amiibo Official General Discussion

What Amiibo are target exclusive? Target in Canada just closed, so I really hope no Amiibo I want is Target exclusive :/

You know, part of me is actually wondering if we're flipping out and that the pre-orders are going to continue variably throughout the month of April. It seems like a long-shot, but I find it kind of strange that Toys 'R Us put up Greninja on their site early this morning and yet they've come out and said that pre-orders in-store will not take place until April 27th. That's nearly a month's time between them.

Maybe hope is not lost yet, folks.

I'm just kind of watching as much as I can and going with it. Not worth it to get stressed over imo.

But honestly with how close to nonexistent Nintendo and retailers has been with proper communication, along with how previous releases have gone, I don't think people's worries are misguided in the least bit.


Also, I got Greninja to checkout earlier all the way up to the confirm order page. But when I pressed the button, the site just took me to an empty cart. So that was fun.

Why do all the good amiibo have to be store exclusive, ugh
Jigglypuff I will get you ~

Aren't u Australian tho? No amiibo here are store exclusive, unless you're planning on importing

I'm not even Canadian but even I know they're not target exclusive in canada. They tried this with Rosalina but then target went to **** and she became available everywhere

UGUGHGH WHY JIGGLYPUFF

Well, I can always buy a regular JIGGLYPUFF figure and just pretend it's an Amiibo xD

Or I can pay ridiculous prices on eBay, which I'm not going to do.

*Faints because I wanted Robin and Lucina soooo bad.*
Glad the Splatoon ones look nice, but why just black bases? At least there's some ink splattered on the base to give them color.

Also the Inkling boy just rubs me the wrong way. He just looks so... messed up in some way.

wat u say m8

(ist wierd tho coz his clothes look good ut wtf his face)

 

[Heyden]

Was also surprised to find Donkey Kong, Zelda, Peach, Kirby and Luigi at Target today, excluding Mario and Pikachu.. At least Nintendo is fixing the problem here, slightly :/

 

[Zane]

I think the Ness looks cute! I haven't even played Earthbound or Mother or w/e his game is called and I kinda want his amiibo. lol Same with Robin.
Those yarn Yoshis are perfection though.

zelda got a random restock last week but i didnt know about luigi

 

[Mioki]

Ness doesn't look TOO bad, but I expected him to look more decent seeing as he's not as complex as the other characters.

I still wonder why they have a hard time with certain faces (like the Fire Emblem chars)... Then with Pit, Link, and others they look pretty sharp. I'm worried about Zero Suit...

 

[Amissapanda]

I'm perfectly happy with how Ness looks. He's true to character.

Have you ever seen the only other merchandise of him that was ever available? The amiibo is a HUGE improvement.

As a MOTHER series fan, I'm perfectly happy. I'm finally going to own EarthBound/Mother merchandise and I couldn't be happier. Well, I could be happier, but Lucas's time will come.

These tend to be more widely available. I see them almost all the time on any random store visit. Sometimes Link, too.

I'm going to cry bloody tears trying to find Robin and Lucina. They'll be as scares as Marth (pre re-release), Ike, Rosalina, and the others that tend to be butt-hard to find, if I'm lucky.

Maybe I'll just buy them for more money. ;;
At least I secured Ness and Charizard.

I know common in America. Australia has the worst shortage, we used to only have Mario and Pikachu

Ouch, that really sucks. Amiibo work world-wide, at least. Inconvenient to order but it can still cost less than what a scalper might try to charge you. I'm considering it for Robin and Lucina, to be honest.

 

[LambdaDelta]

I'm gonna be dreading my amiibo preorder being cancelled until it actually ships.

****ing recent Best Buy issues people have had.
