Anyone's tracking from Target not show up in UPS tracking?

2 of my orders say shipped, but there's no info at UPS site, and it "shipped" on the 14th or so.
All others are good and set to arrive Saturday.

Now I wish I had jumped on those Amazon orders when I had the chance.

 

[Korosenai]

So if I can't get a Metaknight tomorrow, I might have an extra Dedede that I'll be able to trade. Just throwing that out there for now but I'll probably post it again this weekend.

 

[Gartooth]

Wait foreign Amazon's are preventing Amiibo imports now?

 

[Zonic]

Anyone that pre-ordered Mega Man &/or Sonic from GameStop. Did you get the call about them being available Wednesday? I'm at college right now, so I don't know if I got the call or not.

 

[SmackAttack]

Uh, so, why is GameStop actually calling my roommate to inform him that Amiibos are now one per household, and that they have very limited supply?

Because they have and they are. Ike is limited to one and will be very limited. Any pre-order before Dec. 26 (?) should be good. Others might have to wait until Spring.

 

[Fox Mulder]

So do I have to wait until "spring" to get DeDeDe, Ike and Mega Man from GameStop?

I just got a call from some 800 number that was gamestop saying my king dedede order would be available on Wednesday. Sounds like I'm good since people were saying they're delayed into "spring".

 

[Dominator]

GameStop coming in clutch with these 4 today!

Group shot that looks terrible cause there are too many lol

Can't complain about my Ike, looks good to me.

 

[H1PSTER]

I want all five that will be released tomorrow.

I doubt that I will get all five.... Am cry.

 

[spyroflame0487]

Preordered the last 4 at GameStop on 1/1.
Ike delayed until spring, Dedede in the summer. Guess I didn't make the cut.

Sanic and Mega no word on them yet. Still gonna try...

You got a nonwonky sword!

 

[Lambtron]

Trying to decide if it's worth it to swing by Best Buy before work tomorrow to try to grab a MetaKnight. I already bought one from Japan since I assumed it was going to be a shitshow. I'll maybe swing by tonight and see how many they're going to have...

 

[Salaadin]

GameStop just called. Dedede for me next week. So relieved

 

[DooD1234]

Yes, just got a phone call I can pick up Ike on the 2/25. And yes they said it limited to 1 per person per household.

But they said my DDD is delayed to summer. Personally I can wait for him as long as I get my Ike and Megaman.

Now where can I import DDD considering European amazon seem to have him out of stock.

 

[TheBlackAdept]

No call on MegaMan yet. Got the call for Ike and called the local store to check about MM. They said he's in transit so could show up anytime over the next week.

 

[esmith08734]

A pregnant lady showed me the way to the roof. I am going to camp out here for a few hours. My BestBuy has 2 Meta Knights. My other one has 34 but that's for babies who take the easy way out.

My plan is to lower myself into the bathroom after closing, lace up my PF Flyers, and make sure both hands have access to full cans of mace. I will sprint across the store, pushing and shoving anyone that ones my way, and grab one of two Meta Knights off the amiibo section near the video games.

Will report back.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

GameStop called and said my Ike and MM would be available on Wed. Later than I thought but at least it's not spring or summer sheesh.

I've got Sonic and Mega Man pre-ordered for in-store pickup back on 1/1, but have yet to hear anything from them.

Amazon US, $25 for the Japanese version if you have prime.

 

[Thoraxes]

Not sure on MM, but a memo went around to GS about Ike. Sometime next week if you preordered before December 26, otherwise delayed until the spring I think.

Good thing I got my order in on Dec. 19th.

 

[Drago]

Preordered the last 4 at GameStop on 1/1.
Ike delayed until spring, Dedede in the summer. Guess I didn't make the cut.

Sanic and Mega no word on them yet. Still gonna try...

Everyone is getting Sonic and Mega Man no matter when they preordered, but I'm pretty sure they're still gonna be preorder only

 

[Infernoabyss]

I got a call saying ike and dedede will be avaialble next Wednesday, welp i thought it was this friday ._.

This is gamestop btw

Just a heads up, bathrooms are opened up last. So the front door will be open before you even step foot in the store.

Spoiler

 

[Dominator]

You got a nonwonky sword!

Got any pics of a wonky one? Haven't really seen many pics of Ike.

 

[Thoraxes]

GameStop called and said my Ike and MM would be available on Wed. Later than I thought but at least it's not spring or summer sheesh.

They gave you that much of an advance notice? My store just calls as they come in.

 

[LumpOfCole]

I preordered Dedede in late December and Gamestop calls me to tell me "loljk, you cannot have until late summer"

Guess preordering means nothing with every store now.

 

[DooD1234]

Amazon US, $25 for the Japanese version if you have prime.

Know a good price I can find for little Mac?

 

[rjinaz]

Can't help you there. That's the one amiibo I still need.

Some might think you're kidding, but I don't doubt you

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

All of my 3Bs have shipped from Best Buy except for Mega Man, who's not even showing Preparing yet. WTF, has anyone else's US BB Mega Man shipped yet?

 

[Insaniac]

I just got the call myself about Ike. He'll be available on Wednesday.

got the call too.. i had 2 preordered

 

[KirbYuuYuu]

I preordered Dedede in late December and Gamestop calls me to tell me "loljk, you cannot have until late summer"

That 3rd OT title

 

[Dominator]

Wait, my GameStop just called me. Told me Dedede for summer and Ike next Wednesday. Uhhhhh lol

We only had 2 pre-orders for Dedede and only got 2 so those calls must be wrong.

 

[Spades]

Managed to pick up a Japanese DDD for £15 delivered on Ebay just now as a backup incase I can't pick one up tomorrow. Just Meta Knight and Shulk now...

 

[DooD1234]

Can't help you there. That's the one amiibo I still need.

Yeah, this dude is an actual unicorn. Missing from my wave 2.

 

[Hero Prinny]

DDD for me Wednesday. Legoooo still waiting on ike and mega tho

 

[Thoraxes]

Now I'm worried I won't get a call with a delay or confirming their arrival next week lol.

I only need DDD and Ike to go!

 

[mooseman]

All of my 3Bs have shipped from Best Buy except for Mega Man, who's not even showing Preparing yet. WTF, has anyone else's US BB Mega Man shipped yet?

Still waiting on mine as well

 

[spookyfish]

Still waiting on mine as well

My Best Buy Mega Man shows the same.

 

[Goldenelementxl]

Ike, Mega Man and Sonic all delivered today from Target!!!!! The projected delivery date was Saturday. DDD looks like next week.

 

[Radian8]

WHOA! Forget the amiibo, let's see some better pics of all your sweet Sonic statues!

You should see the rest of the shelves

 

[That Wont Fit In There]

I'm seeing all these call posts and I'm here praying I can get my Ike and MM next week. Someone hold me.

 

[ThisBeJason]

Wait foreign Amazon's are preventing Amiibo imports now?

Amazon.fr now - Amazon.ca + Amazon.fr are the two that prevent them so far

Anyone's tracking from Target not show up in UPS tracking?

Which Amiibo are you talking about? My MM and Sonic Target orders are fine in tracking, but my DDD order is not showing up yet either. I'd wait until tomorrow for actual tracking info

 

[Enthus]

If anyone is able to pick up an extra Meta Knight tomorrow, I'd love to trade you for a sealed US Rosalina!

 

[Drago]

Amazon.fr now - Amazon.ca + Amazon.fr are the two that prevent them so far

Gonna cry if Amazon UK starts blocking amiibo imports before Wave 4 ships out. I'm counting on them and was expecting a stress free wave 4 but now I can worry about a potential import block!

I hope they don't as well. I feel like they will change people's orders to 1 character per account though, thats what Amazon.de did to me for wave 3B

 

[Plinko]

My Gamestop said my Dedede will be in on Wednesday. Thankful.

 

[batfax]

Got myself a robot call from Gamestop about my Ike. Called my local store and apparently they're going to be calling and handing them out to people who reserved them one at a time in two waves. One sooner, one in the Spring. Hope my 12/31 order is in the first wave.

 

[Maengun1]

No call from my Gamestop yet :/

I just asked in person yesterday, too

 

[Diggeh]

Amiibo Thread 6 | My Thread 4 orders were delayed and canceled by GS and TRU

 

[levyjl1988]

Wave 4: Robin, Lucina, Charizard, Wario, PacMan, Ness

I wonder who will be announced for Wave 5? There's still:
Baby Bowser, Mr. Game & Watch, Gannondorf, Zero Suit Samus, Palutina, Falco, Jigglypuff, Greninja, Duck Hunt Trio, R.O.B, Captain Olimar, Dr. Mario, Dark Pit and Mewtwo.

Considering amazon.fr and possibly others are preventing NA from importing this is gonna be a challenge. Also the enforcement of limit 1-2 per household.

I can already guess which characters are gonna be rare, just the obscure characters the majority hasn't even heard of. I'm curious how the amiibo faces for Palutena and ZSS will look like. Lucina is looking to be terrible imo, with the only good looking female face so far is Rosalina surprisingly and also the rarest.
