By the way Walmart Canada is having a restock tomorrow online around 9am EST. Possibly in store too.

I presume Nintendo will now make Rosalina a Walmart exclusive in Canada (eventually), or is it still all over the place in extremely limited quantities?

Just heard about the Ness and King Dedede restocks in the US. Already have the former, but been searching for the other for a long time.

No anyone can sell Rosalina I believe, I got it from Toys R Us yesterday, it was on Amazon.ca today and bestbuy.ca yesterday.

Through restocks I was able to nab Marth, Pit, Fox, Shulk, Little Mac and Captain Falcon. I also picked up Pac-Man. I don't think I'll keep Falcon and Mac though because I don't like their models as much. Fox and Pit being from early waves have colourful stands holding up, but they don't look as bad as I thought. Shulk's stand isn't very noticable either. I also ordered Villager and Wii Fit Trainer but Walmart canceled my order.

I have a pretty large collection now. I think the only other ones I would really like to get now are Lucina and King Dedede. I've definitely spent enough money on these things now. I also need to get Olimar when he comes out, and that may be it, maaaaybe Gannondorf.

Also, EB Games Canada had an in store restock of Shulk and Ness if anyone's interested. All the Ness's at my store were held for pre-orders though.

+ Villager and Wii Fit Trainer. Not sure if I'll keep Wii Fit.

It's getting hard to take pics of all of them together :lol:

Got an extra Jigglypuff and Rosalina. The idea is trade bait, but I may just try and sell them in the amiibo communities for MSRP + shipping.

Sadly no Shulk or the rest of the FE Amiibo yet, as even with restocking there are issues here in the UK. May have a chance with Zero Suit Samus though.
Got lucky this month. Over here in London, I was at Hyper Japan (a convention of J-culture). Nintendo Official UK Store, had their own booth and was selling their goods including Amiibo. Got there early and was lucky enough to grab Marth, Ike and Shulk, the latter had very limited quantity.

Also managed to grab Toon Link and Robin from Nintendo Official UK Store, when they started restocking again. Very content with what I have so far. 8-)

Nice! Pretty rare to find those 3 at one location!

It almost seems that the gamestores here stopped selling (or at least showcasing) amiibos. Couldn't find any at home, but visited some gamestores in another town where I couldn't find them as well. Online seems the only option to get amiibos.
Also, in october amiibos also appear in card form, who's going to collect those?

The amoeba support in Super Mario Maker looks pretty righteous.
