Villager looks like its available on Nintendo UK's store.
The catch is that you need to also buy another copy of Smash Wii U.
T-thanks Nintendo.
I dunno if anyone else saw, but Marth and Villager have also popped up on TRU's website. No WFT but....happening maybe?

Yeah i keep checking WFT was available laye yesterday 3-4am but you couldnt add to cart...
Huh, Marth & Villager back on TRU's site? I don't know if I want Villager, but I feel like Marth might be useful to me.
PLEASE let this mean they're getting reprinted due to high demand....but then again, Nintendo really stresses "limited" when it comes to some of their stuff.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Instore pickup.
I talked to a TRU rep online this morning and they said there were expecting another shipment but didn't know when. Take it with a grain of salt but we will see. I am getting hyped though
Holy crap, please let this be true. A shame I still can't get Fox shipped to me, but maybe I'll grab Peach if Marth is part of the Buy 1 get 40% off deal...or I guess Villager just to be sale on the whole rarity deal.
Edit: Oh snap, he is. If it actually happens, it'd be $22.38 for both before tax.

Looks like Samus is no longer available for shipping on BestBuy.com and only 3 of the 10 stores around me have stock right now.
The beginning of the end for Samus possibly since Target is also showing discontinued...

Good thing I ordered anther Samus. This could get messy quick.
I'd highly suggest perhaps using this Target & Walmart stock checker & then perhaps check on GameStop's site. That'll probably help you determine which stores would be the best to check/narrow down your options.

Still available on Amazon. Don't start inducing panic
Too soon for panic. I would put Samus at DEFCON 3
Im in germany unfortunatly.
But the store seems to have all of them, so im not sure what to buy...
Inducing panic is what we do. I told everyone about Fox a week before it went imposible to find and no one believed me. The thing is, the moment something starts to get a little bit rare is when people and scalpers take the chance and start buying it until there is no left.
For now but basically if you think you'll want one, you really can't wait too long. Prioritize but assume one you may want won't be available forever.
Aren't we waiting for the port strike to end as well?
*Ponders why Toys R Us are selling amiibo for $1 more*
*Does math, realizes 2 amiibo = $20.78 if B1 G40% Off deal applied to amiibo being $12.99 instead of $13.99*
Only a $1.60 difference. I guess they figure that'd eventually add up with all the people taking advantage of the deal or something.

Crap, I keep forgetting about that, especially considering I learned about it from GG Xrd's LE being delayed because of it.

So how many smash characters are there in U?
That is how many Amiibos we will get then?
I really hope nintendo does a direct for Amiibos soon. Release date for 3DS support and the portal. Wave 4 details. An apology for wave 1 and 2 BS and an actual release date for Wave 3.
I really want Wave 3 to be more organized. Stealth releases is bullshit

Well minus the mii fighters and including Mewtwo we are looking at 49 characters

I popped by my Local Toys R Us today (Rochester) for something totally unrelated, and because my Mum works there (dat 10% discount) and had a quick look at their Amiibo selection. One peach and about 30 Pits. Is Pit only rare in the US?
Also, got my Mum on the look out for a Little Mac for me. If they get any more in (she swears she saw a couple go through her till) she's gonna snag one for me.
If anyone's interested they're apparently getting their next truck tomorrow, so on the off chance Rochester is anyone elses local, tomorrow afternoon will be the time to have a browse.

Unless they release those significant alternative characters, like
the Koopalings, male/female Robin, Alph, male Wii Fit Trainer, etc
I am not looking forward to them making new sets of amiibos for each game.
These smash bro ones better have the exact same functionality that the new ones do.
For instance, my Smash Mario better do the same things in-game that the new Mario Amiibo does, or im going to lose my shit.

Best Buy is holding my Pit right now.
Or so you think =p
Ordered a Pit off a 3rd party seller (The Factory Depot) on 12/23...the shipping estimate (when it woudl be shipped) said by 12/31...still havent been charged for it either =(

Wow. That is a lot of Amiibos.
It seems Nintendo will be pumping out more Amiibos than there are Disney Infinity figures and one annual Skylanders games worth.
Anyone affraid to actually sit down and do the math on how much youve spent so far on Amiibos?
Cause it scares the shit out of me, lol.
Im just buying without thinking and worrying about it later.
Fuck it, right?!
After this wave...I'm just going for characters I like, which means I'm not touching Pokemon or Sonic.

You some how read my thoughts through the internet! How did you do it?! Because I'm scared shitless to look at my bank account. Well I was in till yesterday when FINALLY got paid lol.
Exactly man. I spent a shit ton of money and refused to look at my account until I knew I got paid.
Now when I look in there, I just act like none of this ever happened.
Not me, I sell them at my anime store for a 4 dollar comission (I import them from the USA to Mexico, is the only way to get them for cheap, since they are expensive here), so they are pretty much paying themselves.
So youre planning on getting a shit ton of the rare ones and selling them all to Gaffers, right?
If so, put me on the list.

Well, I normally only order exactly what my clients want, so I rarely have extras.
That said, last week I send a VIllager amiibo to another gaffer for christmas for retail price, she wanted it for her daughter.

That's happened a few times and it just went back to grey again. I think it's done. Maybe one more preorder wave just before release.
