Friend of mine at TRU says sanic is coming in. Should be in store for 13th. No word on the other 3 coming in though...maybe delayed?
I'm not a sir.
I never made it to Target, but I think it was never in stock in the first place since I just checked again and it still says there are 15 available which is what it said this morning.I guess I'll just keep my Boobie Smudge Rosalina.
I would guess they are using the original package and then just altering them. You could print out your own design and then simply glue it over the actual design for example.

I'LL TAKE 10
Sanic? really? the "a" and "o" are so far apart, did you do that on purpose?

Mewtwo guy said he made a copy of the packaging and simply edited it and took it to his local fedex/kinkos store to print out on cardstock.
Of course I did lol.

Anyone order shulk from play asia? and have they shipped him yet? Still waiting for mine to ship. Its been a week since his release on the website.

someone in the amiibo factory got a little too touchy it seems
I pre-ordered a NA version from there, but my order status is still "preparing order".

Hmmm. I wonder what is holding it up?....
Well, that IS elaborate.

it was an absurd amount of In Store Pickups, pretty sure it was in the 90's yea. I just cleared em out as he was standing there cussing me out and was like "One Per Customer sir".

Wouldn't worry too much. At my TRU they said they've got their Sonics already but the other 3 will be there early in the week. I guess they were just shipped at different times.
No idea :/ trying to stay positive, but I still plan on heading out to GS this Friday just in case.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are restocks coming of Waves 1 and 2, so you might not have to pay more than retail price. (I have both Pit and Falcon ordered from Amazon.it, but it might be a while before they actually get more stock so I haven't been charged yet...I might end up cancelling that order.)
You are doing God's work.
So what's the limit? I got two of `em pre-ordered.
Also, Is it bad that I would have loved to see their faces as your friend dropped the bomb? 94 guy too.

Like I said I don't think it's a strict one per customer if you are a regular, just a lot of scalpers coming in so we got told to regulate it.
I really don't expect any restocks of the first couple of waves. It seems like so much hearsay and rumour with no concrete details and I don't trust Nintendo
Ok, cool. Sorry. I just get anxious about it sometimes.

Well Marth is getting restocked 100% that we know so anything is possible. If we get One Piece then WFT will be reprinted as well I'm sure.
Thanks for the heads up on this! I'll have to check since I have 2 fully paid off already and one is for a friend. Hopefully no issues.

Like the computer won't lock you out if you buy more than one or anything, if anything call your GS and see what they say.

From one GameStop schlub to another, I salute you.
I have two fully paid pre-orders for... Sonic, Megaman, King Dedede, Ike, Shulk, AND Sheik. If it's actually a one per person I pity the poor sales clerk who has to figure out the refunding lol.
Amazing haha, this put a huge smile on my face.
Nothing yet. Nooooooo-body knoooooows.
I keep thinking I sleep through the pre-orders of Wave 4 every morning.
Come on Nintendo, let me keep my sanity and get Robin/Lucina/Ness/Pac-Man.

While 94 preorders is ridiculous, allowing that many without money down is as well. Who is allowing that many preorders with no money down?
So Shulk is still planned to release on the 13th, right? How are the chances of me walking into a GS and being able to pick one up without a pre-order? High or low?
I just really want a Shulk for myself, man. I really like the character and don't plan on buying more than one of him.

I think noa knows how badly we consume ammibo so they are deliberately delaying preorders so the need and want will increase, thus making people scrambe when they go up and order ones they wouldnt want
Wow, you just made 93 people so happy. You win!
The store I'm hoping to get mine is now 1 per customer.
from this moment on, you are a Hero of the Amiibros

Gamestop.com, you can do a in store pick up on most items and it does not require the usual 5.00 so I assume this guy used some sort of bot or something...

seems stores may get a few for walk ins

I hope the employees at my GS, having known me as long as they have, will honor my 3 Shulk pre-order.
I even paid all three off :\

Probably good as long as they have the stock
Hnnnnnnnnnnghh Paper Mario art style is one of my favorites Mario styles. This looks so cool it truly looks like if it was official by Nintendo and stuff.
Yeah, I'm relying on walking in and picking one up as well. I don't feel lucky.
Though, I did get lucky and found a local game store selling a Sheik last night. That's something, I suppose.
Hoping this is gonna be a good week for me with amiibos. Got 4 of them imported from Japan, given it's been around 2 weeks they should hopefully arrive sometime this week, and I wanna believe Gamestop will at least have Toon Link, Shulk, Ike, and Dedede for me to pick up by Friday.
I need Wave 3 on my shelves already, can't take this anymore!

Will you sulk when you don't get a Shulk?
It will be whine time.

Would your store even get that many amiibos in stock of Shulk if there were that amount of pre-orders?
