Status says: In process. Also it says my payment has been verified but it's not at the preparing shipment stage.

Thanks for the info. When I called to have mine switched to delivery, they told me that it couldn't be changed, but my order was immediately updated...which confused the hell out of the representative, who then put me on hold and disconnected me, haha. Guess I'll try contacting customer service again tomorrow.

Best Buy is updating all of my wave 3 preorders for the release date of 2/1. Not sure if anyone else has reported this yet, but it looks like Best Buy is planning for their wave 3 release on the 1st.

Mine only say 2/1 for Sheik, Bowser, and Toon Link so far.

I got 1/30 for Meta Knight from Best Buy (Canada). I wonder if we'll get them two days early in Canada.

Unlike the Fire Emblem amiibos, I'm felling it this time.

I'm glad now that I managed to get one.

OK So it seems like all these retailers are waiting for date from Nintendo for availability for wave 4 before releasing

Do we have any idea what the date of release is for Wave 4? I feel like the Mario line will launch with MarioParty. Wave 4 in April?

 

[Jailer of Hope]

Shulk looks great!

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Shulk looks great!

He really does. God damn, wish I had ordered two =/

 

[wiibomb]

when was shulk releasing?

The Mario ones are 3/20. I've seen a 4/24 release date for Wave 4, but I think I saw that is for the UK.

Newegg has the MarioParty Wii U bundle with Mario up for preorder.
It also has all the exclusives listed as auto notify including Rosalina, Shulk, Meta-Knight, and Lucario... I don't think thats new but I was pretty sure the MarioParty bundle said notify before?

Didn't they have this up a week ago?

 

[lionpants]

Is the price going up for Wave 4 pre-orders everywhere?

Just got a bunch of emails from Game UK stating that they have gone up £4 but I keep the price cause I already had them pre-ordered.

 

[pete_clarf]

Didn't they have this up a week ago?

They did, but stopped taking pre-orders, so that part of it is new (again).

 

[Hazu]

Any pictures of Sonic or Megaman?

I thought it looked good, to be honest.

 

[doowrah]

I'd love to see Megaman pictures

 

[MarkusRJR]

Holy shit that Shulk Amiibo! <3

So happy I got him in time. Too bad Shulk is terrible in SSB though. :/

 

[Horohoro]

Didn't they have this up a week ago?

Said auto-notify other than for about 2 minutes late last week as far as I know I keep an eye here but not a constant one so... the other listing have been there for some time I think can't remember them being mentioned though?

What gets me is that PEGI rating on the box... and the ESRB rating beside it...

 

[Mononoke]

Oh okay. Just making sure I didn't order it twice lol

that is the closest I'll ever come to having a Monado replica. I'll continue to fantasize about this in the meantime:

 

[O.v.e.rlord]

Shulk is looking pretty dam good. Happy as hell I pre-ordered him now.

 

[MADGAME]

At that angle and pose, the look on Shulk's face is like "oh shit, I'm busted!" like he's tiptoeing away from a questionable act or sneaking out of someone't bedroom lol!

 

[SalvaPot]

Tomorrow I go to the USA to complete my Wave 1 collection (Mario, Link Yoshi, and Kirby left), they should be easy enough to get. I was thinking of just waiting until wave 3 so I can go get them while hunting, but eeh, I´m kinda paranoid.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Is that bannable offense if he passed it off as fake news.? I'm not sure how it work with faking amazon/ebay/retailer sites.

Maaaan Shulk looks ni-

...Confound it, lol. Doge Robin strikes again! Can't unsee it now.

It really does look like the best so far considering all of his belts and zippers.

Yeah, in the end I think you might be right. Better just say the truth anyway.

Who? Lion pants?

 

[motherxwolf]

best buy updated my release date for bowser, toon link and sheik to 2/1

What?

Pretty sure he's talking about the guy with the fake Luncina sold out image.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Naw, I was talking about this post.

Every time someone asks if they missed anything, I'm tempted to repost my Lucina's-sold-out image. Someone, tell me that's a bad idea.

Yeah, it probably isn't the best way to stay a member. But damn if I'm not tempted to do it everytime someone asks for an update.

 

[lionpants]

Well, bed-time. Hopefully nothing exhilarating happens while I sleep.

 

[SalvaPot]

So hey, AmiiboGAF, I need some help 8D

My GF has been planning on cosplaying as Lucina for a while now, she even had the Falchion made (Its very pretty!) but now she has enlisted in a group cosplay and they need a Robin...

My white wig is on the way. Any ideas how to make a Levin sword?

 

[Kai Dracon]

My local Gamestop here in PA confirmed they should have Shulk in feb 1st; I'm really starting to feel it.

Best way to make a sword is the old fashion way .
However quickly with plastic or something I don't know seek other ppl for that.

I wonder if those youtube guys who craft weapons based off of video games would ever make it

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Oh, so if Feb 1 is the day, is there anything that anyone hasn't preordered/secured yet that I should keep my eyes out for when I go for the Wave 4 preorder?

 

[Mononoke]

What?

Pretty sure he's talking about the guy with the fake Luncina sold out image.

Oops sorry. I thought he meant your fake Amiibo Club Nintendo post. Was confused.

My reselling money is for more amiibos, but tempting...

I dunno, I have no confidence in making stuff myself, even following a guide and with my knowledge in carpentry from highschool. Maybe I should just do the book, but then, that won´t beat the Falchion and I have to BE BETTER THAN EVERYONE.

Use the book as a last resort, go for the sword.

And good luck.

best buy updated my release date for bowser, toon link and sheik to 2/1

And I'm making my Feb. 1 plans now.

8 a.m., be at Target.

10 a.m., drop the girlfriend off at Toys R Us while I go to Best Buy.

11 a.m., drop the girlfriend off at one GameStop while I go to the other GameStop in the city.

Yes ... it will be perfect ...

Somewhere I got a steel Master Sword I made this way. Me and grandad made it when I was little he is a machinist. So it turned out marvelously I'll have go find it and send you some pics. Seriously fire brimstone do it. It's great. I'm half tempted to make some custom steel amiibos... first of course would be metal mario...

 

[Raggytash]

Hi, everyone. Game.co.uk just emailed me telling me the price for Robin, Ness, pac man and lucina have increased to £14.99. Wario and charizard are still £10.99.

I managed to snag the wario I missed earlier in the week, they are all up for pre order except Robin and lucina.
