They started to restock more frequently recently, that's when I got mine. But it lasted about 1-2 minutes, though.

Ahh. Well maybe further down the line when I get a job I'll add it to the watch list and get it when she goes up

The only right way to remember Horizon is with one of these... or one of the other 2 variations that I made http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=150002300&postcount=298

We really should stop using that word just in case that really was the reason. But yeah were you surprised when you were able to get that name? And you're a girl too? Can I marry you?
I'm kidding around. Maybe

So how are the supplies of Rosalina amiibos at EB Games up there in Canada? I mean in store. Are you guys getting shipments similar to what we got for Target or is it much less?

lol

Yeah, I won't say the word again. But I think that's why he was banned for what he said to me. I again, took no offense. Had I known the Lucina name was tied to that issue, maybe I would have picked a different name. Oh well.
 
I just want Mega Man. Well, Lucina. BUT I have her pre-ordered. So for now, I must have Mega Man. Last one I need to finish my wave, and I never got a pre-order in. :( Yikes! Im in trouble I feel it.
 
I just got back from work and seems a lot has gone on. My bf mentioned some of the issues going on with amazon and now I'm concerned. We have our Mega Man (and another Sheik) preordered there. idk how NOA has managed to make such a mess of these release dates. lol

Got one of those delay approval request emails from Amazon.com regarding my Mega Man Amiibo order. Obv. approved it. Kinda bummed though because in the past these delay approval things mean they don't have enough to fill my order. :(

Ugh, got one of these too.

As stated above, they mostly only got Bowser. GS's shipment for Wave 3 was pushed back till the 13th and 20th.

What are the issues? As someone that doesn't even have Mega Man pre-ordered, I'm super paranoid about getting him. Desperately waiting for someone to put his order up for sale (even import).

It's comical, really. Just a laugh riot! Or, y'know, it causes bursted veins and aneurysms. One or the other.

I imported Ike, but that's me with Mega Man. :*(

I do think Ike is going to be really hard to get in the U.S. Just because supply has already been so low for everything else. Wave 3 overall in the U.S. has been awful.
 
Haha, you guys and your dreams.

I stayed awake during the night for a couple of weeks until I got Rosalina, refreshing a stupid page to see if she came back in stock. That plus having to do regular, real life related things on the next day.

Wait a number of amiibos like Megaman and Sonic are online exclusive? Wow that sucks even more.

Anyways, when are they releasing this?
A more refined version of course since I threw this one together in 5 minutes

I'm really surprised they didn't do more with the Zelda amiibo since they gave Link a new weapon even though he has plenty. Really hope they go back and add more features and actual release an amiibo line for Hyrule Warriors.

My local Target, TN, said they should have some Ike's and possibly Mega Man's on the 13th so that's where I'll be. If they don't I'm just going to order my Ike off Amazon.uk. if they do have MegaMan's want me to pick one up for you?

Thanks for sharing, that's good to know. I am putting him on full scrutinization if I see him in stores. Meta Knight too, been seeing reports he has scratches and paint smudges.

The district manager of the EBs in my area just called me to let me know a King Dedede replacement will be at the local store I originally got it at tomorrow!

Woohoo!

Hopefully it's not fucked too

Which stores are actually providing shipments in store then?
 
Omgomgomgomg! So today I went to check the mail not expecting anything but trash like the past few days and I find a key inside this time that we usually get to open the bigger boxes when you get mail that can't fit in the normal ones and:

GglbR2k.jpg


Now the first thing I thought was maybe I missed this key but no, the mailguy was there and I even asked him if he just now put it in and he said "Yup".
I brought up that it was never there and he said someone must have forgotten to put it inside because he noticed there was packages there delivered there to my mailing address.
I then jokingly, but not really, told him that they should find out who worked that day and fire him because these have been there since Monday the 26th.

Tortured for a whole week but thankfully these finally made their way to me. BIG thanks to ThisBeJason and esmith08734 for sending these to me. And of course everyone who was thoughtful enough to try and help me get what I thought was lost.
 
Okay so I've been completely out of the loop since I failed to get a Rosalina on Sunday at Target. I've got my tax return so I'm just gonna bite the bullet and import it from somewhere. What's my best option for ordering it from anywhere?

Wow that's insane. So your package was inside the mailbox this whole time and the only reason you never got your packages was because someone forgot to give you the key?

Wow, nice. Fill us in, did you take the tactful approach or did you rip him a new one? Hopefully it was the former!

Man, they don't call you Mr Nice Guy for nothing, do they?

I'll be looking on the 13th too, but all I have around is Meijer (it's like Walmart) and GameStop. If you found an extra I'd be thrilled, and if I find my own I'm sure someone on here would buy it from you.

Amazon is sending people emails about whether they want to keep their preorders or not since there is no actual release date and they haven't been able to get stock and say they will cancel regardless if there is no date by March 6 or something. (idk I haven't gotten an email yet but he mentioned others had gotten one like that and I saw some other people mention it)

What's sad is that I really wouldn't put it past them at this point.

Any chance you could pick up a Mega Man for me too, pleeease? Kind of a big fan here, some in this thread would say. I'd love to get my Mega Man early!

What would you want in return, if you're willing to help me out?

Yup. I'm glad the mail man thought it was funny for some reason. Cause it really wasn't. D:



Thanks playa! :D

Well at least you got them so that's a good thing. Though what if the guy that was supposed to put the key there was actually supposed to be him. Usually it's the same guy delivering the mail. Maybe from time to time it's another but usually it's the same guy. At least for me.
 
Hearing Amazon shipping Sonic makes me hopeful that GameStop will get him earlier than 2/20....but I feel like that won't happen or by a huge amount.
