    I think Game & Watch and Bowser Jr are the only Amiibo left from Smash that I want.

    After that, I need K.K. Slider, Isabelle, and Nook.

    And then I can retire!
    Until the next series of Amiibo comeGODDAMNIT.

    I got Robin, Lucina, Samus, Toon Link, and Mega Man.

    That's it.

    I'm done.

    I'm out.

    You say that now.

    I'm still debating whether to get Dr. Mario or not. I'm happy with just the ones I have right now (Mega Man, Toon Link, Pit, Wario, and Ness), but I sure do want more.

    The longer time goes by the less likely it becomes I'll get Lucina at retail price. Maybe there'll be a re-run eventually.

    Just want the rare ones. You'll never see them anyway.

    The problem is that, as the days pass, rare amiibo are slowly becoming less rare.

    That's because most have been rereleased in good numbers in Japan.

    Woah, Ness is at $21! That is awesome! Or would be, if I didn't already had mine :P

    I love my Ness, it's like he looks like a Pokémon trainer. Fun fact: Before I unlocked Ness in Smash 64 back in the day, I thought he was actually Ash because it was a similar shape in the blacked out intro and character slot.

  • wunderbarwunderbar What Have I Done? Registered User regular
    yea I bought a jigglypuff for $22CDN shipped to my door yesterday. Considering I've never actually seen one of those anywhere, and MSRP in Canada is now $16, that's not bad at all. About my limit on what i'll pay, but not bad at all.

    Do you have a list of amiibo that aren't supported?

    Lucina Amiibo is still stupid expensive on Amazon at least.

    While prepping some artwork for a Palutena amiibo it occurred to me that I have her and Dark Pit, but not Pit himself; that's so weird. You would think the "main" character would be easier to come by, but nope, Palutena and Dark Pit were practically cakewalks by comparison.

    Pit is easy to come by in the UK at the moment. Though I dunno how much you are willing to pay to import.

    Okay, then limit yourself to an amount above MSRP. My limit for buying amiibo is "maybe a dollar or two above, if I can get free shipping". (I'm on a prime trial now, but usually can get free shipping over $35 so that's a couple amiibo maybe something else.)

    I'm waiting until they catch up because paying $20+ to not-Nintendo for a $13 figure is not a thing I wanna do. If that means I never get an FE amiibo, well, I'll live.

    I'd offer to but getting there involved going half an hour out of my way and much side-eye from the wife as it was. Plus I've already got four of the buggers taking up space as it is.

    Heh, if my Amiibo are like Toy Story then my new Bowser Jr. will try to lord over the others in German.

    It's all but confirmed. TRU has an extra SKU for a mysterious amiibo that none of the other stores have.

    I hope pre-orders stay up longer this time. Based on how crazy available the GameStop bundle has been, maybe there is enough stock to actually keep things up for longer than a 5 second window.

    Greetings one and all,
    First off, if you didn't see it yesterday Target is getting all 3 Yarn Yoshi variants.
    Let's dig right in shall we?

    Target In Store
    amiibo                  Quantity
    8-Bit Classic Mario	~16,000
    Zero Suit Samus       	~20,500
    Ganondorf               ~16,750
    Olimar                  ~19,500
    Dr. Mario	        100,000+*
    Green Yarn Yoshi        ???
    Pink Yarn Yoshi         ???
    Blue Yarn Yoshi	        ???
    

    *Exact number withheld at request of source. A more specific number would weaken exclusive negotiations. Trust me though, it is a lot.

    Target Online
    amiibo                  Quantity

    Zero Suit Samus	        ~6,000
    Ganondorf	        ~6,000
    Olimar	                ~6,000

    Blue Yarn Yoshi	        ???
    
    Wave 4 numbers for comparison.

    That seems to me like a lot of Dr. Mario, but for some reason that seems almost paltry for the nation as a whole.

    There are about 1,500 Target stores across the US. Those numbers mean an average of about a dozen per store of each of those Amiibo.

  • SaraLunaSaraLuna Registered User regular
    that's a lot compared to the 0 or 1 Robin/Lucina and 4 Charizard/Wario most stores got in the last wave

    There's a goomba costume, a ? block costume, and even a spring costume.

    At this point I don't think it's outside the realms of possibility that there are other costumes, many not tied to amiibo.

    Yeah I don't think it's fake, but it doesn't necessarily have to be tied to an amiibo either tho :P
