My Amiibos - Mostly s5 [as of 19.02.23]

Amiibos, for all the hassle they are to get a hold of, are so much fun for me to collect. I greatly appreciate that Nintendo knows the Animal Crossing community well enough to know that we would fork out hundreds just to complete our collections of these silly little villagers. 

I don't have many Amiibos, however as I get older I not only become increasingly able to afford this Animal Crossing gold but more and more intense in my desire to scour every corner of the internet looking for the best deal I can in my plan to collect them all. Since Nintendo dropped season 5 of the AC Amiibos theres been a revival of these cards and so today I just want to outline all the cards I have at the moment, in the hopes that next time I talk of them on here I may have more.

Official Amiibos 

I have 20 official Amiibo cards - 2 from my Happy Home Designer physical copy in 2015 ( Original HHD copies in the UK included 3 Amiibos as a gift ) and 18 from the Series 5 release with 2 of them being doubles, and they go as follows:

Series 3
- #204, Pelly 
- #286, Cube
(The 3rd 2015 Amiibo was Friga who has been lost to time sadly)


Series 5
- #406, Blathers
- #409, Sable
- #411, K.K. Slider
- #416, Saharah
- #418, Gulliver
- #423, Tom Nook
- #427, Dom
- #428, Audio
- #430, Judy
- #433, Sasha (x2)
- #434, Ione
- #439, Cephalobot
- #443, Ace
- #445, Frett (x2)
- #447, Roswell

Un-Official Amiibos 

My fake Amiibos are a small section of this post, but important nonetheless as any moderately informed Animal Crossing player could tell you that those badboys with the official Nintendo seal on them are so hard to get a hold of that most Animal Crossing players are best going to Etsy or similar sites for homemade NFC cards or 'coins'. When it came to the Sanrio update of New Horizons I already had the WA ACNL update lodged in my mind from 6 years prior, and so was smart enough to buy some Sanrio coins as soon as I was able to. I bought all 6 of the Sanrio villagers: 

- s1, Rilla (Hello Kitty)
- s2, Marty (PomPomPurin)
- s3, Etoile (Kiki and Lala), my personal favourite of these villagers!
- s4, Chai (Cinnamoroll)
- s5, Chelsea (My Melody - my favourite Sanrio character)
- s6, Toby (KeroKeroKeropi)

As for the other three cards pictured - those are actually the property of my partner and are his favourite characters, but since I'm the religious Animal Crossing lover between the two of us it seems appropriate that I include these too.
- #28, Raddle
- #46, Dobie
- #289, Boomer

Un-pictured Amiibos (Honourable mentions)

Not included in the above photos are my two Amiibo figures - Isabelle (who has in the past 5 years lost her bun RIP) and her twin Digby. I acquired these to from Amiibo Festival - mandatory UGH - and they have served me fantastically. I also used to own Blathers but he was lost in a move around 6 years ago. I hope to increase my Amiibo figure collection soon as they tend to be better value for money than the cards.
