You didn’t think defective amiibo would stop appearing anytime soon, did you? Well, we have four new ones to share: Diddy Kong without a jaw, a dual-wielding Pit, Peach with backwards legs, and Samus without a foot. View the gallery above for snapshots of each.

While we’re on the topic of defective amiibo, you’ve probably noticed that we’ve been talking about them less and less. The fact of the matter is that defects constantly appear across all types of products. That’s why we won’t be featuring defective amiibo on a regular basis… unless we feel that they’re interesting!
