Oh hey, Amazon UK apparently just shipped my Animal Crossing card album thing. Looks like it'll take to the 10th of November so I'll still be waiting a while. But I'll have a decent place to put my card set finally, which I've definitely been wanting. Here's hoping the US gets something (well, something easier to get a hold of then "some reps are apparently in Gamestops at some points distributing stuff") for series 2...

Thanks NeoGAF raffle, and Zonic.
Edit: I just opened it, it's so fluffy.

Now just wait until we get Mega Light Blue Yarn Yoshi & Mega Pink Yarn Yoshi, mwahahahahahaha.
.............I also want an amiibo of Yarn Poochi, OMG HE'S SO ADORABLE FOLLOWING YOU AROUND.
Glad that it arrived safely. Kind of weird there's nothing holding the yarn yoshi in place compared to the rest of the amiibo.

So far I've been leaving all my amiibo in their packagings but I cut open a flap from the bottom and remove the foil.
With the Yarn Yoshi though I decided to take it out since who the hell would keep something that cute and fuzzy in a box? Not I.
But I didn't want to discard the packaging so I just cut off the plastic shield so now the cardboard looks like a sort of stand. This actually works pretty well and now I'm considering doing this for all my amiibo... hmmmm
yes plz

"Today Best Buy announced that they'll be offering free shipping with no required minimum purchase sitewide from October 25th to January 2nd"
I'm gonna check & see if this counts on pre-orders for the Falco amiibo & such, will be even more handy if they restock on more amiibo.
Edit: At least amiibo are well stocked in Animal Crossing:

I saw several Chibi-Robo Amiibo bundles at Walmart yesterday - I'm guessing that one won't be rare?

How do you know it'll be a target exclusive?
I'm actually surprised at how well-stocked the Yarn Yoshi amiibos have been - the pink and blue are up on Amazon for regular price + free shipping, and I think they've been up for a while. Seems like Nintendo prepared pretty well for these.

All these amiibos back in stock and still no villager anywhere :'(
Restock is exclusive to Toys R Us.
Looks like Mac is sold out. It still says add to cart but when I try it says sold out. Pretty annoying.

i follow the Amiibo reddit religiously and Lottie is only in targets computer system and then there was this twitter post by amiibo alerts that also leads to some info suggesting it.

Wal-Mart just canceled my Lucina order. They gave me a $25 gift card to apologize. Not sure how I should feel about that....

Free money is always a win, Lucina will pop up again, just isn't the time right now. If a punch out character came back then Lucina will too. FE is more popular.

Yep, that's my hope. Lucina was one of I think three that I'm missing. So slightly disappointed I didn't narrow that down to two but $25 is way better than the usual $5 or $10.

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
Lol thanks for the $25 gift card Walmart

Source? (not that I doubt it, just curious)
They look so beautiful.
Today was the official release for it in EU so maybe it's from there?
EU doesn't have the Retro 3-pack, plus you can tell they're US boxes
Rumor is that they're releasing when Mewtwo hits.

Huh, I thought they did get the 3 pack.
CLOSED. I gave up on Ami long time ago. Never made it in time for anythong...
They got those amiibo as standalones.
In the top right of every NA amiibo is 6+ while in EU are No. #
I'm starting to think it's safe to assume that the delay in the NA release compared to EU and JP was because of amiibos.

I'm glad the stock is finally decent in the US. Ordered. Blue Yarn Yoshi from Amazon and Best Buy had a lot of former rare ones yesterday--Little Mac, Fox, Lucario, Greninja, Charizard, Shulk etc. None that I needed or wanted, but still nice to see.

My husband picked up Ganadorf and Black Pit yesterday at Best Buy. The only one left and which started all this Amiibo collecting still eludes me.... Marth. As many cute ones Nintendo has put out, I'm finished with collecting them. Unless I see Marth of course lol.
He said there were a lot of different ones there.

Are you turning this room into a store?
Um... so wait, I was just checking my order of the Animal Crossing card holder thing from Amazon.uk... and I noticed that it looks like they have the Shovel Knight amiibo up for preorder with a December 4th release? Is that legit/was that known? Not particularly concerned myself as I don't want to import, but that caught me mildly off guard.
I hadn't paid attention to it much, but I haven't heard anyone mention it. Best Buy lists it as Dec 18th though.
Its been like a store for a loooong time lol. On the opposite wall is a complete collection of MiB Transformers Masterpiece and Binaltech. And a bunch of Macross 1/48 scale stuff.

Of course right when my UK one ships
Does anyone know how many card slots the EU one is? the NA one says 112, which is above 100+the 3 bonus from the game. EU one just says "for all series 1 cards".- Status
