Yeah I just got this email too. Now the question will they even ship it. Fingers crossed I know a lot of people over in the Majoras Mask LE thread are getting Best Buy cancelations two days before release. Bummer
Bleh, not too impressed on the paint job on the sword's blade, but otherwise, Ike looks rather good. Thought he kind of had a "derp" face going on at first, but at a second glance, it's not bad.
As for Dedede WOW is he impressive. There's a small gold spot on the white part of his coat, near the thumb on his left hand (guessing the paint chipped or it wasn't painted on or something), but otherwise, he feels nice & heavy. Easily top 3 made amiibo thus far.
Next week when I get Sonic & Mega Man (no idea on Meta Knight, hoping to get lucky with with Shulk & Rosalina and order him online), then I'll finally take a picture of my updated collection, after doing some rearranging.

I know, it's so pristine in the box. I might be getting a cubicle job so I figure they'll make nice decorations.
Good find, go with that.

I think she meant specially the amount peoe pay for Rosalina on eBay
Stopped into GameStop, asked if there were any new shipments this week. He said they got a box each of Sheik and Toon Link in, but they all sold already. My Ike/DDD/Sonic/Mega Man pre-orders are still yet to come.
After that I stopped into Wal-Mart to get something else, but I always walk by the games section. And I was shocked to see this:
Bowser, Luigi and Zelda at the bottom! This was the first time ever that my Wal-Mart has had anything other than Wave 1 commons. It felt like seeing Marth or Villager at any other store lol. It was nice to see. I think it's safe to say that those of us here will never again find a new amiibo we don't already have at a Wal-Mart, but I'm happy to see they haven't abandoned them entirely. Just probably gonna be ultra commons there though, and later than every other store.

I've looked everywhere I could think of, and had zero luck unfortunately.
I cut it out of a screenshot from the recent Persona 5 trailer. ^^ I got the idea from someone who did the same thing with the cat character over in that thread.
Importing from Japan would be about 30 dollars total including shipping I think.
Nippon-Yassan, Nin-Nin Games, Play Asia all had him. Don't know about Amazon Japan.
I think Germany is probably a good bet too.
Still nowhere as high as limited edition Elsa dolls lol. Go show her those and see how sje reacts xD

I'm worried about getting Meta-Knight since I didn't pre order. Any info on if Best Buy will have some extra on the shelves?
I think someone on r/Amiibo was saying there might be some on the floor, but only at some BestBuys.
A friend of mine who works at BB said that they received 5 to sell. The photo that AmiiboNews shared earlier looks like there were 6. Get to BB early!
Seems to be unavailable everywhere at the moment. Guess I've just got to be patient for now.
What about Big Bad Toys? Cannot check myself right now cause phone.

He had preorders for both. Both were sold. The manager didnt refund his preorder because he is going to try to get him his preorder... not likely at all.

No confirmation on my Ike so far. Got Shulk and Toon Link
Who's that guy again? I remember seeing him in fighting game tournaments.

I thought it was Catwoman for some reason. I forget all about Persona 5 trailer!
Yeah, he is pretty amazing with She-Hulk and Spencer.
Status there is "PREORDER - SOLD OUT" :{
Yeah, I was just looking at that one, saw another on eBay for $28.00 + $9.00 shipped from Japan. I suppose that's an option

Is DeDeDe set to release tomorrow or Friday?
Depends. My Meijer had Dedede, Ike, Mega Man, & I think Sonic (I didn't request him when the employee was taking them out of the box), while it seems that some GameStop are getting him next week when Sonic & Mega Man arrive. I think Toys R Us are getting him this week?

Crap. I was thinking of MetaKnight and said DeDeDe. Never mind.

Grandville Meijer had those too, didn't buy em as I have preorders but yea
Meta Knight is the 20th. I'm seriously hoping there'll be a quick period to which we can order him online. That's been the only way I was able to get Rosalina & now Shulk.
Thank goodness I don't care for Lucario, even if he is considered rare.
We preordered.

Anyone else just wanna cry because they didnt get a Shulk today?
Cause I sure do.
Lets cry together.
It's coming. Did you do in store pick up or shipping?
