I have Peach, Kirby, and Zelda. Still looking for my babies (Shulk and Little Mac). But I preordered Robin and Lucina, definitely not taking any more chances. You just gotta be quick. I also preordered the Peach from the Super Mario collection, too. You can never have too much Peach.

Where is everyone preordering the Wave 4 amiibos?
Or they sold out all they were allowed to allow for preorders D: Which.... means Toon Link is already gone and will never be seen in stores.

Gamestop didn't stop doing preorders for everything.
We just no longer accept preorders for things like amiibos or skylanders because some of them only come in limited quantities.
Compared to a game which comes in boxes of as many as we want/need.
Pre orders don't make businesses any more money because you're still paying the same as anyone else.
So they found it pointless to let people preorder things that cost 15$. So people now have to just come in and ask if we have them. If we don't. They may or may not come in the next batch.

I've currently got Princess Zelda, Link, Pikachu and Samus. Constantly stalking my Target for the Rosalina and Toon Link drop.
If you'd rather pay $13-ish bucks for a cheap little collectible that can do some stuff in some video games, then yeah. Otherwise I wouldn't bother with them too much.
Just saying though, you're a fool to say "woohoo 3DS faceplates!" but crap all over amiibo, I mean really do the faceplates do anything wow. At least Amiibo unlocks things.

I went to this huge, almost flea market type place called Frank n Sons, and I saw so many Zelda & Diddy Kong amiibo being sold for $20 in there. Didn't seem horribly unfair and most vendors only had 1 or 2 of each. But I thought it was really odd that there was a lot of Yoshis being sold for $20 as well. Who the heck can't find that one!?
Saw a Luigi and Cpt Falcon as well but for a tiny bit more. How strange.

For me, they are. I pay $8 a piece for little NASCAR diecasts (little scaled models of the cars) and here I'm just paying $5 more a piece and they pretty much add a whole mode in Smash Bros. The figures look nice too, could be better but not bad.

I probably wouldn't buy them if I didn't get a 25% discount on them. XD
They're cute but 13$ seems a lot for a small figure.
I thought getting two of mine at ?10.85 ($16.40) each was a steal!
Most places sell them at ?13-15 ($20-23) here.

Wow! That's a ton. D;
Yeah where I live (not sure if it changes depending on state or anything) they're 12.99$
But I get an employee discount at GameStop. Xp
Otherwise I probably wouldn't own all of what I own. The only thing we don't get discounts on are brand new systems. I'm still paying the 199.99$ for the new XL. I already put 100$ on it haha.
I'm excited to actually be able to use my amiibos rather than stare at them.
