It was up on Amazon for a bit and sold out. Mario is exclusive to the MP10 bundle available on WalMart right now. Rest have not gone up yet.
Thought it was just a timed exclusive to the MP10 bundle, something like 2-3 weeks exclusive to the bundle before getting a regular release.

Who knows. Considering the limited quantities that nintendo is pushing to the market.... they may have scrapped plans to release it separately.

Wouldn't put it past Nintendo to change their minds....

Felt like this comic did a great job at explaining the recent strategy big N has seem to taken recently.

Nothing I find to interesting. Out of all the posable repaints, this one is the most boring type.

Like the unpainted Joyride Link and Sonic figures.

AmiAmi has the Mario set for $10 each, they are a good site, I got some other things from them.

Also they are on US Gamestop.

They somewhat are, the Nintendo site has a list of Amiibos that were manufactured, for some quality approval thing, and they were up for a little bit.

thanks larry i got the toad amiibo. I plan on fully completing my collection of smash bros amiibos but i think i will only collect other amiibos if they are of characters not already in the smash bros set, seeing as they all do the same thing.
