Very nice! Mine are on a shelf like that too, gonna wait until I purchase all the amiibos I'm looking for before getting a special shelf.

Still jealous of the Marths, I don't think I'm gonna play Codename Steam until I have all 4 FE characters.

I am so damn glad I didn't sell my Marth like I planned. Now, I'm planning to get all four characters.

 

[Diggeh]

Boy, these last two pages have been pretty heated!

 

[Lee Chaolan]

FIrst GET of wave 3!

Congrats! I love her pose. Wish I could keep an extra one sealed, but gonna do my best to get an extra for someone else here.

Nintendo World Store in NYC is selling Rosalina, Lucario and Shulk right now. This is the line.



And the store is going to close at 5PM due to the blizzard. Fuck me. I'll never make it now.

Fuck me!!! I won't be in NYC until Thurs and Fri. I was hoping Nintendo World would be selling the retail exclusive ones as well.

Man, that's it. When I go to Nintendo World on Thurs, if they still have just the same old common amiibos, I'm done with these fucking things.

These things shouldn't be such a hassle to get. Fuck Nintendo and their screwed up slow restocks.

 

[ZiggyPalffyLA]

Is that really necessary? I meant I'm not upset at all. I think people should take their time and typing up little more detailed information rather than drop two lines and a picture to expect people to understand what they are talking about.

I figured people were aware of this already. And I'm at work so I don't always have a lot of time for long details posts. You just came at my post with what seemed like hostility so I thought some calming down was needed lol.

By the way, this is a big part of the reason for the lack of Amiibos in the US:

I bet there's a lot of rare Amiibos on those ships

Clearly all those ships are filled with Ness Amiibo's. Send them to the UK.

 

[SnakeSlashRO]

Why the hell doesn't CA have a Nintendo Store?

Surprised Redmont, WA doesn't have one because of obvious reasons, but I'd love if more of these popped up.

lol Just Ness too.

 

[BumblebeeCody]

Scouting for Amiibo and found this at the Santamonica BB on Pico

Seems like a bit of a drastic security measure. I mean, strapping a bomb to it is a bit overboard there. :/
Just sayin'.

Hahaha, UK, where all the rare Amiibo go to avoid US scalpers.

I'm sorry about that. Yeah, I just wish that Nintendo of America would handle Amiibo Business better.

Yeah, I have heard about Strike but I thought they resolved it awhile ago. Again, it's probably remain of backlogged shipments that they haven't done for few days.

I know you are more likely to be joking around. It's security alert if someone tried to steal it then it would set off the alarm.

Theft is sadly quite a problem here in the US. People will straight up walk or run out of the store with anything. I bet there's footage of idiots walking out with display model tvs, I wouldnt be surprised.

 

[Frogstep]

All these Rosalina pictures... I really hope we can all get one on the first.

The "new" shipments at Target we're seeing are probably remnants from the strike.

Also, I'm finally caught up on reading all your comments! Whew.

Geez my Toys R Us still hasn't put out Bowser and Toon Link yet...

 

[TheBlackAdept]

Geez my Toys R Us still hasn't put out Bowser and Toon Link yet...

Did you try asking them about them? Mine was holding Toon Link in the back until I asked for him.

 

[ThisBeJason]

Did you call or go there? I called my local TRU a bunch on the day they were supposedly released and they kept saying they never got any. My friend went 10 minutes later and they were sitting on the shelf. A different worker said he put them out in the morning at opening, when I first called too. WTF WFT

 

[-Horizon-]

Well, some asshole just stole my cellphone, I´m so angry right now. When I realized it was too late.

That sucks yo, hope you get your phone back somehow

 

[ThisBeJason]

Ahh yes and SalvaPot, I hope you didn't lose a $600 smartphone.... But still sucks regardless of what it was. Friggin thieves.

 

[crmetteer]

Yeah. I've talked to multiple different employees, and none of them knew anything about it

 

[ThisBeJason]

Both. I've talked to multiple different employees, and none of them knew anything about it

It can be difficult to find a competent and/or helpful employee, but when you do find one, remember their name and always ask for them.

So far I've yet to see the same person twice. I guess it's possible they just haven't come in yet. I have a road trip coming up on Thursday, so I plan to hit up any toys r us on the way. And then on my return trip on Sunday the 1st, plan on hitting up every target for Rosalina

We gotta help each other out!

 

[CaptainSchwann]

So I just called my local Toys R Us and they FINALLY got a shipment of the new amiibos...but the lady told me they don't have a truck crew today so can't unbox any of them. She said it'd be tomorrow morning or the next....Anybody know how Toys R Us works and if this is bs or not? I work at Target and have never had any issue going into the back and unboxing shit myself.

 

[Vidiot]

Got an email from Amazon saying Sheik should arrive March 2nd. :/ I don't want to wait that long.

 

[hawk2025]

Your new estimated delivery date is: Monday, March 2, 2015



For Bowser :/


What the hell, Amazon :/

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

I missed out on preorders for the majority of the new wave (lucina/robin/ness/pac) at the nintendo store. :/

Anyone know when amazon uk are likely to put up preorders?

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Geez my Toys R Us still hasn't put out Bowser and Toon Link yet...

Same here, seems they're waiting for whatever reason

 

[SalvaPot]

Ahh yes and SalvaPot, I hope you didn't lose a $600 smartphone.... But still sucks regardless of what it was. Friggin thieves.

Thanks guys. It was a nice phone, but it was not that expensive, my mother gave it to me since my previous one was broken. I actually like my phones as simple as possible.
But yeah, thieves are the worst, oh well, I´m playing SMG2 right now and I just got Yoshi, so I´m having a great time right now, Yoshi is the greatest. Always brings a smile to my face.

Wario and Charizard re-appeared so hopefully the other four will return at some point.

EDIT - talking about Nintendo UK Store!

Very nice timing on the road trip! I should take a road trip.....

 

[Rocky]

Tell me about it. They could at least sell them on their NA webstore. They do that in EU, so why not here too? It's fucking ridiculous.

 

[ThisBeJason]

Wario and Char showed up on Amazon UK at one point? I had no idea! Dangittt

Nintendo NA hates it's fans. And it hates Amazon even more.

 

[JonnyKong]

When on earth are the Mario Party figures going up for pre order in the UK? I need Toad in my collection.

More than I need food.

 

[SuperCambot]

Yeah, Amazon just told me Sheik and Toon Link are March 2nd.
