Unlocking new in-game challenges is nice and all, but where are the Amiibo that unlock new musical numbers? They’re Callie and Marie, Splatoon‘s Squid Sisters, and they will be hitting stores on July 8.
They’re in-game TV personalities. They’re delicious-looking food. The Squid Sisters are the best thing to come out of Splatoon besides actual Splatoon, and they have earned the two-pack of toys they’re getting on July 8.
The Squid Sisters Amiibo, available in a two pack for $US24.99 ($33), unlock a series of songs that the two will perform in game. It’s song and dance downloadable content, which I’d probably be angry about if I weren’t so utterly delighted.
The Squid Sisters will be joined on shelves July 8 by recolors of the Inkling Boy and Girl figures (two of my favourites), available individually or in a three pack with an orange version of the Inkling Squid. I’d never gotten the Squid, having bought the Boy and Girl figures individually, so now’s my chance to have it without having to rebuy two of the exact same things to get a third new one.

It’s a superficial purchase, but somehow I want it.
Most reluctant of purchases.
I so freaking excited for this. I don’t need it, I NEED IT.
Totally with you buddy! Callie and Marie are just awesome.
But mostly Marie.
And Callie. =P
But especially Marie 😛
And Callie.
But just Marie. Only.
With Callie. =P
Damn you Nintendo you’re making me poor!
Speak for yourself. Where’s Cap’n Cuttlefish already?!
This guy knows what’s up.
TBH, I would like amiibo of all the shop keepers too.
Now there’s a fresh idea, 😛
Always up for more Splatoon Amiibo! Got all three of the previous ones individually and kept them boxed, then bought the 3-pack to play with! Wish my Wii U wasn’t in storage, though 🙁
Ooooh me wanty me wanty.
