I also have sonic and sheik pre ordered with them when they sent the codes to emails. Hope those are good.

I'm certain they are still good but, along with Amazon shipping most Wave 3 amiibo in March, they won't be shipped anytime soon.

I'll press my luck and cancel the online preorders if I find them in store first.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Damn it, guys. Even I kind of want a Rosalina now.

And it's probably not going to happen.

 

[kirby_fox]

Yawn. I guess I should get dressed and head out. Gonna go get Bowser, might go check for lucario.

But I don't think TRU opens until after 10. I don't know really, I got too used to their Xmas hours.

 

[Sorceror12]

Sitting in my tru parking lot early game time is 10am. I have a pre-order but not taking chances

I see you sitting in a car with transformer logo. See me waving at you?

 

[PMS341]

So when does MK actually release at Best Buy?

 

[pete_clarf]

I just got to work and realized that I left my Lucario pre-order card at home! I have meetings from 9 - 10:30, so was going to swing by TRU right after that. Now I have to go home first. They'd better not sell my Lucario!!!

 

[georly]

Standing outside tru w 4 other people. Brrrrrrr

I hear that. I just arrived to my TRU, and I see a few people waiting. There's even a guy sitting on the ground right next to the door, playing on his 3DS.

 

[Dominator]

I'll be at TRU 10 minutes after they open, hope I can snag one.

 

[G0523]

Haven't received a shipment email of my Lucario pre order at TRU but never received a cancellation neither. Anyone else on the same boat?

Yeah same here. I also foolishly deleted the email where it said that they reinstated my pre-order so I have no way of looking it up on TRU's website. I just hope I get that confirmation email soon.

 

[PadWarrior]

I got a meeting that ends 10 mins before Toys R Us opens here. I hope I can get their in time to get one. I have one preordered but no updates on my order at all.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

Does TRU have a limit per customer or can one jerk walk in and buy them all?

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Standing outside tru w 4 other people. Brrrrrrr

At least the people here are all in cars still...I am just gonna bull rush through em all anyway. Lol jk

 

[Diddy Kong]

I'm still holding out for this ToysRUs Ebay order I made months ago lol

I'm not terribly attached to a Lucario Amiibo, but I would like to receive what I ordered (and I think was charged for already)

same here. haven't heard anything yet.

 

[Sorceror12]

I see some large guy standing at the door with hood over his head..scalper material. I'm staying in my car.

 

[Letep]

If anyone would be so kind to explain, which wave 3 have been seen for sale within the US?

 

[Animekatt]

I'll get out my car at 10 til. Until then I will jam to music and browse on my phone.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Finally I caved to scalpers my friends . Bought the cheapest toon link and Rosalina I could find on ebay.
Rosalina's prices are outrageous, could get one for 37 with shipping included.
Toon Link for 19 with shipment included.
The were IMPOSSIBLE to find in my city, so I decided to do this at the end. If Media Markt I preordered gets them next week, I will sell the ones I got on ebay to get my money back of the expensive ones.

Next wave im going before the fnac opens and beat the scalper that goes there to the punch. I will also have them preordered at various stores (instead of 1) so I dont have the same problem I had with wave 3. They are not going to get me in the future, thats for sure.

Oh my god, Mario Vs. Donkey Kong predicted this would happen! Via reddit:

lol, we are all Donkey Kong.

At least he knew there was going to be another shipment

oh jeez lol

 

[Linius]

Today was a good day.

 

[Seik]

Sounds like I was right, yesterday.

So it's a start for wave 3!

Yiiiissssssss!

 

[AdventureMike]

Christ almighty, some of the posts yall are making (people outside of TRU) are tense as shit. I don't know about ya'll, but when I got my pre-order cards, I asked specifically about how they handled pre-orders and was told at both locations that they kept things in the back away from ones they are potentially going to put out.

I still get worried about things, but ostensibly if you have pre-orders (especially with cards), they should be in there.

 

[Josephl64]

walked in a store just as a scalper left...so I just left too *sigh*

Didn't realize Rosetta comes out on a Sunday so I'll be getting up super early for opening hours

 

[Animekatt]

Oh I'm not worried. I just got off work, so I figured why not get them when they open now, so I can go to sleep right after with no problems.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Car count is up to 7...

Yes. I'm glad I have a pre-order. My tru keeps items in a locked cage . Seriously

 

[Dominator]

I have reserved on their eBay page but I figured I'd give it a shot to grab one this mornimg.

 

[PMS341]

Sooooo.... Meta Knight.

 

[IntelliHeath]

oh jeez lol

I was joking.

BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!

Hmmm tru employee came out and chatting with guys waiting. They are still waiting so I guess lucario is definetly in store for pre-orders at least.

 

[Danthrax]

Three people confirmed to be standing outside the Toys R Us near me, talking about Amiibos.

 

[friskykillface]

Well, good luck to everyone lol

About to head out now.

 

[-Horizon-]

I was joking.

You never know anymore lol xD

 

[Meeps]

Good luck to everyone at TRU.

 

[Sorceror12]

Gonna go wait in line with these guys now

 

[Miche]

Well, there is a line outside of the TRU in Allentown, PA. Fifth in line so hoping I'll be able to grab a Lucario!

 

[esmith08734]

Screw it. Heading out... : /

 

[Byron Bluth]

TRU open in Canada since 9am. Shipment delayed. No Wave 3 or Lucario. No date from them either except for the Feb 6th date on their Canadian site.

EB Games had 10+ Bowsers and Toon Links. Everything else was preorder only as per the Tweet.

I got the only Dedede.

 

[Animekatt]

They opened the doors early. The lady at the register announced they only had one more Lucario left that wasnt preordered. A few people left.

 

[Hero]

Ugh there's no way I'm getting a lucario

 

[-Horizon-]

wow

Wonder if there's any point going to Target on Sunday morning, now.

 

[pete_clarf]

I am getting super anxious reading these stories! And I'm someone who has stood in line or even camped out for a PS2 (this was overnight!), XBox 360, Wii U, and XBox One.

I know the feeling of suspicion of every single other person in the line. The feeling of dread when a new car pulls into the lot. Good luck to you all!

 

[Zonic]

Checked Target. Nothing new, though I wonder because of their small section where the hell they're gonna fit the Wave 3 amiibo.

Same for Meijer. Still had about 5 Bowsers.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

My Meijer still had 2 toon links this morning that I passed on

 

[VinFTW]

Ugh, stuck at school no TRU's, Targets, Best Buys or Gamestops within a couple hours of me, I'm screwed aren't I?

Bye bye Shulk, Lucario, Rosalina, Meta Knight

 

[Meeps]

Wonder if there's any point going to Target on Sunday morning, now.

Target didn't take store preorders. Most stores seem to be getting at least a dozen Rosalinas.

 

[georly]

Just stood out in the snow for an hour. 3rd in line. Doors open up. They have 2 to sell.


Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
