It will be interesting to see if Disney Infinity 1.0 figures will get a discount by the time 3.0 comes out. I think 2.0 was overall more successful since Marvel.

hmmm i'm surprised nintendo world new york didn't announce on twitter they're releasing wii fit trainer. I had to find out through reddit, and a friend. Guess they don't wanna cause a scene for this.

sorry! I didn't mean today! It happened yesterday. They low key released it to the public yesterday. I followed their twitter and usually they post about the holy trinity restock when the store receive shipment. They posted it twice previously.

I did not. I ordered him a long while ago and the order was cancelled. Then, to make up for it, I got the "code" to get the $10.99 price with free shipping. That is the order that has been delayed.

Day 6 of being unable to cancel my Best Buy order yet they refuse to ship it. I have a bad feeling this ends up with a cancellation on their part with zero communication. I have pretty much no faith this is going to ship before I have to go back to work next week.
Woohoo..So I'm looking at my collection and just realized I must really hate Mario & company! I don't have Mario or Peach, I only have Yoshi because my wife likes him, and Luigi is still boxed up to return because I only got him to hit free shipping lol.
Strangely I would love a Rosalina or Toad amiibo though 0.o

It's been insanely crowded this week due to tourists. I could barely walk around the store when it's usually empty.

I would love an toad amiibo with a radish over his head and the motion he is about to fling the radish. That's just me though.
Oh yeah for sure! The fact it's near rockefeller center as well and it's the holiday you can expect it to be busy, and the summer draws in the crowd. The best time is probably during spring time and Fall time to visit i would say.

That's odd. The one I ordered with my code ship today. I thought since yours got delayed that you went through eBay. My Cpt. Falcon got delay all the way to 2/1/2015. I just canceled it since I imported him any way. Got that to give to a fellow gaffer.

I really hope Boo and Dry Bones are in Mario Party 10 because I really want figurines of them.
Oh, and here is a good article about Amiibo display tips:
http://www.thetanooki.com/2014/12/2...to-proudly-displaying-your-amiibo-collection/
Bigbadtoystore.com is selling Japanese versions of all the wave 3 pre-orders for US $16.99 plus shipping (fedex, 6 bucks). I've ordered a number of figures from them over the past few years and have never had a problem, as far as I know they are a reputable US-based company.
I just ordered Rosalina and Shulk, for someone like me who is going to open them anyway I don't care about the packaging and I'm willing to pay a small price premium to not drive all over Northern Virginia checking stores, etc when these things come out.
Just a heads up in case anyone is interested.

Holy crap Rosalina is sold out already.
I was JUST going to say that...
I saw this on reddit on my phone when out at lunch about an hour ago, at that time Rosalina was sold out too, however when i was browsing the site randomly 10 mins ago I saw she was no longer listed as sold out so I threw in an order...maybe it is going up and down? I don't know...

Our boy John the scalper got there first I guess . It goes Gaf > scalper > sold out > Gaf
I posted my display two weeks ago but the lighting/quality was terrible, here's something decent with daylight. Only difference is that Kirby has even more alcohol.
I never used more than half of them in Smash so far, they just look great as decorations.
Can't wait to get more.

BestBuy's B2G1 deal worked out for all of wave 2. I was so sure they they were either going to cancel them or just fall through on supply but they actually shipped.
Which case is that and where can I get it?
I finally unboxed most of my collection:
Which case is that and where can I get it?
i think them calling me to tell me I can pick it up is a pretty good sign.
It's actually a Baseball Bat display case you can purchase from Michael's! I use them for my amiibo and Disney infinity and they look great mounted on the wall. Here's the link:

And look at that, they're BOGO free right now! You'll need it for wave 3 ;P

They'll be gone by the days end.
I just was able to get through checkout when you posted this... still says available when I refresh also?
The entirety of Wave 3 is preordered and paid for on Amazon, preordered Meta Knight from Best Buy, Shulk from GameStop, Lucario from Amazon.co.uk, and 2 Rosalinas, one from Play Asia and another from Amazon.de
Come at me, January and February.
As of this very second Pit is back again. Just checked.

Nah, even though it says add to cart, as soon as you sign in it just removes him.
I'm an idiot and was ready to click the finalize order button and realized if I went back and added another Amiibo, I could get free shipping. Went back, did that, went to re-checkout and Pit disappeared
Oh well, I have a very friendly Gaffer who offered me a hopeful second Pit that he should get in a couple weeks. Shout out to you, friendly Gaffer.

Received my Cap Falcon and Pit today. Super glad they arrived and like all (minus 1) I've received from Best Buy they were well packed in a box and in great condition.
Only waiting on Luigi to complete Wave 2. I ordered him recently and with the holidays I'm sure it will be a little bit before he arrives.

Have them all as long as my stuff comes through
Marth and Villager have already shipped from Amazon.de and should be here next week
Luigi, Pit, and Falcon I have coming (hopefully) from Best Buy.
