Rosalina FS pre-order update.

I placed my order pretty quickly when they went up at 4 in the morning last week, but I still hadn't received a shipping notification, so I decided to call.

The CS agent said the item as backordered and that I was on a list for when they receive their next shipment. Oh boy. Is that a bad sign??

from what we have surmised, pretty much everyone in Eastern Canada have theirs as "Backordered" for whatever reason (you can draw your own conclusions)

that CS response just seems like a generic answer so I wouldn't take it to heart

edit: should have refreshed, oh well

*spends all night on ToysRUs website waiting for Lucario to go on sale*

*Goes to Winnipeg days later only to find 3 sitting on the shelf at ToyRUs on Regent Ave.*

YeP!

Well seeing as I can't freely move about at the moment to go to the store I'd be pretty happy to see one on the shelf next time I'm finally able to get to the local one.

Nice find.

I think we all severely underestimated how available Lucario will be.

Not available in québec for sure

So how long do I have to suck you off for to get a Lucario shipped to Toronto

 

[isny]

Status update: My Lucario from TRU showed up today.

 

[Weiss]

I think some people here have found Lucarios in Toronto. If not, I'd be willing to trade one of mine.

 

[Haines]

Any new amiibo hit lately. What stores are good to check in store.

I'll trade you a Lucario. Looking for Ike, MM, Sonic, or Meta Knight.

I have nothing to trade. I actually open my amiibo's and use them and I'm building a custom shelf for them lol.

Lucario seems to be showing everywhere that isn't less then a 20 minute drive from toronto.

 

[i-Jest]

A Rosalina just popped for order on Futureshop.ca! Gone now... But what does it mean?! Would it do that if someone simply cancelled their order?

I know it was momentary today but I can't believe I missed the Rosalina order at FS AGAIN.

EB games started getting some more Wave 3. Plenty of Shiek to go around, but little luck on Mega Man and Sonic.

Is dedede popular? A local store is showing stock of shiek and him.

Lucario is in all stores? Not store exclusive?

 

[jholmes]

That's what they say. He looks faboo in person to boot.

 

[Kilvin]

Sheik is basically the Diddy Kong of this wave.

DeDeDe and Ike are probably going to be pretty tough to find later on. I'd say nab him when you can. Shiek will be easier to find.

Lucario is exclusive to Toys R Us.

 

[RaidenXZ]

So any news on the Walmart stock today? Cause I only see Kirby, Peach and Luigi on the shelf. Pretty sad really

 

[ohlawd]

good

now I just need all retailers in BC to get their shit together before I push their shit in for them

 

[Conscience Falls]

Sheik and Toon Link 20-30 of them here.

 

[Mysterious]

So for stuff like Pit, Little Mac, Captain Falcon (I read these in the announcers voice, heh), am I SOL?

What's the cheapest way to get them? Any chance of a reprint?

 

[RaidenXZ]

This store in Vaughan has shit all then. Should I ask staff? Is it worth it? Cause I see only Peach, Luigi and Kirby :/

I'd call and ask! They just got these in today the girl told my girlfriend when she went!

 

[senorbivins]

Walmart came through, got lucky and got there right when they got stocked, picked up these (which was all of them) and there was a ton of shiek and some toon link. No Mega Man or Sonic though :/ Hopefully Amazon will come through, mega man needs to get a delivery estimate.

Ah super lucky! I want an Ike so bad. Which Walmart was this btw?

Its a small city so im not so inclined to say the name, but lets say its like an hour from toronto

 

[RaidenXZ]

Lol CSR won't check back or boxes for me. She said that's all they have for Amiibos. So Kirby, Peach and Luigi. The shenanigans going on here. So much for ever seeing a rare one in person lol

 

[MikeDip]

That's an hour away from me then, too far. Either way, congrats!

 

[Mysterious]

Yonge and Dundas and Georgetown EB Games have awesome employees. Commerce Court employees aren't as nice.

Don't see a reprint coming for these ones anytime soon. Maybe at the end of Smash series Amiibo. Nintendo's rumored to be looking into the shortage issue. I'd say import from Super UFO or Nippon Yasan if available.

Common. Don't tease a young man. Do they have anymore Rosalina? Also, congrats on that jealous worthy haul.

Seeing how Little Mac is 90$ and Pit is 68$ on Nippon-Yassan, I would say "avoid".

 

[mdubs]

So my haul for today is Luigi, Kirby and Lucario from my Toysrus order and my two Foxes from the store. Good day!

Also the real question is when is 10k going to ask out this girl.

While she seems to like him (you don't go out of your way in that fashion for someone unless there's something more) he's unfortunately (for her) not single.

 

[Haines]

Yeah. Wait for reprints or just live with out owning them.

I don't even preorder just to save myself the craziness of needing to own every one.

 

[i-Jest]

Oh wow. Prices went up? Fuck Nippon Yasan then.

 

[Fularu]

Well they would be prety stupid not to. People were buying from them to resell, may as well be the reseller themselves

 

[senorbivins]

This was all they had other then toon link & Sheik. So im guessing smaller town walmarts are getting one Rosalina.

So I just stumbled upon the Charizard Amiibo order page on the Videogame Plus website but he's sold out I think https://www.videogamesplus.ca/product_info.php?products_id=22660

Here's the page for the others in wave 4: https://www.videogamesplus.ca/pre-orders-wii-c-370_633.html

On second thought, maybe they're not sold out, maybe preorders haven't gone live yet (wishful thinking).

Hope that means that they'll go up on Amazon soon.

They've been there since the direct afaik. They never went live

 

[evanmisha]

Had 3 more Purolator shipments 'fail delivery' today after seeing the Purolator truck deliver a package to the church directly in front of my house. Called to complain and apparently the driver listed every package on my street as 'location inaccessible' despite our street being plowed.

...and it seems like instead of bringing them to the depot 10 minutes from my house, they brought them to a depot in the next town over.

 

[mdubs]

This is correct, they have been up and out of stock since they were announced, nothing to see here folks.

 

[senorbivins]

Guess I better start buying some stands for these, anyone else running out of room for all their amiibo's?

 

[Darkspineslayer]

So, this was my day today...

And, the whole family...

 

[meitantei_conan]

Guess I better start buying some stands for these, anyone else running out of room for all their amiibo's?

I ran out of space on my amiibo shelf and only have room for 2 more on top of my game cabinet. I keep them in their boxes though so that could be part of the problem....The struggle is real.

I originally had mine with all my other figures but after all the time ive invested in finding the things I decided they had to be more prominently displayed haha

 

[GtwoK]

Damn. I love seeing the insane amount of work Nintendo put into some of these. Phone pic, but:

Sheik has such an amazing texture to each of the different fabrics of her outfit. That and she even has her other eye behind her hair. Like damn.

Only disappointing thing with Sheik is for whatever reason her bandages on all the ones I've seen are brown in colour, when in the artwork their very blatantly grey. What's up with that

 

[terrible]

As cool as that amiibo collection is all I can see is that Gretzky rookie card.
