China does have a habit of taking things from manufacturing plants, after all. I'd give it a "possible".

I feel like you should go all in and make a new thread saying it not just a post ;-)

The amazon hype is dying down. That means they should go up any minute now right? hah

As far as I know, there's gonna be another shipment sometime this summer at GameStop. I had Ike preorderd originally but never got it when it came out. They told me they're gonna have to fulfill the preorder in the summer when they get more.

So did anyone else see this on the Amiibo reddit just now?
Removed pic as it was taken off Reddit for alleged misinformation.

How does this work?
Do I just need a Canadian shipping address or do i need a Canadian billing addy as well?

Don't believe Arul's lies.

I don't believe anyone at this point.

I take Amazon CS with a grain of salt. I mean, I'm sure they are getting a lot of questions, but I don't exactly trust them with my experience :/ Need to test multiple agents.

I don't believe anything anyone says!
TRU said 5am and it was 3am. Close but no cigar.

Ships only to Canada, and I think they're sold out now.
There will be 5 Marths available from 3:33~3:38 AM on a random morning in May at the Nintendo World Store.

just like TRU pre-orders will go live at 7-9AM, right? customer service reps already burned us once.

They said 7am, actually. They were 4 hours off on their estimate.

I still stand by the idea that if the Toys R Us rep didn't tweet it himself, it was Polygon who opted to tell people the wrong information based on a single conversation with a single rep.
Point is, we were mislead by Polygon, because if the rep didn't have a major outlet to BS, nobody would have given it any weight.
Not that they really should have, I mean it's Polygon.

Yea, not falling for this again >.>
Edit: LOL, quoted just in time to miss the edit XD
It was actually 7am EDT they said and it went up 4 hours earlier. I still woke up too late even for 7am but that was an epic bait and switch.
I'm surprised Polygon isn't a banned site on GAF yet :/
Gonna start my commute home:
If it goes up during that time, I'll rant when I get back online.
We are in the same boat because I need to get ready and run errands. FUCK IT!
Kids are dumb, that's why. Ignorance is bliss.

Amiibo's are for children?

Those children have dead eyes. They know that they're playing with worthless items. They know the true answer.

So we expect the sell out order to go as follows?
Lucina
Robin
Splatoon 3-pack
Charizard
Wario
Splatoon individuals
Pacman
That is my assumption

The kids are shielded from the knowledge of the uncommon amiibos, as if they don't even exist.

Poor Pacman, I really was worried about him being rare this wave, but he seems easier to get than most.
Well, being Canadian helps. I think you need both billing and shipping though though...

Oi. Guess I'll have to try and get Robin and Lucina from amazon.com.

Kirby is common? lol I have yet to see him in person.

Maybe Amazon is awaiting confirmation on exactly how much they will receive. I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case.
Yeah, I think he's gonna be megaman-rare, if that makes sense. I feel as though that Wario will be the most common.
Just shipping is necessary. I order on amazon.ca all the time to have stuff shipped to my wife.
Yeah it didn't make a lot of sense. I mean does that mean Amazon Canada already got theirs from the manufacturer if Amazon only puts up preorders once they receive the product or information from the manufacturer?

I thought stock from Nintendo was determined months in advance? Anyway I'm guessing it might be more of an internal inventory decision.
That would make the most sense
Wario and Char - common
Pac - 3rd party rarity (same as sonic and MM)
Robin and Luc - One shipment only same as other FE's
Splatoon - No idea.
This made me giggle pretty hard
He should be holding a Ness, Little Mac, Marth, WFT, or Villager. Gold Mario isn't even close to a golden ticket.

Stumbled onto this while refreshing everything as much as humanly possible.
Essentially a slide-show of close up Wave 4 shots.

Wario seems to be uncommon, Pac seems more common. Rest is probably right though going by the Gamestop sell-out order.
Although so far it seems the general amount of them are not much allocation.
Awesome. Good to know for wave 5 at least, lol.
Plus, then Ramona Flowers can bring them to me during sleepytime.
Welp, I trust your judgement more than mine on that one.

I see the inkling female to be rare and perhaps the 3 pack. I see the inkling male though just hogging up shelves.
I think only the the 3-pack will be rare for Splatoon.
