Welcome to Week 11, the last week of our Summer of Amiibo giveaway!

If you haven't won one of the previous 11 Amiibo figures we've given away already, we have two final chances for you!

I like Captain Falcon! He just looks cool to me.

Villager

Where else am I going to get awesome Animal Crossing figures? Villager is clearly the best. However, I must admit that Shulk and Mega Man are both awesome, and Yarn Yoshi (any size or color) truly adorable.

fred13September 09, 2015

Shulk-Star of my all time favorite video game!

PindarSeptember 09, 2015

It has to be Link! The Hero if Time.

RidleySariaSeptember 09, 2015

My favorite amiibo is Wii Fit Trainer because it's just so absurd that there's a figurine of that character.

DuckySeptember 09, 2015

My favorite is Marth. His newest design is pretty cool.

fordrobSeptember 09, 2015

Toad is my favorite one actually released at this point because it carries with it the most interesting gameplay addition.
Yarn Yoshi is my favorite yet to be released for the same reason, but also because it's so damn charming.

TOPHATANT123September 09, 2015

Bestest hom hom is Shulk, herohom very cool!

mustbeburtSeptember 09, 2015

My favorite is actually Toad. I love that guy!

latterdayrastaSeptember 09, 2015

Little Mac

My main in Smash and protagonist of my favorite NES game.

StratosSeptember 09, 2015

Ike.

Love the Fire Emblem representation in smash. I can't wait for Roy.

LouieturkeySeptember 09, 2015

Captain Olimar just because I love the guy.

Tweede946September 09, 2015

If I could have only one it would be Mega Man. I would've thought Link originally, but his support stand is that ugly.

VeganTechieSeptember 10, 2015

Super Mario Bros version of Peach

TendoGamerSeptember 10, 2015

Inkling Boy. It's just so detailed and expertly crafted!

NuclearSpeedSeptember 11, 2015

I am digging the pixelated look of the 30th Anniversary Mario.

AmiiBroSeptember 11, 2015

The Incredible...Shulk!

Mop it upSeptember 12, 2015

Coincidentally, the Toad one is my fave.

KaironCarmine Red, Associate EditorSeptember 13, 2015

Thanks for all the entries everyone!

By the power of random numbers, the selected winners were:

TendoGamer (Won the Toad Amiibo)
Tweede946 (Won the Donkey Kong Amiibo)

Congratulations! I've sent out PMs to both of you so please let me know where I can ship your prizes!

That closes out our Summer of Amiibo giveaways (we gave away 13 free Amiibo in all!), but with how the fall is shaping up I'm sure there'll be plenty of excitement to come at NWR!
