Title: NWR's Top Ten Least Desirable Amiibo Figurines
Post by: Halbred on July 01, 2014, 05:38:00 PM

Collectors beware.

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/feature/37975/nwrs-top-ten-least-desirable-amiibo-figurines







10. Vanillish

The most intellectually bankrupt Pokémon doesn't deserve a figure.



9. Monita

Because nobody will know who she is, even if they own Nintendo Land.



8. Ice Man from Mega Man

He's less "threatening" and more "adorable."



7. Morph Ball Samus

Collectors can look forward to a new Amiibo for ALL THE VARIATIONS.



6. That Snot-Nosed Kid from Wind Waker

Kid, get a goddamn Kleenex.



5. The Amazing Mirror

Not the boss--just the mirrors circling him.



4. Candy Kong

OH THE CHIMPMANITY!



3. N64-era Great Fairy

Nice stalactites, ma'am.



2. Kevin Keene’s dog, Duke

You didn't even remember he had a dog.



1. Reggie as a Purple Pikmin

He'll haunt your nightmares.

NWR's Top Ten Least Desirable Articles.


10. Random Top Ten lists with no context.
9. Reviews of obscure eShop games.
8. Nintendo Releases: Week "X".
7. Reviews that score 7.5
6. Comparing Wii U's sales to "X" gaming console.
5. "X" reasons why I'm not excited for "popular franchise" editorials.
4. Articles that inspire random Top Ten lists in the comment section at 2 A.M. because you can't sleep but dear God there's so much work to do tomorrow why can't I sleep?!?
3. Any news article regarding Wii Fit, Wii Music or Wii Party.
2. "X" game's use of the GamePad/3D effect is disappointing.
1. Crank Kong.

Soren, that was pretty rude. It's better to get your feelings out in less passive aggressive ways. ;)

Eh.  I thought the article was funny, but I also thought that Soren's response was a laugh.


Hot (almost certainly untrue) rumor of the moment: Club Nintendo platinum reward could be an exclusive Amiibo figure!  I'd love a Monita figure, or three mini Pikmin Amiibo statues.
 :cool;

I thought it would have been better as a weekend list instead of something for the start of the week!

Not to worry about the least imaginative Pokemon: There's no plans for a Voltorb Amiibo at this time. /bows

I think you inadvertently figured out the ten Amiibo figurines that I'd MOST desire.

Reggie as Purple Pikmin is a day one purchase, obviously.

I would absolutely buy Reggie as a purple Pikmin. I'd go as far as to buy a box set collection of all the various types of Pikmin as viewed through the lens of Reggie.

Oh good mop, I should not have clicked on this and looked at the pics. Cannot be unseen!

Wait a minute.

I definitely want a figure of the N64 Great Fairy and Monita.  Though the Great Fairy isn't exactly family friendly.

Maybe Iceman too...
Also why did you have to bring up Candy Kong?  I had blissfully forgotten what she looked like.

Voltorb is more unique than putting a face on an icecream cone.

I have doubts Halbred made this list. He's saying no to two busty-type figurines and that isn't his style.
