I wish Best Buy or Amazon would hurry & confirm their exclusives. I've got AC Cloud taken care of, but I need to order the other 5 SSB amiibo + Young Link....& maybe Pikmin.

I have email alerts running for Link SS and femcorrin - I hope they don't come up within the next 2 days lol.

Think the supply for the GS exclusive Link will be good?

Okay so I'm not even going to attempt to get a full Zelda set, but I do think I'll have to cop...

- Link (Skyward Sword)
- Bayonetta
- Bayonetta (Player 2)
- Cloud
- Cloud (Player 2)

Don't really like the Advent Children Cloud but I think the amiibo looks better than the traditional design unfortunately. Maybe add Corrin to that list too. I was going for Fire Emblem completionist, but I think I might drop that. Fates didn't hook me like Awakening.

Also the new Inkling Boy is sexy as fuck, but I'm not all that into Splatoon. He's on my "if I find him cheap" list. That's how I scored Callie and Marie. Still need to see if I can find an 8-bit Link, the Mario is one of my faves. I think Zelda (Wind Waker) can be found cheap too... wish it was Tetra.

Some think the Player 2 Smash amiibo are a pre-cursor to a new Amiibo set for Smash Switch. Which is just...damnit, Nintendo ;_; don't do that to me

My local best buy was doubling down on Lucina by a truck load and apparently is on clearance.

I'm getting the Echoes amiibos but I dunno if I want to get her because then I would feel obligated in trying to get every FE amiibo that was released before Echoes and Corrin.

A lot of the reprints are like that. Numerous games tops are loaded with robin

the amount of robin is ridiculous, Gamestop is literally nothing but animal crossing and robin nearby and they have been on clearance for a while now.

Huh! I was wondering why I was able to grab a Robin on clearance in GS.

I do hope they will be well stocked on all the Zelda ones at the very least!

Some of my best buys were swimming in Luci's too, so I made sure to pick up the one I needed for my collection before she suddenly poofs.

MM Link is going to be a Best Buy exclusive. Nowinstock has alerts setup for it.

I'm guessing that means Bayonetta P2 will also be BB exclusive.

I was weak... after a hundred hours playing I had to buy some BotW amiibos, Guardian and Rider should be coming in a couple of weeks. Hopefully the others will be restocked untill the end of the year.

Has Skyward Sword Link, Majora Link, Corrin Player 2, or Bayonetta Player 2 gone up yet?

No. Corrin and SS link are Amazon so don't expect those to go up until a week before release. With them being prime only for a little while.

Majors Link and Bayonetta Player 2 are rumored to be Best Buy.

Hey nothing wrong with wanting to grab some amiibo for BOTW. I ended up getting a smash Link just for the clothes and Epona. And Toon Zelda for the Hero's Shield.

I posted this in the new Zelda amiibo thread, but I'll post here, too:

I feel like there should be a representation from A Link to the Past since every other console Zelda game (minus Zelda 2 on the NES) has been given an amiibo. There must be love for the SNES!

I doubt ALttP or any of the other 2D games besides TLoZ are going to get amiibo representation, given that the TLoZ Link amiibo is presented as pixel art instead of the official character art. But I can see ALBW Link getting an amiibo, at least, which would be nice.

I doubt it too but would love a retro Zelda 1/2/3/4 art Link and Zelda.

I stopped buying amiibos and sold about half of what I had because it was becoming clutter and I was being taxed in almost all of them, so I wasting money too. Decided to sell and just leave the ones I like most.
But I'm a sucker for the Zelda series...

And about that, after 133 days and missing from the tracking sytem since january, my 30th Zelda amiibo arrived (and luckly no importing taxes). I thought they were lost or stolen forever.

Still only got Cloud P2/Corrin P2 in amazon Japan. Hoping to get Bayonetta P2 as well, but its price keeps fluctuating $20USD and up. Same with the 3 new Link amiibo. I'd love to get all six of those amiibo and get it to the Tenso warehouse...
 
apparently someone on reddit got their p2 cloud pre-order cancelled by gamestop. hopefully its was bc the user's card declined not bc gamestop took to many pre-orders.

Man I wish Best Buy or whoever would hurry up and say when they're taking pre-orders for MM Link already. Preferably with a one per person limit. Was fine missing the pre-orders for TP Link, but I really want MM. Starting to get that old worry of, "Will I get it or not?" that we all felt back with the first few series. It doesn't feel very good. 😧

Remember when we thought the early amiibo days were behind us?

Yeah me too.
