Curious, are you US? And if so, US-E or US-W? I'm still waiting on my Amazon.Fr Lucario+Rosalina... getting pretty pissed tbh.

The fact that this human lives in the same city as me makes me want to find them and punch them.....hard.
I find this perplexing as to why you would want to punch someone that is selling a lot with defect figures. They're not scalping 30 Toads to unsuspecting people on eBay. Your hate is misguided.

So Amazon US put the listings for the Super Mario series back up.
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_st_d...011,n:3075113011,k:amiibo&sort=date-desc-rank
Unfortunately, still listed as "Currently Unavailable". Maybe they're preparing to reopen preorders?

Damn, that sucks. Your Brock avatar's expression is perfect for this scenario. When I ordered the Trinity off if Amazon.de, it definitely took around a month to get. Log into your account on Amazon.fr, check your order details, and look for the estimated delivery date. If it's way off, call 'em up.
Geedorah's avatar: also the perfect expression for you, it seems!

Because they are trying to sell it for 10000 that is why. It is idiotic.

Ike's been delayed for me from GS, for who knows how long, so I hope you get yours sooner.
Luckily, Shulk, Sheik, and Toon Link will be in today, so I'm grateful for that. My Best Buy Dedede releases Friday, as well as Sonic, but I'm so annoyed that Mega Man isn't until 2/20. I've read that's when Meta Knight releases, too.

Yeah, I'm sure that's what they're gonna do. Surprised they even shut off order on all but Toad in the first place, honestly.
Yeeeeah, seriously. Mega Man in the previous stock pic would make me flip!
If the auction is legit, he is selling a lot with the absolute rarest Amiibo's possible. $10,000 is high for you, me and the vast majority of people, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone bought the lot eventually for either that price or close to it, and also knowing full well what they were getting themselves into.
Your hate needs to be at the people buying up large quantitites uncommon-rare Amiibos to sell at inflated prices.

I was looking at some pictures on Reddit and someone heated up Megaman's arm and straightened it out. Pretty neat.
It seems every picture I see of someone holding an Amiibo is need of fingernail trimming and/or cleaning. Step up your hygiene game, people.
Edit: looks like a rough paint job above Mega's speedo and on his side. Anyone know if that is a factory job?

Goodlord man I don't hate the person or what they are doing. I think what they are doing is stupid and have a feeling that most of them are "fake". Obviously I would not punch them lol. If someone buys them then well....ok then. I agree with scalpers though...now that is some hate.

How about online at GameStop.com? My preorder for Shulk is on the website, but not the app. Same applies for my MH4 New 3DS preorder.
FWIW all my in-store pick up pre-orders say "closed" on the GS website.
I have already put 5 dollars down on each in-store too.
The guy assured me that my pre-orders are safe. So... I guess I just wait until 2/13?

My Shulk for store pickup says closed on the GameStop website, but I went to the store anyways yesterday to pay it off. So yeah, it was closed, but my preorder was in their system and everything. I should be good as well.

I wonder if his arm will actually stay that way.
I tried making Link looking straight 3 TIMES now! And that stubborn elf is always looking down the second I leave him alone.

Sheik from Amazon is coming by Monday according to an email I just got.

Wait, so the only way to get the Mario Party reposed Mario is to buy the Mario Party 10 bundle?

These came in yesterday, just in time for my birthday!
Plus my in-laws gave me a $75 Amazon gift card. I'll probably use that on the Wave 4 pre-orders I'm looking to secure. Hooray!
I can't get over how good DDD looks, I really need to track one down.

Do they show on the website? I was trying to find my pre-orders on the website yesterday and couldn't find anything. Mine were all made in-store and for in-store pickup.

Haha, so true about the bad nail hygiene, I've thought the same thing!I was looking at some pictures on Reddit and someone heated up Megaman's arm and straightened it out. Pretty neat.

And daaaaamn, Mega Man looks so cool like that. I wonder if it's hard to do? Might consider having my one blue one like that, with the other 7 custom painted ones in original poses, lest the paint gets worn out by doing that.
It seems that way for NA anyway. At least for now.

Congrats! Dedede looks great!These came in yesterday, just in time for my birthday!
Plus my in-laws gave me a $75 Amuazon gift card. I'll probably use that on the Wave 4 pre-orders I'm looking to secure. Hooray!
Yep, it's supposedly a temporary bundled exclusive in the NA territory.
I had given up on Amazon. LOL
I just checked and both my Toon Link and Fox are "preparing for shipment".
Crap...now I'll have 2 of each, lol.
My Sheik still says "they need more time".
Edit** Wait, I may end up with 3 foxes. I had a Wal-Mart Fox show up that I thought was canceled...derp.
Looks like I'll be trading/selling soon.

That is completely blank. Nice. I did find the "my reservations" under the PowerUp Rewards section and that shows the same thing as the app. Mega Man and Sonic are there, but no Dedede, Ike, Shulk. Guess I'll go check it out over lunch.

That is fucking hilarious. I don't think there's any way to blatantly show how disconnected and ignorant there customer service is with their policies and products.
From what I heard, if your preorder disappeared, that means it's on its way to the store.
Also, GS will now know exactly how many of each Amiibo is on it's way to your local store for the 13th. By the looks of it, a number of stores are only receiving enough Shulks for preorders only.
I got a delivery estimate update from Amazon saying that Mega Man will be arriving on Friday. Since I got the delay e-mail earlier, I panicked and ordered one from Japan on Ebay in case Amazon did not come through. Since it looks like they will, I'll have an extra that I am hoping to trade for a Meta Knight or Rosalina.

I don't see Mega Man being a fair trade for one of those, but I guess we don't know yet.

I've never done any sort of Amiibo mod, and know very little about it. Maybe it has something to do with the cooling process? I know people submerge the modded portion in ice water to set it permanently. Wish I could be more help.
I agree, the pose looks really good.
For some reason there's a LOT of Captain Falcons here. Weren't here last week. Picture taken in Denmark.
I need to teleport to Denmark and then back. =l
Sorry, haven't followed this thread that thoroughly, but is it safe to assume that finding a Mega Man Amiibo will be near impossible at this point, safe perhaps for importing it from Germany or Denmark? I was waiting for Amazon UK to send me a message it would be available for (pre-)ordering but I now realise that might never happen...
By the way, I just pre-ordered my first figure from Amazon UK: Wario!
I was planning on buying a select few more, depending on possibility of course. I wanted Mega Man for certain and quite possibly Pit, with Regular Mario and Luigi and some variation of Link following later down the line. I must admit that they are indeed addicting to buy and collect.

Makes it look as if F-Zero was a healthy popular IP which hasn't been dead for 11 years ;-;

If it were, Samurai Goroh and Jody Summer would have been Smash characters. Sadly, they aren't.
LOL, love those copy/paste replies.
