Dear Reader:
The gruff, tough-talking Detective Pikachu has a big personality that’s only matched by his extra-large amiibo
Detective Pikachu for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems is a Pokémon adventure unlike any other. (Check out our preview to learn more about it!) It seems only fitting that such a unique game gets an equally unique accessory to go with it. The Detective Pikachu amiibo figure is not just a beautifully sculpted representation of the charming character, but thanks to its incredible size, it's bound to become the centerpiece of your amiibo collection.
Measuring in at just over 5 inches tall (including its base), the Detective Pikachu amiibo is mighty impressive. Check out the map that decorates the base and the texturing on his iconic hat, which does a fantastic job of making plastic feel like stiff felt. Of course, it's the amiibo's size that stands out above all else, so we wanted to look at how this cool piece stacks up against other household items.
