That would be much appreciated. I've been checking Gamestop.com, Bestbuy.com, and Amazon.com pretty regularly.

Gamestop has Amiibo Pit available for Preorder again

And now GameStop no longer has Pit available

I'm still amazed that NO ONE has Wave4 available for pre-orders yet in the US. I wonder if Nintendo was forcing them to hold them back until Wave3 was launched??

Probably. It makes sense, it's just that if ppl are so desperate to pick up the amiibos, as a business person, I'd wanna maintain that trend. Although majority would prob be resellers. Might make collecting these un-fun

Looks like several TRUs got the Wave3 in stock today, if you didn't get a chance to pre-order some (or Lucario) call/swing by ASAP and pick them up. Seems like many stores have them on the floor already, but YMMV.

Aw man you got me so excited, but no places near me got it. Now I am going to go crazy calling them everyday to make sure I don't miss them.

Really? That's interesting. Seems most stores around here (and elsewhere) got some - just some stores are not selling them til the 1st they say, while others said they're getting their shipment in on the 30th. So I guess if your store didn't get any in today, then perhaps the 30th would be when they will? But who knows?

Saw elsewhere that Nintendo apparently lifted the "street date" on these and stores can sell them whenever they get them in, so going to be a crazy next couple of weeks -- really hope my TRU holds my pre-orders (first time preordering through them so not sure).

I'm going to need a Meta Knight for sure and possibly a Rosalina if my other contact doesn't come through. If you (or anyone else) needs anything, post here and we can try and snag extras for each other -- worst case scenario you've got an extra that you can sell/trade or return to the store.

Well those stores will get fined for putting them out early.
They are most likely holding back the next wave until the new ones that are about to come out hit the floor. Being patient sucks sometimes......
I ordered a lucario from europe because their are no Toys R Us's near me.

I had a whole game plan for the Feb first to get my hands on the store exclusives. I was going to get to each store as they opened, they all open hours after each other and they are all literally in the same plaza where I am. But if they release them whenever, that'll be a hassle.

If someone stateside could help me with just the store exclusives that would be great in case I miss them. I was planning on buying multiples of the exclusives and then offering them here for cost + shipping for people here, but I didn't want to get anyones hopes up in case I miss them, or they only sell me 1. But if I can I will get as many as they will let me and let you guys know.
