Yeah.
Rosalina is the one I want most, so it's super frustrating it's been so troublesome. My only solace is that my friend preordered one for me on amazon.de just in case I can't grab one from Target. It's not ideal as it would cost more, but it'd still most likely be cheaper than getting it from scalpers (plus they don't get my money so that's a win in my book lol).
So I really wanted a Villager/Wii Fit Trainer/Diddy Kong and found none in any of my nearest retailers...
After browsing Ebay, discouragement got the better of me and I imported these on Play-Asia.
(Murabito is Villager)
+20$ shipping... =_=
I had to do that with Marth/Villager...$13 for shipping hurts when you're used to it being free.

I'm really thinking of doing this then cancelling in the morning if I have any luck at Target...
Edit: Can I cancel in the morning?
Consider adding the UPC Codes and Target's DCPI codes. It's usually easier to call places and ask them to look up stuff that way then hoping they know what a Zelda Amiibo is. You can get both easily from Target's Mobile site.
Example - Here's Villager's page Link
UPC:045496891695
Target's DCPI:207-00-5008
Sorry don't know, never canceled there.
It sold out both days the preorder were up in Canada. Its best buy exclusive here.

All the amibos should work with all games. This is Nintendo's way of pulling an EA\Ubisoft on us

awww didnt see the GoHastings one before I overpaid a tiny bit on Play-Asia and wont get Mac until Feb because I ordered him with my girlfriends Miku Nendoroid

Not that I saw. I had to go Amazon.ca and have it shipped to my girlfriends house.
Isn't Lucario the only one that's sold out?
Screw it. Bought a safety Capt. Falcon (already have 1 preordered locally in US) from Amazon.ca. I hope 1 of the 2 paint jobs is good (CF is my most wanted Amiibo behind Mega Man and Sonic).
Bought a Pit from Amazon Canada, too, because I didn't get that one pre-ordered before the world turned to chaos and Amiibo's became the world's currency.

There isn't even any guarantee that they'll be back in stock though...not sure how Play-Asia is doing it.

Placed my order for Diddy and Little Mac on GoHastings just in case. Anyone have good history with them?
I've ordered a few things from them. Never had a problem. They are huge on ebay and Amazon. Always ship fast too.

Usually Ships in 1 week means it's already on the way to Play-Asia. The only maybe there is Villager

Apologies if this has already been addressed, but has anyone's Target order shipped? I preordered all six Wave 2 Amiibos and still haven't received a shipping notice. My order just says "processing" with an estimated delivery of 12/17-12/19.
Anyone having the same issue? Any cause for concern?

amazon.DE is not bad. Seems to be one shipping price. My buddy and I got 1 villagers 2 Marth and 2 wii fit trainers for right under 100 USD shipped. So 20 bucks each. Way better than ebay and d2l I very is estimated between Dec 20 and 30th

You are fine. You'll get a shipping notification probably Monday. Target is weird

Anyone know a good place to try and get Pit and Captain Falcon? Or should I test my luck right when GameStop opens on the 31st? Scared they'll receive them early and I'll never know and be too late.
Interface23
Member
Probably won't be the 31st according to the retailers, probably next week...
also thanks to that Best Buy Gift Card email that has been floating around I got a Meta Knight for 3.77! Hell Yes!
GameStop barely receives any stock for the rare figures. Maybe one or two. Toys R Us is the best place for non-pre-orders.

I want Pit, but I don't live very close to Target. What do?

GN is saying Rosalina is sold out on Target's website. Did it ever even go up for sale?
Not yet. It was put up last night and was immediately "out of stock". We think it's a place holder. Might go on sale any time, though.

Member
No. Target puts up pages before stuff goes on sale with Sold Out as a placeholder, so bookmark and check every day until it goes live live

Awesome. I really wish we had an exact date when the 2.5 will be available.

Thanks both. I got worried for a minute as I was out all day. These dumb toys are making me crazy!

So, you think they'll have a decent stock of lucario? I mean, he's a fairly recognizable character and of the exclusives probably the most likely to stick around right?
Eteric Rice
Member
I honestly don't even know which ones are available or not. Shit is confusing, because some seem to be breaking their release date.
Edit: Pre-ordered Pit at Fry's. One less I have to worry about. Roslina, Lucario, and Meta Knight now. :/

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
I get it and all because toy stuff like this usually ends up rare especially with shelf space at a premium.
Still the launch, distribution, and stock of these things has been a total cluster fuck from day 1.

I keep trying to order it but it brings me to my cart afterwards. Do they not ship to Georgia?

Best Buy keeps screwing around with my preorder ship dates...Diddy and Zelda were the 14th but got bumped to the 17th, Little Mac got bumped to the 19th, and the other three are now the 30th. As long as they eventually show up...
As far as I can tell, they do. It might mean they don't actually have pit for preorder after all, unfortunately.

FINALLY JESUS
Preordered it on 11/18, and never received it at the Best Buy I ordered it at (its supposed to arrive 12/23 via shipping instead of store pick up now). Nintendo missed every single store (not just Best Buy, literally every single store) in Massachusetts and Connecticut for Villager and Marth amiibos. My dad had to go to a business trip in Japan so he picked one up for me while he was in a Bic Camera. It was faster to fly to Japan, get a Marth amiibo stay there for a week, and come back than Best Buy's and Nintendo's response time regarding my order on Marth.

None. All placeholder show 12/30. Tomorrow is when the other stores are suppose to start wave 2.0. Best buy was suppose to and I think they will since I saw them on shelf today but they wouldn't sell them. The fucked up thing is those of us with preorders got pushed back to 12/17 for Diddy and Zelda and 12/19 for Mac. It makes no sense and I have been talking to BB Social Media consultants via twitter and they had me email all the details which they didn't respond. Amazingly there is a guy on here that works at BB and confirmed they only had like 4 diddy and mac. And he of course got his. The whole situation is unacceptable. I have the rest of wave 2 and all of wave 3 through them. Already paid for them and I have 0 confidence in them but at this point preorders are sold out.
Yeah I really hope they don't screw up my order. I preordered 3 Amiibo through Best Buy so far (Pit, Metaknight and Ike) and I would be beyond pissed if they sold off something I already preordered and paid for.
Good to know. I'm not gonna go crazy tomorrow looking for Captain Falcon
Eh. I'm not worried about my wave 3 orders. As long as they get here and I don't need to search around. I don't care if they're late

Here is my long rant and email I sent best buy earlier from this mess. If you have time you should try and go to BB in the morning and grab them even if you have the preorders. They are going to sell what they and they advised me to get them and then cancel my preorder. That is no joke what my local BB told me today when I asked why they delayed my stuff but had them on the shelf. http://m.neogaf.com/showpost.php?p=143140906
