Don't.

You are a scalper too.

Normally I'd say just wait a couple months for demand to die down and stores to get restocks in, but that'll put us ass-deep into Christmas season, so just wait until New Year's I guess. Last January is when I got Smash Bros. Link for $7, and Ganondorf & Ryu each for $4.

>>4246195
I'm so happy that i got one

Exactly how is this retro? Amiibos are a recent thing.
>>
>>4246478
It's a toy related to a series that has retro games and not related to a specific non retro title.

That doesn't make it retro. Please keep this shit on >>>/v/

Toys about retro games aren't retro?

Aren't these only hard to find at release but get cheap months later?

Metroid 2 remake is not retro

>b-but it's a remake of a retro game!

So I guess we can also discuss Bionic Commando Rearmed, a 360/ps3 game, since it is also a remake of an old game?
>>
>>4246596
There was a REmake thread a few days ago and nobody gave a shit, thus, other remakes are also accepted.
>>
>>4246596
We're talking about a toy here, buster. Do you not understand the difference between a toy and a video game?
>>

It's actually still up, go talk shit over there too :

If you look closely, you'll see that the figurine features a pod resembling that seen in the opening sequence of Super Metroid. This makes it a directly referential piece of merchandise for a retro game, even if the format of the amiibo certainly isn't retro per se.

I also would have placed this one on a different board, but I wouldn't go all "REEEEEEEE NOT RETRO" over it.
>>
>>4246596
Remakes are discussed all the time newfag. That said, an amiibo, even of a retro character, is towing the not retro line.
>>
>>4246603
a toy released in 2017 that is based around a game that is not retro

wewlad

>>4246621
but only remakes of popular games

I'm 100% certain that if I made a Bionic Commando Rearmed thread, it'd 404 real fast

Look at the millennial throw his memes. The packaging doesn't mention the new game at all...

With exception to the truly limited release ones like the Zelda anniversary ones.

If you ever frequent the Nintendo thread at /toy/ they go gaga over the Metroid figures of the World of Nintendo line. They're apparently always rare and restocks sporadic at best. I wonder if some of that fervor is spilling over to the Metroid amiibo.

>>4246195
Buy it off me on Ebay. I'll give you at a discounted price, only $400. :,)

You don't. You buy NFC tags and turn them into cheap bootlegs.
