still looking for capt. falcon somewhere I was up till 4 am checking stocks last night managed to snag rosalina though!. But falcon still eludes me and now I see he was on ToysRus this morning well that's upsetting considering he was one of the ones they cancelled on me the other evening.... (still salty about that...)

Rosalina was up again in the middle of the night??

What the EFF!!!

 

[TheBaldEmperor]

Uh...so I tried to search Target.com for the Captain Falcon Amiibo and now he doesn't even show up! Last night I could search what stores had him but now he's completely off the site!

My shipment from Amazon.de has been delayed for the 4th time. The dumb part is that most of the delays occurred after it arrived in the US.

 

[O.v.e.rlord]

Pit, Falcon and Lucario all removed from ToysRUs.com

Removed?! Wtf?!

Can't trust zee Germans.

Ha I kid

 

[Piscus]

Anyone know the exact time when Rosalina was up? Between when and when? List the time zone too.

 

[Neo Dark]

So Little Mac was definitely send out, but I missed the package delivery! Dammit! Little Mac is now in delivery limbo. Instead of giving the package to neighbours they are going to come back monday between 14:00-18:00. Right, working hours. Fuck!

Can't you contact the delivery place and request special delivery instructions?

I obtained her at 3:34am CST

I got a Link Amiibo as a gift from a secret santa exchange.
It's super sweet- a lot cooler than I expected and I feel a little attached to my buddy. His name is Xanadu. I like to play Xanadu when he fights during the last matches of the day.

 

[MrT-Tar]

London gaf - GAME Edgware has a decent variety in stock, I bought both Pit and Captain Falcon.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Has anybody found wave 2B at Walmart yet?

Yeah it's weird that Walmart has been al but silent on the matter. Either they aren't getting more or they are putting it all at once because they're getting a delayed shipment or something.

 

[RobFox64tm]

Where is everyone finding Pit at? Online only, or in actual stores?

Edit: in the US I mean.

I went to my local Walmart yesterday. They had about a dozen amiibo all from 1st wave. No Luigi or Zelda let alone any other amiibos from the 2nd wave.

 

[Horohoro]

I've still got captain falcon refreshing on every site available I think lol.

Your post gave me a heart attack. After I saw it I had to make sure my Marth order was still on track for Jan 1st! And it still is woot!

 

[Horohoro]

deep discount still has Captain Falcon and Pit for preorder, little mac too.

I've used them pretty often in the past they're usually reliable just slow as hell shipping speeds.

I found Pit in stores at a Meijer in Michigan.

My Nintendo World Store confidence has been restored. Went there at open with my Lugi and Pit pre-order receipts and they had them set aside in the back. I asked about getting a call they said they only do that if you dont pick something up in a week. So I have to keep an eye on Twitter and now Instagram. No problem bro!

Oh crap, does the Nintendo World Store have Pit's available for purchase without a pre-order?

Edit: Although there is absolutely no way I can make it there before Tuesday. LOL

 

[Josh5890]

So I'm going to assume that if I haven't started collecting these by now I am sol for most of them. Money has been really tight so I haven't been able to start collecting them. I figured with some Christmas money I could start grabbing the less common ones but that looks to be close to impossible.

 

[Horohoro]

seriously guys why aren't amiibo available at store.nintendo.com.. that makes 0 sense to me...

 

[y2dvd]

I've been calling all Targets and no Captain Falcons. One of them got it but only like 4 copies and it instantly sold out.

 

[jetsetmario]

Sooo...is it safe to assume that the all of the canceled Toys R Us orders are going to remain canceled despite the Joystiq story reporting that they would be fulfilled. I still haven't received any communication from TRU and the refund has now been fully processed.

I don't see how they will re-instate the orders especailly if people already pre-ordered elsewhere.

I, however, re-pre-ordered from Toys R Us.com and I also did Gamestop in-store pickup.

I'm getting all of these figures somehow, LOL .

 

[Gaiaknight]

I found Pit in stores at a Meijer in Michigan.

which meijer mine had luigi, diddy kong, and zelda but only tags for the last 3

They're already having trouble keeping up with demand so they're going to need supply first.

 

[Ridley327]

The online store has never been used for standard retail items. They occasionally toss on a specialty item on there from time to time, like Electroplankton or the DS Phat-compatible web browser, but it's been a parts store for as long as I can remember.

 

[Tom Nook]

Went Amiibo hunting, got Fox and Zelda at Toys R Us (opens at 6am). Going to Target next hoping for Luigi.

 

[-Horizon-]

What level of despair is this thread in today?

 

[Horohoro]

I got a weird feeling there will be a good amount of capt. falcon and pit available on the 31st thats the date most retailers have it listed for sale and I'm half tempted to say the first batches were slight flukes that got sent or put out with the luigis... thats what I'm hoping anyway...

 

[Fourth Storm]

Whelp, about to drive 36 miles for a Wii Fit Trainer available at a Walmart that I ordered for in-store pickup about a week ago. Lets hope this is worth it. I already have one, but I may need it for trade purposes if this Rosalina shite keeps up...

 

[DeaviL]

[Sorceror12]

I'm starting to see more diddy kong stock in target too. Not a whole bunch but still a few as opposed to none several days ago. This is in york pennsylvania.

Well that ain't a good level to be at D:

Pretty dam high! Every one missed Rosalnia this morning.

Edit. Sorry missed it when I posted. Walking my dog and posting don't go well

 

[SalvaPot]

There is a target tracker up on the amiibo reddit and its AMAZING. Check it, cant copy link with this phone

 

[Gartooth]

which meijer mine had luigi, diddy kong, and zelda but only tags for the last 3

Sent you a PM, best of luck.

 

[Tendo]

With Pit not being off Target.com my only hope is to drive down once or twice a day. My only backup is my Best Buy Pre order in store and well, i dont trust that to work out well.

 

[melman101]

Has anyone seen a Pit inside a Toys R Us?

May stop by before the holiday party.

 

[SeanR1221]

Yeah I mentioned a few pages back that montgomerville, PA had 4 diddys

 

[Velcro Fly]

Going out to check my local Meijer (live in Indiana though!) and a Target that says they have Captain Falcon in. As always my extra will go to a Gaffer. My Diddy from Best Buy is supposed to arrive Christmas Eve.

I love the thrill of the hunt with these but I also love opening them and using them!

 

[-Horizon-]

Wondering if I should take the risk and cancel the german rosalina preorder and keep the france one since its like $10 cheaper for the same shipping time period.

Pretty dam high! Every missed Rosalnia this morning.

wait what

 

[RobFox64tm]

Just an FYI for those who managed to pre-order Lucario yesterday morning: when I try to track my order, it doesn't show up at all. Anyone else having this issue? I haven't received any notice of cancellation.

 

[Ludist210]

I saw four Diddys at TRU in Hoover, Alabama. A few Zeldas too.

Mine is fine. Just checked it.

 

[RobFox64tm]

Mine is fine. Just checked it.

I don't get it then... I have the e-mail confirming the order went through. Putting in my order# and zip code yields nothing however.

Edit: Okay that's weird; now it is showing up. Not sure what I could've been doing wrong before. Oh well. Didn't mean to scare anybody.

Yeah for me the pre orders went around 2 ish. A gafer was able to get in at 3:44 EST. He came back to tell us and by that time she was gone again.

 

[Cormano]

Shit, i didnt know that Fox was starting to get rare, any ideas on where i can get one?
