Geeze... Not even Skylanders got this sort of attention. Either the guy is a scalper and going in for the shipment, or some guy that really wants it and trying to fight the rush.

Mine says shipping now. I'm guessing it will be shipped tomorrow. So excited.
HOW IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE FACT THAT ROSALUMA IS AVAILABLE FOR ORDER ON AMAZON.CA
Says "out of stock" but you can still order!

She was the most common with Bowser down here.
Hell, EB still hasn't sold out of her since putting most wave 3's back up yesterday afternoon: https://www.ebgames.com.au/featured/nintendo-amiibo/wiiu

Just ordered, Thanks.
What is wrong with me.... I saw this and didn't care. Looked again and lost my marbles.
Time to remove myself from that list.

Of course she's going to be common. If she has the same print run as every other amiibo and its all focused on just Target retailers then you can expect a lot of stock and inventory for that amiibo.
Though I'm curious whatever happened to that guy who wanted to horde all these Amiibo form himself. Is he still paying over $300,000 for them?
Yup, I managed to pick her up at a Target at around 8pm. But to be fair that Target also had a Toon Link, Bowser, Sonic and two Megamans lol

Hmmm, if they put Lucario up there too, my worries would be over.

I think all of the retailer exclusives will end up being common. The main reason those deals even exist is to drive customers into those stores, which is kind of hard to do if they don't even have the figures in stock. I expect all 4 to be restocked for a while.
Doesn't ship to US
but it ships to canada where target just went out of business :O
Canadians now have a chance at getting her!
Yeah, tell me about it. I left around 3:00 and I saw how long it got.

The same print run as other Mario character amiibo's.
Target scored getting her compared to say, Ike or Shulk.
Including Ike, Dedede, and Shulk?
I guess Shulk doesn't matter to me so much since I can just pick up my Shulk pre-order with my New 3DS XL.
Fuck I actually fell for it, still unavailable at checkout haha

Huh, Ships from and sold by Amazon.ca? I thought it was a target exclusive.
What's happening now? Is it possible that Nintendo of Canada made some arrangements and gave it to a different retailer?

Apparently (and confirmed by this listing/ FS Twitter page) the Canadian Rosalina stock is being spread out to pretty much every Canadian retailer in limited quantities.
Edit: Beaten, I suppose. But thanks so much, GtwoK, it doesn't even appear to be available when you search for it on Amazon. Now I just need to worry about tracking down Shulk, Ike, Lucario, plus Pit and Marth. And Toad.
God these things are an addictive pain.
Holy heck if true will not sleep saturday to sunday night if true...
ALSO i went to target to pick up sheik they said they can't sell it till the 1st was street dated in register... How is everyone else bypassing this?

Was it Temporarily OOS from the start?
Thank you! Ordered.
Yup! I'm sure they don't know how much stock they're getting, probably gonna be a lot of canceled orders. Get one fast!
Most likely will be. I've said it once and I'll say it again. She's Nintendo's Elsa and Nintendo knows it. Why else throw her in so many games? Heck she makes daisy fans cry with the spotlight Nintendo has given her.

You want to buddy up and help find one for someone on the list.

Updated; removed myself as I nabbed a Rosalina pre-order. Besides I won't be too miffed if I can't get her there.

Nobody knows the eta on Meta-Knight but its expected he may launch with Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. And for store pickups just go in they can look up your order number but be sure you have the card used to pay unless it was paypal in both cases also brimg ID.

WHY WON'T YOU SHIP TO ME
Sorry, Australia. We got all of wave 3 but stuff like Ike and Shulk were the super rares. Sonic and Megaman were quite common it seemed.
Actually Meta Knight was another rare one in stores.

a release date of 12/31/15 and probably a good week later to make sure they actually get them in store
