Thanks for the heads up; I was able to go through the full order process and checkout. Now it's just a matter of seeing whether the order will stick.
 
Anyone know about scarcity in Europe? I managed to get ahold of Marth and Villager yday. Only seen them in one shop all over town. Fox and Pit is everywhere atm.
 
Is there any word on making Amiibo for every character, has Nintendo said anything?

And oh my, I really want all Koopalings now.

Nintendo has said that is the plan for a while now. If they do more wave 3-sized releases, they'll easily get through the roster before the end of the year. With the rumors of Mario Party 10 being the next big game for full-on Amiibo support, they would have to get those out of the way.
 
Luigi had at least 40 amiibo, maybe 60 on the shelves of him at my local Toys R Us, and is now cleared out. He was at only one out of four stores I went to this weekend. This is madness.
 
So. Anyone nab a Rosalina tonight? I have been checking incessantly, but have yet to see it go live so far...

Wait... Rosalina is still going up every once in a while?!? So Target lied about her being over? What was that site that reminded when items were available on a website again?
 
Congrats! Do you plan on getting more?


In other news I just saw a Pit on eBay with bids all the way up 61 dollars. And auction isn't even over yet!

Hopefully stores start stocking it more or it shows up on amazon prime. I decided to import and it's not too bad price wise.
 
So, are everybody's Best Buy orders still in Limbo?

So far so good from online in-store pick-up orders. They had Zelda for me on the 17th and Little Mac for me on the 19th. In fact, when I went to pick up Little Mac today, they had another Zelda with my name on it even though I had already picked it up earlier in the week; I didn't buy. I'm holding out for my other pre-orders of Wave 2 and Wave 3 from them.

But still hunting Target for new releases; found a display of about 6 Capt Falcons last night at a Target, which are all gone now according to the inventory tracker. Still looking out for Pit. Whenever we decide to make this the OT the tagline definitely needs to be "The Thirst is Real."
 
If you're looking for Pit, you guys might want to check Gamestop tomorrow. I know some received theirs on Friday, but we are likely getting ours on Monday. We're only getting three, but two are for preorders, so one will hit the floor. Dunno if all stores will get extras, but it's worth a shot.
 
There seem to be Pits out there somewhere. I've been searching "Pit Amiibo" on Twitter for a while and, every once in a while, there's evidence of them popping up.

Someone said they found one in San Antonio this morning. They didn't say where, but there's a picture. I don't recognize the price tag.

I also saw one yesterday that said there was a Gamestop within 40 miles of him that had one in stock. I can't find that tweet anymore, but I think they were from Ohio.
 
My Luigi just shipped from Toys R Us! Could have bought it at Target yesterday, but I had to order four from Toys to get free shipping so didn't want to cancel the order.

I also ordered Pit, Falcon and Lucario from Toys as well. Nothing back on them yet.

Thanks for this post! I sometimes forget that I still know people that manage Gamestops (worked there from 2000 - 2008). Hopefully they'll have an extra one that they can hold for me!
