Anybody know when Rosalina will be up for preorder on Target? It's only one I'm need of all known available.

It's already been available IIRC my mistake, sorry! :)

Where did that Pit come from??

Please let us know where you are so we don't think they released early in NA or EU.

Not a single Ebay listing I see from a US seller yet. Crazy rare (late ship or sunday stores) or AU/Japan i'd bet.

Wow, lame. Yeah it said 7.99 shipping for any order under $45 or something. Hopefully it's still in stock when I get home, I'll just cancel and reorder.

Check your receipt. Mine said the same thing but the receipt said shipping was free for video game items, or some such.

Meanwhile, here's what my Toys R Us had this morning:

Damn, I hit up two EBgames (GameStop in Canada) and they're already sold out of Diddy and Mac :( plenty of Zelda to go around though.
 
I posted the Pit photos and I picked him up in Australia. I mentioned it a couple of posts up from when I posted the pictures but not in the post that got quoted. All of wave 2 came out (and sold out) in Australia today (yesterday, I need to sleep). Seems like I'll have to pre order wave 3 stuff already. This is just crazy....
 
I wasn't gonna buy any more until series 3. I had willpower.

... Bought Falcon. NO MORE. I can't carry on like this.

But Pit did look awfully nice...

Looks like I'm getting my Zelda amiibo today. UPS says it's out for delivery. I can't wait to see how it looks.

I think I'm gonna stop by TRU before work today because Amazon still doesn't know when they're even going to get it in to ship. I must have been 1 millionth in line even though I preordered over 2 months ago. TRU has store-pickup ordering for her right now tho.

Now.. at 40% off, should I get the TRU-exclusive Lucario?
...yeah, I went for Lucario. *hopes it is rare*
 
I got the last 2 Little Macs at my TRU, aka the only ones.

And guess what? Even with pre-orders, they still only had 2, so those people who pre-ordered at that store are screwed!

I only found out once I checked out.
 
Are my Best Buy pre-orders going to be reliable? I trust the Toys R Us one. Ok, time to make another run by a retail store.
 
I visited two separate Fred Meyer stores yesterday and today and this is what I found:

-1 store had 9 Zeldas this morning and then the common Wave 1's.

-1 store had 3 Zeldas, 1 Mac, and 2 Diddy. (I bought the Mac and a Zelda) Also a bunch of common Wave 1's.

The thing I noticed at both stores about Wave 1 is that Fox was getting low in quantity. Each place only had a couple left. I'm curious to see if Fox is indeed next on the chopping block to make room for more. I'm definitely NOT seeing any stores (Fred Meyer or otherwise) expand their Amiibo displays. Its all the same exact space they had allocated on day one. The rotating roster makes sense if you consider that they're simply not going to get more space for these things.

So there you go. That's my report.
 
Thanks for the heads up on the Lucraio pre-order! Got 2 for myself and my other addicted Amiibo friend. Now I have all of Wave 3 pre-ordered, including the retailer exclusives, except for Rosalina. Come on Target!!!

We've been buying each one since launch, got all 15 now. Picked up Zelda, Diddy and Little Mac on Wednesday.

I hope the rest of Wave 2 comes out soon, would like a break from this madness for a bit!!!
 
Tons of everything at TRU except Mac, only had 3. No rares anywhere.

Other stores had a handful of everything. Best buy and Walmart have nothing new though.
 
Nothing but Zelda in my TRU today...so no more looking for Little Mac for me. He wasn't on my "most wanted" list and I'm tired of driving around every day. Zelda and Luigi are on order from Amazon, and Pit is on pre-order from Best Buy. That'll do for me.
 
I'm stuck at work right now, but my wife just called me from Fred Meyer. She picked up the only Diddy Kong they had, along with a Zelda and a Little Mac.
 
All the TRU's I called lastnite said they were getting wave 2 next week. But when I called just now some either have just Zelda or all 3. Why do they lie?
 
Man, I really wanted to just be able to walk in and buy a Little Mac to put on my office desk. Ever since they've announced and shown these things. Should I run to the nearest Toys R' Us or Best Buy right now?

Go for it. They'll likely be gone by the end of the week.
 
Went to my local toy r us. There was a bunch of wave 1 figure(no rare three) and zelda. They even had labels but didn't see the labels for little mac or diddy. They probably sold out before they were even up.

Except these are shipped by box, and each box contains 4 of 1 character. Your Toys R Us got 4 Little Macs in total.
 
The paint doesn't hold up really well on some of these figures. Common sense, I guess, but I took out a little bit water-based cleaning solution, a microfiber cloth, and the paint on my Villager came right off.
