I just have a gut feeling Meta Knight is going to be tough to walk in and grab. best buy is the most incompetent store in existence.

Really? I think the cake goes to Walmart. My Best Buy has been great with my Amiibo preorders.

Anyway, I'm out. I was going to collect them all but its too stressful for something I won't even really use. Going to keep the ones I like and only order Ness and Wario from the next wave. Selling a lot of 6 of my Amiibos in the b/s/t thread for cost, just to get rid of them.

It was fun for a while.

Manged to order one Villager from ToysRus US. I couldn't believe they actually honored the order and sent me an order confirmed email.

Took them 16 days but its finally here.



A bit salty about the condition its in but I'm too scared to send a Villager back.



Everything will work out AmiiboGAF, its just Amiibo.

They probably had to pull out flashlights and look under their shelves for one that fell off and under it. lol

Still congrats on getting one.

Is it common to have amiibo dreams? I've probably had 5-6 in just the last couple of weeks.

One had me finding a Rosalina, Wii Fit Trainer and Marth in a GameStop. Another had me seeing custom (albeit, shitty) Ganondorfs and Marths at a mom and pop shop. This is getting out of control.

EDIT: top of the page. Look at me now, Mom!

Seriously disappointed with the quality of Ike. That was one that I was really hoping would look good. Did someone post a picture of what the final version of Bowser looks like yet?

I found him decent when I saw him today, but ugly in pictures.

And for bowser

it's a shame that nintendo is god awful with supply and drives fans to walk away, but that's what they've been doing for awhile.

I've got a few that I wouldn't have bought right away if they weren't scarce, so I may sell too when I bail on this circus. I'll be happy just keeping DK, Diddy, Fox from the Smash line.

Nightmares about not finding them, yes
 
Such horrible timing as my finances are tight having just passed Christmas and my sons birthday and the ones he wants are horribly over priced now.What's worse is I live no where near a Target,Best Buy or TRU so my hopes to pay retail for Meta,Lucario or Rosalina are no go.

Maybe I can at least get some 4th wave preorders if im lucky.Also still need a little Mac if anyone has a spare they'd sell please keep me in mind.

Anyone over 30 buying Amiibos?? I have no kids to have an excuse to buy them... 😁😁😁

I'm sure there are tons. These things feed on nostalgia. What 15 year old is going to know Ness or Little Mac, besides their exclusion in Smash?

I'm 29 and have a baby son...but they're not for him :]
Heck, once we put him down each night, my wife and I bust out the Super Mario 3D World!

single and graduating in 5 months. Have no time to be spending on these and yet lots of minutes wasted already :/.

Hey, was it you that was going to check on Gamestop instore pre-orders? Any luck, or did I miss your update?
Click to expand...

You did not I just returned and Nada :/ no in store orders yet ill check again after work in 3 hours. The specific manager that told me they would be available Monday will be there then hoping he can shed some light.
 
29 here....Military, married with 3 kids.
I use my children as an excuse to buy Amiibos. lmao.


Sure, I've brainwashed my kids to want them....(I'm kidding, they lovee smash bros)
I enjoy the hunt and we all benefit.
 
Almost 30 with two young boys 6 months and a 2 year old. Happily married wife thinks I'm nuts sometimes but got me 2 for Christmas so she's awesome. I will eventually give them to the boys.

I'm about to turn 34, I'm married and have a two year-old. My wife is okay with my hobby, and my daughter can identify most of the amiibos I have. Her favorite is Princess Peach.
 
32 here. With a dog as a daughter. :p
I jumped quite late into this (December) and just completed the first 2 waves today with Pit.

Now to wait if there aren't any problems with the wave 3 preorders...and be on the lookout to preorder wave 4.

I'm opening and using them too. ;)
