I Am Master Chief and Olimar Amiibo

Firstly, I am Master Chief. By that I mean we are the same age. I heard on IGN's Podcast Unlocked someone casually say that MC was 48. My eyes widened because I just turned that age a week ago. I didn't just go on the podcaster's comment though, I fact checked it on the Halo Wikia page and sure enough, in Halo 5, he is indeed 48. I just hope he isn't killed off in Halo 5. I'd feel a little weird about that. In any case, now I know what I'm going to be for Halloween.

Secondly, this:

                             IGN's Nintendo Voice Chat on my iPod and Olimar Amiibo

I got the Olimar Amiibo. I also got to hold the new Yoshi's Wooly World Amiibo and boy it is adorable! It's actually made of yarn, or something close to it. I didn't expect that. It comes in Pink, Blue and Green. Green only comes with the game however. I almost bought one. They are a few dollars more than the regular Amiibo but it's probably worth it. I also saw the Chibi Robo Amiibo. You can only get that if you buy the game though. I was again tempted. But, I stuck with Olimar and his Pikmin because I love, love, love PIkmin. Which reminds me, I need a Wii-U for Pikmin 3. Boy I'm behind the times.

So this is Master Chief signing off. Now. . . finish this fight.

I believe my parents are 63 and 65 respectively. Iam 25. Wonder what characters have ages matching ours. 

How old is Captain Olimar anyway? Wonder if there's a wiki entry mentioning it. Gonna say what Cary usually does though, I'm too lazy to look that up on my own.

I looked on the Pikmin Wiki and can't find any reference to Captain Olimar's age. He does seem middle-aged though with his nearly bald head and his captaincy being his second job (He was a repair man first).

Love that Olimar Amiibo.

He's got three pikmin with him: red, blue and the yellow one, I just noticed, is behind him.

I saw him in the store today and I also saw the 8 bit Mario. Very tempted but I really have no reason to buy them.

They tried to get me to buy others, but I just wanted Olimar. It's just fun to look at.

I got ALL the Yarn Yoshi Amiibos.  I'm a freak.  I also have the Chibi Robo Amiibo.  Chibi Robo blog coming soon.

Those Yoshi amiibos were the cutest little things! Lucky you.

what would be worse is if you got killed off in the new Halo game, but Master Chief survived.  Better watch out for the Flood, man!  

I'm gonna buy some amiibo someday.

A good spooky horror take-off on Halo would be Master Chief's Mjolinar armor inhabited by nothing but a dead body and Cortana's rampant AI keeping it moving around. Oo, I'm scaring myself now. 

I don't even have any actual use for the Olimar amiibo yet, but it's a nice statue next to my pc right now.

I've heard Nintendo is making more of them this time. At least that's what I heard but the Gamestopers were trying to convince me I should get one before they are gone. I just wanted Olimar.

I saw those Yoshi Amiibos and thought about buying them just to have, but I can't pick up another thing to collect.

I was talking to the Gamestoper about how the Skylanders figures have taken a lot more store space over time and he asked me if I was getting into them. I said, "oh heck no!" What I meant by that was that I really want to but I can't get carried away with it. It's so easy with so many figures for that franchise, and I love the art style of them too. I could serious get crazy with that. I am going to get Skylanders at some point, but I'm going to be real careful with how many figures I get. I'm going to be very picky about them. I'm that way about amiibos right now. I only got the one I've been thinking about for months.
