decided to play Amiibo Tap
Marth: Zelda 1 (fitting)
Lucina: Zelda 2 (fucking perfect)
Ike: Kirby's Adventure
Robin: Kirby's Dream Course
Little Mac: Kirby Super Star (what the fuck Kirby I already have two of these games)
Ness: Super Mario Bros 2/Doki Doki Panic (somewhat fitting)
Just got here, looks better than I was expecting it to for a randomly selected specimen.

Bowser for scale

Just impulse-bought Pac-man and Charizard... I didn't even WANT these two. They were just sitting in a local games store and I decided to pick them up.
I just need the Splatoon Triple Pack on Friday(and probably Lucina, but I have tons of trade collateral for her).
GAME had Ness a few hours earlier. ordered it. going to look pretty nice.
I hope Gamestop ships my stuff soon, in the fiasco that was April 2nd I chose Value shipping because regular was $20 more and 2-day was $50 :v:

Based Gamestop fucking everyone over once again.
as a wario main i'm pretty disappointed to see that they only carry ONE WARIO
One per customer means nothing when there's only one to begin with.
[sp]Also how the hell are there no Robins[/sp]
Can't wait to discover that only 3 Ness were shipped in all Canada.
No Charizards.
Glad I got mine online, jesus.
nintendo says: it'll get better guys we promise
haha nah jk we don't have a fucking clue what were doing, good luck
please understand
Plot twist: Iwata robbed the truck to create an excuse because there were never any amiibo to begin with.
Nintendo: People like our things? Shit, we should have made more. Maybe next time.
New slogan I'm going to suggest at the next board meeting.
Jesus, that 0 Lucina makes me uneasy. She's really the only on I want from this wave.
I really hope she isn't super fucking rare, or I'm going to die.
Asking around, supposedly they're making certain amiibo "exclusive" to certain Gamestop stores in an area. They take a county and if there's more than one Gamestop in it, they decide what store gets what characters.
So while the one pictured has none of those three, another in the same area might have no Wario, Pacman or silver Mario, but carry a limited stock of the others this one lacks.

This is probably an attempt to artificially boost the revenue of lower-profit secondary stores in an area, by having them carry the rare ones.

If any of the other Fire Emblem characters are anything to go by, she probably will be pretty rare.
There's a chart going around with estimates on what each store will get(at least in the US), and using an inventory tracker, one of my local Targets is getting NO LUCINA, and the other is only getting in 3.
The same two Targets are only getting 6 and 7 of the Triple Splatoon pack respectively.
Toys R Us is actually supposedly getting 10-30 of the Triple pack, but only 2-6 of Lucina.
What a sad day for Amiibo hunting tomorrow will be.
I might go nuts and just sit outside tonight. Hoping to come across some Fire Emblems or Ness, wish me luck.

Do you have the chart? I'll take a gander at that tonight before I face the outdoors.

Had a lucky store run and found Jigglypuff and Greninja in Fnac.
Wish I could make a picture, they look really nice.
looks like Im swinging by toys r us after work tomorrow morning lol
[editline]28th May 2015[/editline]
I just want robin and lucina tbh, maybe jigglypuff and charizard
I stopped by the TRU I've been getting all my Amiibo from, they had a single Marth in stock. Glad they fixed the Merth face on these new ones.
Hoping I can stop by when they open tomorrow to get a Lucina.
Wake up by 7
Be at TRU one city over by 8
Store opens by 10
disappointment by 10:15
Aww yee Friday gonna kick ass.
You will be mine Ninja Froggy (and hopefully Lucina and Robin).
Oh yeah I forgot to mention, Fnac only had 2 boy Inklings and 1 special bundle of Splatoon with the green squid.
Not sure if this could be considered an indication that girl Inklings will be harder to find, just a heads up.
Well I said to myself I was going to just try and give up on Amiibos, but when you got a friend who's taking a vacation to Japan, I might as well take the advantage of that.

To my surprise, Wario is the most detailed one of the bunch. I only have a basic phone camera, so I can't get a good quality shot of Wario. Now I just have to focus on Greninja and Jigglypuff. I hope those high stock numbers are true.

In my opinion, I'm not too surprised Wario is the detailed one. I've noticed that characters with larger features like Wario, DeDeDe, and Donkey Kong tend to have really nice paint jobs. Though, Ninty is also getting the hand of the more realistic proportioned characters, too.
