Knight, did you notice that's a new page for Shulk today? Here's the page he was sold on yesterday, and here's the page from today. With a release date 3 months out, this sounds like they're making more, and by the product image it's not a "version 2" reprint or anything it's exactly the same.
Bodes well for other scarce amiibos maybe? |
Yeah, that's why I linked to the new one in the post a few posts above, its dated May as opposed to the other "online only/sold out" one. I don't think its necessarily a "reprint" though. Gamestop is always doing strange things with their stock. They might have just been promised more stock that hasn't been delivered yet, either that or just wanted to spread some earnings into the next fiscal period (revenue recognition and all) with their existing held stock. None of the other "exclusive" retailers have done this, nor have any other amiibo, so I'm assuming its purely a GS management thing, but I could be wrong. Guess we'll find out in a few months.
