What a night....

Congrats!
Hope I'm lucky enough to find Lucina, Robin, Greninja, and Silver Mario

Seems all successful midnight posts on Reddit and CAG are from Meijer. I dont have that in my area. I am glad I havent seen any walmart hauls to get me out at 1230 ha

same, that chain doesn't exist here.

 

[Neverfade]

Q: Hey Walmart, ya'll get anymore of them Amiibos in the back?

[HUELEN10]

I couldn't sleep.

So glad I went to Wally World though.

 

[D-Stubbs]

Hey my Toys R Us order got shipped! Still waiting on Ness though. Cmon Gamestop...

 

[Nathan_Drake]

[Gaiaknight]

[HUELEN10]

Not what you'd call a haul by any means, but still worth it.

Now time for bed, then wakey for TRU.

 

[Shadoron]

No problem
Here's what I got.

Ike that I got on the initial run.
464W2

Ike 2
125W1

Thank you, definitely a reprint.

 

[PurpleSquid]

toys r us Greninja order is being processed. guess they haven't charged my card yet though since I just signed into my bank account and I don't see anything from Toys R Us there.

 

[Nighteater]

I just got an email for TRU telling me they are processing the order no shipped email yet.

Status: Item(s) located in stock - Dont screw me over now TRU.

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

So I just realized that I got an email from TRU for my instore Pac-Man preorder but not my Greninja...

 

[HUELEN10]

Complete opposite for me; luckily I got Pac just now.

 

[Curler]

I also just got that.

Must be UPS with those dates >_>

 

[PurpleSquid]

jesus the greninja order does say 6/8-6/11. and they have the nerve to charge so much for shipping too. screw toys r us and their bs.

 

[RootCause]

Thank you, definitely a reprint.

Glad to help.
They did a good job with the first version, so It didn't surprise me when I didn't see any changes.

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

Complete opposite for me; luckily I got Pac just now.

Did you do two separate transactions then? I paid the dollar on both on the same receipt.

 

[zulux21]

Must be UPS with those dates >_>

it will likely end up getting to me via USPS
whether it's straight USPS, UPSMI or the fedex version I can't be sure yet .
I got free shipping with the order so it doesn't matter if the order gets to me quickly. It's unlikely the amiibo trade market will dry up in 1-2 weeks thus I can wait for this wave's amiibos to get to me so I can trade for stuff like Ike, Marth and pit.

jesus the greninja order does say 6/8-6/11. and they have the nerve to charge so much for shipping too. screw toys r us and their bs.

it would indeed be poopy for the $6 shipping they were charging.

I am even more amused at the whole if you want it faster use shoprunner thing as the last time I checked toys r us didn't allow shop runner to work on video game stuff.

 

[Jeff Vader]

What time did you guys order your Greninja?

Edit: just as I posted I got a email about him and pacman! It's happening!!

Yep, 2 separate. As per clerk's advice; they told me there has been trouble in the past when doing more than one amiibo pre-order per transaction.

 

[Nathan_Drake]

This is exciting and frustrating all at the same time. It has been a while since I have been back in the Amiibo drama ha.

I need to secure a Silver Mario which I feel I can do between Target in the morning or Amazon. The rest I think I have secured online. But not Ness, that still has me upset.

If anyone has a Ness for trade I will trade you any of my Wave 4s I have (I have all Lucina Robin whatever). I need that little bastard and I have all available. I dont care I would rather have him and worry about the others later. I also have a Gold Mario in Box if needed. So yeah if anyone has Ness please PM me demands and I will surrender. ha

 

[Drago]

Yep, got that Greninja processing email too. Woop!

Hopefully he doesn't take too long to get here!

 

[starmud]

Jigglypuff will be easy in person at target. The shipment was massive. Even our low volume stores got almost double the count of Rosalina.

The others will be a blood bath. Even the high volume stores in my area only got 4 of each.

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

Motherfucker, hope that doesn't happen tomorrow. Thanks for the info.

 

[LiK]

so Jiggly is gonna be pretty common then?

 

[kirby_fox]

Wal-Mart sent my robin and Lucy out...but no word on the rest.

Odd how the only ones I've got confirmation on are the rarer ones. I'm not mad though.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Congrats :3

Thanks babe <3

I'll grab some pics of my stuff tomorrow night

 

[Nighteater]

Welp forecast shows 40% chance of rain before target opens. Jiggly will be mine.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Kenichiro Takaki had a hard time with amiibo.

 

[Diggeh]

I can't wait to wake up to 10 new pages.

 

[LiK]

Splatoon amiibos shipped for me.

 

[Curler]

I can't wait to wake up to 10 new pages.

I'll keep my phone nice and charged for the line... but I won't be able to keep up. Maybe I'll make some friends while I'm out.

 

[Chindogg]

Local Meijer only got 1 Robin and 1 Lucina.

A guy stood in line there at 9pm for them. He deserved them.

 

[Nighteater]

And it's raining, great... hope it clears up by 6

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Awesome my Greninja just shipped from Toys R Us!

Woo Hoo. Great night. Just need a Jiggly tomorrow and I'll be happy.

 

[LiK]

fuck, i'd rather just pay for the inflated prices at that rate.

 

[crmetteer]

Will any retailers have Marth tomorrow?

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Any word on how hard the Splatoon 3-Pack is going to be to find? I'm not expecting to grab one tomorrow but hopefully I can grab one within the next few weeks.

 

[Gwarf]

Considering how quickly mine was cleaned out and they still had a three pack available I think you'll be ok.

It will likely partially depend on how well splatoon sells, which early signs aren't amazing. with the waves though the summer is lighter, so that is likely in order to make sure to produce extra splatoon stuff, though I imagine it will be rare for a while. (it's hard to tell how many more they have beyond the initial shipment though)

 

[RootCause]

Will any retailers have Marth tomorrow?

Target is planning of selling it online. Not sure if they will have him in stores.

I'm having second thoughts about waking up early for this. I really don't want to go through this mess again.

 

[BurritoBushido]

3 stores in my area already have lines. Fuck this im going to bed

Thanks guys. It would really be a shame if these are hard to come by, considering they actually unlock some pretty cool in-game content.

You're scaring me

 

[Velcro Fly]

Good luck to everyone camping out and hitting up stores early tomorrow.

Hope everyone at least gets one that they really want.

 

[BurritoBushido]

You're scaring me

seriously, if youre not already in line, you've lost the battle.

You might get a pacman.

 

[ChitoCrisis]

What time did you guys wait in line at Target to buy Rosalina last time? I'm not sure what time to go to Target to buy Jigglypuff. I'm thinking I should be there at 6 am.
