Try firefox, even though I have them just for the heck of it I clicked on pre order for Wario for example and it works just fine
No you're not alone. I'm also after a complete NA set

Had all of them from amazon UK but as soon as they were available at walmart I canceled the amazon UK orders(except for ness) Im also picky want them all from NA too
I can't decide if that would've been the better route. It would've been cheaper, but I sleep so much better now that I'm not up all night chasing chat room rumors from Esteban's cock.
Its not fair that Europe gets Wave 4 first but still i suppose thats another plus for NoE compared to NoA
Yep, full NA set so far and if everything works out with my preorders I'll just need a greninja
EB NZ changed their release dates to the 25th today, Mighty Ape shipping tomorrow.
For anyone left who wants a Ness, Robin or Lucina check MA tomorrow morning. When they go to ship stock they'll take money from pre-orders and people without enough money will get their orders cancalled. That stock will be put back up for sale.

Other countries have always preordered all of Wave 5/6/whatever/Mewtwo/Lucas and Amazon US STILL HASN'T GONE UP.
ESTABAAAAAAAAAAAN
Yep. I won't import, even though I want a complete collection, for some reason it'd still feel incomplete if it was composed by Amiibo from different regions.
I actually saw an Ike like a month+ after it released in the EB in Queen Street. Meta Knight in a JB Hifi somewhere.
Where'd you get the info though?
Mighty Ape just put them up.
Okay my friend just told me that Brian refunded his PygeHD order through PayPal, but insists he still sent the amiibo. So we'll see if it arrives, in which case that would give him a shred of credibility back.
So glad I didn't try and go for a full set after they launched.

Just got emails from EB saying Lucina, Robin, Ness and Charizard are in the post <3!!!
Hey guys... Lucina
has been delayed =(
Here I was hoping it would tie me over until the amiibo released but nope. Instead, I guess I'm getting both in June. Guess it's the month of Lucina for me. Have we figured out why Walmart is shipping it in June? Oh and Europe gets it a whole month before NA?

Nope I got tired of pre-orders being screwed up and store exclusives I open mine all anyway and throw away the packaging so u can't tell there from a different region. Also I don't care about a complete collection just picked up the characters I like has made this whole thing stress free
Because you chose free shipping.

I envy those who don't keep a sealed box collection. I do have doubles of my favorite characters so I can enjoy and appreciate amiibo the way they were intended, but it's difficult when your favorite characters are so difficult to acquire. In my case so far, Ness and Rosalina being retailer exclusives.
I need more sleep. Thought it was the date they were shipping out. Didn't occur to me that it was the arrival date. Makes more sense then lol. Was more worried about being able to get the pre-orders in then what some things actually said it seems

I noticed when placing my Charizard order that Walmart offered two FREE shipping options. "Value" shipping arriving June 4 and "Standard" shipping arriving June 3. I didn't notice when I placed my Lucina order first because as we've learned, one extra click can be the difference between Order Confirmed and Sold Out.
So I can expect Charizard in my mailbox Wednesday 6/3 and Lucina Thursday 6/4.

Had some weirdness with my debit card today. Who wants to place bets on my Jigglypuff order getting killed?

Mad jelly. Where's the pics?
Reminds me of how Best Buy sent me an e-mail that was basically:
"Based off your recent purchases, here are some recommendations:
Majora's Mask New 3DS XL
Metaknight Amiibo
other out of stock shit"
Okay it's too dark to take proper photos (need natural light so I don't catch the reflections) so some close ups will have to do.
I'm particularly impressed with Robin and Lucina faces
Holy shit they didn't screw up the faces! Robin looks fantastic. Lucina is a little sultry but still good.
Not sure what's happening with my order. My EB Games doesn't call for online pre-orders, even though they've got my phone number. I suspect stock is coming in early because of Anzac Day, so maybe tomorrow.

so i placed 2 orders with pygehd. i emailed trying to cancel one and when he didn't reply i opened paypal disputes. this was before the scam admittance. i had filed the disputes as non receive and he has until the 28th to respond. i just sent an email to paypal with a link to the tweet and the contents of it as well. should i bother trying to email him again? if he doesnt respond, will i automatically win?
also, so pissed i missed lucina yesterday.

I don't actually have intention of collecting Amiibo for myself, but I have a friend who would like nothing more than the Falco Amiibo when their released so I said I would get it for him. I really do hope it's possible to get it since it's the only Falco related product from Nintendo I can remember.
If I was happy to pay above the retail price is it going to be a problem obtaining? Obviously it hasn't been announced yet but with E3 around the corner I can't imagine it's too far off.

If you don't mind paying above retail you'll easily be able to buy on ebay or import from Japan. The current amiibo release schedule will mean he's quite far away though, end of the year probably.
e: just checked your profile, you're in Australia. Yeah you should just be able to pre-order from EB when it becomes available, the Aussie stock for pre-orders is good.
Really? Didn't notice that. Either way I had the same thought going through my head
Wow... Lucina looks really good. Even better than the pictures Nintendo gave to retailers. Now if only they removed her supportOkay it's too dark to take proper photos (need natural light so I don't catch the reflections) so some close ups will have to do.

Edit: here's a reminder
Not sure if it's the lighting but Nintendo's pictures make her look disappointing compared to yours
Welp, time to check my EB tomorrow to see if mine came in. Yours looks great!

Has Amazon US still not done pre-orders? I'd really like to order from they're the only place I haven't had problems with.
Nope.
Welp, my international order just shipped. #YOAO
No they have not done any preorders.
