Was in a meeting at work so I missed the Fox alert for Gamestop. He's the only one I need. I may be taking this meta game too seriously.

Complete!for now...
No E.T in that collection?
How about Combat? I loved that game!
Have Luigi, Pikachu, and Zelda coming in on Friday from Amazon. Wii Fit Trainer should be here maybe next week from Nippon Yasan. Marth shipped a few days ago and has yet to get here, hopefully soon.
After those guys get here I'll have everyone! Got everyone from Wave 3 preordered as well, sans Bowser and Shiek (and I'm not worried about those guys being hard to find)
So even though I got an e-mail from Toys R Us a couple days ago saying my Captain Falcon I bought from them on eBay wouldn't ship till February 1st, I NOW just got an eBay notification telling me he has been marked as shipped.
Why doesn't Toys R Us ever know what they're doing?
Still no shipping confirmation from Best Buy for my Captain Falcon/Pit order, though : (

With the acquisition of Pit last night, my wave 1 and 2 collection is complete. I'd pretend I was only in for a few characters, but I'm a sucker; I'm in for the whole enchilada!
Of course now that Best Buy screwed me on a few figures in both waves, my faith in their ability to make good with wave 3 is slim to none. I actually went and pre-ordered my most wanted ones (Toon Link, Ike, Mega Man, Shulk and Sonic) from GameStop too as a backup plan.
i made an ebay order a while back for lucario and captain falcon through TRU. looks like captain falcon is shipping today. case anyone is wondering how speedy they are being on getting those out.
lucario says estimated delivery of today, which I know is wrong... but hopefully it will ship on launch day :3

Got 7 so far, hoping to add Fox & Samus to my collection. I'm trying to do my best on remembering I want the ones that can be used in more than one game. At the very least I feel a bit more motivated to get Metaknight & Dedede after hearing how they work in Kirby & Rainbow Curse.
MAYBE I'll get Peach eventually since if I get Fox & Samus, that's the last amiibo I need to get all the Mii costumes in MK8. But I think Nintendo needs to confirm her for another game that I'd want to use her in.
Gl not sure marth will ever be back in stock I'm doing the same thing with rosalina too though and I know its a lost cause till closer to Feb... so I feel you...Lol, every one here posting there whole collection while I'm over here refreshing marth's best buy page every now and then

Is Pit basically impossible to find? He's one of a handful of these things I want and I didn't preorder..

so my captain falcon amiibo... he's a monster... I trained with him for a bit personally using my captain skills and he was learning pretty good, even taunted after every kill(taunts are important to me 
) but i was going to step out so I put him against my other amiibos(and 2 of my bro's) for a 5 player smash and set it to 99 stock. Lets just say that they robbed my poor Cap'n of his innocence. It should be noted that I raised his attack stats, they're about 90 something and his defense is about -5 while his speed is really low. I can't beat him, like at all. he destroys me and he no longer taunts lol. I even picked shulk and was like fuck this I'ma cheese and just spam the counter and show him whos the fucking boss. I got 1 kill with the counter, he picked up what i was doing pretty quick cause after that kill he mostly just grabbed me and shit for the rest of the match. WHY DID THEY MAKE A MONSTER OUT OF HIM!?!

Currently he's popping in and out of stock at numerous places like falcon and Mac.
Gotta keep a eye out at numerous places.
Check GameStop.com for pit Amiibo and see which stores around your area have it. Call them, ask them to hold it for you. Go get it.
That's what I did this morning. Granted my box is a little janked up but I plan on opening him once I get a new one from my bestbuy.com order (waiting for him to ship)
Really only missing Marth. Didn't pick up Villager as I don't care or really know about the character. Same thing with Pikachu. Not into Pokemon so I didn't want it. But man, that Marth is one I really need to hunt down.

Oh damn. I loved Combat. So simple and fun.
Sweet, just ordered my backup. Free shipping, apparently will ship in 2-4 weeks, but who knows with Toys R Us. I was also informed that my Captain Falcon shipped after getting the 2/1 email.

I finally unboxed most of my collection:
Looking great. I got the same case and mounted it.
Preorder me whatever there exclusive is gonna be please! lol
You should ask about Marth and Villager while you're there too.

Good luck with that. Disney Infinity 1.0 figures are still full price.
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure is only 50% off and that was made in 2011 I think?

My TRU Pit order was delayed, but others are shipping? What's the deal!? I've stopped looking for him in stores because I was pretty confident in my TRU order. Now? Not so sure.
From what I've seen stores are running through stock and replenishing certain amiibo. But hey, maybe when Wave 3 hits stores will try to clear shelf space. I think it's more likely people will panic and buy extra Marios when he gets uncommon. That's what happened with me, Fox and Samus.

Hadn't thought about that, but I'm not sure it'll happen.
Me either I don't think
1. It'll have time too.
2. Nintendo stuff never goes on sale.
Did they have any Pit's?

You can also add:
3. Game action figures have not yet proven they go on sale anytime soon considering those from 2012 are still full price. They may be gone before they even get a chance to get half price.
The only 'deal' I ever got on Amiibos was 3/30$ at TRU and I don't think these will ever go below that price.
