That's why I love the Disney figures! Seriously go hold a Hulk, Venom, or Baymax figure in your hand if you want to feel some WEIGHT.
For now.

I suggest anyone who wants fox buys him immediately, when the second part of wave 2 hits he will be for sure discontinued, you can see the signs already
Yeah, but Marth and Villager preorders were sold out like a month or two ahead of wave 1's release so it was kind of obvious they were in short supply. From what I remember, there were no preorder issues with Zelda and looking at some of the stock numbers people have posted in this thread that store employees were saying they received, there's been faaaaaaar more Zeldas per store shipment than Diddy and Little Macs combined.
I'll probably get one in a day or two, but I'm not stressing about her like I was the other two, haha.

They should treat it as. Ship to store i believe.

Just realized I have no clue how I'm going to get all my amiibos to lvl 50. Night say screw it.
I feel the same way, but with all the errors everyone has been having pretty much everywhere, I went ahead and ordered one for in store pick up and one to be shipped. I figure at least one has to go through. If I do end up getting both, I can either return one or I'm sure there will be someone who missed it who would be happy to get one here or something.
8 player free-for-all for max time limit (not unlimited), no stock limit, with 8 amiibos. Rinse and repeat. Donezo.
I'm super jealous of you UK folk getting hold of wave 2 figures already,especially because you now get to use the Falcon costume on MK8.
I've got mine pre-ordered with Shopto so I should hopefully get them on Saturday or Sunday.
I can't quite believe how much money I'm spending on all of this, especially so close to Christmas, but they all look SO NICE grouped together on my bedside table.
How old are you all by the way? It will be nice to know I'm not the only 30 year old buying these things :/

If we can't post these, any mod can feel free to edit this out.
TBH the only thing we know for certain is Marth, Villager, and Wii Fit Trainer were discontinued. I feel like Fox will stick around till at least the 2015 game comes out. (Unless they make a different one?) Also we are pretty sure Little Mac will be cancelled. We don't know about any of the rest right? It's just speculation.

Does that affect the "they learn from how you play" or was that just some bs marketing.
If that was me I´ll put it up on ebay: "Defective Fox, Twisted arm of dumb, UNIQUE."
I'm almost 33. so you aren't alone.

Yo gaf I got so lucky I decided to return to best buy on a whim (even though the guy told me to check two days from now) and I just saw one diddy and one Mac just sitting there not even on the rack. They were the only two left. Looks like the Zelda rack wasn't even touched.
Actually... yeah, yeah it could. If you level them up without items, they won't ever use items once items are turned back on. If you taunt after each KO, they will taunt after each KO. They kind of mimic stuff way more than I would have imagined. There are some interesting recounts floating around there, like this one, for example.
Damn, you went too high for the starting bid, I was expecting double S.R.P and rising from there, but if its put for giggles then I can´t blame ya.
Starting the bid so high probably wasn't the smartest thing to do. Should have started much lower and let interest grow.
Self control: don't buy TWO of each figure.
Fiancée: if she
he?
he'll?
...not really. Fiancée will always be more important. PLEASE don't put amiibo in front of your loved ones.

Fuck. The register said not available for purchase fuck that. They were in my hand gaf.
I went and bought Donkey Kong since I wanted him eventually and didn't want to end up not being able to get him later.
I went to the GameStop next to the target to pre-order Shulk and noticed they had both Diddy Kong and Little Mac behind the register. I asked if they were available and he said they were pre-order items that will be available to buy after five if no one picks them up. I'm on my way there now to see if I can hopefully snag both.

wut? they don't let you buy it?
I was thinking about that as I was trying to return it, haha.
Called it, sad about it, ask them to put them on hold for you or talk to their manager.

Nope! The guy shook my hand and said sorry bro
Then he asked them what they are and he became interested and said "man I remember him from punch out" other I led better not swipe Em
Since they wave 2 aren't abailable for purchase it seems that means that best buy got 10 Zeldas, 1 Mac and 1 Diddy
WHat the fuuuuck

They actually do learn from you, and then develop their own play style based off of what you taught them. For instance, my Zelda uses my Farore's Wind techniques just like I do. She even uses my down throw to neutral air set-up. She won't, however, go deep off the ledge to get a kill, she opts for using Din's Fire or Phantom Slash instead.
My Zelda is a level 50 now. She 2 stocked me the other night.

Stopping in at various stores today, I discovered that all the Little Macs I'd seen last week are gone, still no Diddys (except for the one I bought). Zelda is still highly available. I think that does it for my area until Best Buy supposedly starts selling Diddy on Wednesday and Mac on Friday.

It's a female because he spelled it "fiancée." "Fiancé is used for a man who is engaged and "fiancée" is used for females.

37 here.
Decided to cut it in half. If it sells, it sells... if it doesn't oh well, I don't mind having this figure.

I think that's all the proof we needed to know that you're a real doctor.
Good on you.
We're going through a progressive renaissance right now. I don't know all of the rules yet. Just playing it safe!

At least you can talk. Who are you?
Got my first this morning, Luigi. Didn't know he came with Mario's shadow to live under.
Already kicking my ass in Smash. Really tempted to get Cap. Falcon too now.

A manager from toysrus on reddit says check your stores on wednesday for captain falcon and others. He said Wednesday is always a big day because it is a week away from christmas
