So...chances of coming across a Gold Mario in-store the first week?

Or is this one literally a gone after a few hours, and never to be seen on shelves again?

First week? Almost none. But I have a feeling this won't be like the other exclusives. I'm thinking we'll see multiple restocks, this is just the first batch.

Absolutely!

Though you better actually follow through. I am tired of selling/trading with GAF, I still have a Rosie on me that so many asked about, but no one actually bit!

Toats!

If I can't find him tomorrow. I'm not a crazy amiibo hunter like you guys. I mostly get the ones I like (if I can!).

I have MegaMan, Sonic, Star Fox, Peach, Bowser and Zelda. I also bought Sheik on a whim in the B/S/T thread.
Someone bought me Zelda because they saw my Sheik one.
I have no idea who Sheik is...

I held off on Mario because of the newer cuter ones.


Gold Mario looks UGLY!
 
I couldn't sleep tonight so I though I would check my local walmart. Stopped by and was able to pick up two gold Mario's. They still have two remaining. Couldn't believe they still had some.
 
You know what I'm still wondering? What about that Silver Mario.

If thats the Platinum reward for Club Nintendo I will absolutely jump off a cliff -was banned-
 
Well I failed my son.. Some guy bought all the inventory (7) at the only WM near me. Apparently this guy has some pull at that store..
 
If somebody has a spare Goldie for a poor EU peasant, I would be extremely happy. I can also throw something into the mix (villager, pit, meta or ddd).
 
was #10 when the walmart near me only got 8...

the other one across town is getting their shipment in around 8 am so i'll be heading there around 6.

fingers crossed.

Sorry to hear, chum. Don't let it get you down, scalpers get the best of most people and there isn't much you can do about them. Especially if the stores in your area are friendly to them.
 
Good luck with Gold Mario everyone!

I got my order of 2 shipped from Wal Mart in a 8x8x7 box. Should be more than enough space! Need that NIB Mint NA!

I'm heading to Wal Mart for when they open at 7am to price match Toys R Us 3 for $30 deal. Will get all the SMB line with an extra Toad since I have to get 6. Even with the extra one it will be $15 cheaper than my 5 at full price at EB Games. Will get my money back this evening from them.

How do you know the size of the box they used?
 
Byron Bluth said:
It's in the details in the FedEx shipping/tracking page.

Well of course it is.

Looks like my single is in a 6x6x6 box. Well that sure is super, since the cardboard is taller then 6". This is what I get for passing up getting one last night in a store since I was already getting one.

I think I'm going to hold off on these for a bit until there's a sale...

There is apparently a 3 for $30 sale at Toys R Us starting tomorrow.

Shit.
My Toad is is in a box with: 8x6x5

But, they put Gold Mario in: 6x6x6

I'm opening them both anyways, but still.

I guess I'll have to see how they look when they arrive.
Toad is supposed to be here Saturday and Mario on Monday.

I ended up canceling my order for Toad on Amazon as I wanted them to come together, but I got screwed on that idea anyways.

Yeah, I'm trying not to overreact until it gets here, but I am already stressing out about that box size. I don't even know what I can do about it since it's not like I can exchange it for a new one.

Continues to try not to overreact...

Bleah, that sucks. I was probably going to leave my Gold Mario sealed since the in-game functions aren't any different than the regular version (unless they announced something I missed?).
 
Whelp, my Walmart preorder that has 2 coming was shipped in a 6x6x6 box. One is for a friend who keeps them sealed as well. I'll be rather upset if they bent the cardboard.

Inside of Wal Mart and waiting! This is Canada so no Gold Mario just the regular SMB Wave. There are 13 of us now.

Have them behind the counter and are doing 2 per person.

Lots of people looking for gold Mario left hahahaha. I had my pick of what they got. Luigis all had white marks on his overalls so I'll have to go elsewhere and return this one later.

They price matched the 3 for $30 TRU is doing!
Click to expand...

great for the price match. i hope my luigi doesn't have the white marks.
 
So are they just straight up not making any more Captain Falcons? I just want his costume in Mario Kart 8, I don't even want the damn figure. :(
 
My Toad from Best Buy is out for delivery, so I will have it today! Same for my Mario Party bundle from Amazon. My Peach and Gold Marios from WalMart are still in IN :(.
