Greetings, ive contemplated getting the amiibo to only the ones i wanted but after seeing how nicely theyre sculpted i had to do like pokemon and gotta catch em all. I am currently living in Australia but was born n raised in the states, the amiibo craze is barely starting to hit now. I prefer getting the amiibos here as opposed to the states. I got wave 1 & 2 complete, although i was lucky to get nearly all of wave 1 on the shelf a day after release all minus Marth which i had to pay a premium for. Wave 2 preordered luckily and have in hand.


Wave 3..., idk where to start. I luckily preordered all the figures that were going to be "exclusive" to retailers (dumb idea imo) back in the states. The rest i decided to preorder and have those shipped to my usa address. The store i preordered the rest were...toys r us. Now if you havent been reading of this youll know that tru sent a massive wave of cancelled preorders due to technical matters. Tru are trying to correct the situation by reinstating orders ONLY if you paid by cc, if you paid by paypal they couldnt legally reinstate your order why idk.


Anyway in the next few days they are supposedly going to resend an email to be able to reorder them again. I feel its too late to order them at this stage and ill miss out on the figures but the discount they had fir buy one get one 40%off. So after i got the cancellation i went nuts trying to preorder the ones im missing. I went to the eb games here, they said as of 9am that morning preordered placed prior would get their figures the rest were sol. They said they had limited amount available online so i rushed back home to order. Was able to get all but ike which was sold out.

Went searching online and preordered at walmart which had all including ike. I placed the order and so thats where i am right now i have half guaranteed whereas the others its up in the air due to demand. I have 2 sets of preorders placed in case one gets cancelled. I dont know what tru are planning to do but if they allow me to order guaranteed figures discounted ill cancel the others but at this point i really dont trust tru, so im wondering wth to do with all of these orders. I hate that amiibo have taken off, happy for Nintendo but not for regular customers/fans looking to get a hold of their favorite fjgure due to scalpers.

Sorry for the long post lol
