*sees amiibo* "Aw, man, all of those I have. Oh wait, I don't have Peach. Well surely I wouldn't win the only amiibo on there I don't...."

Peach: Zonic

Well hot damn! Now I just have to wait for Fox & I'll have all the MK8 Mii costumes unlocked.
 
Let´s make our own T-Shirts.

With Black Jack.

And Hookers.

But no, really, I can get them made here for about 9 bucks and shipping should be another 5, or just lets make a design and everyone finds a way to make it happen. I made Smash T-Shirts when i was not able to win the smash shirt at comic con last year, so in my saltyness I made this (Sorry for the watermark, I cant find the original one):

I'm down. Let's make it happen, amiibo-gaf!

Congrats, Winners!

Do you think retailers are smart enough to stock extra Toad for the Captain Toad plus new character amiibo demand? Yes, preorder it.

I know, but I'm gonna be super busy tomorrow, and I know Rosalina didn't take long at all to sell-out on pre-orders (30 minutes, right?). I always planned on pre-ordering, but if pre-orders open tomorrow, I'm still afraid I'm gonna miss it.
 
Yay, so that's 4 amiibo that I'm waiting on now. Peach, Wii Fit Trainer (props to another member for sending that to me), Marth, & Fox.

Congrats to the other winners and thanks again for doing this. This should help my budget just a little bit & hopefully now I can see about possibly buying a spare Shulk &/or Rosalina for anyone that can't find them in their area. Getting my wisdom teeth removed a few days before college started screwed up both my dad's & my budget (couldn't donate plasma, missed out on about $80), & it doesn't help I'm having to sell some of my older, more rarer games like MvC2 on PS2 & Xenoblade on Wii.

I have an extra Fox. Need him? Can give for free.
 
Omg! Now that's another rare amiibo crossed off my needed list. I can't wait to add Fox and now WFT to my team!

Thank you so much for not only doing this but for also helping out a great cause. Grats to the other winners!

Crap, I'm going to be busy too. Toad is definitely the first one to add to cart when it goes live.
 
Is it really that much better? spent days making the Google document and building up all the info over a week.

Edit: can it be used online? Like I can link it to people in the thread? It's also private? I'll PM you. I guess I'll run it too, but I need some time tonight to look into it. I'd be willing to create and run this and move over the Google doc. But I have some questions.
Sent you a PM, let me know what you think.
 
I had the first Shulk pre-order in at my local Gamestop, and they didn't have a date yet when I checked last week.

Maybe it's happening.

Maybe at last I can really feel it.

Yes I was glad ive been in everyday asking and nobody else was in store so he finally gave up and said they had them in back I ask if he was saying that to get rid of me so he said hang on went in back wala brought out shulk.

Did it look as good as his stock photo? Plenty of his belts and whatnot? :p

It did look good I didnt get to do any hard inspection on it (apparently he wasnt even supposed to say they had them) :) but it look great from a quick glance.

Well that confirms it. Thanks a lot. Fuck. So nervous about getting one. Can you ask him if they are getting any non-pre orders in for the 1st? Also I placed all of my wave 3 pre orders on GameStop.com but selected in store pick up. Do I print out my order and just show up to the store I selected? Will they have most of my stuff?

Lastly, are they getting all of Wave 3 on the 1st? Does he have all of them in the back?

Wondering if the 6th and 20th delays is for Wal Mart only.

Edit: I do know each store is different with regards to stock allocation. But if one store has all of Wave 3 ready for the 1st, that means that all of Wave 3 is technically out on the first.

He said he had all my preorders ready I didnt pry further. Except to ask if they had extras he just said yes of SOME.

This is MEGATON news to me. Shulk is probably my most wanted amiibo at the moment, and I missed out on pre-orders. I just hope there are extras come Feb. 1...

I know right :) so happy!

Did you get any indication if they will have any supply beyond preorders?

Yes SOME.


So I hope this is all right. So happy to see shulk in person:)
 
I have an extra Fox. Need him? Can give for free.
I'm still waiting to see if B&H ships out my Fox & Marth order. I greatly appreciate the offer, though.

So now I'm missing Pit, Zelda, Pikachu, Little Mac, & Villager now, not counting Wave 3. I'm rather surprised at how many I've gotten so far. Hopefully considering I can start donating plasma again this week, my budget should slowly get back to normal.
 
Noooo all of the characters are amazing! Yes, they all have personality defects, but that's what makes them so wonderful! Asuka <3 <3 <3

Ok then, PenPen is the only universally likable character in the series.

All the others are optional.

(Pulling your leg, I like Rei)
 
So bit of a weird question, but for those who open them up and display them, do you still save the packaging? Personally, it might take up some room in my closet, but I kind of like keeping it since I try to open them carefully where I can put them back in for whatever reason.

Nah, I toss it. My amiibo are my buds!

Yup! I've been keeping all of mine neatly organized in my closet. Even the Mario one, which was my first, that I opened like a neanderthal is still in there. :P

I haven't unboxed mine yet since I don't have a display but once I do I'll probably keep the boxes for a while and then try to sell them on eBay.
 
Heh. Nowinstock. Do you remember my Rosalina Stock alarm clock? It's been upgraded. To absurd levels. My goal is to beat NowInStock.

Nice Im using my own also at the moment. I just recommend that to ppl :)

Btw how familiar are you with NFC? Ive been messing with a pi, arduino, and an nfc reader to see i can do anything with the amiibo.
with an end game of seeing if its possible to modify anything at any level with the data they write to the console or even create clones.

I keep em too cause I like the way the boxes look and I figure I could maybe make something out of them.
