Dude TJ, you're a god when it comes to making custom amiibo. You need to like be in charge of Nintendo's amiibo. They need to hire you like soon before amiibo die potentially.
I love this series it's basically the only series of yours that I watched every episode of. I've been waiting months for you to make another episode besides koopalings. Can't wait for season 2!!
TJ I love this series a lot. This series showed me the possibilities of customs. I feel like making my own custom because of this series. I can't wait to start it and finish it and show my results to you everyone else on Twitter.
Nothing makes me feel more like an underdeveloped underling than this video. I have a bunch of Pokémon amiibo and all I did was turn them into their shiny variants. After watching this video, I now realize how fun amiibo customization can be.
These videos make me want to redesign EVERYTHING. Every figure, suit of armor, character design, I'm just itching to give everything around me an overhaul.
If you actually look at Hammerslam Bowser in Skylanders, it has a lot of those colour details that are missing from the figure. The spikes of the hammer are silver in game and while the center of the hammer is still all silver, it has a dark silver for the body with a much white silver for the highlights. It's largely the same with his armour. There is a ton of shading on the game model that isn't reflected in the figure. Honestly if you wanted to just give your Hammerslam a better paint job, matching it to its in game counterpart would go a long way to making it look like an amiibo quality figure.
fucking quack is dumb it like those tv shows where someone is trying to make a decision we're there's that "no that's bad" guy and the "JUST DO IT" guy in this case MiiTJ is the happy angelic Tj but the other one is evil
Interesting fact about the HammerSlam Bowser NFC chip. It is actually a dual chip, distinct skylander and amiibo chips built into the same structure. To prevent crossed wires they included what is basically a switcher. By rotating the flames it moves the chip across a thin piece of metal that bridges the gap between two different sets of contacts effectively completely the circuit for either the amiibo chip or the skylander chip separately. By removing the chip from the base you also separated it from that bridging switch which is why it didn’t respond at all. However because of that design there is an open contact on the chip which may have been fried by exposure to water. I opened the base of mine and removed the chip without water treatment to be sure it would continue to function. Unfortunately if you intend to use the original NFC chip you need to do one of two things. Either glue the bridge back into the chip in the position where it keeps the amiibo portion activated or devise a new method to allow you to switch back and forth. Either way it is going to be something of an extra step so swapping in a Smash Bowser chip is probably easier especially considering HammerSlam Bowser has very limited functionality in almost every game.
more customs i love these videos i get so inspired i actually made my very own custom mii amiibo and im working on another custom mii amiibo:) thank you so much i got really inspired:)
I know I'm mega late and this won't be noticed, but I think I know why the figure wasn't working as an Amiibo. For Hammer Slam Bowser and Turbo Charge Donkey Kong, their bases twist to let you switch between Amiibo and Skylander. To make them act as an Amiibo, twist it so you can see 'Amiibo' though the hole in the base. Same thing for the Skylanders side. Amiibo only works with games that allow Amiibos, not in Skylanders. Skylanders only works with the Skylander games that aloow him, not anything Amiibo related. However, you can twist it so the hole is in the space between Amiibo and Skylanders. If the hole is over that space, is cannot act as an Amiibo nor a Skylander. I think it's trying to read both at the same time but can't or the data is compacted to only be over the letters of the side you want it to be, not too sure. It doesn't read because the reader can't see the data of the other side or sees both at once and can't choose which one it wants to scan. If I'm wrong, oops. If I'm right, then I had that feeling for way too long and only now have I said it.
The reason why the Hammer Slam Bowser amiibo chip didn't work after you placed the figure in water was because the contacts that were used to short the chip out for whatever option was selected was not present on the chip, and therefore not working.
THEY DON'T HAVE THE SAME CHIP NO HAMMER SLAM BOWSER WILL EVER WORK AS AN AMIIBO UNLESS YOU TAKE OUT THE THING THAT SCANS AS A SKYLANDER AND PUT THE CHIP IN FOR A AMIIBO WHICH THEN IT DOSEN'T WORK AS A SKYLANDER
MiiTJ oh! I had no idea! Thanks. Might consider donating then... never done patreon before though. just went out and bought some yellow-grey/gray millliput and I'm thinking of doing a splatoon custom to make it like my in-game inkling. If I do well, I'll email it in.
There's one particular custom I was kind of wondering about. The Lucas amiibo released a few months ago, and because in Smash Bros. one of his alternates is a Masked Man T-Shirt, do you think you could do either Lucas's shirt or the Masked Man himself? In case you don't know what it references, he's an antagonist who appears in Mother 3. In fact, Smashified did an updated model for it too, so you could work off of that.
tj keep up the good work don't waste the amazing talent you have and also a thing i would change on your bowser amiibo is instead of using a dragon try using a lego bionical ball missile because it as a small hole in the bottom so you can feed a paper clip through and also is a bit bigger and a bobomb is a bit bigger than a two star ball action figure but that's my personal preferred method keep up the good work I can't wait to see you inspire me to try next
TJ eres lo máximo amigo, por favor Season 2 lo más rápido que se pueda 😭, tu creatividad se contagia y hace que todos hagamos Custom Amiibo 😁😁😁 excelente video!(:
Thank you I only have 7 amiibos being mario bowser peach link yoshi luigi bowser jr and rosalina and im not allowed to paint them rip but this is so cool
Is this why there's no Bowser Jr. Amiibo in stores? EDIT: Oh yeah, by the way, if I'm correct, the Nintendo Skylander chips do work with games such as Smash, so you're kinda boned. You basically just murdered an Amiibo.
Yes but not for the reason he thought. The skylanders chip is actually two chips in one. To swap between skylander mode and amiibo mode there is a circuit bridge on the top of the top of the chip that brides two different electrical connections depending on what position the amiibo is in. That bridge is part of the base so by removing the chip he removed the connector which means no power getting to either version of the NFC. You can make it function again with a little soldering but you have to choose which version of the chip you want skylander or amiibo and it'll be that permanently afterwards.
The way the skymiibo works is you have to turn the base to switch between amiibo and skylander. Since you just put the chip without some sort of barrier over the skylander setting it confuses it.

Holy shit the nostalgia is strong, i miss this series
same..
Very true
This got me into custom amiibo 5 years ago and it's nice to come back and rewatch :D
I love how these aren't just repaints of amiibo, they are actually new figures.
Bro, I remember watching these videos five years ago and it just made me so happy
Same!!
This is a channel I have been subscribed to for a long time. So many memories :)
Dude TJ, you're a god when it comes to making custom amiibo. You need to like be in charge of Nintendo's amiibo. They need to hire you like soon before amiibo die potentially.
Haha! That's some high praise. Thanks!
Why are u being nice to him he's a jerk to skylanders fans
+Christine Johnson skylanders suck
You shouldn't make other people not be nice to one person just because he doesn't like something!
Maruto I agree
My favorite thing about this show is how insane you get with your part choices, you'll take something from anywhere if it suits your purposes
Whould it be cool if you put a DK super changers in a barrel
I'll help all I can! This is an awesome ending! I just sat and watched amazed at all the customs. Awesome job TJ I'm hoping for a Season 2!
This guy should be a member of Nintendo am I right so he can make good amiibo
It’s sad you only got 18 likes in 4 years with such a good idea
I like the idea
i loved this video series years ago, i found "dark tj" on my wii u and memories flooded in
I love this series it's basically the only series of yours that I watched every episode of. I've been waiting months for you to make another episode besides koopalings. Can't wait for season 2!!
Thanks for watching!
do final smash
Since we're getting Callie and Marie Amiibos in the summer, maybe you should make Agent 1 and 2 Splatoon Amiibo?
arent they marie and callie
... Yes. That's my point.
They're Callie & Marie in different outfits.
huh
+Xenophilius394 true dat
You do gods work
Hahaha!

Good job on winning the second Smash chess birthday battle
You’ve inspired me to make my customs I’ve made purple yoshi Iggy and soon Morton koopa I used your tutorial
WOW! AMAZING work! I really like what you did with the Ice Luigi.
TJ I love this series a lot. This series showed me the possibilities of customs. I feel like making my own custom because of this series. I can't wait to start it and finish it and show my results to you everyone else on Twitter.

Thank you SO much. Customizing IS fun. Glad I could inspire you in some small way ;)
All of the customs look great, but I think Peach's Clown Car should have had some metallic pink in there somewhere.
It also should had a Heart pattern.
The cup of it actually is metallic pink (rose gold) but it was difficult to light it in a way the reflected the true color.
I actually might add hearts. That's a great idea!
+MiiTJ If you do could you show the heart pattern on Twitter. I would like to see it.
I've just found your channel, and it's amazing! All the work you put into these works of art! You deserve more views!!
These videos make me want to redesign EVERYTHING. Every figure, suit of armor, character design, I'm just itching to give everything around me an overhaul.
Hahaha! If you do, send pics!
When I saw the piranha plant figure I said this needs to become an amino, and one year later, well....
I love this series! I'm looking forward to Season 2!
custom conquest is the reason I subbed

wow when most people make customs they end up pretty crappy but when u made it it looked legit
I honestly think that bowser should have a trimmed down mario amiibo fireball instead of a bob-omb
you should make Mario maker Mario
What?

Who needs tools when you have little sisters to pry your amiibo open! R.I.P my pikachu
You are the best amiibo custom maker ever

Season finale...yes Series finale... no way!I like custom conquest. Its The reason why I subscribed
Wow this is nostalgic to me🥹

@@anexistingperson8540 its a skyliibo, it functions as both; calm down
If there is a season 2 can you make a kamek/magikoopa? Your Work is amazing.
Hopefully there will be a season 2! I got back into Amiibo, and I really want to make more customs, and see more! Their so cool!
the Bowser Jr. Amiibo with wheels works great as a toy without the base
I think an Olimar custom of Alph would be a pretty cool custom
Please keep going with Custom Conquest! I had an idea you could do classic Wario from the Mario games.
Nathaniel disliked this video with 95 different accounts because peach has a pink gold clown car
How do you not have 500,000 subscribers bro your video looks amazing man very good video
When Season 2 Starts (and if the Windwaker Toon Link Amibo is out) can u equip said Windwaker Link Amibo with the King of the Sea, Red Sea Lion Boat?
You have earned yourself a sub, this is awesome.
I need to see more custom conquest, please make more!
I think it would be good if you did a video on sculpting basics, going into more details than the previous ones. It would really help a lot of people.
That's one of the Unlockables on Patreon.

YAY I was waiting forever this video is awesome
after you made THIS VIDEO NINTENDO STARTED MAKING DARK VERSIONS OF HAMMA SLAMMA BOWSER!
Oh my god, I want that bowser jr amiibo so bad
Decadeskull 1 That's why scalpers suck
YOUR A GOD AT THIS STUFF.Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopoooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.i love costume quest
Cool video and that amiibos! Make some Creepypastas amiibos! Slenderman, Jeff, BEN, Sonic EXE, Mario EXE, Nina or other!
the modeling looks great on the skylander but that paint job...
Custom conquest 4 ever
That's it. I'm subscribed

Wow thats amazing I really want Mario
Nostalgia in one video
You should a series just for SkyLanders! I'd love to see something like a Khaos or Gilgrunt riding Zap!
7:08 so wiggly
you should make dark tj and tj a clown car that show their personality and a weapon.
Being a skylander collector when DT said the joke about water traps I was laughing so hard
You're the only person in the world that caught that joke XD
MiiTJ thanks btw I got miliput for my birthday
