They're masterfully controlling the market. You just don't understand. It's good business.

Dreams where you find 2 WFT, a Fox and Little Mac at Walmart are the worst.
Glad the EU is getting Wave 4, just a few more days before we at NA can be dissappointed legitimately

NA: You get STEAM but have to wait several months to use the Amiibos!
EU: You get the Amiibos but still have to wait for STEAM!
Sense? None.
First post, (was finally accepted after 3 months)! My wife, four kids, and I (We hail from Canton MI) are avid Amiibo collectors. I'd like to say thank you, as I have greatly appreciated this site, and all of the informative, and nice people that post on this thread. Now that I can post, I will contribute to the greater good of what everyone has been working towards here: To inform others, that are collectors, of opportunities to obtain Amiibos that they may be missing from their collections

Welcome! Your name really sums up amiibo collecting in a nutshell.
Nah, we only get Charizard and Wario here. I don't believe these other 4 Amiibos exist. Photos of them are obviously shopped.
;_;
Thanks, My sons and I went to TRU on the day that they were supposed to have done the pre-orders 3 hours early (3 hour MH4U marathon) only to be turned away like many others. We thought about going again @ 6 am this Monday coming up, however, I haven't really heard anything tangible as far as confirmation of this event yet. I did hear that they would have pre-order tickets for Pac, and Greninja. We were there three hours early to be 1st in line at Gamestop on the apocalyptic pre-order day for the full bundle & Splatoon 3 pack, albeit waiting for an hour. So, we pretty much just need Greninja, and Jigglypuff. Does anyone have a link, or some concrete evidence for TRU on Monday? Thanks.
Damn it.
That's not the superior blue one
Zzzzzzzzzzz....
Really? For an EU Ness. I figure the trade would be even even since they never got gold Mario.

Gold Mario is worth at least 40 Ness. Probably 80 Wario.
and a million diggehs. TRU story. :O

Don't forget $82938923892382398 Diggeh Tax!
They didn't put up any (or at least many) pre-order cancellations the day before launch, which is what they usually do. My guess is they oversold.

I can't seem to find the information....
How much are the pre orders cards gonna cost on Toy's R Us on Monday?

We gotta pay diggeh tax too? D:
They must have oversold pretty badly. I think I ordered them the hour they went up. When I ordered Lucina was already delisted though.
That's what happens when you require no deposit or authorization to pre-order with easy cancellations.
Interestingly Robin went back in stock for an hour a few days ago. Must be before stock arrived and they knew final numbers.

If the US rarity will be similar to the one here (EU) you are very wrong. PAC-MAN is much much harder to find than Wario and Charizard.
Lucario cost $1.

i was first in line at gamestop just for ness. After the system crash bullshit, I felt like I would be a dick to preorder two with people behind me.

Might be a case like Sheik or Diddy though. Where she was hard to find at first and then became Uncommon/Common as weeks went on.
Fox Mulder

with how fucked ammibo stock has been, you can't really afford to sit around and hope that happens though.
Windom Earle

I dunno about that because restocks are usually not happening here, but there certainly are curious differences in rarity between the regions. Best examples are probably WFT, Ike and Marth, all being pretty common over here. (While Zelda is actually hard to find)
This guy gets it.

I was able to preorder the Splatoon 3-Pack from Walmart.
Did you order online and if so do they charge right away or after it ships (if you know)
EDIT: Doesn't matter, I went to order and soon as I pressed submit they ran out of stock...just great. The only other amiibo I wanted as of right now was the Squid in the 3-pack and also Ness. Things aren't looking good on acquiring either right now...

Splatoon 3 pack has been up a few times at a couple different places. I don't think it's going to be that hard to come by in all honesty.

You would think but then again I thought certain amiibo would also be easy to find and I was wrong on most of those occasions. Let's hope that you're correct though, I would really like to get those amiibos so I can utilize them in the game(s) they correspond to.

When is "Never" a good response to a yes or no question?
MY JOKE
I'm confused! Which one of you is the real Dig?!
Having spoken to a rep, they said it is but you should call your local store in case they aren't doing it.
I plan to head out to one but like Rosie and Toad, on a whim. Worked well for them.

Is the Greninja thing tomorrow Web-in store like Ness was?
Wait! I thought the Greninja was for the 27?
I'm not sure how that stops them adhering to their allocated stock. Anyway I'm all set now. Got my first Ness and second is with the courier, but it probably won't come til Tuesday cos of ANZAC Day observed.
Was surprised to see two Ness and a Robin on the shelf in JB Hifi Queen St. Lol at one already listed on TradeMe for $100...
Yah! I got confused there for a minute. So it's Monday for sure?

Don't think TRU has "web-in store". Their in store preorders you do have to put a dollar down for though I believe.
