Every one of them so far. Just waiting on Wave 4.
It's beautiful!

How rare are Sonic and Mega Man right now?
I've only seen 1 Mega Man and quite a few Sonics myself though the do seem to be fairly more common the rest of the wave.
 
Anyone know if Toad is supposed to be rare? I preordered one for in-store pickup at GameStop a little over a month ago, but they have already screwed me. Trying to have it shipped instead, but getting a server error.

Hoping it's not hard to come by, otherwise I'm going to have to stay on these guys to make sure they don't give it to someone else this time.

Under the assumption that it will be, but won't know for sure until they're released. Ironically it's the only one that has use in its own specific game and will be one of the more desirable ones since it didn't get a SSBU release, unlike the others, so of course Nintendo will ship only like 1 box to retailers.

If you want it and haven't got a preorder in, I would suggest getting to a store on release date, and if that's not possible then wait for inevitable times when it pops up online for 2 minutes at various retailers after release at 3:37 in the morning.
 
No no no. I bought extra Rosalina's because I knew there would be ones I wouldn't be able to get, and what do you know, I can't for the life of me find a King DeDeDe. And someone else couldn't find a Rosalina. However, he had an extra D3, hence we traded. Don't try and make up morality with this, your argument is b.s. By me trading I added to no "problem," and if anything I helped myself and one other person. And if I buy one for a friend, that slightly gets a "pass" by you? Give me a break.

I have a second Rosalina im currently looking to trade. I only got the second after everyone at Target on launch was able to get one. Then apparently once I left some guy came in and bought the remaining 12 in the store...so its not like it really mattered if i got that extra at all, at least tmy extra was going to someone who wasnt paying through the nose for it.

I also traded an extra captain falcon ordered on gohastings on /r/amiiboswap for someone who had an Ike, and I hadn't been able to find Ike yet. The guy seemed so excited and kept thanking me profusely. I cant see how im so awful for just trying to complete my collection and making other collectors happy in the process?
 
I've been away for awhile and I guess no Wave 4 news and the Little Mac Best Buy shipments haven't made him cheaper...still playing the waiting game I guess
 
Excuse me if im late but did anyone else get a new email from walmart regarding gold mario? its vack to its normal release i hope everyone else gets this email
 
Have we discussed that gold mario is in the US only? I find that very odd. They really would lock out the home market? This is not only a Walmart exclusive but a US one?

It's not a US exclusive, other countries just haven't announced it yet. Someone even posted an ad for it a little bit ago from a retailer outside of the US.

Didn't get any e-mail, but I did order so hopefully I'm fine

I swear if Japan gets exclusive gold Fire Emblem characters only at Lawson in return...there will be blood

This makes so much more sense
 
Wave 4 release date news, directly from @NintendoAUNZ:

A single date to release them all, without dumb exclusives at different dates. That's how you release wave 4. So cool. Congrats to all Aussie/NZ amiibros. Now, NoA... Listen, NoA, idk what are you up to with wave 4 but if you are taking this long to open preorders just to announce that Lucina will be a Taco Bell exclusive then I will be so done with Amiibo and probably cry for 2 hours. So please don't do that.

I wouldn't worry about that.

It'll be Del Taco.
 
Any AusGAF members know what the deal is with amiibos here?

Kirby, DK and Pikachu have been brought back with Japanese stock, and they've been doing a good job of keeping those in stock. But that's about it. Has anyone heard whispers of anything else on the way?

All I'm missing is Luigi and Diddy :(

Watch Pac-Mac be a happy meal toy.

Going by NZ stock, Marth and most of wave four (E: three) are part of the restock.

Luigi still in stock in EB NZ if you can get someone to send it over.

I snagged a Marth from EBGames. Japanese stock. but thats all news. I've called every store in Melbourne and they only have Kirby, DK, Pikachu and Link.

Yeah I saw Marth had been relisted on EB AU. Never saw him in stock though. In store or online.

Strange about Luigi still being around in NZ, hopefully he finds his way here again.
I wouldn't want to import him unless he's coming with Diddy. Shipping is expensive to do one figure at a time.
 
Hmm...just after midnight central time I got a notification from nowinstock that Wii Fit Trainer was ever so briefly available again from Walmart.com...I didn't see it until 2:30 a.m. so it was long gone by then, but that's rather...odd isn't it?
 
Just got another email from WalMart telling me the gold Mario pre-order is back on track for the original release date:

Wednesday's email, 8:37am
Original release date : 20 MAR 2015
New release date : 08 APR 2015
Should arrive by : 15 APR 2015

Today's email, 7:42am
Original release date : 08 APR 2015
New release date : 20 MAR 2015
Should arrive by : 27 MAR 2015

buy a gordita, get a Lucina

sounds like the best way to do Amiibos

How much does the gold Mario cost?

The same as any other Amiibo, $12.99.
