This special amiibo would have transformed between the Arwing and a walker version, but Nintendo was unable to get the final product up to snuff. Shigeru Miyamoto had this to say:
While Nintendo won’t be making a transforming Arwing amiibo, Mr. Miyamoto would still like to make it a reality, but perhaps not in amiibo form.
For now, I suppose we’ll just have to be satisfied with Falco and Fox. At least, Fox unlocks the classic SNES-style Arwing. This will come with themed lasers, bombs, and Corneria music from the original Star Fox game, so that’s pretty cool.
What do you guys think? Would you buy a transforming Arwing? I know I would.
