Jigglypuff is Target Exclusive, and Target in Canada closed.
...
If u bothered to read what I said when you were asking this a few days ago (which u obv didn't) u would kno I said this probably won't be the case, because rosalina was originally target exclusive in canada, but then when target closed (or closing) down, they made her available elsewhere.
So jigglypuff will probably be available in most places
lmao I went there too, I couldn't register unless I signed in with Facebook. But I just read some onlin reviews and they're such a mixed bag idk if I even wanna risk it now :[
@Jigglypuff/Rosalina discussion - Rosalina did eventually show up at other places here in Canada, she randomly turned up on the Walmart website like a month after her actual release lol so Jiggly will probs be the same but just as hard to get since ppl will buy to resell in places where they are store-exclusives.
If you find Jigglypuff, please buy it for me. I will try to find one for you over here too /tyinadvanceily
if i find any jigglypuffs i'll buy them all for you <3

I bet when I go hunting for Jigs, it'll be sold out because I came in late. D:

I can imagine you having a room with just the Jigs amiibos.

Really regret not jumping on the bandwagon early. Thankfully I just received in the mail today all the Wave 3 Amiibos from a guy in Japan. Got really lucky too. Only payed $7 more then I would have to buy them individually in the store.

Someone should eventually get to make a comprehensive documentary about amiibo. I mean, seriously, the craze behind these little guys is so soul-crushingly insane that it generates a lot of buzz.
Here's a somewhat long recap reminding us why the amiibo craze is unprecedented, at least in North America.
From what I'm seeing so far, it makes me glad that I'm not dead-on determined to get every single amiibo in existence ASAP. Otherwise, my sanity will be taking a huge toll on my well-being as the amiibo situation is hugely stacking against me. I currently have 15 amiibo, all of which are from Smash. I'm surprised that I even managed to get a near-flawless Mega Man amiibo. As of now, here's what I currently own:
- Mario
- Pikachu
- Yoshi
- Peach
- Donkey Kong
- Samus
- Kirby
- Zelda
- Luigi
- Diddy Kong
- Bowser
- Toon Link
- Sheik
- Sonic
- Mega Man
That sounds quite fairly complete, and I'm satisfied for the most part. The bad news is, I'm still hungry for more! Too bad that my limited gaming budget and the fact I actually have a job are going to prevent me from getting the rare amiibo. That is until Nintendo manages the amiibo more accordingly to the overwhelming demands.
Here's a somewhat long recap reminding us why the amiibo craze is unprecedented, at least in North America.
It all started with the first 12 amiibo based on characters from Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U, and we were completely clueless on how rare some of the amiibo actually are. As soon as we know that Marth was apparently extremely rare, followed by Villager and Wii Fit Trainer, the collecting craze has begun growing faster.
Each subsequent wave left us with fewer and fewer amiibo to be sold on stores and preorder, and the more obscure characters are getting more and more difficult to acquire, especially when store-exclusive comes into the play. Doesn't help that there are plenty of scalpers jumping in the bandwagon since the very beginning, including that one Sonic the Hedgehog 1 fan from Canada who bought well over 100 Rosalina amiibo out of his sheer hatred for her sexualized appeal that ruined the Mario franchise as a whole. I'm not even kidding, the latter totally happened. But it doesn't end there.
With the release of Mario Party 10 in America, a Super Mario version of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Bowser and Toad have been released as well. They're all pretty much easier to find than the Smash ones, but Toad does appear to be tougher to find than the rest of the bunch.
Wave 4 was announced on Nintendo Direct alongside with Splatoon amiibo to be launched on May 29. The craze has gotten so crazy that pretty much any preorder for these guys is going to be gone within minutes if not in hours. Even GameStop and EBGames servers are bogged down by a massive influx of users attempting to preorder these amiibo as soon as they put them up online, along with the Target-exclusive Jigglypuff preorder being up a bit earlier than in their usual business hours and then completely disappear in minutes. The amiibo situation has gotten so crazy that one could point out that Nintendo Co. Ltd. isn't doing a great job on supplying enough amiibo to the right places lately, especially in North America. For some people, rare amiibo collecting becomes an exercise in futility. But, who really knows how many amiibo the stores are actually keeping for in-store sales.

So I actually got an Amiibo after saying that I would for a while. I decided to get Bowser.
I believe I might pre-order the edition of Splatoon that comes with an Amiibo, so I can at least say I'll be expanding my collection somewhat, and I'll probably keep an eye out for Link, Pikachu, Yoshi or Dedede (though that last one it's likely).
