Yes, our Line group is growing, and the real-time Alerts are incredibly helpful. You can help us and yourselves by joining and being an extra set of eyes reporting availability for amiibos.

PM me, CH4OS, ThisBeJason, Diggeh, etc for an invite, it's a fast, easy, and effective way to stay in the know. Do it!

Wait.
I join this group and then I'm made aware of Wave 4 pre-orders as soon as someone else in the group notices?
Hah. This sounds like a deal, if true.

 

[Tanukid]

Uuuuuugh! Now they're just messing with me! The moment I read through twitter 3 Ds comes up and goes! DX

 

[Damian.]

I got to it a minute after it was on NowInStock and still missed it.

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Mine went through, but the button was never red for me. I fear a cancellation incoming.

I had grey buttons when I ordered my Sonic and MM I believe and they went through. Here's hoping that isn't the case for you or me on D3.

 

[SalvaPot]

I go to pee and come back and DDD its sold out again, ha!

 

[superNESjoe]

Nowinstock is not fast enough. Don't depend on it.

 

[Damian.]

That sucks, what's a better method to catch these seconds long windows?

 

[-Horizon-]

So how many of you didn't go to sleep?

 

[Ludist210]

So how many of you didn't go to sleep?

Last night? My daughter was fussy most of the night, so I didn't sleep much...not because of amiibo though.

 

[RobFox64tm]

Haven't received my pick up confirmation yet for Meta Knight at Best Buy, but my status does say "looking for stock at Vacaville location," so that's something I guess. I pre-ordered very early on, so if I get cancelled, I'll be pretty pissed off.

 

[Rezae]

Another Dedede missed.... for like the 3rd time in the past day. I've got a Sonic NIB for trade straight up for him (or Meta Knight... or Rosalina...).

I don't think Sonic is an equal trade, but hopefully someone helps you out.

My gray button orders have all shipped.

That's the idea, yeah. Feel free to download the Line App and join us; the more the better.

 

[FalconSabre]

So how exactly does this Line app work?

 

[Kriken]

Woo, got my email to pick up Ike tomorrow at Best Buy

Oh and Mega Man and Meta Knight, but who cares about those two?

Spoiler

;p

 

[Crom]

If my extra DeDeDe comes in I will trade you DeDeDe for Sonic. Can't get him for the life of me.

 

[MADGAME]

I'll trade a new, sealed NA DeDeDe (in hand now) for a new, sealed NA Meta. Let me know.

 

[Tanukid]

Manged to get Sonic, but can not get 3Dee! How can something so fat go so fast?! D8<

 

[BumblebeeCody]

Welcome back. I noticed that you got banned but I can't find any ground reason why you got banned. I presume that post got deleted, right?

Where have you been for the last week?

Spoiler

I stalked your post history

Fair enough people may not understand my satire posts. I mean I do that frequently some people may not get it.
But I got banned for this:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=151722410&postcount=26
Yeah no joke (can post the ban message later).

Oh well. WAVE 4 TOMORROW.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Oh well. WAVE 4 TOMORROW.

Wait...what??

 

[evangd007]

My gray button orders have all shipped.

I'll feel better once I get a confirmation e-mail.

I'm wary after my Majora's Mask new 3DS cancellation from Target.

 

[Blue Namagem]

So how exactly does this Line app work?

You download it to your phone, sign up for a free account, and it'll be a chatting app running in the background. For best results, you join both the general Chat and Alerts, then mute the general Chat. That way, you receive notifications only when someone posts an alert of amiibo availability.

 

[IntelliHeath]

That's the idea, yeah. Feel free to download the Line App and join us; the more the better.

Please check your PM!

Very cool. Sent a PM to CH4OS, so hopefully I'll be added in soon.

 

[Rezae]

Sorry I should have been more clear. I'm looking for DeDede, Rosalina, or Meta Knight.

I have an extra Sonic (maybe 2, 1 in hand now) and Lucario. and I MAY have an extra Ike and Mega Man, but waiting to find out for sure. I also don't care about regions or box condition.

That...does not seem ban worthy but I'm not a mod so I shouldn't get into this whole thing. Glad you're back though

Oh well. WAVE 4 TOMORROW.

Wait whaaa?

Don't know if you saw my message but I will likely have an extra DeDeDe that I can trade you for Sonic. PM me if interested

 

[Blue Namagem]

I PMed you, just in case.

 

[Saint Gregory]

The last of my wave 3 Amiibos should be arriving for BestBuy today. Where the hell is wave 4?!?!?!?

Are they going to just stealth drop them from now on instead of putting up preorders?

That is a ... weird ban but okay.

BUT WHAT DO YOU KNOW THAT WE DON'T??!

 

[jlscool]

Just got an email about my in-store pickup for Meta Knight will be available tomorrow at Best Buy.

 

[MaverickHunterAsh]

I've still got a NiB Fox and Toon Link for trade if anyone's interested!

Oh well. WAVE 4 TOMORROW.

Wait, what? Since when? And at what retailers?

 

[Bulzeeb]

Oh well. WAVE 4 TOMORROW.

explain please :S

 

[That Wont Fit In There]

WAVE 4?! If so, I'll be pre ordering all of them in store.

 

[CH4OS]

FYI about joining the LINE group.

I am getting all your PMs guys, and I'll shuffle through them and get you guys invited to the room probably on my lunch break. You could also try PMing Namagem and he might be able to get you in a little sooner.

Spoiler

And if wave 4 goes up before my lunch break... I am deeply sorry. Please understand.

 

[MADGAME]

Gotcha, my mistake. Your post wasn't convoluted, I was overzealous seeing a potential Meta trade, he is the last one I need to complete this frustrating wave.

 

[Fandangox]

GS further delayed my Ike order. I think I probably should just go and see if I can find it somewhere.

Spoiler

but I have no time anymore

 

[OmarLexus]

Is a sealed WFT, Marth and Villager for MM CE with the Skull Kid statue a fair trade?

And is it true that Marth and other amiibo might be showing up again in the future?

Per NoA, Marth is getting a reprint. Don't know about the rest.

 

[SalvaPot]

I think it is a fair trade, the three amiibos retail for $39 and are worth about $120 together on ebay, the Skull Kid retailed for $50 but its going for about $130 on ebay

If you don´t need the amiibos and want the figure, go for it.

(Personally I´ll just trade 2 for the skull kid, but I am greedy as fuck)

Also FYI, Skull kid is a plastic figure, not a statue. Just want to get that out there as I thought it was a statue too (or at least resin).

Shia LaBeouf yelling "BUMBLEBEE!!!"

You can't just drop that and walk away.

 

[theSlacker]

Don't fear it. Think the last time he was up on Target the button was never red and a bunch of people have reported their's as shipped. Me included. Just really wish I didn't miss out on Ike last night.

 

[kunonabi]

My Mega Man just shipped from Amazon. Got a little worried since the notification email started with "We're sorry..."

 

[Zomba13]

Let go from my job today. On the plus side £55 worth of Amiibo arrived which very quickly seems like a lot of money.

Losing a job is never easy, my wife was just laid off and it's having a pretty big effect on us.
