I hope we don't have any trouble with supplies of the third batch, I really really need those Sonic and Megaman Amiibos. And I hope there is a Pacman one coming in the future.

Also, those who were talking about keeping their Amiibos on package, I found a way to open them and use the figurines without breaking the cases, so you can put them back and use them for display. Recorded in video ( although it is in Spanish, sorry. You can easily understand it even with no sound so there shouldn't be much trouble), you can see it if you're interested on it, it might be useful to someone.

You can buy Rosalina for $15 shipped.

Maybe I need to make a separate thread about this...seems people just aren't reading the posts in this thread, they're kinda just coming in here to moan and groan, lol (Am I really the only one trying to stay current and catching up in this thread?!)

Shipping is $53.71 to California for a $78.06 order for the six I want to buy. Is there a free shipping voucher?

 

[Nathan_Drake]

yawn just waking up. let me check my email...

wha? what!?

Fuck you TRU. Cancel my retail exclusive. On top of that my only local store is cleaned out of pre-order cards.


Congrats to those getting in on Rosalina.

WTF

 

[empyrean]

My villager, marth and star fix just arrived .

My marth has a very droopy sword though .









(Posting imAges from mobile so hope they are ok)

 

[Zombine]

Just popping in to get on the "fuck TRU" train. They canceled my order as well.

 

[gbrewski]

In regard to the TRU cancellations: what the actual fuck? Between losing Pit thanks to their mass cancellation and missing Rosalina AGAIN by minutes, I think I officially hate myself for deciding to collect every amiibo.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Wow I read Rosalina was available earlier. Hope you guys were able to get her too

 

[vazel]

It's not just TRU that is cancelling orders! I'm not going to be importing anything, fuck all of this. This entire situation is beyond stupid.

 

[Spades]

The way ShopTo pack their Amiibo's is really bad - just in a single jiffy bag. My Zelda came today and the box was all crushed. Will stick with ordering from GAME or Nintendo as they send them in a box.

 

[Dupy]

3 hours ago my Captain Falcon from Target was delayed and now it just got cancelled. What a mess.

 

[Drago]

My Captain Falcon and Pit were cancelled too. Hooray...

Guess I'll import, whatever. Thanks Toys R Us.

 

[SubZero]

At this rate, is Target going to cancel Rosalinas as well?

 

[Nathan_Drake]

I can't recall such a debacle as this lol. fuck it all
i was half tempted to say F these toys I am done but it somehow makes me treasure the ones I have even more.

I think Nintendo is learning lessons from Bungie and Destiny and keeping us addicted while simultaneously hating everything about it. Wait is Activision publishing these.....?

 

[isny]

Not sure, ordered two and it gave me free shipping. Strange.

 

[olimpia84]

A lot of stores are cancelling preorders I see. My Lucario is gone =/

It is crazy. My Pit got canceled too.

Like your avatar tho ;o

Where do you live?

 

[Sorceror12]

Target just cancelled all of my 2nd wave pre-orders. Every single figure.

Luckily I picked everyone up in store at Toys R Us but pit and falcon.

 

[Nathan_Drake]

It is crazy. My Pit got canceled too.

Like your avatar tho ;o

Thanks I feel it may need to be updated with a certain TRU exclusive T_T

 

[isny]

Where do you live?

Canada.

 

[Vidiot]

So my Lucario preorder that I did day one gets canceled and I miss Rosalina again. Fuck this shit. Guess I'll just hit the stores on release day and if they don't have any more I'll just knock over an isle or something.

 

[Nathan_Drake]

TRU is open at 7am? F it I may go in store and look for the Capt and Pit. Or see if I can find any of those preorder cards that I am pretty sure are gone.

 

[SeanR1221]

The great amiibo cancelation of December.

 

[gamergirly]

Another morning, another missed Rosalina

 

[Neo Dark]

Canada.

Weird. I got it to say free shipping at my cart a few times but whenever I reach the shipping page, it automatically picks the cheapest by default and then the payment page shows the shipping cost as well. Are you sure they didn't add it in and you didn't pay attention?

In other news, the Grinch obviously stole all the wave 2 amiibos in North America which means Nintendo developing a game based on the "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" confirmed.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

I missed Rosalina because of Mario Kart 8; I fucking hate that game now.

 

[Nathan_Drake]

Lucario is up on TRU again

http://www.toysrus.c...&skuid=20213890


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MK_768]

I see I'm not the only one who woke up to cancelled orders. My Sonic and pit orders were cancelled. Just ordered Sonic from gamestop. No clue how I'm getting Pit. My backup order on best buy is still in process but I assume that'll be cancelled in time lol.

 

[_SAKY_]

Lucario is up on TRU again

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But they just cancelled peoples pre-orders. WTH

 

[Nathan_Drake]

Mine too dude. It isnt right. But F it. Get it while you can. Limit 1

 

[Hazu]

little mac is marth... diddy is villager. Diddy will be gone in a week i bet

Hm Little Mac seems more rare in US than Canada.

I haven't seen a single Diddy Kong so far...

 

[_SAKY_]

this is messed up, all of the figures I ordered were B1G1%40 off. the order is cancelled and now the cancelled figures are back in stock.

 

[ThatMattZ]

Well God damn. My day one Lucario preorder was cancelled and now they go back up for preorder? Yeah... I ordered another one. The craze is real.

 

[Nathan_Drake]

this is messed up, all of the figures I ordered were B1G1%40 off. the order is cancelled and now the cancelled figures are back in stock.

uhh yeah that is fucked. no way is their CS going to be able to fix all this shit. So what do you do? Order again or say F it?

 

[_SAKY_]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you BTW. I did order one.

 

[Sandfox]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Were they always one per person or did TRU cancel the Lucario pre-orders to set that up?

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

Ordered Lucario.

I should feel like it's some sort of consolation for missing out on Rosalina again, but since I already ordered it and had it cancelled, it doesn't.

 

[_SAKY_]

uhh yeah that is fucked. no way is their CS going to be able to fix all this shit. So what do you do? Order again or say F it?

Well I lost about $25 is savings, sot hat pretty jacked. Think I'm going to complain.

 

[olimpia84]

uhh yeah that is fucked. no way is their CS going to be able to fix all this shit. So what do you do? Order again or say F it?

Order Lucarion again and get the rest of the figures somewhere else since TRU sells amiibos for more.

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

It's not just TRU that is cancelling orders! I'm not going to be importing anything, fuck all of this. This entire situation is beyond stupid.

Can confirm. I just lost my little Mac, Captain Falcon and Pit preorder when just two hours before they changed the estimated date of arrival.

What the fuck is going on with amiibos at target and tru? I'm going to be beyond pidsed if I don't get those preorders back.

 

[Hubbl3]

So I was just able to add a Lucario to my cart on TRU's website and was able to submit an order. I received a confirmation email and everything, but nothing is showing up under my orders online.

Hopefully it went through.

 

[gamergirly]

Nothing for me

 

[Hazu]

"Thank you for your recent order at BestBuy.ca! We just wanted to inform you that your pre-order item(s) is currently awaiting the release date. You will receive a Shipment Notice email as soon as inventory is ready.

This order contains:
Items(s) Currently On Order: Release Date
Amiibo Meta Knight Figure 30 Jan, 2015"


Well at least that's one exclusive I'm almost sure to get...

 

[RobotHaus]

I'd like to jump on the "screw you Target" train. Both my Little Mac and Falcon amiibos got canceled this morning.

At this point I'm just turned off entirely about the whole amiibo experience. I mean I really like them, they're just not worth this hassle to get them.

 

[jediyoshi]

New episode of Nintendo Voice Chat up. Starts off with some good amiibo hunting stories

[Kriken]

Noticed Lucario Amiibo orders being cancelled and sure enough, mine was cancelled as well. Apparently I also had a KH3 preorder there as well that was cancelled, forgot I even ordered it

 

[Tendo]

I just ordered Lucario on Toys R Us again. Because I'm stupid? Maybe it won't cancel this time

I'm so frustrated :/ Still don't know when Best Buy will have my Luigi pre order - that is if they don't sell it to someone else first.

This is weird. The Little Mac I ordered from Target on Wednesday morning arrived yesterday with no hassle.

 

[Nathan_Drake]

They will play this off as a glitch cancelled all preorders in their system. In by saving themselves thousands in dollars in holiday sales that people took advantage of. Whoever thought of this was an evil genius and will probably get a bonus.

I suggest only ordering the exclusive from them. Try to get the others from somewhere else. They should not be rewarded for this behavior.

 

[blast processed]

Woke up to see my pit canceled from TRU, came on here to rage post. Happy to see I'm not the only one.
