I called my local EBGames this morning, and the guy said there wouldn't be any available for walk-in, only for those who pre-ordered. May varies from one store to another though!

Exactly, which is the why I still feel like it is worth taking a shot tomorrow. The worst they'll say is no, sorry.

In THAT case.... STORE PICKUP.

EDIT: It's still priced at 13.99, is there a code or something?

Oh weird, everything is showing up full-price online. They had signage up above each individual figure at my local store saying they were $10 through 1/31 so I assumed it was a weekly ad deal.
Maybe it's an in-store only deal or something?

I too want MM badly. I love the X series the most. I can't wait to get them and paint custom MM's! I hope it'll be easy to make an X armored MM Amiibo custom.

He will probably be common/slightly uncommon. Hopefully I am right. I hope all stores get more than 4 per store.

Hope he is common otherwise I will get so sad cause I want one so bad ;__;

Gonna camp out at toys r us tomorrow at 9:30 am in hopes of getting a lucario :/ If i don't, i'll have to wait it out and see if a second shipment ever comes. Can't afford to pay scalpers right now.

I talked with Target, the Disney Infinity is an in store only event. Guess I'll either have to find the time to pick it up by Sat, or cough up $4 extra and wait until I get Rosalina

Bowser amiibo has made its way to Gamestops in Arizona.

Guess California really will have to wait until tomorrow. Later today if we're lucky.
 
I ordered Toon Link and Diddy with them last Wednesday after 4pm, so it shipped the next day with second class delivery (}usually they offer first class), it should've come Monday at the very latest and I'm still waiting. I can't send off a lost parcel form until 15 working days after dispatch either. Ridiculous.

I don't want to buy them elsewhere unless I'm stuck with two sets but knowing my luck if it doesn't come, by the time I try and find another Toon Link it'll be out of stock everywhere or at inflated prices :/

Fair enough. I've been wreck less and bought them multiple times from anywhere. But I know this Sheik should be here, especially from Shoptos top notch delivery service. I'll let you know what happens with mine.

My CA GS said their Bowser shipment was supposed to be in yesterday but didn't make it on time. Boo... I'm still Wave 3less here :(

I started collecting about a week ago. This is now my collection. I'm only missing Little Mac and I have a double Rosalina. Should take a better picture this weekend.

Stopped by TRU on my way to lunch since it was on the way and picked up Bowser and Toon Link. They had tons, so I assume they are not rare. No Pit though :(

I give up trying to get Little Mac, Falcon, WFT, Villager, etc

Tired of my rage of frustration when I get on these sites the SECOND I get the text and still miss out.

What a joke.
 
managed to pickup rosalina, megaman & two toon links yesterday. saw people scurrying to the registers with armfuls or as many as they could carry. couple in front of me spent over $300 on their haul. crazy.
 
ugh. My Mega Man from Amazon.ca still says

Not yet shipped

Seems like the TRUs should have a least a handful of extra Lucario outside of their stock for preorders. The two stores (mine and the one a friend works at in another state) both appeared to have about 6 on top of the preorders.

However, based on how TRU handles Skylanders, I'd say its reasonable to assume Lucario will at some point be ridiculously common at TRU.


Not sure if anyone speculated on it, but I find it extremely curious that none of the "exclusives" happen to have the "X Exclusive" sticker on them. Target, TRU, Best Buy and Gamestop all have stickers for exclusive products, so if these were meant to be exclusive forever, they should have them on. Just my two cents anyways.

Bowser's common, Toon Link is in between, Sheik is the rare one.

Pit is just as rare as Sheik.
