<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sorry kids, it appears that adjustable plastic components are too much for you to handle. An Arwing themed amiibo will not launch alongside <em>Star Fox Zero</em> on April 22</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">nd</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“<em>We did have a few prototypes. There was an Arwing amiibo that transforms into the Walker, but we weren’t able to turn that into a product that could meet safety guidelines for children,</em>” Miyamoto explained in a translated interview with</span><b> </b>Jose Otero of IGN<span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p>During a past interview with IGN, Miyamoto talked about the creation of a transforming Arwing amiibo back at E3 2015.</p>
<p>“<em> . . .Earlier, we talked about how the 3D model of the Arwing will actually transform [into a two-legged Walker] in the game. We have an actual model and we’re thinking how much it would actually cost to make when it’s transformable. Can we actually do that? We’re thinking about a lot of different things right now,</em>” Miyamoto said at last year&#8217;s E3 conference.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, it turns out that Nintendo will not be able to release a transforming Arwing Amiibo. At the very last, we will be getting <a href="https://bagogames.com/marchs-nintendo-direct-wii-u-highlights/" target="_blank">an additional game bundled with Star Fox Zero</a>, as announced during yesterday’s Nintendo Direct.</p>
