I made three amiibo purchases on Target.com on Friday. Two of them track properly, but the 3rd (Mega Man) yields an error page whenever I try to track it.

Same. Shipped on 14th but can't travk it.
They went up sometime, somewhere at a magical store according to scalpers.
Speaking of which, that listing got delisted http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lucina-Nint...240?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item3cf34a62f0
EB New Zealand has sold out of most of it's replacement stock except for Dedede, Meta Knight and Lucario. They've been in stock for days now they must have got quite a few.
Wow that's cool.

Hey everyone. About to call it a night, but I wanted to chime in here.
The AmiiboGAF Line chat has 73 people now, and we're getting closer to the 100 limit. Anyone still interested in joining, please PM me, CH4OS, Diggeh, or ThisBeJason, and we'll be glad to add more fellow AmiiboGAFers as soon as we can.
If you're unfamiliar, Line is a very user friendly chat app for mobile or PC, and this is an Alert system set up with 2 chats, general and Alerts. We chat it up in the general chat (this has Notifications Off), which is kept separate from the Alerts. When someone has an update on preorders or availability of sought-after Amiibos, it gets posted in the Alerts chat, which has notifications on, so your mobile device will ring/vibrate and you'll be aware as soon as everyone else by whoever posted it, making it that much easier and more efficient to be in the know.
So far, many relevant updates that have been posted in the thread have made it to users' phones as notifications, and we've helped each other secure a good amount of Amiibos. The more people keeping an eye out for availability and sending the Alert to the group, the better, so please consider joining, especially before all the spots are filled.
Not to mention, it's also a cool realtime chat with fellow active AmiiboGAFers, so we'd love to hear from more of you!
If you have any questions, PM us and we'll answer next chance we get. Hope to see you all in Line, it's working great!

Good luck to you amiibros that plans to get meta knight tomorrow. I'm not gonna even attempt to bother with meta knight after the whole rosalina fiasco. I'm not trying to outrun people in the cold >_>

I already have my Meta Knight preordered, so no problem. My Ike should be in tomorrow as well. After Sonic, Dedede and Ike, all I need is Villager. I really want that one to get a reprint. >_>
ADD: I talked with a Gamestop employee today that Sonic and Dedede would arrive next week due to the West Coast Port Strikes.

Remember last night when I told you that Amazon UK cancelled my order for wave 4 even though I ordered in 8th of Decemeber
So I just woken up & guess what Amazon shipped my order wave 3 complete
Mega-Man, Sonic, Meta Knight, King DeDeDe & Shulk
got a 6 pounds voucher for cancelling my order to

That's Wave 5 on 24/04/2015, today is Wave 4: Meta Knight, Mega Man, Sonic, Shulk and King Dedede

Not until April I'm afraid.
No update on Argos yet
Hoping for Argos today but if I remember my store didn't actually get any of Wave 3a until like a week after release anyway.

Meta Knight, Mega Man etc are still part of wave 3.
Lucina, Charizard etc are wave 4.
The waves are differently numbered in the UK I believe, I definitely saw some places numbering US Wave 4 as UK Wave 5.
None of the new Wave on Argos it seems.
This doesn't bode well for me on the bus to the store for opening time...
I read the first bit of that and then got excited... Then I got incredibly depressed.
It's been that way for the past few days.
Ah, were they added today? I assumed they'd gone up days earlier and I'd just missed them, so I stopped paying attention. If those are new and just show no stock yet I'll keep an eye, thanks.
Can't say I've noticed them on there before personally, but I could be wrong.
I've been looking on the site for the past 12 hours, they were on there yesterday.
Edit:
Also Gamestop UK had a glitch where it said Meta Knight was in stock for 10 minutes, turns out nobody was able to actually buy one.

I really wonder when Wave 4 US will be released. Might even get delayed compared to the rest of the world. I mean, we're already having issues with Wave 3, and the SM Wave is around the corner.
I just hope Nintendo realizes the potential insanity over Lucina and made her a common.

My bad - sorry for the false alarm!
No problem, I missed out on Little Mac and I didn't preorder King Dedede after being disappointed by pre ordering before so I'm in a mad rush to get one.
If you're an opener, I managed to get a DDD for little over £15 shipped from Japan last night after ShopTo messed up my DDD order.
Maybe we should set up some sort of sub-community, even if it's just to be used around wave releases?
I'm not sure what I am yet... I have a boxed Marth, Lucario, Diddy Kong and Shiek but an unboxed Fox and Captain Falcon.
It all depends on how good the box is.
Yeah, I mean there's a Canadian thread right? I didn't want to create one for fear of over saturation though. It would be nice to filter out all the Targets and Best Buys and Gamestops for the Argos and Tesco and GAME stores though

Does anyone know how to ship from Amazon UK to the US?
Enter your US address and Amazon should automatically know to ship it internationally
Well here is the one I bought in case you want to bite - it cost me £15.87. He shipped this morning.

Except they wont ship amiibos to the US
Yeah I was going to maybe suggest a UK, or European dedicated amiibo thread? Sometimes when I post something in here I feel as though it gets lost amongst the American based posts.
Is Nintendo World supposed to get some in today?
That would be great, its pretty hard to get up with this thread for UK Amiibo discussions
Sorry I meant the UK Nintendo Store
I was just able to order an Ike from Amazon UK no questions asked and I live in Minnesota. Cost me around $21 and won't get here till mid-March but hey better than nothing.
