Those flew at target and tru, picked up extras myself.

 

[dallow_bg]

Tiger Direct canceled my Lucina. not reliable at all

They always cancel.

 

[scoot3r]

 

[Muzy72]

Missed Charizard.

 

[SmackAttack]

A whole lot of luck really.

Spoiler

And the Duck Hunt amiibo is going to be glorious.

Spoiler

And exclusive to Cabela's

Not sure if posted, but any MichiGAF members, seems Ann Arbor & Brighton have got some more Meta Knights in.

Shame I don't live near either of those places....

MichiGAF (is that what we call it? Nice) member here. Ann Arbor is about 45 minutes away from me. Is it worth it? Eh, I leave it.

 

[Fourth Storm]

Lucina was just up on Walmart.com for like 3 seconds.

Sorry to those who are getting their Tiger Direct Lucinas cancelled. I'm checking my email every 30 seconds.

 

[Wanderer5]

Oh time to get ready.

 

[Flame_AC]

Inkling Boy is up right at 6:01

 

[scoot3r]

Yeah I suck at linking images lol

 

[HardRojo]

Thus my story of amiibo vengeance ends, I have prevailed against the scalper that bought the last 6 at launch for his "nieces and nephews".

Lucky! I want an MK so bad!

 

[alf717]

yeah the reason why I asked is cause(I already have Charizard) but when I clicked on the link and went to buying options, when everyone was saying it was up I wasnt seeing it that way

I had this issue with Pac-Man. Keep hitting F5 and when you see the Amazon link grab it. I was so excited that when I refreshed again even when Amazon link was live I lost the link so if it isn't there just keep refreshing.

 

[thekonamicode]

My Tiger Direct Lucina order was just cancelled. Cest le vie!

 

[kierwynn]

Finally TRU shipped my greninja! That's everything- Best Buy order is supposed to be here today but it's 5 already so... lol

 

[lumber]

Tiger Direct canceled my Lucina. not reliable at all

Canceled mine as well. At least they are efficient about cancellations.

 

[Labrys]

Inkling Boy is up right at 6:01

did it
did it sell out already

 

[ash321]

Inkling is up, boys.
And, ...... We out.
And up again.

 

[Yarbskoo]

My Lucina just got canceled, but I can't say I'm surprised. Help me amazon, you're my only hope.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Holy shit, looks like Lucina took about 50 seconds. Damn.

 

[LiK]

can i haz a Ness

 

[xKilltheMx]

ink boy is up.

Guess that 5 minutes thing is wrong and its truly random. Fuck.

 

[Busaiku]

Holy shit, looks like Lucina took about 50 seconds. Damn.

Didn't go up.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Good luck folks waiting on Amazon.

 

[nikos]

So I was walking through the Wii U aisle at Best Buy and there was a Nintendo rep hanging out. He saw me checking out the amiibo and told me another location had four Meta Knights sitting on the shelf. Ran to that Best Buy and there were two left, so I scooped them up. Looks like they're sort of rare.

Now I'm looking at other amiibo again. Really want Wario, is it supposed to be rare? I know Amazon is supposed to put it up in about an hour. Should I jump on it? Any word of Best Buy stocking it?

 

[Zonic]

MichiGAF (is that what we call it? Nice) member here. Ann Arbor is about 45 minutes away from me. Is it worth it? Eh, I leave it.

Figured "Eehh, MichiGAN, MichiGAF, close enough".

But yeah, both of those locations are about 2 hours away from me. & it sucks he STILL hasn't been put back online.

Time to wait 30 minutes to HOPEFULLY get Lucina. Got $25 in Amazon credit thankfully.

 

[Wanderer5]

Gotcha you Inkling Boy. I can wait for him next Thursday.

 

[Marty Chinn]

Inkling is up, boys.
And, ...... We out.

It shows up on the list of sellers, but not on the main page. Even on the side bar you can see it's an option. Weird.

 

[HiroTSK5]

Holy shit, looks like Lucina took about 50 seconds. Damn.

It doesn't go up for another 30 minutes, didn't stop me from getting scared though.

 

[Velcro Fly]

So how long did the first two last? I know Charizard was out relatively quickly

It's fucking insane when these last 10 minutes and we gain confidence in Amazon's supply.

 

[LiK]

if Amazon does this for every wave afterwards, i'll be happy cuz we're able to actually order without too much stress.

Pac never sold out. Charizard sold out a few min before the deadline.

 

[Chucker]

RE: MK restock, remember they said they were going to do them in the evening. They were at the front desk as well.
Good luck!

At 5:30 Eastern TRU had lots of splatoon, lots of Pac, one Wario, one Silver.
Best Buy had lots of splatoon, 4 Silver, 5 Charizard, 4 Wario, 4 Pac, 2 MK.

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Guess I'll be checking Best Buy after work tomorrow, but it'll likely be too late. Lejeune area Amiibo hunters are crazy.

 

[Toki767]

Finally TRU shipped my greninja! That's everything- Best Buy order is supposed to be here today but it's 5 already so... lol

Bah. I'm always last for getting my orders shipped.

 

[shandy706]

I've not seen inkling boy change from a 3rd party seller yet. Been that $23.16 since before 6ET.



I have a Jigglypuff to trade if I miss out on something(s). FYI for anyone interested.

 

[ctfg23]

The Amazon listing is showing up more reliably for me in the "All" tab instead of the "New" tab in the list of sellers.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Inkling Boy is most definitely up and still up

 

[K.Sabot]

tfw your splatoon 3 pack disappears from your cart.

 

[Lakerchick4life]

yeah Im just afraid by the time I see the link it will be gone..apparently Lucina was on walmart.com but I had left the room and its gone

 

[alf717]

Not just that but they haven't blow up either. This is a step in the right direction when it comes to this stuff. Thanks Amazon! If anyone from there even visits GAF. =D

 

[Boogiepop]

Got a Tiger Direct cancellation as well. There goes my safety net. Come on, Amazon!

 

[Zonic]

So if I order Lucina & then Robin, Amazon would combine these order, right? Or at the very least, I could go onto my account & request they ship together to cut down on shipping?

 

[shandy706]

Ah, he's not showing up on the main page. You have to click on "new from $12.99.

MK is just in-store restock or is there a chance they might hop online?

 

[Lookie401]

Anybody get a FedEx shipping notice from a company called Solution2Go? Says they serve all major retailers. Only thing I'm expecting being deliver are amiibo but Walmart, Target and Toys R Us already send shipping notice with tracking. Am I getting something special?

 

[iShouldGoPro]

It should be going up on Target sometime before the day is over. What do you have to trade though?

I only have Lucina, Robin, Charizard, PacMan and Wario

And how do you know target is posting it today?

 

[//ARCANUM]

Ah, he's not showing up on the main page. You have to click on "new from $12.99.

you've gotta do this on all of them fyi.

Well I like it. I like seeing others from here on GAF. If I was still out looking, I'd probably go ahead but I've been out for a while and I'm home now relaxing and waiting for Amazon. I missed Meta Knight when he first came out and never saw him either since. Wish he went back up online. I really wanted a Robin and Lucina today but at least there is one last hope.

 

[NateDrake]

It's Walmart.

 

[Animekatt]

My Lucina just arrived from Best Buy. They packaged her so well! I'm very pleased and will be buying amiibos online with them again. As for Robin and Pacman, they were also supposed to be in today, but for whatever reason they haven't been picked up by UPS to be shipped. They just have the shipping labels made.

 

[PurpleSquid]

I really like how amazon is doing this. if the next wave is limited as well i hope they do it like this or do it similar to this but with the pre orders instead of release date.
