got 2 sets of Wave 3 preordered just encase something gets screwed up. Have 2 of each exclusive ordered as well except for Rosalina. I have a feeling she will be back up for an extended time for preorder before launch tho.

I've had the non exclusives on preorder from amazon the day they went up. Let's hope they pull through this time. The exclusives will be a bitch for me since I couldn't preorder meta knight, or rosalina.

I really think the rarest Amiibo will be Shulk because he's Game$top exclusive and i think he's gained a fair amount of popularity since Smash. Kinda like how more people sought Xenoblade on Wii after Smash Bros.

I just want to grab me a toon link, and a shiek. Still need TP link from previous sets. I dont get out often enough though.

Then I'll just want a ganondorf to complete the Zelda amiibos set It's all I care about.

I can see Toon Link becoming rare because a lot of people will probably want one, and I'm worried Mega Man is going to become rare because Capcom is going to pull some shit and force Nintendo to not manufacture as many of him for whatever reason. A kneejerk reaction, admittedly, but I'm pretty used to Capcom actively working to hose over Mega Man fans.

Did we have confirmation that EVERY Smash Bros character will get an Amiibo? I'm only buying the characters I really like/actually use in the game, so I'd be really happy to see a ROB, Pac-Man, and Game & Watch eventually, but frankly I'm not getting my hopes up for at least two of those.

My thing is if you don't preorder the entire wave from day one don't complain that you have to pay eBay prices. You can walk into GS and pay 35-40 dollars to preorder the full set (5 dollars per amiibo). If you have no money right now then preorder it online. You don't pay anything until the item is received at GS.

Id love to know where Nintendos head is at in the amiibo situation. Ill snap a pic of your amiibo section at work here in a few. We literally have 1 Pikachu, 1 Kirby, and a bunch of Peach, Link, and Luigi. All Wave 1s, we have STILL NOT GOTTEN A 2ND SHIPMENT. Believe it or not people are still coming in and occassionally asking for Mario, DK, Fox, etc....and we have yet to receive more. And Wave 2....we got 2-4 of each except Pit, still didnt get him in store, and have not gotten more of any others either. Pretty crappy, especially for a BBY.

I'd rather buy one without paying the shipping, even in canada the shipping is probably near the cost of the amiibo, I will keep you in mind though thanks

I have a question for a Canadian member who pre ordered Mega Man and Toon Link from Amazon.ca

Do you have a delivery estimate yet? I got these 2 + Bowser and Sheik pre ordered and I have a delivery estimate for Bowser and Sheik, but not for Mega Man and Toon Link. I know it's still early, but I'm thinkg Amazon might have accepted too many pre orders?

I have all of Series 3 preordered, Rosalina from the UK. I think Ike will totally be the rarest. The mainstream had no idea who Marth is, Ike is even Less known. I think Rosalina will be the most artificially shorted exclusive, she's a Mario character, I don't think she'll be as rare as we think. I think Sonic will be fairly common and Mega Man damn hard to find. Yup, there's my 2 cents!

I'm only interested in Mega Man. I'd only pick up others to help others looking for them. Although wave 4,I think I want a Duck Hunt Dog amiibo.

No clue exactly which amiibos will be hard/easy to find,but I don't think Mega Man will be that difficult to find. Capcom doesn't make Mega Man games but they crank out some Mega Man merchandise,especially when it comes to collectible figures,so I don't see him being scarce.

I don't see Toon Link being super hard to find seeing as I think Nintendo will have plenty of their staple characters readily available for all. We will see.

Rosalina is my best guess for being the rarest and going to say.....let's go Meta Knight for second scarcest.

Good to know I am not alone. Not sure it's a good thing though haha.

I ordered a Mega Man and Toon link from EBgames just to make sure I don't get screwed by Amazon!

Some of wave 4 has released in other parts of the world. We're close to half way now!!! It would be awesome if Nintendo Direct released some information on wave 4.

Maybe they split the wave again and just didn't tell anyone?

With Target Canada closing down I doubt we'll see Rosalina be released in Canada.

My Rosalina shipped today, supposedly. We'll see if it actually shows up.
