Earlier this year Nintendo released the Gold Mario amiibo which sold out instanly around the World. Now Nintendo have announced the Silver Edition Mario amiibo which will be on sale nationwide (US) for $12.99.
What could be possibly be next? Bronze? Platinum edition!?

As with the other Mario amiibo figures that have already launched, the Mario - Silver Edition amiibo will have the same functionality and work with all games that are compatible with Mario amiibo. For a full list of compatible games, visit http://www.nintendo.com/amiibo/compatibility

Plus, his hair is brown not black like the reprint has.

Hate it.
The silver on it looks cheap and ugly

So, Nintendo Australia confirmed both Gold and Silver Mario for May 30th in Australia and New Zealand. Silver is EB exclusive and Gold is Target exclusive. The only Target in New Zealand is a furniture store so I asked EB since they usually get store exclusives and they have silver but no gold, then I asked JB HiFi since they've previously done some of the Pokémon Mystery Gifts and they reckon it's an EB exclusive. I've also contacted other electronic stores that stock Nintendo products and so far one of them has emailed back saying they do not stock amiibo at all and I'm waiting for other stores to get back to me. I've even contacted Target furniture just for good measure.

Once I get the rest of my emails answered I'm gonna write to video game media about how Nintendo Australia has a bad habit of saying things that aren't true. I was going to write to Nintendo Australia but they still don't have a contact email.

Hate this retailer exclusive bs. Just release it on every single store if possible.

I guess I can expect to see Gold Mario eventually being released in Europe/UK. Yay! I can't believe there's numbskulls willing to pay £60 for a spray painted normal Mario amiibo in gold. lol

Wow the new one looks like an improvement! Solely that the stand of the sword is black than gold/yellow.

Behold it's Frankillager!

If it wasn't for the black hair and big forehead, it would actually be closer to the game version.

Same functionality, but in MP10 it's pre-loaded with a silver coin. So not identical.

 

[Yumi]

WHY?

Yeah!

Why?

I don't see this appealing to me.

So did anyone order from Walmart today? Anyone get more than one?

Just got my Silver Mario today. Disappointed Nintendo Australia lied about the Gold Mario coming to New Zealand though.

 

[WiiCube_2013]

Saw it on Amazon.com for $12.99 but didn't bother ordering because it's not the one I want anyway.

It seems like Silver Mario is much more plentiful that the Gold Marios, they even sell for more on Amazon. Do you think the Silver ones will go up in value at all?

Considering my local frys had TONS of wave 4 amiibo (they were sold out of Lucina and Robin) an hour after opening i'm going to assume it's going to be common.

It will take longer but they will. There were pre orders on eBay that sold for 60 dollars. It's still a limited release

Damn, I better buy as many as I see then... There were 3 when I was at gamestop, but I only bought one... Shame on me.
