Has anyone bought amiibo cards yet? Who did you get?

Speaking of the amiibo cards, does anyone have a recommendation for a good card binder? I hear the cards are prone to curving and I'd like to find a nice/cute home for them :D

I have heard v3lla say she uses a card sheet in a normal binder from target/Walmart whatever the same as Pokemon cards or whatever. I thought the binder from the EU was super cute though so I'm probably going to try to import that depending on the price.

Ya, I really do like the card binder for EU was really cute too. I'll check that out as well :D
 
I have 15 Japanese cards imported with these special ones: DJ KK, Crazy Redd, Saharah, Resetti, and Timmy. (can't be bothered listing all villagers) I also got an English Crazy Redd dupe with my game. Supposedly I'll be getting some NA packs in soon, so maybe those will show up tomorrow or Thursday, not sure exactly.
 
Are they available in the United States? (Or available for purchase yet in the U.S.?)

This sounds super lame but I actually plan on taping mine to my walls as decoration. Just include a little roll of scotch tape on the back. I'm not sure if that will damage them though. But they're super cute and well designed so I'd love to display them!!

The cards in NA? They'll be available for purchase on same day as the game's release. Though you can pre-order them on Walmart atm!

Ooo I don't think that's lame at all! I wish the there was a really big poster to put on my wall too :) I just won't wanna keep peeling them off the wall when I want to scan them in hehe

Ew... yeah that would probably get annoying. Didn't even consider that. xD

Instead of a binder, I decided to put them in a pretty but small box that someone gave me a few years ago. I never found another use for it, but I think it's just right for my amiibo cards. It is lined with velvet, too. It doesn't really display them, but that doesn't matter to me because I just want a nice place to keep my villager friends. :)

I bought 5 packs and they should get to me soon(I hope haha), but I don't think I will buy anymore at the moment. As much as I want them, I don't NEED them and neither does my wallet :p

I've pre-ordered 3 packs (the max limit I was allowed), but will be trekking to 5-6 stores at minimum on Friday morning (at least 4 different retail chains) and will advise as to what limits there might be on pack purchases. Perhaps those of us questing on Friday can compare notes.

omfg reading these types of comments scare me and make me think I am never going to find any card packs lol... No offense to you at all tho I do it sometimes when I am looking for stuff too!

I'm not going to attempt to clean anywhere out and especially if stock is low. I'm expecting that they'll be limiting our purchases to a small number of packs. Wanting cards and not being able to find any at all would suck, and I sure don't want to deprive someone of their chance to get cards. My main aim is to pick up enough cards to get at least a few doubles, which I'm aiming to share with a friend in the States who doesn't have the means to buy them herself. I'm also going to be hitting shops in a few different parts of my city, so I won't be sweeping through one area like a tidal wave, cleaning up. ;)

My friend from UK is giving me the 3DS bundle so I will be getting the Amiibo Cards Collectors Album for my first collection. But I would like to know about this as well. So I have something to use for the next series
 
Hurray, I just got my "package has shipped" confirmation from Amazon! \o/
 
I love hearing about/seeing what others pull from blind bags! Who else here has bought or imported some cards?
I received my second pack today, so currently i've got redd, joan, rasher, midge, portia and phil. They're all so cute, i just love the art!

I will tell you when i get my 10 packs in the mail in about a week. It releases on october 2nd here in Europe *sigh*... I really hope that i get Kiki though and from the second series i NEED Wendy and Kitty. I will keep buying cards until i have them :0
