Awesome. Thanks for the info!
Do you have any idea why GS is getting all of the amiibo much later than everyone else? It's odd to me.

If you preordered before Christmas you should be ok. Any time after Christmas and it's Spring for you

Just got shipping confirmation for Ike and Sonic from GameStop. 
Ah, yeah. It's not too active.

Yeah, that thread got buried pretty quickly. Most people would rather use B/S/T.

It seems like the gap between supply and demand just keeps mounting. It feels like Nintendo is stuck rushing to meet demand for a couple figures at a time... I say that because of how, at most stores, it isn't even wave 3a and 3b any longer. It's just been a steady series of arrivals, a few varieties at a time.
Yeh the shipping is expensive, mine was even a bit more expensive than that. I guess it's all relative though, as I know I have paid a lot myself to ship stuff from overseas that I couldn't otherwise get over here. I just cost it up for people and if they're cool with it, I'll happily send something over.

My guess is that they don't want to sell somebodies preorder to walk-ins just yet.

If you really love the character then getting import versions for $10 more on Amazon isn't too bad.
I'm tired and dumb, bare with me here. So to my understanding:
Ike is limited to one. Has no solid release date.
King Dedede is NOT limited to one. Has no solid release date.
Sonic and Megaman are NOT limited to one. Arriving the 20th, possibility to pick up then, but likely going to be the 25th.
Did I get it right?

Correct but I believe all 4 are scheduled to start arriving in stores on the 25th.

Your order still hasn't come in from Amazon France?
I tried sending in a box with bubble wrap but that got it up to $20. Using a bubble wrap parcel was $14 + $3 for packaging I think.
Really hope they restock Mega Man and Ike.

Yep it hasn't. He said it on the previous page I believe
Sounds right, but that only applies to GameStop. And if you have preorders, you'll get yours depending on the date you preordered. All I know is I preordered before the cutoff so I should get mine by the 25th, but only 1 Ike and not 2...

I got my Ike Amiibo from Amazon last week. Surprised to see GameStop being so slow.

That's why I save all the smallish boxes I get from Amazon, target, GS, etc as they're perfect for shipping to mates here.

I saw a few at my best buy today.
Haha, I'm too OCD to send in a bubble bag. Maybe that's why mine's costing more. Hopefully the person I'm sending it too is the same as me
If you need Ike let me know cos I literally have two sitting right here.

I'm pretty sure I pre-ordered everything before Christmas, but now I'm not so sure. I can only find the receipt where I went in and paid them off. That was on 1/17. Not sure when I put the initial $5 down!
This affect me even though I preordered in store? I didn't use gamestop.com at all. For the last 4
Shoot, can't remember when I pre-ordered my Ike and Dedede. I know it was after Christmas though. Whoo... Summer amiibo from winter orders. Ehhhh...
I saw a Toon Link at our Wal-Mart a week ago. Wasn't sure if anyone here needed it, but it didn't seem he was too hard to come by. Hopefully everyone who wants him can get one.

Called my GameStop and they haven't received any of the Ike or MegaMan amiibos yet. What's this I'm reading here about them being delayed to the 25th?
Got a second shipment of MetaKnight in for Friday. All of them are ticketed items so there won't be a rush to the Amiibo department. I debated lining up for one since I'm off that day but it wouldn't be fair if I got in line first since I work there. I'll just keep an eye out online. King DeDeDe still showing no on hands anywhere in the district and nothing in transit. Hopefully just held up at the docks.
LEAVE LUCINA ALONE YOU SONOFABITCH!
Well...Rosalina was "common" if you stood in line so hopefully...well actually I hope she is Target exclusive. Target was the best and easiest one if you stood in line.
We cool yo we cool. No need to get hot and bothered, we'll get through this together.
*holds a mad WiiRevolution1 back*
In my hands? Nope.
It was ordered and it is currently unclear where it is in the world since it shipped mid January from france by amazon and was supposed to arrive at the end of January.
I did get a refund back though when I emailed them. They apologized and whatnot. My other amazon france orders have all been delivered though (they all had tracking if that affects anything, they were also separate orders from the Rosalina one).

All this Gamestop news got me like:
Er, in-store pickup or ship to home? When did you order and was it ordered with anything else?

My GS had a Shulk in stock today, but I did not take it due to a bad paintjob. :/

A good amount of stores got some more MK drop shipped today, some might get them tomorrow. Not all stores though. If somebody asks me how many we have I won't be a dick and lie. It's going to be -20 with the wind chill so I don't want somebody waiting in line when they don't have to. It's one per customer though, and tickets are handed out.
Hey, at least it's not comb over Shulk.
...I'm afraid to check my own Shulk now. o-o;

Ship to home.
It's in the same order as others I've already gotten but that didn't stop them from shipping me Pit and Falcon that were part of other orders.
I've had Bowser and Toon Link since Feb 1st they could have cancelled them then if them being a split order was a problem.
Order was placed in early December

If you're in the US may wanna try store locator on Gamestop's website? looks like a lot of stores in my area got him in the past 1-2 days
Basically I shouldn't waste my time, which I appreciate. Still I would like to know if I would be fighting over the few spares or if they are just going to turn everyone away.
