.- The first one to tell me which ONE amiibo is not available in the pic receives an internet brofist and high five from me

.- Shitton of Lucarios, Ikes, Bowsers, Toon Links

.- Sheik a bit less and even less Rosalina, which is going for 36.99 euros right now in the German amazon.

.- There are a ton of amiibos here, I had to step back to take the pic but that's the whole area, nothing else to Mario's or Ike's sides.

I find amazing Little Mac is inexistent over there (And anywhere, really)

Damn.
 
So quick question to continue with my previous post. Assuming I can't find Rosalina or Shulk, what Wave 3 character would make for a good giveaway, in case I need to do a backup? Perhaps Ike or Sheik if I can find one of them? I'd prefer to not do Bowser or Toon Link since I'm sure two won't be as hard and I'd rather give away an amiibo considered uncommon or rare.
 
Man I fucked up!!! I thought I preordered Sheik. Turns out. I didn't. Thank god I just order one from Amazon.co.uk before she goes super rare. But in Germany they just call all "rares" commons because sweet god that photo is nuts. I wish I lived there right now :(
 
Only Bestbuy has Meta-knight in the US and it sold out weeks ago.

Yeah I know since I missed out on it. =P I know Play Asia had it available a couple of days ago but I couldn't get to it fast enough since I was at work. Was just wondering if there were any other places that were selling it.

everything but little mac,>_<

I swore I'd find it in this damn store but if it's not here, it's gone for good (at regular price, that is).

I don't think I've ever seen an amiibo section here with even a quarter of the selection
 
Mind adding the sparklies to my avatar? Changed it recently cause I love FF14 too much lol.

Anything for you Katt! ACNLGAF and SwapNoteGAF unite!

I wonder if the rest of the gang will ever have another cool SwapNote type thing to make an OT for. :(

Looks to be missing Zelda I think.
 
But that assumes they even have that many of those ones. And to this day, I've still never seen a Luigi Amiibo in real life. No joke.
Wow, really? I usually see at least once of them at Target, Meijer, &/or GameStop whenever I checked.

Bizarre. It's reached the point Where I could buy Zelda, Diddy, or Luigi in-person at will if I still needed to. They're just sitting there in every store I stroll through.

And that pic is missing both Zelda and Mac as far as I can tell.

that's hilarious, Toys R Us has barely a third of that in the US, everywhere else is worse.
 
How much are those Villagers? .____.

in this store everything is an Euro more expensive, 14.99 euro each amiibo

it comes to around US $17.00 dls.

I will share a litl secret here: I bought a Rosalina IN A STORE, I grabbed it with my hand and paid it with real money .yis yis yis ^_^
 
LOL

And you should watch The Wind Rises its pretty darn good.
Speaking of Miyazaki...
I just got this beauty a few days ago...

Now I need that region B bluray player to play them.... :/








Also On topic lol sorry couldn't resist love me some Miyazaki.

I went to target today... and guess what they happen to have in the back but couldn't sell...
Starts with an R ends with an a....

I go to play games for ONE HOUR! And I almost missed the most beautiful thing ever posted in this thread...

How do I get one of these without selling my soul?!

Hit up the closest Toys R Us here (NW Indiana) which is about 45-50 min away for me. In the main Amiibo section they probably had around 16-20+ Bowsers, none of the other ones, though there was an empty spot for Toon Link. I did find a smaller section by the registers that was seemingly untouched with probably 12 more Bowsers and 8 Toon Links (as well as some of the more common ones), so I grabbed a Toon Link. It's one of the better looking ones in my opinion.
 
Wait, we're going to need a new OT already? How many pages can each thread be?

We've got a quite a ways to go, but I'm really proud of my entry:

Amiibo Discussion Thread 3: Where dates are made up and the preorders don't matter

I'll remind you guys in ~60 pages. :P

I would pay $20 just for a Villager, it's 10x better than paying $50-100
 
I've been out of the loop for a bit, do we have any idea on what a ship date on Wave 3 from Amazon (US) might be? I thought it was like February 13th or so when I pre-ordered a few of them a while back, but my order is showing no delivery estimate. I need to know BEFORE they ship, if it's going to be in the next few days I need to cancel it :(
 
So I went to my local game shop today and saw a Mario chess board:

Making Luigi the queen? Come on Nintendo, as if Luigi doesn't have it bad enough already living in his brothers shadow.

Also seriously Bowser, is this the only pose you have?!

Sup Amiibo GAF. I just hit my local Toys R Us. Got a Toon Link, 2 Bowsers, and 3 CAPTAIN FALCONS

Meadowbrook WV. Near the Pennsylvania border.

Also I am now about to sell my haul on Amazon. I got a shitload of student loans and I plan on making as large a dent as I can this year to get my debt to income ratio down as low as possible to get a decent loan finance rate. Any bit I don't owe is more I can use on a down deposit and the more on the down deposit the lower my finance charges and the better the house! Scalping like mad since my local Toys R Us is in the middle of nowhere and I keep finding stuff I can pull profits and make payments with.

Goin all in on this dream. Here is the haul.

Marth, Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Little Mac, Fox, Zelda, 4 Captain Falcons, 2 Bowsers, Toon Link.
I am amazed people can be so tone deaf to a thread. Why would you come into a "community" thread where people share information and sell at cost to each other and brag about scalping. If you have even read a few pages in here you would see that is a very unpopular topic and to post pictures and brag about your "haul" is pretty rude in my opinion. People in the thread use email tags to hide info from lurkers and scalpers and someone comes in here boasting about it? The internet never fails to surprise me. That's not really going to make a dent in any debt. Zelda and Bowser are common. Other than the holy trinity it's not even worth the time or fees. I would suggest staying in the buy sell trade thread.

That's your opinion.

I don't scalp, but I'm always interested in the reasons that people do. This is the Amiibo thread after all, and scalping, for better or worse, is one facet to the subject.
 
Worth it to risk unregistered mail from this amiami website? Have rosalina, meta knight, and lucario preordered and ready for payment. Never did any kind of mail like this though.
