Charizard, Silver Mario, and Pac-Man up at TRU!

Ans so it begins

 

[Masmajora]

Chapters has all of wave 4 up, except for lucina.

Click Here.

I think it only works on desktop, simply click on quick view, and you can add to cart from there. Not sure if its phantom stock, but I got an order confirmation for a robin. So there is a chance chapters will cancel it all.

 

[lionpants]

I play it safe this time and arrive 2 hours early at TRU. There are already 30ish people in line... Holy shit.

Wow...

I only want greninja so I hope that I'll be fine by being there an hour early...

 

[espher]

Well I was going to try to get to Walmart this morning on my break for the ones I'm missing, but it seems Jigglypuff is the only one of those they carry in store... weird.

Hoping for a reprint on Ness/Lucina/Robin, I guess.

Jiggs up on walmart

 

[Kade]

Jigglypuff is in limited stock on the Wal-Mart Canada website. Managed to get one but it may or may not be a backorder like the Lucina was for me.

EDIT: Lucina is in stock http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/lucina-amiibo/6000192949774

EDIT2: Sold out.

 

[ReddishGUI]

Snagged one.

 

[Zing]

Not that anyone buys the individual Amiibo, but the inkling girl and boy are in stock online at Walmart.

 

[Draysoth]

30 in line in Stoney creek. Old guy cleared out neighbouring Walmart at opening. Fun fun.

They don't have a 1 per person policy?

 

[March of the Crabs]

Made sure my work implemented a 1 per customer policy. Walked in and got Jiggly and Splatoon 3 Pack with no issue. Silver Mario, Wario and Charizard are waiting in the mail at home. Successful morning!

 

[Sakura Mazaki]

Around 20 in line at my local tru

Edit: 20 not 200 lol

200 would be: abandon all hope =s

 

[espher]

Just noticed Gold Mario was apparently in stock on Walmart's site... got that (to get my 2nd), and then added three random extras (Inklings + Silver) for the free shipping that I will have to return haha.

Unfortunately missed out on Lucina/Puff.

Edit: Maybe I should keep that Silver as trade bait... hmm...

 

[i-Jest]

Planned on leaving at 7am. I woke up an hour late and left at 8. It's now 9:05 and I'm at TRU Younge and Eglinton. This line is LONG as fuck. FAAAAACCKKKKK!

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

*siiiiigh* Still waiting on my Best Buy orders to be chargef.

 

[Kilvin]

Unless Chapters fucked up again and cancels all the orders.

This is true, but I'm not buying multiple figures "just in case", so I'll take my chances.

 

[DangerMan]

Will EB Games be carrying the Splatoon Amiibo 3-pack in Canada? Not listed on their site

 

[Bass260]

Anyone else at the Yonge and eg TRU? The line is so long. Solid 40 people.

 

[Sealtest]

I always thought platinum was only earned for spending the $14.99 yearly and that after gold it was onyx or whatever

 

[MikeDip]

Is stuff still going up on TRU online or is that over already for today?

 

[The Elite]

$14.99 or 5000pts.

They were selling it when they went up for order. EB tends to take stuff down when they go out of stock and don't think they are getting more in. If they get more stock they will put it back up.

 

[i-Jest]

Yes. It's probably sold out online hense why you can't find it. The page was taken down.

 

[ReddishGUI]

Just got greninja

I am. For my sake, and everyone elses, I hope they have a shit ton in stock. I mean like 50+.

 

[March of the Crabs]

Got Greninja easily. Toys R Us had a metric fuckton.

 

[Sniffynose]

Wtf is with bestbuy?!! Still no charge for my robin/lucina/silver mario....

Doesn't work, probably sold out for real or fixed then.

 

[Zing]

Microplay Newmarket opened early. Got my game and three-pack. They had everything but Robin/Lucina.

 

[LeGourmand]

But I doubt they have enough for me to go grab one after work.

[Enilced2]

Was like a feeding frenzy at the west Edmonton Walmart this morning. I managed to snag the boy and girl Splatoon amiibos but those three packs and all the new ones disappeared fast. No one per customer rule enforced at all.

 

[AnkiRendan]

Are Splatoon Amiibos 3 pack only? I only want the boy :/

 

[March of the Crabs]

They were putting some on the shelf after I wandered in so it's possible! I'm just glad I switched my 8AM electronics shift at my work (Walmart) so I could be buying Amiibos instead of putting them out!

They're available individually but I bet they're scarce.

Yeah it's a shame that the 1 per customer thing wasn't a company wide policy. It's done on a store by store basis and while I made sure my work implemented one because I understand the craze, employees at other locations sadly don't get it/don't care.

Only the squid is 3pack only

Anyone know? I want to know if I can take a nap or not I've been up for like 2 hours this morning and I am tired and it's nap time.

No idea
I've been refreshing the page since I woke up. Someone mentioned 10am. Must be EST

Yea the lady this morning opened up the cages and pretty much flat out said "take whatever you want, once they are gone I don't have to be bothered about them"

 

[Sealtest]

was around 10am est when Lucario went up but he never went up mistakenly the day before so who honestly knows anymore.

That's a bummer. I know my work and a few others just kept them in the shipping box and handed out 1 of whoever to people who came in. No point putting them on the shelf when everyone is gonna grab and hoard them. Wish they all handled it like that !

 

[Zing]

The quality on these new Amiibo isn't even close to wave 1/2. My Charizard and Splatoon figures look like much cheaper plastic. The seams are huge and obvious. What you don't see in photos is that inkling girl has a gigantic seam right across her head.

If the reprints are anything like this, collectors of the first wave have no fear of devaluation.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

If I go to EB during my lunch break, any chance I'll get a Ness? (lol...)

Why would they do that when people can just walk out with them
