Amiibo!!
Re: Amiibo!!
G&W will be a cool one to have but I think my most wanted is ROB. He is also the only one that will have regional differences I imagine. I'll definitely have to secure a Famicom colored ROB.

Re: Amiibo!!
I'm wondering if Nintendo's idea of resupply will be figures with the same sculpts using alternate costumes.
Considering these things produced about $31.18M in revenue in 5½ weeks, I wouldn't be surprised.

Re: Amiibo!!
I got three separate emails today saying that three of my pre-orders are going to be pushed back due to delayed release dates. Delayed, not cancelled (thank goodness... I hope...) It says Sheik and Bowser have been pushed back to the 6th and Mega Man to the 20th.
I don't know if that means that there's going to be a delay in all pre-orders, or just from that store, or what have you. Just thought I'd mention it since Wave 2 ended up getting split up without any prior warning.
Fingers crossed nothing gets cancelled on me. Bowser I can live with, and I'd be bummed to have to track down Sheik, but I'll be pissed if I lose Mega Man.

Re: Amiibo!!
Just like in the previous set of figures, they gave a broad release date and then peppered the real release throughout that time period. You should be okay, so no worries!Michi wrote:I got three separate emails today saying that three of my pre-orders are going to be pushed back due to delayed release dates.

Re: Amiibo!!
Yeah, that's what I figured. I pre-ordered the one's I wanted well before Christmas, so I should be good. Just wanted to give anyone who would be looking for them in store a heads up with some possible delaysBogusMeatFactory wrote:Just like in the previous set of figures, they gave a broad release date and then peppered the real release throughout that time period.

Assuming they can find them at all, if history is any indication...
EDIT: Just got another email. Ike's been moved back to the 20th as well

It's good to see you are back! Toktogul is awesome to deal with, he hooked me up with some great Saturn imports for great prices.Toktogul wrote:if you havent been able to pre order your amiibos, i am currently offering an alternative. you can find more informations in the sale section. not making profit out of it, simply trying to help the community save a few bucks and do something to kill the scalpers ruining our hobby
I might have to take you up on your offer for the amiibos as I wasn't able to preorder all of the Wave 3 figures. I don't really feel like hunting them down either so I will pay a little more for the convenience.

I can only hope they "resupply" figures from Wave 1 and 2, so they can water down the current supply and people who paid inflated prices feel dumb.Cronozilla wrote:I'm wondering if Nintendo's idea of resupply will be figures with the same sculpts using alternate costumes.

Re: Amiibo!!
I don't know about America, but quite a lot of shops I've bought my Amiibo from have been out of stock one week and have new stock a few weeks later. I'm pretty sure they're all still being supplied right now and that this rumour about print runs ending isn't true.Hazerd wrote:I can only hope they "resupply" figures from Wave 1 and 2, so they can water down the current supply and people who paid inflated prices feel dumb.Cronozilla wrote:I'm wondering if Nintendo's idea of resupply will be figures with the same sculpts using alternate costumes.

I've managed to pick up 4 Marths, 2 villagers and 2 Wii Fit Trainers so far (before anyone mentions, they've been for friends or the charity auction, I haven't resold any). I can see a shop online right now where Pit, Wii Fit Trainer and C.Falcon are in stock (p. sure it's UK only, sorry US dudes). They weren't yesterday.
The only one I've never found reappear in stock is Little Mac, but it's only been a month since release, I have confidence hell reappear soon.

Re: Amiibo!!
They're confirmed resupplying at least one figure, Marth. But that's because it'll be usable in an upcoming game.Hazerd wrote:I can only hope they "resupply" figures from Wave 1 and 2, so they can water down the current supply and people who paid inflated prices feel dumb.Cronozilla wrote:I'm wondering if Nintendo's idea of resupply will be figures with the same sculpts using alternate costumes.
