    Reaaaaally hoping this is legit:

    So my TRU, being one of the smaller stores in our district, just got 52 Greninja in. Looking at how many Jiggly Target is getting, it looks like this round of store exclusives is going to be a bit easier to get. I'll keep an eye on the inventory for other stores just to be sure.

    I hope it's true, I kinda want a Greninja, but I'm not going to stress if he's impossible to get.

    If he's as easy as walking in and grabbing one, I'll be happy.

      Aren't they being released on the 29th? That's a bit early to get them. Would have expected the shipment to arrive next week.

        I think they came this early last wave. But also last wave stores were just selling them at totally different, random times because they didn't have an official street date in most cases (basically selling them as they got them). But like, I think TRU was the first to sell any wave 3 and I'm guessing if there was an official date, it would have been more around when Best Buy was selling stuff, a few weeks later.

        so I decided to break my $20 limit. there was a Japanese Villager on Amazon with prime shipping for $27.

        Why the hell not. It's the last wave 1 figure I needed.

        I don't think you've done anything wrong I would have done the same thing in fact, however, I do think it's funny how quickly you rationalized your purchase.

        $27 isn't that bad honestly. Though I'm assuming the reprint will eventually hit here like Marth did too (but that's also assuming you would have been able to get one and you'd want to wait that long)

        card has been charged for the splatoon 3-pack preorder; hopefully this means no funny business with canceled preorders and it'll actually show up.

        I have been hearing a lot of rumblings about possible Lucario and Dedede restocks at TRU possibly hitting on the 29th. Though I imagine stock is going to vary by location.

        I am just waiting on emails from wherever I ordered that and Pac-Man. Probably Walmart and Target. I forget where I ordered them from.

        Lucina arrived from Japan today. She looks pretty good! Teensy drop of mis-applied beige paint on her hair, but her sword is straight and her face looks good. The stand up stick doesn't look good from the back, but is pretty uninvasive from the front.

        I like how they did away with colored stands.
        if they ever redo Link, Zelda or Fox with clear stands I will snatch those up quickly.

        Looks good on Pit though.

        Yeah the Japanese restock has dropped the prices alot on Mac, Falcon, and Villager into the $25-27 range. (with Prime shipping too)

        I snagged a Villager the other day. it just showed up today and looks fantastic too, I like the new face print.

        Somewhere official looking, I remember seeing that the amiibos also unlock the minigames. And like, one minigame each. And then I felt a ting of annoyment because I wasn't terribly plussed by the jump one that's in the demo, but really dug the DDR rhythm game that was shown in the Direct. Which is probably naturally going to be one of the unlockable.
