So, at last...Cloud, Ryu and Bayonetta amiibos, and then I'm out for the foreseeable future

Wrong thread.

Pretty much what I am in for.

I keep seeing MewTwo in store and might bite.

 

[oreomunsta]

Corrin amiibo isn't getting any love :<

 

[zroid]

I'll get it if it's the female Corrin.......

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Amiibos are $10 at Wal-Mart for Boxing Day.

 

[Dragonslayer_023]

Amiibos are $10 at Wal-Mart for Boxing Day.

Looking forward to the NSMB series and Animal Crossing.

 

[zroid]

Falco seems to be in stock at walmart.ca still... $10 Falco yes plz

 

[Ondore]

So will Walmart ship-to-store or FlexDelivery be an option on Boxing Day? I'd be down for an amiibo for ten bucks + tax (hello, Sonic), but I think they charge $6 for shipping under $50.

you should be able to ship to post office for free still... I think

 

[i-Jest]

So now that we're approaching the end of Smash Amiibo, does anyone think a future line can rival the popularity, and drive the Amiibo brand, like Smash Amiibo? Does Pokemon have the potential?

 

[zroid]

Got my $10 Falco. Boom.

 

[The Elite]

Got myself a Mewtwo. Haven't been big into collecting lately but for $10 I can't pass it. Maybe I will grab a Ganondorf too.

 

[Ondore]

Snagged Sonic + Zero Suit Samus. The former to show support for the Sonic Twitter account, the latter in case I need it for the 2016 GOTY.

 

[Tapejara]

Amazon also has select amiibo for $10

 

[Sora_N]

Coloured Mario in stock at Amazon, WM sold out.

 

[oreomunsta]

Did Canada amiibo-GAF receive any amiibo related gifts?

I got Robin, Lucina, and Jigglypuff (shipped from Australia, no doubt), so I'm quite thankful for that :]

I got Chibi-Robo Ziplash as a gift. Also picked up Animal Crossing amiibo Festival from Amazon.

 

[Ondore]

I gave a Japanese Lucina to my roommate, but didn't get anything in particular.

 

[ohlawd]

been putting off getting Mabel so someone decided to get her for me instead

 

[oreomunsta]

No one has a good recommendation for where to get a Lucario amiibo, do they?

It's like they're suddenly disappearing off of the face of the planet, and I'm not keen on things like eBay or Kijiji :/

 

[Ondore]

So the US was putting up Shovel Knight earlier (Amazon, Best Buy). Did it pop up anywhere in Canada, or should I hold tight with the one I preordered off amazon.ca?

 

[Ondore]

Sorry for the double, but new news:
https://twitter.com/BBYC_GamersClub/status/682368346654928896

#AnimalCrossing fans! Keep an eye out early tomorrow there will be a few new #amiibo figures making an appearance online for pre-order.

https://twitter.com/BBYC_GamersClub/status/682368928195194880

@Earthworm_Joe Yes. Lucas will also be available. Thx

No time listed eh...I might not even have time to check.

 

[CRA5H]

It's up. Shovel knight and Lucas.

 

[Sora_N]

Thanks so much for the update. I got Lucas and added Kicks and AC cards for free shipping. I don't even want anymore AC amiibo though lol.

Shovel Knight Resetti Series 2 Cards Blathers Kicks Lucas

go get em

 

[zroid]

$18 for Shovel Knight? Bah

I've heard the quality is lower than other amiibo too...

Kicks looks awesome as heck

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Uuuuuuurgh. I got the "infinite loading" when trying to add an item to cart yet again. Why does this bug happen at the worst moment?! Goddamn I hate Best Buy's website.

 

[Sora_N]

He's the only one that stands out to me. The first wave was strong for AC and I got them all. I don't have interest in the wave 2 ones.

Wonder if they'll do villagers..but there's so many lol.

 

[Ondore]

Bah, Shovel Knight already sold out. Oh well, I've got an Amazon order. Got Lucas, though.

(God, I hope Project Giant Robot doesn't have a retail release.)

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Finally managed to get Lucas! Tried to get Shovel Knight for free shipping too, but for some reason they had they weird "no shipping to Québec" on this one, and by the time I managed to circumvent it it was already sold out. Oh well, at least I managed to get Lucas (...if they didn't oversell it!).

(God, I hope Project Giant Robot doesn't have a retail release.)

And I hope Project Guard won't either!

 

[c-murph]

They've actually been up since before 6am this morning...

 

[oreomunsta]

It's tempting to preorder Lucas at BB, but if Mewtwo was any sign of things to come, there will be plenty of Lucas to go around, so I can save the shipping fees by just going into a store

 

[ahdurian]

as much as I love Shovel Knight, I don't think I'm going to buy the Amiibo
I told myself I'd only buy the Smash line, and trying to stick to that =/

 

[Ondore]

So Best Buy is offering discounts on some amiibo:
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/categor...ingMoviesMusic_1Small_gaming_QL_amiibo&page=2

There's a few in there sold out everywhere, but maybe they're expecting a restock during the period? (Diddy Kong, notably)

 

[RaidenXZ]

Has there been any news for when we can preorder ryu and cloud?

 

[Ryne]

I still need that Mega Yarn Yoshi. I can't even find it on TRU website anymore.

 

[Darkspineslayer]

I know. That thing is long gone though. Not even scalpers seem to have any. I'm sitting on my hands for a reprint, hopefully far larger this time.

 

[oreomunsta]

Nothing yet. Cloud will still be a while away, since we still have Ryu's wave to get through

 

[Ondore]

I suspect sometime next month for Ryu and May for Cloud.

 

[Darkspineslayer]

interesting what shows up when you forget about an international order you made. Now I have a Ness of my own.

 

[Ondore]

Looks like Shovel Knight is delayed to next week sometime: TRU is saying it, and Walmart is only opening preorders Friday online.

Amazon has a page ready for Lucas and the rest of the 1/22 wave but nothing on them yet. EB opened preorders in store today.

Is the Animal Crossing wave as overstocked as it seems, or am I crazy?

I visited Best Buy and EB Games in the past week. Animal Crossing as far as the eye could see. It's ridiculous.

 

[Deleted member 126221]

I found a standalone japanese Duck Hunt for $19 (incl. shipping) on Amazon! I'm so glad the amiibo craziness is winding down and I can get the characters I was interested in without paying crazy prices (though I must admit I profited a bit from the madness...).

I almost completely agree with you here, but this past week I've been struggling to find a decently priced Lucario. There aren't any. He's become a unicorn all over again, and with the second restock of him already behind us, there's slim chances that I can pick him up from a local retailer.

On a different note, how prolific are the stand alone Chibi Robo amiibos? Found one after visiting a Walmart the other day, but I haven't seen them anywhere else

 

[Weiss]

Did Shovel Knight come out on Friday, or was it delayed to next?

 

[oreomunsta]

Only some EB got an extremely small quantity (1 or 2) on Friday. Everyone, including BB, is expecting in store and online shipments this week.

This is what's on the Canadian Reddit, anyway
