Ugh, Brickseek is telling me that my closest Target has 12 Jigglys on hand with 11 "saleable". Wonder if an employee is holding one for themselves. The second one has 16, all saleable.

I wonder if I'd be able to go buy one today, lol.

I'm hoping they need to be "processed" into the system somehow to be saleable.

Back in my retail days I know we had to set a certain amount of product aside for exchanges. That doesnt really apply to amiibo so I would think they should all be sold.

Either way its concerning because tons of Targets around me show 4 each of Lucina and Robin but only 2 saleable for each.

I've already got Lucina, Robin and Ness via "other methods"
(trades and ebay...)
so I'm going for Jiggly, Wario, Charizard, Pacman, Silver Mario, and Splatoon 3 pack over at Target since they open 2 hours before TRU.

Then I'm off, down the street to TRU, for Greninja. My only hope is that the line isn't so long that I cannot get one. All the fun begins at 3AM.

No! :-( Hopefully it's not too terrible. I'm going out to search for Charizard and Wario for my sister. I bought her first amiibo the other day and now she's hooked.

Edit: Don't mind the rain, just hate driving in it, like that snowstorm for Rosalina. T_T

Every single Target in my area has one less Puff sellable than available, except for one. Hmm. Seems to be the general trend for the rest too.

Also, my usual store is getting 32 in. Nice. In fact, it's the only store in the area getting near that many, most are getting 16 with a couple getting 24.

Oh, and does anyone have the DPCI for Silver Mario?

Uhh, so my Target doesn't have anything according to Brickseek.
Does that mean I can't get it tomorrow?
Click to expand...

Nah, you'll be fine. Most stores actually haven't gotten there shipments in, based on BrickSeek. Seems to be regional, so your region just hasn't gotten theirs in and processed yet. I'm sure they will today though.

So...


Anyone wanna chance going to Target to see if they'll let us buy these early?


My local Target seems to have only 3 Lucina, and only 7 of the Splatoon 3 pack that are "saleable". And I won't be able to go until later.


*Forget it, I called, and they told me they're streetdated, still kind of lame a major retailer like Target only has 3 Lucinas for the entire store. Guess I'm going to Toys R Us.

Thanks! I'll be near a Target, so I'm going to go there and see if I can find an extra Jiggly for someone on here, but that's the only store I'll be near.

Anybody have Walmart orders that are still stuck on Processing?

Seems like my Target has 15 Jigglys, but only 3 Robins, 3 Lucinas, and 3 Splatoon 3 packs... Looks like it's gonna be an early morning. Anyone have a guess on how early I should get there?

Just checked brickseek for my Target, they have 16 Jigglys, 8 silver Marios, and 4 of everything else EXCEPT there is no Robin and Lucina.

Dangit. This is gonna be the first wave where I'll have to pay eBay prices. I've missed all the preorders for Robin/Lucina.

You still have a shot at amazon when it goes up, so don't quit just yet.

Yeah, I'm holding out hope for Amazon still, but I know what my chances are, lol :( I've had the worst luck with this wave, only managed to snag Jigglypuff and Ness on preorders.

I think I got there for Rosalina, at a different Target, 30 minutes early and was 4th or 5th that time.

This Target is in a less populated part of the city, so I think I'll try to get there an hour early and see how I do.

My shopping list is:

Jigglypuff (Girlfriend's Smash Main so we have to get her)
Lucina
Robin
Splatoon Three-Pack (I want that mech suit in-game, goddamit.)

I generally just buy the amiibos that I like the most, I'm far from a completionist.

So, I have a unique situation. My Jigglypuffs shipped from Target, but yesterday, for some reason I got a notification from my bank that the charge was declined... wtf do I do?

Lucario

So, I'm new to all this, but Jigglypuff and Robin are my mains, and my boyfriend wants the Splatoon 3-pack. I know I won't be able to get 'em otherwise, so I'm considering showing up early to Target tomorrow.


Does anyone know how this works? Will it be a ticket system or something, or will everyone just bumrush to the video game aisle once the store opens? Also, how early would I need to show up to have a decent chance of getting all of those? Will there be a scalper in line first who just buys all of the available stock?

Thanks!

Damn, that's close at the corner of 48th and 6th already. That is making me reconsider lining up.

I think if you can head out between now and 12 P.M. you will be safe.

They should have sizable inventory , if the last events are anything to go by.If the reps give out numbers i will update quick!
