Oh my god.
I'll be in NYC for the first time in an eternity today.
But my bus arrives at 9pm
and that is when they close.
Stopped by Target this afternoon, a Nintendo rep was setting out the new Super Mario series. So naturally, I picked up the last SSB Yoshi they had in case he gets replaced by the SM one, I had $10 in my pocket so why not 
I have a Gold Mario on pre-order (hasn't shipped yet), and maybe I'll get a Toad another time, but I'm not really interested in this line overall.

Is the line still long? So pissed that I didn't get to go to NYC today. I'm usually there on Fridays, but had to change my schedule around this week. grrr.
I got everything except Lucina pre-ordered from overseas.
I wanted her the most ;-;

All I know is I'll be getting another Yoshi, love how his Mario Line amiibo looks. I'm also considering replacing Luigi. Smooth Criminal Luigi has some charm but...I might want one in a more normal pose. We'll see.

Not sure why an order being processed makes you nervous. Mine is still in processing, and is scheduled to ship March 24 to 27. So, feeling just fine. Don't worry

I'm not putting in any effort outside of Gold/Silver Mario to collect the Mario Party series. I already obtained the Mario amiibo, and 2 Toads.
My girlfriend is essentially in charge of any Mario Party amiibos for our collection, I don't have the strength (And by that I mean spare gift cards) to deal with Peach, Bowser, Luigi or Yoshi.

I won't be able to get to a store until late tomorrow at the earliest...I'm never going to get a Toad, am I?
I just want him for Mario Party and Captain Toad
I'm sure there will be restocks of him. Might take a couple weeks, but he should return.
Why 2 toads?

I have 2 golds (got them by sheer luck and a mix up).... I will probably get rid of one. Not sure how to do it or what to trade it for as I don't really collect amiibo's per say... I just really like the gold one.
If anybody is willing to trade. Maybe we can work something out???

Anyone know when Walmart is expected to get more Gold Mario amiibo? I was 10th in line this morning.

Is the trading thread still active? I have 2 extra Dedede's and a Lucario to trade if I have problems with Wave 4. I was planning on using them on Gold Mario but I was able to walk in and get one last night.
Toad also looks more common than I anticipated. I have one pre-orderd at Gamestop but might cancel since TRU had them.

Got to Walmart at 6:30~ish after staying up since 1 AM so I wouldn't oversleep and miss out. I ended up being fifth in line and everything was going swimmingly until it turned out that the store somehow only got 5 Gold Marios and the girlfriend of a guy who had already gotten one (both of them were right in front of me in line) decided she needed another one for herself in addition to the MP10 + figure bundle and I left completely empty handed. Needless to say I was devastated, and with no online or in-store restocks apparently planned I guess I'm 500% screwed

If you have a spare wii fit, little Mac or Marth I would trade with you
I have a spare, loose Rosalina and an extra Kirby but other than that nothing :/

I didn't have much faith in Amazon having Toad ready for release day, so I preordered one on Amazon and one at Gamestop.

My MP10 stuff has arrived!
Ordered an extra Toad in case the other would be cancelled. Guess it's available for trade now
Oh, and my Gold Mario shipped as well! Good day.

Until they take the Gold Mario page down at Walmart.com, keep a close watch and sign up for alerts and whatnot.
I would expect at least one more round orders opening up, there are bound to be orders cancelling over the next few days as a result of bad payment info, and they'll likely be put back up for sale.

Might be the funniest thing I've ever seen.
Not the same thing at all lol
I don't know if you're joking but I will do that loltrade me bloodborne and i'll give you gold mario
Watched some unboxings of the Super Mario series' amiibo and I have to say... I really think these look much, much better than their Smash Bros. counterparts. No ugly plastic stands, no small details completely botched. Looks good - they actually look like a much higher quality figure, in my opinion

Went to Meijer today to pick up Codename S.T.E.A.M., and they had plenty of Mario Party Amiibos. There was some extra bundles with the Mario amiibo in it, and Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, and Bowser had a ton of stock.
Toad had the lowest, but even then there was 3 or 4 of him left. I thought the amiibo all looked great, but personally the only one I will be getting is Toad when he arrives in the mail next week from Gamestop.
Still, even though I kind of expected it I'm still pretty damn surprised. So this is what it is like when Nintendo bothers to stock stores with amiibos. lol

Gold Mario No Longer Sold On Wal Mart's Website
Website says the following on the Gold Mario page:

Hope this is a good indicator that wave 4 will be the same and is not going to be a nightmare to get like wave 3. Just imagine how awesome could be to walk into your favorite retail at the amiibo section and comfortably grab a Ness, a Robin and a Lucina?

Hahaha I did the same thing today.
Had the 5 Amiibos and the MP10+Mario bundle all pre-ordered at EB Games and paid in full.
However, Toys R Us here in Canada did a 3 for $30 deal on Amiibo, so I bought the 5 Amiibos plus an extra Luigi, then just returned the Luigi back right after the transaction and got $11.30 back (figure+tax).
Also, the MP10+Mario bundle wasn't on sale at Future Shop, but they were giving away a $20 credit towards your next game purchase that is $59.99 or over, so I can use that for Bloodborne on Tuesday.
Bought those and then went to EB Games and got all my money back. I told them if they price matched I would have gladly bought the items from them, but fuck them. They never do good sales or give away credit and stuff.

was any reason given why Wave 3 of Amiibos have so many hard to finds/unicorns? It seems like everything except for Bowser (and now toon link, I seem to find 1 at every store now) is at best Difficult to find, and at worst "you better import from japan".
It could also be Memphis, I don't know anyone collecting Amiibos, but then again I also don't know who games like I do.
I hope wave 4 isn't this bad, I really want a Ness and Robin...

I'm glad to see Toad isn't exceptionally hard to get. It's going to make a good gift for the Mrs.
The retailer exclusives make it look proportionally bad. That's 4/11 amiibo that you could only find in one store, on one day (if you were lucky). For the other 7, only Ike and Dedede are unicorns. Sonic, Mega Man, Sheik, Bowser, and Toon Link can still be ordered off Gamestop.com
yeah i hear they are stocked to the max with lucario, meta knight, rosalina , i am so jelly , you can basically walk in and get them now
New report from somebody on reddit:
It seems like Megaman, Sonic, and Sheik are also pretty easy to find. I even saw a Toon Link and Sheik at Wal-Mart, and as a general rule of thumb, if I see something in Wal-Mart it's pretty much guaranteed to be common as shit. Well, barring this whole Gold Mario fiasco I guess.
I'm super crossing my fingers... but more people know Bowser and Yoshi than... NESS, so i'm not counting on it.
gah...meta knight available all day long!
coulda let bestbuy .com put some more up so I could order one Zippedpinhead
Member
You are probably right, I have been seeing sheik in more locations as well. Sonic, I saw at best buy but no where else, megaman I only see online. Its just frustrating that you can't go in and buy these all the time. I'm not against some being "uncommon", just against the "total lack of being able to ever obtain these again" that seems to effect the store exclusives, Ike and Dedede.
Well damn that's true
Fingers crossed here as well god damn.Yes omfg, they are bigger, more colorful and vibrant than their Smash Bros significants. It's like Amiibo 2.0. I think it's because the Smash Bros amiibo aims more towards a slightly realistic look while the SM amiibo uses the cartoony look we see on Super Mario games by EAD.
