I usually take into account shipping fees on Amazon, since places like Playasia or Amiami will charge almost 20 bucks for shipping.

But I can wait for it to get lower or trade. But apparently they're out and about in Japan, then?

Even Shulk has only been $30 with shipping on amazon a couple weeks back. And the dude is exclusive compared to the fire emblem crew.

I say wait or trade.

That's only a couple dollars less than the Lucina Figma is selling for.

Too bad preorders are closed.

Of course I already had 2 ordered lol

Looks like Best Buy is not listing Palutena for wave 5. What do you guys think, Target exclusive? Fits their pattern.

Considering Wave 5 is only 2 figures, it makes perfect sense for them to be retailer exclusives.

Fuck Nintendo

After hearing the horror stories with target being stupid in general...god I hope it doesn't go to them. I'd rather it go to walmart or toysrus.

 

[Shadoron]

Why are they listing Dark Pit with 5-29 release date? I thought wave 5 was delayed in the US?

Year is 2018 for all products so....

 

[friskykillface]

yeah my limit is retail + import which is like $20ish
i wont go above $30
Target getting all the ladies exclusive

dark pit could be best buy only too, we haven't seen target x wal mart x gamestops skus



1 or more exclusives per wave , welp

 

[MADGAME]

This is actually how fast I envision people rushing to Amiibo on 5/29 when the doors open

Dark Pit would actually fit with metaknight, I think.

Ugh

If that one Reddit post was legit, and Target was trying to get exclusives that appealed to women and girls, I think Palutena would fit that criteria.

 

[Zonic]

Considering I have a Target & I was lucky to nab Rosalina via their online site, I'd be (sort of) okay with Palutena.

If that one Reddit post was legit, and Target was trying to get exclusives that appealed to women and girls, I think Palutena would fit that criteria.

That....actually would make sense, given Rosalina & Jigglypuff.

.......THEN WATCH ZERO SUIT SAMUS BE TARGET EXCLUSIVE MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

 

[Toki767]

It's kind of silly that Wave 5 is just Dark Pit and Palutena and yet both will probably still be retail exclusive.

 

[Diggeh]

Someone should take 15 Little Macs & do what Blue Namagem did, including his wire frame alts.

Hard mode: Get all Villagers customized.

It's kind of silly that Wave 5 is just Dark Pit and Palutena and yet both will probably still be retail exclusive.

Both will go up at 3 AM for 5 minutes and sell out. Please understand.

Spoiler

And I'll probably be the one to alert it.

Man this was one of the amiibo figures I was aiming for too.

Then again my nearest Target is only about 15-20 minutes away, which is close to where my parents do most of their grocery shopping.

Now I'm scared that ZSS might be exclusive. D:

Its going to be Lily again at Target! Also GS is giving me a Robin/Lucina for giving them a bad review on Ness day!

 

[RootCause]

That's just great! So only 1,000 Palutena for NA.

[AdanVC]

Palutena is going to be Rosalina-ied all over again in 'merica, right?

 

[RootCause]

That is an optimistic amount.

Well someone's got to remain positive. :3

Well, Wikipedia says that Target operates 1,934 stores in the U.S. Let's assume half of them get 24 Palutenas and half of them get 12. That equals 34,812 Palutenas. Then there's an unknown number sold online. We can maybe assume that a total of 50,000 Palutenas will make it to market in the U.S.

[crimnos]

This is probably a fake, but supposedly a ROB prototype amiibo. I went ahead and ordered the last one, figured it would be a novelty if nothing else. I'll post about it if/when it arrives: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DD3-Amiibo-...080?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ae9970778

Pft, there is no math here, only pessimism.

 

[friskykillface]

its Ultron


R.O.B the god better not be exclusive

 

[Fox Mulder]

I think they're going to end the smash series with a whimper with retailer exclusives and little mac stock. They don't want to make game and watch, duck hunt, or R.O.B stuff.

 

[Curler]

Noooo make the exclusives stop!! I have a feeling Wave 5 would end up as exclusives...

 

[BBboy20]

So, any updates on those Splatoon amiibos?

 

[The12thGripper]

My friend just linked this to me, I didn't plan on ordering him from Play-Asia but did Dark Pit go up and sell out without anyone noticing?

he claims his store will get:

24 Jiggly
4 Robin,
4 Lucina.
12 Silver Marios.
12 Pacman
8 Charizard
8 Wario.
4 Each of Splatoon

what do we think?

[MicH]

More Pac-Man than Wario and Charizard? In Europe Pac-Man is almost as hard to get as the FE characters while Wario is the most common Amiibo from this wave (though not on a Diddy Kong or Luigi level)

Why the low Fire Emblem Stock, did they learn nothing from Awakening and/or previous Amiibo waves?

 

[skaflone721]

More like they didn't change their original numbers to account for demand at all yet.

These would have been the numbers whether these sold or not.

My Ness arrived from the UK today. On his way, he has walked, thought and fought. Yet through all this, he has never lost his courage. He has grown steadily stronger, though he has experienced the pain of travel many times.

If that's the case then I might actually be able to get a Jigglypuff..I just need Jigglypuff, Robin and Lucina..I already have everything else pre ordered from walmart.com

 

[iShouldGoPro]

Judging by the pictures, Robin looks the best of Wave 4 like I expected!

So Silver Mario confirmed in store on the 29th at Target?

And Greninja is gone and done right? They won't have any in store on the 29th at TRU?

[Mistle]

There are Marths in nearly every store I've checked in Melbourne australia. Bizarre sight!

Also easily finding meta knight, charizard, Ike, Sonic, etc

 

[Curler]

12 Silver Marios seems... low. What amazes me is that Nintendo has yet to officially announce it period, let alone what stores are even getting it :/

Maybe they'll announce Silver Mario on a direct near the release of wave 4.
