Amiibo Wanted/Trade Thread

[saviourgundam]

Has anyone spotted Pit yet in a store? There are a few on Ebay, but not enough to suggest they're out there all over the place yet.

From what I understand, Pit, Capt. Falcon and Luigi got really late shipping, supposedly they'll be available around Dec 30th

I've seen a ton of Luigis since earlier this week, and I grabbed a Captain Falcon last night at Target. Pit is the only one that I cannot find anywhere.

No store nearby have anything, but you should try it out yourself.
Someone on a different forum posted this to check Targets Inventory.

Gamestop's website has Diddy Kong and Captain Falcon available for buy

EDIT: It will not let me add Captain Falcon to my cart, I made it as far as checkout and removed itself

I wonder if that means my Captain Falcon preorder is available for pick up.

[saviourgundam]

yeah, I just refreshed it and it's already out of stock again

[bobster]

That sucks lol. I'm just glad Toys R Us reinstated my preorders or else I'd be so tired of all this lol

Wasn't that a delightful email to get 

[heavengeance]

Wish it went that smoothly for me, everything except Lucario was reinstated, just gave up and cancelled everything and went in store today and got 2 preorders. Plus dropped by GameStop got King Dedede preordered and bought a Luigi since who knows when the rest of wave 2 will ship from Amazon. Now to wait for Wave 4 preorders.

Gamestop's got Pit in, good luck finding one without a name on it though.

[soera]

I got mine today.

[saviourgundam]

Captain Falcon is back in stock on Gamestop if people still need one, Shulk is no longer available for preorder

Man, all this amiibo stuff is crazy. xD I kinda want to buy one, but I'm not really into Nintendo, and I'm afraid I might be tempted into buying more. xD

(Unless I happened to come across a FE one, of course.)

In case it helps, my local stores had a link figure, a Mario one, DK, Kirby, Peach, Daisy, Pikachu... and I think that was pretty much it. In case anyone is looking for any of those. xD

Good luck with your searches/pre-orders! I feel terrible for your wallets. ;P

EDIT: Link is no longer available, and those were Zelda figures, not Daisy... whoops. xD No Mario either.

Aaand I bought Samus. Dx I wanted to buy a few more, but Hastings puts those freaking huge stickers right over the box art. >~<

Yeah if you jump in late into the amiibo craze, you're probably going to have to rely on getting imports or paying the inflated price on the rare ones. All those you mentioned are pretty easy to find. Some are getting uncommon but I doubt those will be fetching too high of prices any time soon.

Also, I might have an extra Pit coming since, I reordered one at Toys R Us to save a few dollars, hoping it was going to ship before my Amazon one so I could cancel but, they're preparing to ship that one. So if Toys R Us pulls through, I'll probably have an extra if anyone is interested, $14USD + whatever shipping is going to cost me. I'm open to trades but, I pretty much have everything besides Pikachu & a Rosalina preorder.

I don't plan on getting into it... at least, not to THAT extent. I might pick some up on occasion, but (at least right now) I don't particularly want to collect every single one.

Then again, I didn't plan to even buy one lol. 9.9;
