disk content and somehow, that make me want to buy them less, for whatever absurd reason I can't rationalize.
I have come to some guideline of what kidof interrection I find acceptable on an amiibo
If it's an helper that make the game easier, then I am okay with it for non-multiplayer games. It's like putting casual behind a pay-wall.
If it's to exploit some sort of physical interaction tahat make the content useless and worthless without the physical interaction, I can accept it.
I can even accept unlocking skin that don't affect the gameplay, as I have always been okay with that for DLC.
But on-disc bonus content is a big no.
Those Amiibo would have been perfect if they just had those reserve tanks they already have and no more.
And yet, I still can't warp my mind around the fact that I am pissed at figure that I wanted to buy in the first place, after learning that it actually offer more than what I originally thought it had.

>>388933163
Goddamn it, that's a good looking Samus.

As a big Metroid fan, I'm happy to see some merchandise appear in stores. But after Nintendo has neglected Metroid fans for about a decade, they now have all this expensive stuff fans are supposed to buy: The Legacy edition, the NEW 3DS Samus design, the amiibo-two-pack...
I got this bad girl (pic related) pre-ordered, so I will have something much, much nicer standing than those amiibos standing on my desk soon.
I wish Nintendo went with their original pitch for amiibos, where they stated amiibos would not unlock content, but simply functionality. I think Smash Brothers pulled that off quite well. But every other game I personally know of completely failed. And Samus Returns is unfortunately one of the more offensive examples.

What I want to know is where can I get my hand on this old figure featured in the old japanese commercial for the OG Metroid 2.
It look so good for it's time, I can't believe I didn't knew about it before.

I'm pretty sure that figure was custom made for the trailer. I don't think they just took some retail action figure for their stop-motion-animation. Which unfortunately probably means it's either kaputt oder has been lost in some unknown warehouse, Indiana Jones-style.
The previous figma with the Other M design had some similarities to the figure from the commercial. Maybe that'd be something for you?
Then there are these, which aren't great, but so cheap it kinda doesn't matter:

And last but not least, we got this beauty, which comes very close to the figure from the commercial:
