That was funny.
 
What's up with no pits in the north eastern us? Target just told me none until at least tuesday and gamestop and TRU were just as clueless.

I was able to get a second falcon. whats his trade value? WFT definitely. What about trainer or marth?

If you could trade him for any of the rare wave ones I would be surprised. Falcon is still being released by stores that haven't got theirs. Best Buy release date is 12/30. Wave 1 seems to be done unless you import from Europe. So I couldn't see anyone giving up a MTV for a wave 2 that is still releasing.

Edit: I think Diddy or Mac would be the trade value IMO
 
preordered sheik, toon link, ike and mega man off walmart.com last night. since best buy closed preorders, i didn't want to take the chance of them doing too.

also, with all this talk of toys r us canceling preorders, has anyone heard anything about them doing the same for in store pre orders? toys r us by my work had a bunch of pre order card for lucario and wave 3 so i bought a few lucarios
 
My Gamestop Little Mac (shipped) was 40 miles away on 12/16, transferring from UPS to USPS, and since then no updates. It was supposed to arrive last Friday...

Makes me worried for my Shulk preorder

Yup, I got him on friday night around 7pm. My friend went on saturday morning and he told me they had like 15 at that time but sold out throughout the day.

I knew I should have called them. But there was no way I could have went. I was there Wednesday for Marth and Villager LOL.

Just gotta wait a bit longer for Pit I guess.
 
Just got an email myself from Toys R Us about the cancellation of Lucario, not a big deal since I was able to re-preorder it. But good news for those who weren't able to

Edit: I got the same email as M1nion, can't preorder now, but within a week

12/30 is 1 week after xmas eve. for the next 3 days....falcon is equal IMO.
 
I got the email saying that they can't reinstate the order.

However, when this happened, I preordered again at toys r us and GameStop just in case. So I don't think I need to do anything. :-)
 
Yup, got an email saying my Lucario order has been returned to proper order, so hooray! Back to just needing to secure a Rosalina preorder for Wave 3, barring cancellations. Still need to go hunting for the 4 not common ones from Wave 2, though at this point it may be smart to just wait till Christmas passes so I'm not hunting for these things in the middle of a mad frenzy...

Shit! You're not going back are you? Would be willing to have a Pit shipped to me.

Man, I almost bought one on the off chance somebody needed it. I have no idea which ones are rare at this point. Sorry I didn't do so when I could. :/

I won't be able to get there until maybe 8 or 9 tonight but I can certainly try. I'll send you a PM if I can get one.

Funny I just got the same email saying they can't reinstate my order but I can by it within a week.

I just got the same email. I was able to get another preorder in the day they cancelled them all, so maybe I'll leave that preorder in place and buy a second/spare one.

Wow a Pit at Target?

And I also got the TrU email reinstating 2 of my orders.

Everything looked to be messed up. Nothing was in the right place aside from Mario and Kirby. Tags were incorrect.

If I had to guess based on when I worked at Target 10 years ago, someone probably found a bunch in the cage they keep video game merch in the electronics stock room.
 
So bizarre. I was not aware that I even had two separate pre-orders for Pit from TRU (it sent two emails a day apart, but I had only placed one order?), but I got emails today with one re-instated and the other not due to "legal reasons". It's Schrodinger's amiibo.

I don't see it showing up on their stock inventory...weird!
 
That Wont Fit In There said:
Ordered Diddy and Little Mac and both packages came with horrible dents in them that's very noticeable. Not bad for people who are opening but I'm keeping closed for collection. Luckily I got a good Diddy and Mac elsewhere and gave the two from GH to my brother.

I ordered a Diddy Kong from GoHastings and it came bent up in a bubble mailer. They actually folded down the top part of the packaging to fit it in.

I like them for stuff I dont care so much about but do not order amiibos from them unless you're just tossing the packaging.
 
Yeah, I got the emails from Toys R Us stating that my orders have been reinstated as well. But if I actually check the orders on TRU's website, I still see them as "Cancelled". Maybe it'll take some time to change. Anyway, I'm going to trust them for now and try to cancel my order of Captain Falcon from Amazon.fr before it's too late.

EDIT: Well, Amazon.fr said they can't cancel my order. Oh well, looks like I'm getting an expensive duplicate.

Sell it to a gaffer in need when it gets there :)
 
Any Canadian sightings yet? There's only one Pit on Ebay from a Canadian seller, so I'm wondering if it's been stealthily released ahead of the 12/30 date.
