MM and Sonic are uncommon. You should be able to find them with relative ease along with Shiek, Toon Link and Bowser.

I'd say no. Easily grabbed megaman and saw plenty sonics when shopping recently.

I see. They didn't seem rare but I wasn't sure. I thought Shiek was gonna be rare, but I guess she ended up common?

Everyone except Bowser, Toon Link, Shiek, Sonic and Mega Man is rare.

Rarest of wave 3 is probably Rosalina, Meta Knight or Shulk.

Rosalina actually ended up rare? Damn, I messed up not buying multiple when I had the chance. But oh well, scalping's too much of a hassle and I mainly care about having the figures to use in games and shit anyways.

I'd say sheik is the most rare out of all the ones listed. I've only seen her once and there were like 2 only.

Some people think Sheik is rare? I have literally seen her every single place I go to that sells amiibo. Wal-mart, target, gamestop all have plenty of her.

 

[Diggeh]

Took a little break from Amiibo collecting because I had other things to pay for, but the recent Direct made me want to get back into it. Who ended up rare from the February and March waves? Are Mega Man and Sonic at all rare?

Read Best OP please!

 

[GeekComplex]

Just came by for the usual excuse to post an amiibo related pic I found while waiting for these damned pre-orders.
Hope all is well with Amiibo-Gaf.
Hopefully news on Amazon/Walmart/Target-minus Jiggly tonight/tomorrow eh!?

Read Best OP please!

For real though, it's the best format this OP could possibly be, and has SO MUCH info. Thanks again for all that!

Guys, Someone is selling me a Captain falcon amiibo for 820 Mexican pesos (like 70 US dollars)

Do I buy it or not? That's the cheapest I found here and I really want him. Only detail is the box is damaged but the amiiibo is completely fine (and I don't care about the box)

Between MM, Sonic, Toon etc... Yeah for me. I was surprised to see her when I did.

Nah, 70 bones is a lot of money for just one amiibo. The easiest way to go about it is to trade into him.

You are very optimistic.

If he means that much to you, just trade a couple other amiibos to get him. I wouldn't spend $70 on any amiibo personally.

 

[CorvoSol]

So how much at this point constitutes a reasonable price for Shulk? Like I'm looking at one that's 35 bucks after shipping as the lowest I can find at the moment. Should I go for that, or hold out?

I absolutely want c. Falc... I'd never pay that much for one amiibo. Ever.

$35 sounds about normal. Not a horrible price. Might come down a bit when the May 1st GameStop restock comes. I should say IF the restock comes.

You can get an import Shulk on Amazon for around $32.

 

[ThisBeJason]

You can get an import Shulk on Amazon for around $32.

That's a good price. I doubt it'll go less than $30 even after the May 1st restock.

Also if you need Lucario, he is around $25 which is a great price. WFT euro/JPN are also $20-25 on Amazon.

I might go in for WFT, but I dunno about Lucario. The only Pokemon I'm interested in are Charizard and Mewtwo.

 

[Vylash]

Have you given up your humanity yet? That's like requirement #1 for joining Line.

I don't think I have you on line

I suppose it's the day off worrying that helped.
Just going into things with a fresh "Everyone on the same playing field" feeling is...
Nice!

Is Amazon not a choice?

Ok thanks

Now I will patiently wait until Nintendo puts more stock (they won't).

We all gotta get they new amiibo!

 

[CorvoSol]

Bought Shulk and WFT. Not too bad a deal. Don't really need WFT, but she's nice enough.

I'm in Mexico :/

SORRY!

SORRY!

[kewlmyc]

From I understand, you guys alert each other of when amiibos go on order via Line? Or some sort of other alert system?

 

[RootCause]

Are we expecting anything to drop tonight?

Expecting? No.

Could it? Absolutely anything could drop tonight.

 

[Danthrax]

Yep, when you're in the LINE Amiibo Alert Chat, whenever someone posts in there, it dings your phone as if you got a text message. (Hence there are strict rules about posting in that chat.)

Looking to get Robin, so can I get in on this?

 

[Josh5890]

I feel like us waiting for some retailers to start pre-orders is like this time last year when Smash Gaf waited every night for Ridley to be announced as playable.

From where and how much?
I need both too especially shulk for Xenoblade 3ds

Fairly certain they're discussing the JP versions on Amazon.

 

[ExVicis]

Is this where I go to find out how to preorder a Lucina Amiibo? I thought Samus and Little Mac was about it but I'm realizing I did also want Lucina and that'll probably be hard to find.

As of now, Amazon, Wal-Mart, and Target have yet to go live with pre-orders.
Toys R Us, Best Buy, and GameStop are allegedly totally sold out of her, at least online.

You're in the right place, but getting her will be difficult. As of right now she and robin sell out the quickest when preorders go up. We're talking like several minutes

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I haven't found Toad anywhere over here, think I'll ever be able to see him in the stores???

Also, what about the Splatoon Amiibos???

Any chance on these being in the stores on shelves???

 

[ExVicis]

Ugh that's unfortunate, and it looks that no one has a clear idea of the time they're gonna go live with that. Any less mainstream shops possibly having preorders in the future?

 

[thetrin]

It would've been nice if Shulk amiibos had been available up until the actual release of Xenoblade. Boy that would've been nice.

 

[Koppai]

The thing about the rares you speak of, I see them hover around $30 on import sites. That's not too bad of a price. Now stuff like Villager and Pit are like $60-$80 each <_<;

 

[CorvoSol]

Amazon US. Shulk was 30 bucks and WFT was 25 with free shipping for both. Threw ZoE HD in there and all told I spent maybe 70 bucks. Shit's already shipping to my house.

Meanwhile, the TRU order for Lucina and Robin remains nebulous.

 

[StrikeNinja24]

The increase in import pricing is scary. I got Captain Falcon on play asia for about 20 bucks in December.

Now? Over double the amount.

 

[GeekComplex]

Not likely. There's always a chance of a local shop we don't actively discuss here, but otherwise we usually explore most all pre-order opportunities.

 

[Anime]

Are we expecting anything to drop tonight?

Yep from 7 to 9 A.M. its alright you can sleep now and wake up before that time

Spoiler

lol

 

[motherxwolf]

i had a dream i walked into a store and none of the amiibos were rare and they were all just sitting there on shelves waiting to get bought. it was a nice dream

 

[Neo Dark]

Smash ballet. We'll never have peace.

Is that like DDR with Smash characters? Are we all requried to wear tutus?
