Oh, I also managed to get Bowser and Toon Link. I had to wait until everyone had gotten their Rosalina's though.

 

[Christopher]

Got one and I have an extra one too for someone here

 

[Boogiepop]

Got 2, now someone please agree to trade me a Little Mac for this Rosalina!

 

[Chuck]

Last Rosie and last shiek!!!

 

[ahdurian]

don't know if i should just call my Target...I have a feeling since the tracker and mobile app shows nothing in my store, that they still might get some =/

 

[Game Rogue]

I believe that's the only on Rainbow. I think I'll head to a different one then. Wouldn't be that great to compete against each other.

Cool. We're you at TRU on Meadows Ln for the Lucario get? I was second in line for that one.

 

[Zombine]

Lucario Shipped and I just got Roselina! My Shulk is safe and sound for the 13th, now all I need is Meta Knight who is the truly sketchy one for me.

 

[D-Stubbs]

Can't quite park in the Target lot because they're plowing snow out of it lol.

 

[Adam Prime]

I'd best buy getting amiibos today too?

 

[Hero Prinny]

Got 3, my Target was limiting to 2 per
Person but my Dad was with me.

Ran into a close high school friend, he was #1 in line, caught up while we waited for the store to open .

Dad is shopping in Wegman's then we are going to get Breakfast, good day.

... gonna sell any to fello gaffers...?

 

[BumblebeeCody]

everyone is an amiibo Hunter.

Especially on pay day.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

So the mobile website says unavailable, but the mobile app pinpoints an aisle location for them; is it safe to say mine is getting some?

 

[mantis23]

My target had 56. Roughly 25 people in line at 8. They walked everyone back together and said 1 per person but you could get back in line if you wanted. Most folks bought 1 and left, some people got back in line. I hung around a bit and when the line was gone there were still a good 15 left. If you are in metro Detroit, lakeside will have some for a little while at least.

 

[Blue Namagem]

Mega Man isn't out today. Either the 13th or 20th.

I know, but 2 reasons I bring it up:

1. To remind/inform anyone who doesn't already know what I'm looking for
2. Going on the extreme off chance he's out somewhere today

That's all. Thanks for the reminder, though. Would be amazing if he was out, aw man.

 

[Nocturn]

My target had rosalina and bowser only out. Luckily me and another customer asked about the others. Sure enough they had it in the back. By then it was only me and one person so we lucked out.

 

[Horohoro]

I'd best buy getting amiibos today too?

Idk there are strangly alot of ppl in line over there... It opens at 10 ill wlak over after leaving Target.

 

[Futurevoid]

Only one Shiek at my Target so I missed out on that. The rest of the haul:

The guy was kind enough to allow me to buy a second Rosie for my daughter. It was limit of 1 per customer. As mentioned, my Target had 40 Rosalinas in boxes behind the register in electronics. There was a line of about 10 people so they'll likely have more in the High Pointe Commons Target in Harrisburg, PA.

 

[TheBanditKing]

my Target got 16 and there were already more then that in line, needless to say I came up empty handed . I was just waiting for something like this to happen http://youtu.be/EAqNdMMSAbE?t=2s

 

[Neo Dark]

Cool. We're you at TRU on Meadows Ln for the Lucario get? I was second in line for that one.

No I wasn't. The amiibos I want are either now releasing or aren't out yet so Rosalina will be my second. It's usually earlier Piscus mentioned he ran into one of you at toys r us last week or something and I was curious which one it was.

 

[gbrewski]

The Target I ended up going to was a clusterfuck, but I got Rosalina!

Along with Toon Link, Sheik, and Bowser.

And my Lucario shipped.

Today was a good day.

 

[Geedorah]

Got two Rosalinas at Target this morning, Brier Creek NC. And if Amazon.fr comes through with my Euro Rosalina I will be selling both for cost+shipping.

From the looks of it, everyone that can't find one will be taken care of my some kind GAFer - love how everyone is looking out for everyone else!

 

[theechrisfox]

My girl just texted me saying she picked up the second to last Rosalina amiibo at Target Oxford Valley without being injured. Good luck to everyone else.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

keikaku kaijin!!!

Scored Sheiik and 2 Rosas. Already had ordered TL and gotten Bowser so I was good there

So, anybody got an extra Little Mac?

 

[Persona7]

I might have to leave earlier than planned...

 

[That Wont Fit In There]

Lucario Shipped and I just got Roselina! My Shulk is safe and sound for the 13th, now all I need is Meta Knight who is the truly sketchy one for me.

Any confirmations on shulk being available for pick up on the 13th at GameStops?

 

[Hubbl3]

There were about 15 people lined up outside of my local Target. When the doors opened, some people took off running to get to the electronics. I casually strolled back there, haha. The Target employees had one box of about 25 Rosalinas behind the counter and they had everyone line up to purchase them. The first guy in line tried to buy the box, but thankfully they told him it was 1 per customer.

Long story short: success!

Same

I got my homies covered here

 

[fredrancour]

Fuck you target

Lol my luck , they said they didn't get any shipments due to the snow storm that was on Monday / Tuesday so I'm taking the L

:/

And people were stocking every other aisle

All 10 of us were mad , smh , at least post a sign on the damn door

I wonder if we were at the same target.... Boston area?
None for me. Time to see when best buy opens. Sheik seems rare, might as well...

 

[Fourth Storm]

Was 6th in line, but a little kid cut me so I was 7th (I turned a blind eye to it). Had some controversy at mine as the first guy wanted multiple. The electronics guy said no so this guy goes off and calls corporate, brings in customer service and all that jazz. He was trying to pass his credit card to his 2 buddies. Considering he was saying how he planned to buy 10 of some figures on line, it's a good guess that he's scalping. Sad thing is just as I left an employee was saying they had to sell it to him because there was no sign saying "1 per customer."

Whatever. Got Rosalina, Sheik, and Toon Link.

Well if your order comes through can I buy one of the Rosalina?

 

[Chucker]

Made a deal with my wife so I could go earlier she gets breakfast and I get to go check.
I feel like she might be getting the better end of this deal.

 

[RobFox64tm]

My targer opens in 45 looks like 2 ppl here...

I think you're probably good man. It's 5:20 am here in Napa and I'm pretty lonely out here.

 

[Game Rogue]

Are the Rosies and other wave 3 stocked on shelves or handed out at the electronics register?

 

[Living Proof]

Got 2, now someone please agree to trade me a Little Mac for this Rosalina!

I could do that.

 

[superNESjoe]

Got one and I have an extra one too for someone here

Yo. PM I'll buy it?

How fucking sad. I'm on overtime now and took my lunch break now and can't imagine how much my time and effort would be wasted to do this for profit.

One per customer and that's it...

 

[Hero Prinny]

I think you're probably good man. It's 5:20 am here in Napa and I'm pretty lonely out here.

Grab another if you can to help out your amiibros

 

[Somnid]

Well 2 Lucario's shipped. I guess if nothing else that's today's win.

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

Buncha cars here, no one on them though so it mist be the overnight crew. PUMPED

 

[D-Stubbs]

I'd best buy getting amiibos today too?

You know when I was waiting for Lucario on Friday some guy in line was talking about Best Buy getting Meta Knight on Sunday. Didn't say anything because I knew that was bs.

 

[FaintDeftone]

My Target experience was extremely pleasant. I got to the store at 7:45 and there was 4 people in line, so I was the fifth. By the time the doors opened, there were about 15 of us. They had about 25 Rosalinas, 5 Toon Links and Sheiks, and about 10 Bowsers. I grabbed one Rosalina and left (since I had the others already).

Luckily our Target limited one per person, so everybody currently in line while I was there got one. All the folks in line were really cool and we were all talking about our hardships trying to collect Amiibos. It was a good time and everything went super smooth.

Hope everyone else has the same experience!

 

[Futurevoid]

Are the Rosies and other wave 3 stocked on shelves or handed out at the electronics register?

Both. If they don't have stock in boxes, they put them on the shelves. At my Target, Rosie was in boxes behind the counter and they put 2-3 on the shelves.

 

[Neo Dark]

Are the Rosies and other wave 3 stocked on shelves or handed out at the electronics register?

Seems like from these last posts that they know they're going to be sold fast so they just brought them to the front desk or sold them at the electronics desk. I mean why bother putting them on shelves when they'll be gone in minutes.

 

[Christopher]

Yo. PM I'll buy it?

I got three PMs already but I don't know the other people say something nice about me and uou got a deal

 

[Horohoro]

My Targwt has a sign outside 1 per customer.

 

[Futurevoid]

By the way, I also have a third Rosie coming from Amazon.fr and if I don't get any bites from some friends who might be interested, I'll throw it up here for trade or sell at cost.

 

[Nocturn]

Score! The employees let the scalpers buy more than one though. Which sucks for the other ppl coming in.

Glad you were successful and they stopped the scalper.

 

[PAULINK]

Damn it, got 3 hours of sleep last night, thought to myself"no one will be there" and I am 7th in line. A dude in line told me there will be 50 though, according to what a rep told him yesterday, so I hope I can get at least two. This is so crazy.

 

[Jailer of Hope]

So I checked the iOS app and the mobile target site for stock info but it's showing 0 availability everywhere. If a kind soul can check area code 84321 I'd much appreciate it.
