Everyone gettings Shulks, Mega Mans and stuff and I'm here crying I can't even get a plank Luigi where I live haha. Enjoy your new amiibo figurines, everyone :D
 
Dang, guess I have a better chance of getting one online since it states Shulk is Online Only now. Sounds like if Shulk didn't get any pre-orders, he won't be sent to that location.

Least there'll be extra Mega Man. Hope to nab him when I pick Sonic up.

Our store has preorders and no Shulks in shipping yet, it's a mess
 
If you haven't learned by now, it's best advised that if you want amiibo then you should pre order.

I certainly did, but i didn't really get until Wave 3 had already gone through pre-orders. Also, its all still a bit ridiculous that its this difficult to get even a vast majority of the figures.

Sheik get tomorrow. I think the GS I ordered at must be lower end since it's relatively small and new.

Oddly enough, I send all my packages to my parent's house. I got another package today.

The only thing left is Mega Man from TRU, but I never got an email saying he shipped...the last one I got was Toon Link.

Just talked to my local Gamestop manager. Everything is pre-order only. I'm about to really be done with this amiibo stuff. I'm getting so frustrated with it.

Same with the three Gamestops in my city. Don't worry though: you'll be able to buy used ones for $50-90 in a few weeks.
 
Now also have Pit (US) for trade, looking for Shulk!

  • Lucario (US)
  • Toon Link (US)
  • Bowser (US)
  • Sheik (US)
  • Pit (US)
  • Pit (JP)
  • Captain Falcon (JP)

Gamestop actually left a message in my home answering machine saying that my "game" would be available tomorrow. It was an automated message from Ivy (what happened to Ashley?) so I'm assuming "game" means Shulk amiibo.

Correct. That is what I got.
 
Just got an apology email from goHastings for a $10 off coupon for a video game purchase of $59.99 or more... After cancelling my Sheik and Toon Link amiibo...

Thank goodness for GameStop for once!

Just a few moar dayyys, patience will pay off :D

No news in my GS, they say to come on the midnight Feb 13th because they are going to be releasing the new 3ds and also the amiibos, I´ll be there, I want the best looking shulk possible.

Also, Hitler finds out Shulk is Pre-Order only.

This will never get old for me.

#Dying2k15 hahahah so gooddd
 
My GS told me that Shulk will arrive with the mail around 1pm and they will have 2 extra...
Good luck to you, sir. Please report your success story!

Also, just got my Toon Link in today and, man, that thing is nice. Love the tunic texture. Your Four Swords set is gonna look sick. Do you have an estimate of time for when it'll be completed?

I'm extremely insecure with how much f2p mobile games are encroaching on Nintendo
Is Best Buy still lollygagging with Meta Knight?

He said about a week and no more than 2 weeks complete turn around time including shipping.
He actually isnt that far away shipping wise I think it'll be there tomorrow night...

Ah, nice, I just replied to your PM with that question and here's the answer! Great stuff, I'm glad this is all working out for the best. Nice turnaround time, too. You'll have those customs in no time flat.

[QUOTE="D";151549022]He's the only one that I'm missing that doesn't have a "set date" yet[/QUOTE]
Worst case scenario, always remember that importing is your friend, even if it tends to be a bit pricier. Sometimes, that extra paid is worth the hassle of tracking it down in-store.

Well I have him pre ordered so I'm trying to have faith in Best Buy to not screw me over. I'm gonna let it marinate unless around the release date, I start to hear or see any horror stories about cancellations or anything...then I'll import him on over

Same here. I hope it is the 20th because my girlfriend doesn't have work that day and she is willing to stake out best buy for me.

Same here, man. Of course, they're gonna get a mouthful from me if that happens, but yep, I'll be ready to import.

I responded to your pm anyway for the rest of your question lol. My username has a more surprising amount of depth to it than you might think :p.

Just read your PM, and that it does! Buta Shaman King name would definitely better suit your avatar, so it makes sense you'd want to change it!
