One of the coolest things about Amiibos is that they allow your favorite characters to come to life (made of plastic, no less) in both your game and to display on your shelf. Nintendo has really captured the spirit of the "Metroid" series by offering this 2-pack of Amiibos that includes main protagonist "Samus Aran" in her classic "Metroid II: Return Of Samus" crouching pose (from the cover of the original GameBoy version of the game and the "Baby Metroid" from "Super Metroid" posed in the way that it has "broken" out of it's containment tube. Now, the scale of the figures may not be correct, especially when you consider that the Baby Metroid is supposed to be around the size of Samus' Morph Ball form (think the size of a regular basketball), while Samus herself is as big as the Baby Metroid, at least for her Amiibo counterpart. Aside from those details, the figurines are fantastically detailed and truly capture the essence of the "Metroid" universe in general. If you are a fan of the "Metroid" series, you owe it to yourself to get this set of Amiibos! They can also be used to unlock certain things (in-game) for the 3DS game "Metroid: Samus Returns" if you have a New Nintendo 3DS/XL or an original Nintendo 3DS/XL, 2DS/XL with the separate NFC reader.
