Amiibo Discussion Thread 2: I Got 99 Pre-orders But A Rosalina Ain't One

Status
Not open for further replies.
Just got my el-cheapo Japanese Wii Fit Trainer.

Man. She's so lame, especially compared to the more recent figures. Wonky proportions, huge ice boot, and mine has a weird paint mark basically on her crotch. I can only assume she had an accident on her way over from Japan.

But, hey, sub $20 with shipping, so I'm cool with her.
 
What is everyone's personal rank for Wave 3? Not in terms of rarity or anything, but in terms of how excited you are for that particular character? For me:

1. King Dedede
2. Rosalina
3. Mega Man
4. Bowser
5. Meta Knight
6. Toon Link
7. Ike
8. Shulk
9. Lucario
10. Sonic
11. Sheik

1. Mega Man
2. Rosalina
3. Shulk
4. Toon Link
5. Sonic
 
I've got 11 of them so far, had to start putting them somewhere, so I went and bought some blu-tack and just slapped them all up on a gray wall next to my couch. Thoughts? poorly aligned right now I guess, but as the collection grows that problem might go away.



Man...


It just looks so much better actually out of the box and without the clunkiness that comes with keeping them in. I get that some of you guys want to keep them sealed, but I just don't see it looking good for display that way :(

Yeah, I get what you're saying. Maybe it just looks good to me compared to a blank gray wall. I dunno if I'd bring people into my room with this setup :/ :P
 
ZIIIINGOOOOOOOOOOO!!

My two orders from Amazon went through so NOW I have a second WFT that I can gift and my first Kirby which apparently is rare-ish in EU.

Hell yeah!
Wish I had the money to buy more 'cause at stores in my town I can find Marth, Villager... but I only ended up buyin' one each for me
 
Nice. That could indicate that they have the figures in their warehouse already, or maybe they're on their way from the factories to Target's warehouse. Exciting, no?

Please do update us on your order progress in the future as it will help us figure out if our local targets are even going to have these on the 1st.

Will do. I'll let you guys know.
 
Haven't followed this thread since the first one but what would be my best option at the moment to get a Wii Fit Trainer? I bought Marth and Villager when they were in stock at amazon UK but i didn't get WFT which I regret so I might aswell try to find one now.

Should I just use an ebay seller or import it from somewhere...? I'd rather not pay an arm and a leg for shipping and all that, that and WFT doesn't seem as expensive compared to Marth/Villager.
 
Wow I never realized Rosalina was that popular.


1. Meta Knight
2. Toon Link
3. Lucario
4. Mega Man
5. Rosalina
6. Bowser
7. King Dedede
8. Shulk
9. Ike
10. Sonic
11. Sheik

Ike would be much higher if the figure didn't look like shit (so far).
 
1. Rosalina & Luma
2. Mega Man
3(t). Sheik
3(t). Ike
5. Meta Knight
6. Sonic
7. Toon Link
8. King Dedede
9. Meta Knight
10. Shulk
11. Lucario

Here is the antique cabinet I got. As you can see the lighting in my basement and cabinet is not very good, which is why I want some non obtrusive LEDs for inside it.

There is only figure missing, an Eren Yager figma. I was trying to fix his torso, which was not locking in place. The rod for the stand snapped right off. Gotta try and fix that some how.

I am very jealous of that Kingdom Hearts Timeless River figurine! I just posted the other day that I just found out about the Formation Arts line of KH figurines and I love them all but they're sooo expensive! That Timeless River one is definitely one of my favorites that I've seen though!
 
What do you think are the chances for a Banzai or Bullet Bill Amiibo?
I have an awesome Bullet Bill figurine atm but it doesn't look right between all the Amiibos and it's also smaller. :(

Its pretty sweet. Although, I am confused with the FA line. My cousin got one for Sora on top of Traverse Town or something and its quadrupled in size. But this one is like a chess piece. What gives?

My Wave 3 wishlist is just Mega Man, Toon Link and Shulk, if any GameStops actually have an in-store stock on day one. I just collect characters I'm really into that also have good figurines (so Sheik is out, because the figure doesn't look too hot).
 
Heading back home. Still cancer free. Want to hug everyone here. Want to cry. Still going strong.

When I get back around 2 I'll make the google doc. Just a reminder I need your email if you want to be added to it. Just PM it. Google doc is for listing members in the community and the Amiibos they don't have. Will help us see who needs what to trade with or sell to or to look for extras.

Hey that's fantastic news! This thread just feels like a happier place since you arrived. No more just a bunch of posts moaning about scalpers...well, still some of that lol.

For the Google doc, are we also telling you which ones we have dupes of at this time? I potentially have dupes of wave 3 as long as my orders all go through. After the TRU cancellation debacle, I kind of panic ordered full sets of wave 3 at other retailers ;P

Glad to hear.
Forgot to say thanks about warming up the thread and adding the fun little amiibo markers to people's avatars. Once i'm off real pic January i'll be joining in as well.
Also when you have that doc completed I can add it to the OP if you want.

That's a great new, I'm glad everything is okay!
 
Thanks for all the well wishes guys! :)

Almost home. My gf is driving me back. And to answer your question, we will also have a category that lists the extra amiibos we have (so dupes).

Donkey Kong has shipped. Nice, 9 days early, lol. Not sure why he was so hard to get around here.

Have to tackle the harder to get once commons now (DK, Samus, Yoshi).
