Just out of curiosity, are there any UK retailers taking preorders for Robin anymore?

I don't think so... at least currently.

If you're after EU preorders, your best bet is german online shops, most haven't opened their preorders yet.

This is getting worse.

I think he's rare in America but not in Europe.

I can tell you fist hand, he is rare there. Becoming rare here too.

 

[Spades]

This is getting worse.

Sure is.

 

[BumblebeeCody]

Yep. I was awoken by the same screen showing the same 3 Amiibos. This really fucking sucks.

 

[eltercero]

Just so you know, today they put wave 4 on Amazon ES and it was gone in a few minutes.

[H1PSTER]

King Dedede is in stock at game.

Edit:

Shulk and Meta Knight too!

I HOPE I WAS LUCKY!

 

[Zafir]

King Dedede is in stock at game.

So is Shulk. Managed to get an order in finally.

 

[Bazry]

Shulk never came up with a add to basket button for me, managed to get Meta Knight though

 

[Kyonashi]

Fingers SO tightly crossed...

Spoiler

I'd given up hope...

EDIT: He's out of stock again.

 

[kubus]

NO

Late again

fuck everything!

 

[H1PSTER]

NO

Late again

fuck everything!

Dedede and Meta Knight seem to still be in stock (I.E. I can add them to basket) whereas Shulk gives me an error.

Keep trying Amiibro, hopefully you'll be able to get one soon.

 

[Spades]

Good luck guys! Hope they come through for you. All of these sporadic small levels of stock make it seem like they literally found a box in the corner or something.

Thanks, when I tried again MK and DDD were added to cart but they got removed when I went to check out

I already have Dedede though, need MK and Shulk! Oh well, I have them coming from Japan anyway (though a bit on the expensive side)...

 

[Zafir]

Button now seems to have been removed from Dedede and MK.

Tell you what, I really shouldn't have started this. I put in an order for DDD and MK as well, even though I wasn't going to get them. x.x

It did this for me but I kept trying and it went through.

even if you stop trying, this is good for everyone else who's trying - keep at it until it doesn't even let you add it to basket, if it says "temp out of stock" keep giving it a try, that means it's in a basket but it hasn't been bought it AFAIK.

Edit: Daw.

 

[kubus]

NO NO NO NO

I have Shulk in basket

Am at paying screen

I suddenly need the pin code of my boyfriend's cc

I DONT KNOW THE PIN

/cries

 

[Zafir]

Use paypal?

But yeah, Shulk is still possible to buy, you just have to be patient when adding to cart, sometimes it errors.

Good luck those who are still wanting it!

 

[Mumups]

Yes!!! Just got all 3
If the button doesn't appear try using the PC site.
Ordered DDD and Meta Knight then switched to PC site and the button appeared for Shulk

 

[shiyrley]

NO NO NO NO

CALL HIM USE PAYPAL DO SOMETHING DON'T GIVE UP

 

[kubus]

WHAT THE FUCK I DIDNT KNOW THEY HAD PAYPAL


Aaaarghhh just got the pin from bf using stupid cryptic messages but he was removed from my cart again

and now he's gone

 

[Zafir]

I wouldn't worry, the button keeps reappearing. MK for example, the button just came back.

 

[kubus]

Yeah I'm F5ing those pages with the speed of light

I'm prepared now.

And I'm really feeling it.

 

[Hot Coldman]

GOT ME A SHULK

oops I guess that gif was broken but YEAAAH

 

[Bazry]

Stayed on the page and just kept refreshing, suddenly the Shulk page loaded slowly and I saw a Purple button, so clicked it without it loading properly and it added to basket, quickly checked out and have an order for Shulk now as well \o/

 

[Mob]

Managed to get 1 of each but won't believe it until they actually arrive.

Good luck to everyone refreshing, fingers crossed for ya's!

 

[Stilton Disco]

Ya fucking beauty!!!

Got a Shulk! Thanks for the heads up mates!

And now I wait and hope it's neither canceled nor something else that's delivered!

 

[kubus]

Meta Knight button is now also greyed out...

I fear that might've been the last of them

No.... how could I let this happen

edit: Pages have also stopped loading for me.

Seems to be going round in circles. The DDD button is now back. lol

They'll come back, don't worry.

Dedede is available again for example.

We're all rooting for you!

 

[kubus]

Thanks everyone!

I already bagged a Meta Knight, still refreshing Shulk...

 

[Highwind]

Lmfao

The amiibo thirst is real.

Spoiler

Still no place where I can pre-order Robin.

 

[Bydobob]

"All order items were out of stock items and have been removed from the order.

0 items"

-Shulk
-Meta Knight
-King Dedede

Come on, who's responsible? Was lightening quick between placing items in basket and checking out too.

Edit: got a Meta Knight eventually, phew!

Congrats on meta knight!

Thanks, managed to bag King Dedede too eventually but Shulk is a slippery so-and-so. Reckon they've all gone by now.

 

[Tenki]

Today I recieved my Megaman amiibo from Amazon ES

They're restocking quite fast, so no need to go crazy with the prices for Lucina and Pac-Man.

 

[kubus]

Yeah, I'm still refreshing Shulk occasionally but I think they're all gone by now. Glad to have Meta Knight though, he was the most expensive to import. Shulk is still affordable from Japan.

 

[Zafir]

Yeah, MK and DDD seems to keep coming back in but Shulk hasn't for ages. :I

 

[Bydobob]

The annoying thing is I had Shulk in my basket first then greedily carried on shopping and wasting precious seconds with MK and KD. Ah well, it's all part of the fun I suppose!

 

[Zafir]

I'm just a bit worried they'll cancel. D: Hope it ships soon so I can stop worrying.

 

[Bazry]

I've just had to open up a ticket with shopto because my cheap Pikachu never arrived

 

[MarkMclovin]

Dammit, nowinstock says that Game has Dedede in stock but the button is greyed out.

Ok, IT and DE, you're my hope now.

Are you serious? Nintendo is making me decide between my education and amiibo.

For any other Spaniards, Carrefour seems to be getting rid of these things. Got a couple of them for 9'90€ each, they don't seem to have gotten anything new past the Toon Link wave.

I have a Robin pre-ordered, if it comes through and you remember to send me a message I might sell it to you .

Cheers

 

[H1PSTER]

Please ship it Game.

Cheers!

 

[JonnyKong]

Wahooo I got my Meta Knight order in, thanks for the heads up team.

Kinda disgusted I had to pay Game prices, but what can ya do ey?

 

[Dash Kappei]

Fuck can't even put an order 'cause I dunno if Windom's package is actually gonna show up

Can't afford to risk getting doubles again, I still need to unload a Trainer and a Falcon plus I have two fully paid complete wave 4 that I'll have to deal with comes April 23rd.

But it's really painful (and frustrating!) seeing Shulk and MK in stock and not ordering them right away, goddamn

 

[kadotsu]

Saturn.de has little mac

 

[Bydobob]

Finally got a Shulk order through, though whether they actually have any in stock is another question. It's been a strange old process.

Kinda disgusted I had to pay Game prices, but what can ya do ey?

Yep, and 'fessing up to the wife that I'd just spent £45 on amiibos didn't go down too well either. My kids on the other hand think their daddy is ultra cool so I'll live with it.

 

[H1PSTER]

I've read on twitter that game has cancelled some orders.

 

[Minister of the Dog]

Less than half an hour after your post they were gone. That was fast.

I've read on twitter that game has cancelled some orders.

My Shulk is still there, but I don't have very high hopes to be honest.
