This is a neat figure, over all. I'm a little disappointed there's no compatibility with the Pikmin 3 game, but it can still be used with several others. The game it has the most functionality with is Super Smash Bros. If you love the Pikmin games as I do, though, then this is a good figure to get. The only thing I noticed is that the helmet has a very obvious seam down the middle. Perhaps they could've made the seam a bit smaller, or sealed it with a different method? I'm not sure, but it's a minor thing anyway. I like that each of the 3 Pikmin featured has a different blossom state (bud, leaf, flower)!

The Olimar amiibo is really well done - lots of detail, and the inclusion of all three Pikmin really make it stand out. How much you'll use it depends on the Nintendo games you play (and whether or not the figure is compatible with them) but it's nice to have another addition to the growing amiibo lineup.
