Do it.

They're a lot easier to display together without the boxes.

If you think you might sell later though, not opening would probably add decent value.


Might as well. I opened both my club Nintendo mario
And gang and luigi's mansion statues
 
How are you planning on reselling high when Nintendo will just make more for everyone to buy!

:troll:

Mine has not either, and I was in almost right when it opened.

I was charged for it though.

I just received a shipping confirmation 10 minutes ago or so

Ordered Pit yesterday from GS just got shipping confirmation. That Gamers Club got me to preorder all through BB but I am kind of wishing I would have went GS for them. They seem to be on top of their shipments.

Now my Amazon.de is a little more complicated. Due here on the 30th but

Could you imagine? Geeze in retrospect, it seems obvious with the low counts that these guys would be hard to come by.

Although necessarily the opposite can be true. I might have mentioned before that Skylanders had a problem with a character named Boomer who was kind of an ugly character and no one wanted him. Now he's super hard to find.

Which is ironic because he used to be shelfwarming and basically all that was on the shelves. In fact, there was a promotion for a free random Skylander and that's all people got. "Oh great, another Boomer" they said sarcastically. I took mine and customized it for fun. Now Boomer sells for triple or quadruple what he went for originally.

Pit and Little Mac just shipped out from Gamestop, looks to be here by next Friday in the new year. Here's to hoping I can find Cap somewhere!
 
Cool gamestop.com shipped my pit about an hour ago.

Guess the "ships in 24 hours" wording was pretty accurate. :) I'm happy!

now if only TRU and target would get off their asses and ship the stuff I ordered WAY earlier than Pit @ gamestop.
 
I traveled far and wide for a Captain Falcon amiibo today and still no luck. It seems the rumors are true, you don't find Captain Falcon, Captain Falcon finds you if you believe hard enough lol.

Also is it bad that I don't really want Diddy despite hearing that he may be rare? Found several stores with Diddy well stock. I feel he going to be just about as stocked as Luigi so I'm not really worried about him at all. Now Fox is actually becoming rare in my area though, basically gone on all the Target, Toy r us, best buy, and gamestop that I been to.
 
I was refreshing this page for hours before hand and still managed to miss rosalina again for the 5th I'm tired of staying up all night to get her...
 
My little brother got 3 Amiibos for Christmas, from people who knew he had Smash Bros. (the boxes clearly just say Smash Bros.). He doesn't own a Wii U, only a 2DS (with the game obviously).

Like... where the hell is the NFC "portal" or whatever they call it? Unannounced 2015 release date? I believe at this point they will hold it back and just tell people to buy the new 3DS.

In any case... it is frankly disgusting. The poor kid is sad, I wonder how many kids got in the same situation, since there are so much more 3DS/2DS than Wii U.
 
does it usually open at this time? Though it was always later

No its usually between 3:30am - 4:30am CST but I keep it open and refreshing all day have for weeks with no luck... and I have an alarm set for 3:30am to check every night and I keep getting as far as the submit order page then twice now I got a recipt with nothing on it for 0.00$ AND 2 bank charges for 0.00$ its REALLY pissing me off.

That is really disappointing, I've been wondering where the 3ds adapter is myself.
 
Same here. Damn.

My typo comma immortalized. Anyways, it feels worse than just seeing it greyed out since I know I was close

Same here I keep getting up every night mid sleep cycle to check lol and I keep missing her its REALLY annoying they need to just open the preorders and stop hoarding stock and cancel the preorders in excess of 3... I only want 1 for myself :(

PREORDER button now greyed out...

I didn't even notice your typo when I quoted. And it's still orange for me and that's just mean because it makes me think I have a chance but too late. Are people just hounding the page and ordering a bunch at once?

I'm almost feeling desperate enough to camp out in front of a target(with their ICEE), if I knew there was going to be in-store stock for her.

I'd assume so. I refreshed that page several times thinking it was on my end since that button was still there :/

I already planned for it just need to know a set date and I'll be off work... worst part is these seem to have no release date just come out when stores get stock and thats probably the worst part...

Did they already confirm that there will be stock at every store of her? Might have to do just that...I'll probably call to make sure.
