Thanks! I got those in last night, thankfully. Seems Amazon is sold out now. I need to pay more attention to this thread again.



I'm hoping my Amiibo collecting is more effective than his career :(
"You have any Nes Amiibo's?" "nah man, sold out."
*does full backflip, sells for days*

So is wave 3 supposed to be out this Sunday or only Rosalina at Target? It feels impossible to keep up with all of this sometimes.

Best Buy will have Bowser, Toon Link, and Sheik on 2/1. We only got 1 Sheik at my store and its because I ordered it. So that might be a bit rare.

I think someone has a wiki or a chart for each retailer.
 
Shauni said:
So, probably safe to assume Amazon will, too? Man, amiiibo stuff can be so frustrating, I don't understand why the dates are so wonky to pin down.

No. Amazon keeps giving early March dates for all its Wave 3 figures. It's apparently the last to get Wave 3 after all the brick-and-mortars do.

I was at the rumble Sunday in Philly. "YES. HERE COMES DO- nvm."

Just moved to Hershey this summer. Nothing like driving through dairy farms on a mad amiibo rush. Hoping to order all of Wave 4 online and be done with it.
 
Apparently for amazon.ca my expected delivery date for Ike is February 5th so that's nice. At least I got one of the amiibo I wanted, u-unless amazon is lying to me! They would never do that, right!?

Still haven't seen anything regarding wave 4 in Canada. Gah I wish pre-orders would go up, the suspense is killing me.

Ah well, I see. That doesn't bother me as long as I get my Sheik. I have Shulk pre-ordered via GS, but Sheik is the one I really want.

If/When Nintendo releases a line of Amiibo Trading Cards, I will jump on board. My days of card collecting was finished several years ago with Yu-Gi-Oh! but the feeling of opening a fresh booster pack was euphoric.

Hah you and me both man. Got offboard in the same era. But if they do release some trading cards ill be back in an instant.
 
I really wanna goto Target when they open on Sunday but Im in fear of the big neck beard scalper who is gonna run in, push everyone down, and buy everything with 4 different credit cards before I can even get to the Amiibo section.

All I need is Sonic and Toon Link. What are my chances at getting those at target if I go like 2-3 hours after they open?

We have about 3-4 targets in my general area. Do you think they would hold them for me if I called?
 
This slow trickle is killer. Send me them already!

So in my Best Buy Order, only Toon Link is preparing to ship. King DeDeDe and Meta Knight are still in Payment Validated state.

Rosalina shipped but can't track the shipment.

Bowser got the text alert from Gamestop but am missing Shulk, Megaman, Sonic, Ike, and Sheik alerts.

Toys R Us has not sent anything regarding my Lucario, Megaman, Sonic, Ike, and Sheik (yes, I ordered those 4 twice).

Edit: Accidentally put Shulk in the TRU list. Removed.

Mario party amiibos up for pre-order on futureshop.ca for any Canadians interested, the sites are still 404 but if you use the compare tool you can still pre-order!

EDIT: Ignore, not working anymore!

Just tried again and it worked lol. Got my preorders in for all of them. Now just not sure if I should wait for the Mario to be available without the game cause I really don't want Mario Party.
 
My eBay European import of Wii Fit Trainer shipped. Should get it by Saturday most likely. Now all I need is to wait for Marth's reprint and I'll have all of Wave 1 complete.

Where are you located? Not the States I'm assuming, since Shulk is a GS exclusive here.

Damn I step away and open some Amiibo and you all post like 3 pages! Man this moves fast. Anyways, what do you think of my work in progress? I still need to open some commons up.

Oh no! I see your Link is looking down again too :(
I think I'll try again and toss him in the freezer...
(that won't ruin the NFC chip will it?)
 
Both Megaman and sheik are up for preorder on walmat and nowinstock has not realized yet, gogogogogo

Shauni said:
Hm, it says it ships on Feb. 6. Has anyone had much dealings with amiibos via Wal-Mart? I'm wondering if I should just go ahead and grab this here.

Slow shipping, but well packaged and high chances of not getting canceled.

Target won't have Sonic this Sunday; he's not out yet anywhere. Toon Link is only uncommon, not rare, so you have a decent shot at getting him. If you don't, just get him at a Toys R Us.
 
That was fast, both Sheik and Megaman preorders now sold out on Wally. Lasted like 3 minutes lol

Nabbed an extra Sheik and Megaman. Whew.

Sonic is not out at target Sunday, TRU had lots of toon links when I went.

For those having trouble accessing to the page through your PC, it works flawlessly on the mobile version of the FS/Best Buy page!
 
For some reason Little Mac is showing up as 12.99 on Amazon in the search, but when I click on the view other seller's link, it doesn't show up as 12.99, weird.
 
SalvaPot said:
On amazon yes, the other retailers have yet to open the preorders.

Ah, thanks, a disappointment but still a relief. I'll double down on my vigilance with Best Buy, then.

I feel that at this point, these puppies have enough hype behind them. Nintendo is starting to leave money on the table.
 
So there's a target near my school and well today is my first day of the semester. They'll probably have nothing but if they do have a rosalina on shelf, can I buy it or will the system tell then not to until feb1?
 
SalvaPot said:
The system wouldn´t let them.

Ah OK so I'm not even going to bother going. I might stop by Nintendo world Friday and see if they still got anything. I doubt it but my brother has never been there and he wants to go so even if we do leave empty handed it won't be a total waste of time

Rosalina just shipped from Target.com. My preorder was done on Dec. 19th.

I'm in Illinois. Get ready Midwest friends.

Got mine this morning, too (Midwest here as well). Woo hoo!

Can't believe those Super Mario preorders are already gone from Amazon. I was able to get an order in last night, but only because I was glancing at this thread on my phone while dinner was cooking. Just a normal day in the Amiibo hustle, I guess :-P

I noticed that this morning also. I looked through all the listings thinking it was going to be $12.99 with $50 shipping or something similar, but nothing.
