We Put The Mega Yarn Yoshi Amiibo Side-By-Side With The Other Yoshi Amiibos
Nintendo's upcoming Mega Yarn Yoshi Amiibo stands at around 8 inches tall, making it the largest Amiibo released to this point. But how big does the Amiibo, which draws inspiration from Yoshi's massive transformation in Yoshi's Woolly World, look when compared to the the other Yoshi Amiibo figures released to this point?
In case you've never had the chance to feel the a Yarn Yoshi Amiibo, they aren't made of the hard plastic that standard Amiibos are made of. Instead, they feel more like stuffed animals. With the standard Yarn Yoshi Amiibos, the Amiibo chip is by the tail of the character, while in the Mega Yarn Yoshi Amiibo, the chip is in the bottom of its foot. The Mega Yarn Yoshi Amiibo also comes with a foldable piece of decorated cardboard that helps it stand upright in more stable fashion. He may be much larger than the average Amiibo, but functionally he offers the same unlockables as the standard Yoshi Amiibo.
Below, you'll see a photo gallery showing off the size of the Mega Yarn Yoshi Amiibo. You can see how it compares to the Super Smash Bros. series Yoshi figure, the Super Mario Bros. series Yoshi figure, as well as the standard Yarn Yoshi figure. The Mega Yarn Yoshi Amiibo releases on November 15 and will set you back $39.99.
