Amiibos: Gotta Catch 'Em All.
Megatron:
Just pre-ordered my first amiibo. Amiibo or amiibos? WHat's the plural? I've heard it both ways...
Anyway, I grabbed Toon Link, Shiek and Mega Man because...well, because I'm a sucker for anything Zelda and MM. I also ordered Meta Knight because the figure looks Bad. Ass.
Also, I didn't realize the 20% off Gamers Unlocked worked with these. That is pretty boss.

Canadian Meta Knight Amiibo Preorder.

Though I managed to order a Meta Knight from Bestbuy.ca when it went up, I just pre-ordered two more from Future Shop, just to be safe. I had no idea they were going to offer them, but they are owned by the same company that owns Best Buy here in Canada. Thanks for that, larry!
Why did I pre-order two, you ask? Well, I get free shipping if I do that! That way, I can keep one, and return the other (or offer it to a needy TCPer). Pretty clever!

THIS.
Oh, also Bill Trinen from Nintendo answered a twitter question asking about the plural form of amiibo. It is indeed just "amiibo". Or maybe it was Reggie...

Can anyone find any Villagers, Wii-Fit, or Marths? I have a friend looking for them. He mostly wants Villager.

You have three options:
1) Buy an overpriced one on eBay.
2) Buy one from one of the euro Amazon sites.
3) Wait and hope that Nintendo gets around to making more.
