Amiibos are tricky. To a non-gamer pawn broker, they look like $5 toys. To a collector, they are $50 statues. The Challenge: Convincing the broker that this specific Mario is the rare one.
Pawnability Score: ⭐⭐☆☆☆ (2/5) High variance. You need a shop that knows gaming.
Sealed vs. Loose: The Cliff
- Sealed (In Box): Collector Item. Rare. Expensive.
- Loose (Open): Used toy. Cheap.
If you have sealed Amiibos, do not let them bend the cardboard backing. A bent card ruins the ‘Mint’ status.
Look at the base. Official Amiibos have a specific gold foil square block on the bottom (or embedded in the packaging for new ones) and precise Nintendo engravings.
High Value Hit List (2026)

Strategy: Except “Bulk”
If you walk in with 20 common loose Amiibos, don’t ask for $10 each. They simply won’t pay it. Ask for a Bulk Lot offer: “$40 for the box.” This works better because the shop sees it as “Inventory Filler” for their glass case.
Summary
Pawning Amiibos is tough at a generic pawn shop. You are usually better off selling these to a local retro game store where the staff knows the rarity difference between “Marth” and “Lucina.”

How We Calculate Pawn Values
Our price ranges are derived from publicly available data sources, including advertised pawn shop quotes, completed marketplace transactions, and community-reported offers. We apply consistent data processing methods:
- Deduplication and standardization of model names, storage tiers, and condition grades
- Outlier handling using winsorization or Tukey IQR methods
- Aggregation into condition buckets (A/B/C) with 20–80 percentile bands
Each guide includes a Batch ID and links to a downloadable sample CSV for transparency. For complete details on our methodology, data sources, and refresh cadence, see our full Methodology page .
FAQ
Will a regular pawn shop take my Amiibos?
Maybe. If you bring a box of them, they might offer a flat 'bulk' price (e.g., $1 each). They rarely research individual rarity unless it's sealed.
Which Amiibos are worth the most?
Mega Yarn Yoshi, Gold Mario, and double-packs (like Metroid Dread) are high value. Standard Smash Bros characters less so.
Do loose (opened) Amiibos have value?
Yes, but much less. Mainly for their in-game functionality (NFC tag). Expect $2–$5 for nice loose figures.
