They only mentioned Marth. I think that any character that has use in another game down the line will get another printing.
That means probably not WFT or Villager. Villager will probably just get another figure if a new AC game comes out.

I keep refreshing the Amiibo lineup page.
http://www.nintendo.com/amiibo/line-up/
I figure when the new ones show up there, then you can click on a link and go to "find a retailer".
Sometimes when I refresh, Wave 1 shows up first.
Sometimes when I refresh, Wave 3 shows up first.
Sometimes when I refresh, there are just a bunch of errors.

So are all the new amiibos already sold out everywhere? Sure seems like it. :-/

Ok, Well I'm looking for Sheik and Ike and both seem to be unobtainable. I'm asking if they were available for order earlier.
I requested to get amiibo'd but never got a response. 
I'll ask again!
I'll ask again!I'd like to be confetti'd! I'll switch if someone would be so kind.

AmiiboGAF I need help.
So at the moment Amazon UK have Wii Fit Trainer in stock for £19. I've been tirelessly searching for her but refraining from Amazon and the sheer wankery that is eBay. I've been trying to buy every single Amiibo at retail price (£10) as a mission of mine. Should I cave in and get these Wii Fit Trainers on Amazon?

yes, if you can't find it anywhere else. It's part of the holy trinity. So it should be hard.
No, Wave 4 has not been made available at all yet.
Does anyone remember how long it was between Wave 3 being revealed, and being available for pre-order? I'm fairly sure there was some period of time in between there, because I remember people being unsure if there would be retailer exclusives at all -- and, later, not knowing which would be exclusive and to where.
It would be nice if Nintendo just said "they'll be available for pre-order on X date".
People seem to be expecting/hoping for them to pop up at any second, but for all we know it could be days or weeks from now.
I also swore to never pay a cent over retail price, but I ended up ordering an import Little Mac and WFT from Japan through amazon for $23 each. A little bummed, but I honestly don't mind the extra 10 bucks considering shipping and (more importantly) just being done with it. I had been refreshing various sites all over the 'net for hours a day looking for them...paying a little more gave me some free time and sanity back. Worth it IMO.

I bought mine from Yesasia - http://www.yesasia.com/global/wii-u...r-japan-version/1037361555-0-0-0-en/info.html
But I don't care about packaging, I've opened all of mine.

[QUOTE="D";147467102]Anyone know when Amazon usually updates their site for new products that can be preordered?[/QUOTE]
Whenever they feel like it.
Looks like we're waiting on NoA to give the retailers the info for amiibos. Since some places don't even have the new 3ds up yet either.

I'll be updating the OP tomorrow. Got stuck on shift so when I get home in just going to bed. Then going back to work, and then I'll fix it.
I'll be condensing some stuff as well.

Isn't there a Toysrus secret sale tomorrow or something?
I was the same as you, didn't want to pay more than the standard price but managed to snag a WFT on Amazon UK for £14 a couple days ago, just pure luck with timing. If you're tired of checking the page and just want the amiibo already then I'd say go for it

I just realized that i was waiting to hear about that TRU restock, and that is totally tomorrow.

Well, here is my first full batch of Amiibo friends. My descent has officially begun. Now i have to start playing catch-up

It's kinda sad that due to the rarity of these things we're sort of glued to our computers/phones to make sure we get these.
Although if we had concrete date and times then we might have even less of a shot with site traffic and issues. lol
Yes I know. And I'm not even collecting for like money or rarity. I just like them and want to display them. I wish these were easier to get.

Yeah. Hopefully a Marth reprint will set a precedent down the line.
Oh dear...
"You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?"
JK, just preparing for when this becomes real ;P
You killed me. I was refreshing Amazon's Amiibo page for the past hour and then I saw your post and was like "DID I MISS IT WHEN I RAN OUT TO BUY ART SUPPLIES!?"
Terrible.
The Mario Party amiibos look nice. I'm glad I skipped on the Smash versions of most of those characters (I only have Peach so far).
I refuse to buy the Robin amiibo because it is a BIG FAT LIE. Robin will always be female in my heart.
With that said I would pay serious money for a well done mod that makes the figure female.

I'm glad you posted that as it's kind of refreshing that I'm not the only one who does this...
...in a sad kind of way.
The hunt for male/female Robin would be insane though.
I love the amiibos cause they're really cool, but I'm definitely not cut out for this kind of thing just cause of work and life and stuff. I wish I could just casually buy one, even just like a month after they release without the worry that I won't be able to get one
Hopefully just from the first 3 waves they'll expand their stock more for these next waves

I'll post as soon as a retailer has one. I have several notification systems in place to alert me when ready.
Not sure if posted yet but Fox back up at BB.

Ahh, I love your avatar xD Not sure why, but I find the STEAM art for Lucina adorable.
(Well, and must all Lucina artwork.
What are you using to get alerts?
Whilst I prefer Male Robin it is crummy that Male WFT and Female Robin seem to be nowhere. Unless once the Smash roster is complete there are special edition "Alternate" amiibo. Male WFT, Female Robin, Alph and the Koopalings.
Showing only store pick up for me. I really wish BB would change their system so that it's obvious when something is not available online.

Has this been confirmed? I was gonna check tomorrow anyways.
When I hit select store it has pretty much every local one as options with "3-5 days" expected.
Nope! Import to your heart's content. Only the package changes.
It showed me that, too, so I was going to order for in store pick up (since it says 3-5 days) but it let me get it shipped when I actually checked out.
