Hmm, not sure. I just don't want the bottom shelves to be non lit. What do you guys think?
 
My Ike and Dedede are processing from Walmart. Says to be shipped by the 13th. I'm not entirely sure this is a new status because I haven't checked in a long time, but I think so.

It shipped the other day but my tracking number doesn't register on UPS yet.

My order has a working tracking number with a delivery date of the 12th. My cousin's order has a tracking number that has nothing in it. Ordered at the same time. So expect around the 12th? I dunno lol
 
I seriously just got a 3rd extra Lucario delivered. I think Toys R Us reinstated all my orders or doubled them. Anyways 2 are spoken for I think but if you need one I am sending them USPS tomortow inside the US for 25 bucks. That covers most my costs. Probably will eat some cuz I didn't get free shipping but it's fine. I just want to help some GAFFERS out. I am out running errands but if u message me I will hit you back soon.

Edit: Ok I think all 3 are claimed again. I have a backup or 2 as well in case people don't come though. I hope everyone gets the Amiibos they need. We are all in this together so I hope everyone is sharing! Happy Sunday Amiibros and Amiigals

Does smash Bros on the 3DS have amiibo support yet at all? Also will they work between the Wii u and 3DS without a wipe?

You mean a memory wipe? If so, I was wondering the same thing. I'm hoping that since the amiibo become linked to your NNID when scanned on the Wii U, they will pick up no problem on a New 3DS that has the same NNID aatached to it...

Yes they work between both games (no wipe required), and the most recent Direct explained of the impending patch to bring Amiibo to the 3ds version.

Coming Soon was all we were told. Probably shortly after new 3DS comes out.

There shouldn't be any need for a wipe either because its the same game data. Skylanders is able to do this with the console and 3DS versions.

Tomorrow or Tuesday for Sheik and TL, hopefully Wednesday to Friday for Shulk/IKEA and DDD
Click to expand...
Cool, I'll start checking on Tuesday to be safe. Hoping for Thursday (can check at Noon) or Friday (can possibly check around opening) since that'll work the best for me.

I don't have class until 4 on Wed, but I guess I could call around Noon to see if they could possibly place a hold.

Think I'll pick up the 3DS version tomorrow then just so I haven't when it launches
 
My Shiek from GoHastings is in the phantom zone or some shit. Got charged 2 days ago but no order invoice or shipping email. Whenever I go to check the order status it tells me my zip code is wrong. Ugh.

You have to pay extra for them to deliver on Saturday but no they don't process anything on Saturdays unless it's at the delivery hub
Click to expand...

Darn, I was hoping they would at least be in transit on Saturdays. Well, as long and it's here Monday... That was the scheduled date after all. I just hate how many cities they need to stop and scan it at! People say bad things about USPS, but at least they ship things to more direct locations.
 
So here's an updated United States list of when each Wave 3 figure is released at each retailer (bold = first available date for figure). If I've missed something or I have something wrong, let me know.

Am I correct in assuming TRU is getting all the rare wave 3s on the 13th?
Except the exclusives
Click to expand...

The 13th is their release date for Sonic, Mega Man, Ike, and Dedede. When I checked with my store I found that since a good chunk of their shipment is going towards in-store pre-orders, they will only have 5 extra for both Sonic and Mega Man, 2 extra of Dedede, and no extra Ikes. It's likely that Sonic and Mega Man will be hard to find at first, until stores receive extra shipments, kind of like Sheik, Diddy Kong, etc.

Thanks for keeping this updated. It is clutch for those of us who cannot check the thread very frequently.

I saw somewhere that Wal-Mart got a restock of Ocarina of Time 3D, so I went there to check. They did not.. at least not the one near me. While there, I checked their amiibo section and it was the most pathetic display I've ever seen (though I've seen even worse ones via photos from these threads).

Couple Marios, about five Peaches, two Donkey Kongs, and a few Pikachus. I did leave with a cool pink silicone sleeve for the Wii U Gamepad, so it wasn't a TOTAL waste of time.

Just went to mine as well. About the same plus a Samus and Yoshi. Someone said their walmart had pegs for new figures. Mine definitely does not and still had a WFT one. (Summerville, SC)
 
Man, this is such a nightmare.

Three Targets, two Gamestops, and a Best Buy today... the only Wave 3 I could find is a Bowser. This is in Overland Park, KS.

Snagged the Bowser, but I don't think I'm gonna have any luck at all with the others, unless the stores are just late getting them out. I guess I could try Walmart, but everyone seems to think they have the worst selections.

So far, my haul looks like this:

WAVE 1:
Donkey Kong (own)
Fox (own)
Kirby (own)
Link (own)
Mario (own)
Marth (own)
Peach (own)
Pikachu (own)
Seamus (own)
Villager (own)
Wii Fit Trainer (own)
Yoshi (own)

WAVE 2
Captain Falcon (own, 1 extra)
Diddy Kong (own)
Little Mac (own)
Luigi (own)
Pit (own)
Zelda (own)

WAVE 3
Bowser (own)
Ike
King Dedede
Lucario (own, 1 extra)
Mega Man
Meta Knight (preorder)
Rosalina (trading Lucario for 1)
Sheik
Shulk (on its way)
Sonic
Toon Link

WAVE 4
Chrizard
Lucina
Ness
Pac-Man
Robin
Wario

I haven't missed Wave 4 preorders in the last couple days, have I?

I'll vouch for this too, Walmart is only good for online orders.



Nope, still waiting for US pre-orders to open myself.

Thanks for the quick reply. Guess I'll stay in the rest of the day and maybe go for a run in this beautiful weather.
 
just hoping i can track a shipment of dedede and sonic to one of my stores... so far no luck, but i have had others in the group tell me some stores will get small amounts.

if not, i will be in a line somewhere.
 
Got my Charizard amiibo on lock down. Kind of silly, it's still 2,5 months away. But yeah, you have to with the Amiibo craze.
