We had a calm and civil line too at my target. They only had 11 Rosalinas, 6 boosters 4 toon links, and ONE sheik lol

I almost didn't get mine cause they split the line into two registers (Which is stupid) and one guy (who I happened to be in his line) was super slow and luckily I got the last Rosalina there....Jeez that was so close.

But happy to see it online. I might have to check every store for Sheik..

Couldn't find a second one for my child :(
 
So I haven't opened Toon Link, Bowser or Sheik (Rosalina was a gift for the GF).

I'm thinking of opening up Bowser and leaving the others in their boxes.
 
Not amiibo related but there is nothing more odd than randomly streetpassing someone you've met before. Like completely outside of school or work stuff just randomly run into the same person again but not knowing who they are.
 
With how long Rosalina has stayed available on Targets site and hearing news of how well stocked the stores were this morning I am starting to think she is the common out of wave 3 just like Zelda and Diddy Kong were for wave 2.
 
And they are also available online now as well, I suspect another shipment of her may be hitting Target this week sometime. It would be funny if there were mass returns of her this afternoon, lol.

My cousins store said they would receive a second shipment by the 8th from the distribution center. I posted a pic of it in the last thread.
 
It's probably too late to post this, but don't be discouraged if Target.com says that a store doesn't have any in stock. I checked at 7:40 this morning and there was nothing in stock anywhere around me. I though maybe it didn't update until 8:00. I dug my car out of the snow and was done at about 8:10. I checked again, and still nothing. I decided to call the store and they did have some... so the online tracker is not always accurate. It's always best just to call.

I know that feeling...I got 7 streetpasses all by people I've passed before and I still don't know who they are.
 
My little group was civil and there was plenty to go around, however, I swear that if I were in line and recognized a known scalper behind me,I'd buy the whole lot then sell them to the other people in line, minus the scalper.
 
Dang this thread is moving quick...

Updated!!!

Got one off Amazon, hopefully it actually ships.

Plot twist: What if it's all thanks to that one guy who pre-ordered 100 of 'em?

I once streetpassed the same person again while I was on vacation in another state!
 
Glad to see some successes here with Rosalina.

US Gaffers may envy higher german stocks, but I sure envy a clear launch date like that... I wanted to visit a shop early on launch date for Rosalina, but they broke the release date everywhere. That's really inconvenient (at least, I managed to snatch one online just before it was sold out everywhere)

Rosalina wasn't available in my stores. I have to wonder if we really are getting anything shipped to Alaska...
Frozen Amiibo not available in Alaska? That's a shame...

I hope you'll find one soon....
 
For anyone in Orlando, the Target in Winter Garden still has 6 Rosalina in stock and a bunch of Bowser. The Best Buy next to it has Bowser.

I've run into the same person 4 times and have no idea who they are. It's gotta be an employee of a place I drive close enough to on the way home from work or something.

And you just reminded me that I forgot my 3DS at home this morning. Damn. Probably could have picked up a Streetpass or two.
 
is there any site in NA i can order toon link right now? only one I technically need for wave 3 (assuming all pre orders are filled)
 
I just want Little Mac and Toon Link, but I ended up getting Bowser and Rosalina (thanks to whoever posted the link).

I've given up on Little Mac, but none of the usual suspects had Toon Link in my town. Is Wal-Mart worth checking you think?
 
People keep mentioning Gamestop got this wave in today, but the one where I preordered all of wave 3 only got Bowser in and don't even have estimates for the others. Should I be worried? I thought they were pretty good about handling pre-orders.
 
Luckily I woke up right when Rosalina was being sold on Target.com 30 minutes ago. Hopefully it ships to my place without any damage.

Can't wait to get a figure of my favorite Princess!
 
My target (Hastings MN) said they were getting 12. 12 for that tiny town! I got Rosie elsewhere but I bet they still have some.

yeah I am in Minneapolis and my closest target is the one on 77 and 66th in Richfield and they currently (as of 30 minutes ago) have 15 rosalinas on display and another box behind the counter...

maybe minnesota stores got more shipments tho because of hometown bias since target is headquartered here..

lol
 
Ordered Rosalina from Target.com. Funny how easy it was after the whole preorder fiasco. I can still add her to cart too, surprised she has lasted this long.

None of the Wal Mart's in my area even got Wave 2.
 
Just returned from the Target at the Magnolia Mall in Florence SC. They had a total of 2 Toon Links (of which I purchased one) and no Sheiks or Rosalinas. Talked to the guy who works in electronics and he said the store received a total of 10 Rosalinas, 8 of which were purchased by one family who had been camping out all morning before the store opened. The Best Buy next door also had no Rosalinas or Sheiks, but they had like 10 each of Toon Links and Bowsers. So I got a Bowser. Now I'm waiting for the GameStop to open to check them out.

Best Buy didn't have Rosalina either?
