Green Yarn Yoshi Amiibo - Japan Import (Yoshis Woolly World Series)

Possibly the cutest amiibo there ever has been or ever will be.

He is indeed very wooly. The quality is there and I didnt pay that much over the retail price (only 4 or 3 dollars more)

I imported this from Japan via Amazon Marketplace before Yoshis Woolly World and the corresponding amiibo arrive in the US. For those curious about the height of the figure/plush, it stands about 3 inches tall. The detail of the amiibo is astounding. The eyes, rather than being painted on, are embroidered. It has a cute little tushtag that reads Yoshi in the color matching the body (so mine was blue). There also a loop on the Yarn Yoshis head, presumably to slip a ball-chain through (or, I suppose, a really thin carabiner). The NFC chip is housed on the bottom of the plush within a little patch the has the same amiibo mark and Nintendo logo as the traditional amiibo. The quality of the plush, on the whole, is just fine. The seams look fine and the embroidery around the eyes is nice and clean. My one minor issue is that stitching around Yoshis back-shell puckers a little bit at the bottom edges but I dont think that effects the integrity of the plush at all.

Im excited to see how nasty these things look after my kids get done playing with them in a few months.

This is my sons favorite play toy! Had to buy another one so the toy could have a friend! Well made for the material it is.

The team is on!! Theyre so cute and so handy. I take yoshi with me while Im traveling, so much fun.

So adorable and the feeling of the yarn feels good. I am very satisfied with this!

YOSH!

The yarn Yoshi amiibo are meant to work with Yoshis Woolly World for Wii U, and while the game is not out yet in the USA (I plan to get it day 1), I decided to import both the Pink and Blue Yoshis to avoid attempting to get them in store. The yarn amiibo are very interesting, and are quite cute. Theyre much slouchier in real life than they are in the prototype photo, and definitely smaller than you would expect them to be. They are standard amiibo size, but it was still a surprise to see them fit neatly in the palm of your hand. Theyre a woolly, yarn texture and pretty fun to hold and squish. The materials that the Yoshis are made of is not hand knitted, but if you have ever knit or crochet you should be able to tell that from the photos. They are machine knit fabric, sewn like a stuffed animal. Obviously this is the easy production way to go, and it doesnt change how I feel about the toy, but I figured Id throw that knowledge out there to everyone. Over all, I quite like the Woolly amiibo, and plan to get Green with the game. Theyre very cute next to the other amiibo, making a unique part of my few that Ive collected.

Fast and got on time as they promised. Good quality and as it showen in the picture thats my opinion and my review
