I feel like you need to go back and review the conversation to determine who started the flaming.

New marth looks better. Wouldn't mind picking up one of those.

New Marth isn't actually different. There are Marth's that look like that already. This is my first print EU Marth:



The quality of Marths was just inconsistent, though EU mostly got the good Marths. EU seems to get the best quality Amiibos, in exchange for less stock.

Huh, ok then. Still might try to get one out of the restock batch anyway when it comes out since he's the only FE one I don't have ordered. Have Ike, Lucina, & Robin coming together from PlayAsia around the end of July.

My EU Marth has a great face too, found him in GAME while picking up Donkey Kong and Samus, I guess not all were top notch quality or something because my one doesn't have a bent sword either, :/

Wait, has Marth (and/or Villager) been restocked in Europe? I went to Argos yesterday and forgot to check for Marth (who I want the most right now). But I'm not getting New Villager, he reminds me of when I had my head operation.

No, I got mine in January.

Let me get this straight - you're saying we shouldn't be "justifying" taking "UK stock".

Meanwhile, you've actually taken "UK stock"? Am I understanding this right?

I took UK stock?

Quote: sonicbrawler182

Also I would like to note that I don't have a problem with importing figures when they are already sold out in your area (I have hooked CAV up with Amiibos multiple times, and I just recently traded an Ike for a Gold Mario with a US guy).

Unless I'm understanding this incorrectly...?

You have candy and I have candy, you eat all yours and then take mine is that fair?

Are you selling your candy?

Save for him getting me Pit, which was a Christmas gift, any figures he's gotten me or intends to get me are part of a trade for figures that he can't get over there (e.g. Dedede, Shulk).

So, you're actually taking limited "UK stock" from people in the UK, then you're shipping out limited "US stock", keeping it out of US hands. And then trying to act like we're horrible people for "justifying" taking stock from one country to another?

Meanwhile, sonicbrawler182 is complaining about importers, when he's also A.) Importing from countries with limited stock and B.) Shipping his own country's stock overseas.

Yeah. Okay then. If there was any remote chance of me taking your arguments seriously before, it's completely gone at the window at this point. You're seriously arguing that importers are "part of the problem", then you both take part in importing. Great job, guys.

I like how you STILL keep telling me I said "importing is wrong" when I never once said that.

I did not say you said importing is wrong. I said you were complaining about importers and saying they were part of the problem. Mayhaps you should go back and re-read that last post?

Well if we were given the same amount of candy then it would be but seems like we get less than you guys.

NOA's Facebook releases statement about plans to have more stock of Amiibo.

NOA's Facebook releases statement about plans to have more stock of Amiibo.

About time they did more than just shrug their shoulders and say "we're looking into it". They need to do more than just send out an extra wave of the rares, more like a truck load of every non-Mario based character then continue steady release of said characters rather than simply expecting only Mario to sell.

@Seiki I hope you are exclusing Rosalina from the Mario characters because it would be great if I could get her

Oh yes, given her worldwide rarity, she gets a pass. Toad is also excluded from my above post since his availability is very hit or miss. I've only ever seen 1 of each in stores and both of those are sitting next to me right now.

I was more referring to all the Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, DK, & Diddys that line the shelves.

Europe could use more Diddy, Luigi (Smash), and Bowser (Smash), but less Toad.

I'm the sure the US would be willing to trade if you throw in some Ike I've seen lining shelves in pics in Europe. XP

on saturday i got chirizard and monday i got wario they were the only ones i saw.

We've also got a glimpse at Target's Wave 4 stock.

Jigglypuff - 24
Silver Mario - 12
Pac-Man - 12
Charizard - 8
Wario - 8
Inkling Boy - 4
Inkling Girl - 4
Splatoon Pack - 4
Jigglypuff might not be that rare!

What is the release date again? Might be able to go and try to fight my way to try to get some of them.

I see Wario isn't as common as expected, and the Splatoon ones aren't as common as hoped. Though what exactly is the source of these numbers? nd are they in boxes of characters or single figures?

12 pac-men?!

Same release date as Splatoon, May 29th.

Well, that makes getting an extra pac man to custom A LOT easier.

Here's the count for all best buy's wave 4 release day stock
Lucina - 2
Robin - 2
Wario - 3
Pacman - 6
Charizard - 6
Splatoon Pack - 5
Inkling Girl - 3
Inkling Boy - 3

Once again, I ask what is the source of these numbers and are they in reference to case numbers or individual figure counts?

I dunno about those specific numbers, but what I presume maybe soon be an ex-Target employee was posting stuff on Reddit earlier today.

this was on reddit only reason jiggly has so much is target gets all her stock unlike the rest of the wave its the same reason that ness lasted so long on preorders but this is only one target so stock at all stores are diffrent.

So there's apparently a sale at TRU right now; If you preorder Splatoon in stores, you can get any amiibo for only $5. Quite a steal! I might use it on the Splatoon 3 pack if that's applicable.

It won't.

...Well then I'll find something to use that amazing deal on if it doesn't work . Probably Greninja!

Keep in mind that Rosalina had similar numbers when first released, but never got a restock and is listed as discontinued in Target's systems.

I only need Charizard pad man and Mewtwo and then I will be done...unless Rayman joins the smash...

After the Shulk, Ike, Robin, & Lucina I pre-ordered come in, I only need Game & Watch, ROB, Boy Inkling, and Super Mario Rosalina to be done with Amiibo. That is unless they come out with something interesting like Super Mario Waluigi or Boo.

I want them all but I especially want Ness, Toon Link (got), Lucas and if they ever make them, Nabbit, Lakitu, Shy Guy and Spear Guy

Just ordered a villager off of amazon.... The price was ridiculous but hey, I'm getting him!

I'm talking about upcoming restocks after Marth's that are outside of Nintendo World. Plus, we all know the mario shipments will be much larger than the other restocks.

I've come to the realization that no matter how much we *****, whine, petition, or whatever- Nintendo does not give a damn. They want money. They don't care about people with lives, jobs, school, family events, ect. They'll take whatever money they can, even if it comes from lifeless assholes who buy up our stock. (and sell it for a higher price that nintendo gets none of!) I'm just gonna import everything that isn't dirt common. Even if it comes from the UK. Thanks, Nintendo. Thanks a lot.
