UPDATE: Toys R Us has a lot back up for pre-order and some Wave 2 including Luigi back in stock for order but the limit is 1 per person. Hopefully this is an attempt to stop resellers but they'll probably just make multiple orders.

Just last night there were some folks on CAG talking about how TRU is the place to go for amiibo, and now this. Every time that I've gone into TRU they've had a tiny section compared to Best Buy.

I've only preordered wave 3 figs, and none of them were from TRU. My few other amiibo pick ups have been at Best Buy and Bull Moose.

I normally prefer best buy as well, but I have been to the 3 stores in San Diego looking for other things, and have noticed that the amiibo section is either very small or very bland, meaning all they have are pretty much of Donkey Kong, peach, kirby and maybe Mario. I have yet to even encounter a link, or any other truly different character in the wild.

OK so I reordered the Luigi Amiibo Toys R Us cancelled on me but now they just e-mailed me saying the original one that was cancelled shipped after I just ordered another one! This is getting absolutely insane!

I think I still have my Luigi coming.
Lucarios are gone, I was able to snag one off of TRU's eBay page. I also have one coming in from GAME just in case. I also have wave 3 proerderd on WalMart and Gamestop in store, just in case.

This is getting just bad, but dam, if I make it through and end up with a complete set, god dam that will be satisfying after all this trouble.

It is getting REALLY bad. But I got my wave three amiibo preordered, at this point, the only ones I can't get my hands on are Marth (join the club, I know) and Captain Falcon. Does anyone know the status on him? Is he wave 2 or what? Is he not out yet?

Marth is now out of stock on game after a few minutes. I snaged 2, for friends who are looking for them.
One might be up for grabs. I'll have to check with the other guy.

Wave 2 is out in some places, and not in others. It was split in two. All iI have where I live is Zeldas. All my Walmart orders are set to arrive next year.

I know I'm a super newb to TCP, (have lurked for over a year, just recently began posting) but if it falls through, keep me in mind. I'd love to have a complete collection.

I'll keep that in mind, Hoverboots.  ;)

I'll ask my friend when he gets out of school. I think this friend really wants a Villager as well.

Is Captain Falcon out yet or no? Didn't see him at Best Buy, Target, or TRU. Captain Falcon and Mega Man are really the only ones I wanted. Went ahead and preordered Mega Man since I haven't been able to find Captain Falcon in the wild.

I'm out. I don't want to collect these anymore. Anyone want an open Marth for say, ten bucks?

Sure. We'll work out the details later.
