I got an email from Nebraska Furniture Mart saying that my order was cancelled "due to their strict security/fraud measures. Although cancellation of the order does not imply fraud, it was considered high risk for shipping."

I ordered a single Mega Man amiibo and I was shipping it to Maine.

Maybe it's because I had separate shipping/billing addresses (both were in Maine, however billing address was my parents house from my debit card I got before college, and my shipping address is the apartment I now live in), but they were both under my name.

That's a bummer.

Last I checked Mega Man was on gamestop, go check it out.

No problem! Hope you get your MM soon.

How close is mega man's mega buster supposed to be to his head?

Rosalina and Luma Officially Discountinued at Target

http://www.reddit.com/r/amiibo/comments/2ypl3v/rosalina_officially_discontinued/

They won't get anymore in or carry it, that doesn't mean other retailers won't. It could be that Target is continuing their choice to not carry so many Amiibos in store and this one was next. It was sold at the Nintendo World Store recently, so it may mean it is coming to new retailers soon.

Or its done, which is the most likely scenario.

Can they give me the Rosalina cut out?

What? This can't be real. Everyone knows Nintendo must give it a MSRP cut before it is officially discontinued.

Can they give me the Rosalina cut out?

Hmm didn't think about that. I kind of want it now too

Gold Mario NOT delayed at Wal Mart, official statement:
http://myamiibonews.com/2015/03/walmart-delays-some-gold-mario-pre-orders-into-april/

Guess we'll be getting emails soon.

This is very good to hear , i just hope that theres no more cancellations from now on , people who were fortunate to pre order one should be able to receive one without any letdowns.I don't want to see a Majoras Mask 2.0 with these.

 

[iShouldGoPro]

Top two stories of today was that Rosalina is no more and that the gold Mario delay was false?

Glad I got a Rosalina! She's about to become villager rare!! Woooot!

Wish I could've snagged a second one

 

[MrPressStart]

Dumb question, but will the gold and silver mario's be available in Walmart stores, or are they online only?

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Dumb question, but will the gold and silver mario's be available in Walmart stores, or are they online only?

Gold will be available in Walmart stores from what I've heard though quantity seems to be more limited than say Rosalina in Target.

Sliver Mario is not available from Walmart or any other store for the time being.

Blood will be shed. They should really limit it to 1 per person. Not sure why they decided on 2. People will be bringing their family with them at this rate.

 

[ChaosXVI]

Heads will roll, and the electronics section shall run with the blood of those who lack strength.

But no, hopefully everything works out and scalpers are kept to a minimum.

I posted that picture yesterday from a Georgia Wal Mart that said 1 per person. So maybe some stores will reduce it to 1, likely if they have low stock.

If I think too much about it, I begin to want a Lucina cut out as well.

And I still want none of these. Good for those who do want them of course.

Come on, NOA, do it!

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

Everyone did. They went up 3 weeks ago and sold out in both the US and CA in less than 1 second. Every single unit was purchased by a botnet run by a scalper in Florida.

This is 100% believable. Not even being sarcastic.

That's nice. I wonder if there will be any differences (copyright date) to show when one was made vs the other?

Either way it's nice for anyone who has missed out due to scalpers.

I wan the Luigi´s Mansion 2 Statue so bad, I even offered my rarest sealed amiibos for it (Villager, Little Mac).

Hopefully someone bites.

That thing goes for a lot. I didn't even know about it till after it was gone as well.

 

[fredrancour]

Welp. finally got MM and sonic. glad my prediction of less scarcity for them came true.

This is 100% believable. Not even being sarcastic.

Modify the story to be about a half-dozen competing bot-nets and I'd buy it more.

I saw your post in the B/S/T thread! I had no idea that thing was so rare. Was that a platinum award or was it something you had to redeem with coins? I don't ever remember seeing it. If it was a platinum award, that means I chose something else for that year because I was platinum every year!

Ok folks, who is ready to wait inside walmart for the midnight amiibo release!

It was 1200 coins. I didn't pick it up since I had enough junk at the time.

 

[pete_clarf]

That makes me feel a little better, I guess. I do like the stuff that I've acquired with coins. I imagine that if I had gotten the Luigi statue, I'd regret not having something else. The grass is always greener.

Forgive me if this is not new information, but I just noticed that Sonic is in stock at gamestop.com...

...Not sure if that is news?

 

[NateDrake]

I didn't even know it was rare. What would classify it "goes for a lot"?

Sonic seems to be fairly common. I saw 5 today at Best Buy.

Same!

Love them so much. I hope we get more things like that with whatever Nintendo's next Reward program ends up being

 

[Axispowers]

Here in Tokyo. Went to a few stores and most of them are sold out. I just remember hearing Japan was the land of Amiibos everywhere but I mostly see wave one stuff floating around.

 

[ZeroX03]

My friend just found this locally in NZ. What's a Japanese Marth worth these days?

 

[poy1990]

My kingdom for a Shulk amiibo

 

[theSlacker]

Around $100 on ebay I believe. For the Luigi's Mansion club Nintendo statue I mean. Think the old platinum reward statue of all the characters together goes for like $50.

I was wondering if my Mega Man was a misprint because his arm is away from his head when all the others I've seen his megabuster is pretty much touching his head?

Wow. I have the Luigi Mansion Club Nintendo statue still in box. Have the Mario and company reward on my gaming shelf. Looks great on display.

 

[kirby_fox]

Saw like 6 Mega Man at best buy. Haven't been paying attention, but if you're still looking for him.

About 24.99, lol - I think I paid around $30 for him off of eBay back in January
