    Smyth's in Swords was a bust.
    None of the characters I'm after.
    Bugger

    I'm going to keep trying though!

    I just gave him my number and told him what I needed and I got a call of him today saying I have Meta Knight here for you. When I went up I asked where did he order it from and he said Limerick !

    Had a discussion with my wife who thinks I should try to buy them all just to have. Best get cracking then. Since I'm in Canada I probably have non rare ones that are rare there and vice versa if anyone wants to swap via post

    I guess the rarer ones here would be Little Mac, Shulk and Rosalina. If you have any of them, I would be interested.

    Need all of them myself, but I'll keep an eye out and grab doubles if I see any of them. Probably going to check out Target and Walmart tomorrow since I've to do some shopping for grub anyway

    If you get a double of Shulk I'd definitely be interested in that, Little Mac too.

    I'll see what I can turn up.

    My collection so far is limited only to the characters that were favourites tbh, but since I'm going all out, I need everything apart from:

    Mario
    Peach
    Yoshi
    Link
    Pikachu
    Kirby
    Donkey Kong
    Fox
    Samus
    Zelda
    Diddy Kong
    Luigi
    Bowser
    Toon Link
    Sonic

    Just saw a single Sonic Amiibo in Gamestop Swords.
    Sadly, Super Smash Bros is the best game Sonic has been in for years, not including the various sports titles he has popped up in.
    But 16.99 for him, a bit steep!

    Have Toon Link in my little Amiibo collection now, which makes a total of 3, Link Samus and Toon Link. Only really interested in my favourites!
    If/when Ganondorf comes available, I might have to make it 4...

    Pity they hadn't included Ridley in Smash, as that would be the coolest Amiibo going.

    I'm being teased by Game bogey cancelled my order and said it was a card issue first and then it was stock.
    Now they have emailed me in Monday looking for my number as they were missing a digit, so they could place the order.
    Yes!
    No reply since though. Bastuds

    Up in Belfast today to see a very expensive doctor afterwards I popped into GAME all they had was Donkey Kong Pikachu, Link, Mario and Peach for £15 each, I asked about Shulk and got a long winded moan about how the company cancelled the staff members Shulk and Meta Knight as they didn't have enough to fulfil orders,

    I'm thinking it is a prepared line just to satisfy customers but then again I'm paranoid up to my gills at the moment.

    I got a second email today from Game apologising for being so slow in their correspondence and that they will be calling me to replace the order.
    Still no call.

    It wouldn't surprise me tbh

    I would love the Kirby set, perhaps with Rainbow Curse in the Summer they'll issue some more of the relevant characters.

    I got similar experience. I was on to them about using the 50% off codes they sent me on an order that was already made and they said someone would call me to add the codes to the order. That was 4 days ago and no call.

    They called me today but I missed it. Takes around 5 days for them to call.

    Would be very interesting to see if they can replace your order, they told me that there was no chance of fulfilling my order. Best of luck with it though, hope they fix it for someone.

    Gold Mario is a WalMart exclusive! So annoying!
    Also they're getting a Silver Mario which is McDonalds exclusive!

    Was at Walmart and future shop earlier. Nothing rare or interesting there unless anyone's short sonic or donkey Kong. Loads of them

    Planning on picking up a few gold Marios though. Will happily trade for other amiibo I need and can't find here
