Little Mac and Captain Falcon are really hard to find. Villager was too.

Marth was a bit more common than the US, but still rare.


Since Christmas, lots of them have been hard to find. Only common ones like Mario, Peach and DK are about right now.

Anyone lucky enough to snag a NA Rosalina from Target? She's the only figure from Wave 3 that I'm losing hope for.

I've got two on order from Japanese retailers off of eBay, one for myself and one for my step daughter. The amount of pre-seller scalping that is going on with Rosalina is f'ing nuts! Even then, I still got taken for a ride with the Japanese pre-sellers.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I've bought all of mine for 1490 jpy ($13) off of nin-nin-game.com. They've upped the price on some of them, ie, Villager is now $35 and Rosaline is $18, but most are still $13.

Huh, I wonder why Villager is so much more than the others? Captain Falcon isn't stupidly expensive there though, so thanks for the link!

Ugh, what a terrible time to hop on the Amiibo wagon. :roll:

SO are all the pre orders sold out for wave 3 exclusives in store? I take it that it's too late to go to TRU/BB/GS and pre order the exclusives?

If these werent relatively limited, I really wonder how well they'd actually be selling. I didn't know they worked for other games other than smash, which is why i'm pretty interested in picking some of these up.

I pre ordered Wave 3, excluding the exclusives and will probably pick up my favorites from the previous waves over time. I'm interested in the overall quality of the figures and how good they look to display (I'll look up some detailed photos).

Thanks for sharing that dude. Tempted to pick up what exclusives I can from there but the shipping kind of kills it for me.

In terms of online order, they're all accounted for. However, I think GameStop is the only place that actually eats up all stock to fulfill pre-orders.

It's possible if you go in day 1 to Best Buy, Toys R Us, or Target you could probably find a couple of them.

At least that's what I'm hoping.
