Amiibo Thread 3 | Where release dates are made up and preorders don't matter!

Rosalina is incredibly well stocked around the rest of the world, she's probably second most common to Bowser in wave three. I wouldn't worry too much people. I'm not sure why she was picked to be exclusive vs someone like Ike or Dedede.

Target probably just paid a shitton (relatively speaking) to lock-in a major character.
 
That's news to me. Maybe in Germany but not in the UK.

She only sold out in Australian online stores a few days ago and is still readily available in New Zealand. Only Bowser lasted longer.

Again if shipping wasn't so expensive I could get Rosalina for everyone, my local EB branch said they have no problem ordering as many as I ask for.
 
Yeah, I've decided to import Rosalina cause I didn't want to deal with the exclusive BS. It costed me $30 but it was worth it to me. Did the same for MetaKnight.
 
You need a Rosalina right? On my phone. But let me check. Sorry. I can def get you a Rosalina as you asked weeks ago. :)

In fact I'm guaranteeing you one. Pm me your shipping address.

Sent. Thank you so much! Now I'm kicking myself for canceling my extra Sonic and Mega Man or I would have given them to you.
 
So, how many of you are gonna keep collecting amiibos after the smash bros line up is out? Are these just amiibos just going to keep coming out forever?
 
I preordered one and paid it off, but don't really want it actually. I'd rather it go to someone here than a scalper. I'll offer it here when I get it.

That would be amazing, I'll keep an extra set of eyes on the thread in order to hopefully not miss it!

Also, to mention once again- if you don't think you can get a Rosalina amiibo tomorrow and live in Can/US shoot me a pm and I'll try to help you out. We are going quite early to Target tomorrow in a place with a relatively small population that is receiving 32. No promises, but I'd like to help some of you guys out, I understand that feel.

I'm done after the smash line is done. Unless they come out with more fire emblem and random characters that I like lol. So to be honest... Maybe never lol
 
A little over 11 hours to go. Glad I'll be lining up with some people I (sorta) know :) Should be fun maybe. I'll look out for hooded, big, old guys.

Kind of crazy. Wonder why TRU couldn't get more than 4 Lucario per store.

I think that information is misleading since most of stocks in stores were pre-ordered by many people so they would have less available lucario which made people assumed that they didn't have much.

Five TRU around here had like 20-28 each.

According to three TRU, all lucario were sold out because of preorders, so that's why I chose one of TRU that had few available.
 
I am fairly certain that at this point, my wife believes I am cheating on her with a new woman and this woman's name is.... Amiibo.

I mean all the signs are there, I'll be looking at my phone and suddenly have to rush into the other room to "use the computer to make a preorder". Sometimes I will get a text or tweet and suddenly have to "Run to Toys R Us". When I sleep sometimes I mumble the name Amiibo.

I tried to explain that these are just toys, but who would believe that a grown man would need to go stand in line in the snow just to get a common toy?

If/when an entire Zelda line comes out, I'd be very interested. Other than that...I'm getting out of this madness after Smash.

I'm completely uninterested in the Super Mario line so far with the exception of Toad, just because he's the most iconic Nintendo character who isn't already in Smash Bros.
 
Fuck it, im already too far gone/crazy/prudent. I'm driving to Target and sleeping in the Target parking lot and like a thousand other collectors on a thousand other toy runs, I wait for the dawn. Sleep well guys, I won't; I wish all of us the best, and a fruitful harvest.

I've bought Marth and have a pre-order for Shulk. Unless they do something actually interesting in-game with them, I'll stick to picking up Fire Emblem characters I like and ones from niche-games like Xenoblade that don't get other figure support.

If they do more Pokemon amiibos with game integration, though, it'll be hard for me to resist getting a few.
 
ain't nothing wrong with being a Browns fan... except being a Browns fan
I'm a Browns fan :/
 
Well, my plans are screwed. My city/state is in for a pretty big snow storm overnight. There's allegedly going to be a minimum of six inches on the ground, which isn't bad compared to the potential 12+, but shit... I was planning on going all over for wave 3 amiibo since Gamestop's still only got Bowser in out of my pre-orders, but it sounds like it won't be worth the trouble.

The only part that really bothers me is that I worked for 14 hours today so I wouldn't have to come in tomorrow. I guess I'll hit up the closest Target and TRU to me so it's not a complete waste.

I'm all in for the long haul. Full collection boxed and select extras to open and play with.

There is no hope for me. Save yourselves!

Best of luck to ya! Hope your parking lot sleeping pays off.

Someone has never seen the holiday classic Jingle All the Way!
 
Can someone get me caught up on what has happened in the last 48 hours? I've been enjoying the start of Mardi Gras in New Orleans and haven't had time to check GAF much.

My Toys R Us only got 2 lol.

Nothing at all, really, Lucario launched two days ago, Gamestop got Bowser, a single Little Mac was on Amazon and no one could buy it, and Target is blocking the brickseek so everyone is panicking about rosalina

Are you serious 12+ hours in advance? I'm going 2hrs before Target opens; told there are 40+ Rosalinas (at the store I am targeting) with a 2-per-person limit.
 
My girlfriend decided to have a craft night and now we are sitting down with crayons, a big blank piece of paper, and the list of all announced waves.
Marriage material right there

6 inches of snow is nothing for me and my state.
 
Found a scar on my Bowsers mouth. Is this normal?
