Now I just need a way to pre-order Lucario and I'm set for wave 3. To think there are still about 20 to go after that not counting DLC...

Edit: wow, thanks for the tip!
 
woot, rosalina pre-order secured.. I guess it's a good thing I randomly woke up at 4AM and couldn't fall back asleep.

now the only US retailer exclusive I need to secure is lucario.. wonder if those will open back up again anytime soon.
 
Oh man! I got the initial "Limited to 1 per person" message, but saw that I could add more. I didn't want to chance it just in case they went back and cancelled orders with more than one, haha. In any event, I used my sister's target account to order a second/spare :p

I think the one per order message you got was for the Service plan little box...unless you want three of those! ;o

I hope it stays up for awhile, I feel bad for the fellow gaffers sleeping right now

Honestly, all of us awake right now should order 3, so for when it most inevitabaly sells out soon, we'll be able to help out fellow gaffers.
 
toys r us opens at 7am, im debating being that kind of person that goes right when they open, that rumor of falcon, pit and luigi being there is tempting

EDIT : ya I have one I'll give to a fellow gaffer, still going strong almost a half hour in
 
Wow I managed to preorder 1 Rosalina. I tried to do it from my PC, but the preorder button wouldn't work. So I rushed to do it on my phone. Thank the Good Lord...
 
I am dedicating this post to my lovely fiancee for she pre-ordered Rosalina in the time between when I left work and now where she is sold out (About an hour commute). She da best!
 
thanks to the free shipping and 5% RED card discount, i ordered rosalina, toon link, mega man and ike from target. hope they pull through...

shulk pre-ordered at gamestop

haven't ordered lucario yet

not sure i even care about metal knight

i need to get a marth :(
 
good lord, rosalina's out already? it'sfreaking 4 in the morning! people are insane. either that or a lot of scalpers ordering in bulk :/
 
It's 6 in the morning.

Why am I up ordering a statuette of a woman holding a star.

I just ordered Diddy and Villager for $50 from Amazon UK to Canada.

I have bowser, shulk, megaman, and sonic preoredered at amazon but decided to pre-order them at target as well. I just cant trust amazon and it is so easy to cancel one or the other

well some people are claiming they ordered 17... who knows if that is accurate

as for me, i work nights and i usually miss out on ordering stuff cause orders go live during the day or afternoon on most stuff i'm eyeing. i'm pretty happy right now
 
Make your order and they calculate the shipping.

Sorry it's not concrete but they are fairly reasonable for stuff I've had shipped to Australia. Ask around in FigureGAF for a ballpark for what shipping may be for your locality.
it doesn't tell you the shipping until after you place the order. :( i don't want to get stuck buying a thing i dont want to pay high shipping for.

anyone that got multiple rosalinas, i will trade a shulk for one (assuming gamestop lets me keep my preorders)
 
Finally managed to get a Kirby for my son! For some reason Kirby is pretty popular in Italy and I missed the chance to fetch it on release date.
 
People are only able to pre order Rosalina now?

I was able to do that about 2 weeks ago on UK Amazon.

Yes, because it's been up to Target when to put her up as she's exclusive in the US through them.

Had a feeling She would be rarest of these.

Haha! It definitely could've been that. I probably should've read it closer, but I thought it might've just been a glitch in the system like yesterday morning and wanted to get that order in :p
 
Damn a half hour to pre-order , people on the east coast are going to be pissed waking up to this. She is such a popular character, it is a shame she is exclusive

OMG i just read that Target does not do pre-orders in store for "toys" for videogames, that means only way for USA people to get it is by going that morning fighting the scalpers or importing it, such a shame
 
I hope Target will get more of her. The other retailers had their exclusives up for such a long time, that it's rediculous for Target to run out that fast. Hopefully they were just gauging the interest, and will allow for more preorders while also placing a limit on how many you can buy.

Heh that's how much my Rosalina and Shulk from Amazon UK are as well...I'm sorta glad I already ordered but I'll cancel I'd EB let's me preorder tomorrow.
 
I hope Lucina isn't a retailer exclusive. I'm not sure I can go through this again. Making these waifu amiibos exclusive to one retailer is just asking for trouble.
 
It makes no sense. Gamestop has an exclusive, albeit not as popular as Rosalina, and it has been available for weeks. They even push it to gamers that are there buying other items. Unless Target is selling way less in quantity the preorder should not have went that fast this early in the morning, even if scalpers were grabbing 15 at a time. Maybe they saw the rush and took it down to limit one per customer. Whatever the reason I hope it goes live again for those that missed her. I am sure there is going to be some angry members in 2 to 6 hours.

Target and Toys R Us are not major retailers where I live and I have to drive at least 60 miles to reach either one. Sucks because I wasn't able to secure a Lucario pre-order and now Rosalina. :/

Seriously, and it's the Waifus I want most. Imagine how hard someone like Palutena will be to get, also ZSS.
