Wish we would get some Amiibo action. I am getting restless for the miibos!
 
I have a gut wrenching feeling that they're pretty much gonna try releasing the new amiibos with no pre-orders and see if that curbs scalping
 
I pre-ordered Wave 4 amiibos on Amazon japan few days ago.

And It sold out very quickly.

Thank god I pre-ordered these amiibos.

Now Robin, Lucina and Ness is mine!!!! :D

I just can't believe they would try that. At the very least, I'm hoping the retailers are actually aware and are able to order, otherwise it's just going to be a disaster. I may not even bother if this ends up being the case, because I know how fruitless the hunt is going to be, at least in my area.

You know you can order stuff over from NZ right? All of Wave Three except Ike has been readily available. I'm assuming this is mostly in-store too because the pre-order is very lenient compared to the rest of the world.
 
That comparison makes no sense though. Charizard was rare because of how trading card games work. You don't want to make a card that is not only very powerful but also of a very popular character anything other than rare, because you want people buying shit-tons of packs in order to get it. None of that applies here.

Im implying that Charizard will be rare by force, most likely as a store exclusive by ToysRus.Even so that one month production run is not looking good for us.You are right, mabye my trading card comparison was a bit silly but i was trying to highlight a point, just because a character is popular does not mean he will be common.
 
Why aren't Rosalina and Lucario, heck, all the store exclusives considered S tier?

Because of how many are on the wild, readily available for trade. If you check any amiibo trade forum you'll see lost of people offering Rosalina and Lucario for any of the S or SS tier amiibos, in the other hand you rarely see any of the SS tier offered for trade at all, and just a few S Tier offered (Usually looking for SS).

As I said already though, the evidence for Charizard only getting one month of production is quite poor. It's entirely possible, and in fact extremely likely that Charizard had a second production run in February, and likely will have one this month as well.

And I highly doubt Charizard will be exclusive to anyone.
 
Did Amazon UK prices for people who got Wave 4 pre-orders in change? I could have swore they were a little more when they first went up, but now they show up as 9.04 pounds, which is only a little over $100 here in the states. Can't complain to have the entire wave secure for only $106, thats not even $18 per figure with zero hassle. I'll take it.

Yes. They're much lower than they were on Feb. 3rd.

My order is sitting at £63.23.
