EricaofRenais Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 So I just got an email from Gamestop saying my Ike amiibo was delayed and backordered. Anyone else have this happen and does this mean I won't be getting it and should be checking every store in my area next weekend for one? Or did I just get this email because when I ordered Ike they said it would come out on the 1st and now it is not coming out until the 13th? They did not say my order was canceled so is there still hope? I will not cancel my order and wait and see what happens, but should I have a back up plan? I can't go to any store the weekend Ike comes out, which is why I ordered him online and I managed to get lucky and find Marth at my local Target I just want all the FE amiibos and I tried to plan ahead.

Ein Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 This shouldn't be a surprise given how bad the whole Amoobo thing has been from the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingddd Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Yes. Majority of wave 3 except for Bowser have been postponed or delayed shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elieson Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Good to know that the Mario classic franchise characters are in surplus though. =sarcasm= Sure would be lame if we ran out of Luigi or DK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I pre-ordered Ike from Toys R Us. I later got email saying all the wave 3 pre-orders were canceled but that they would try to reinstate them. An email came for everyone but Ike, saying that those who pre-ordered Ike would get an email later (in January). I never got that email. I pre-ordered Ike from GameStop. I haven't heard anything since. My brother ordered two Ikes (one for each of us) from some Japanese site a couple days ago. Praying that works out.

Kirie Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Ike's not that hard to find Europe-side. He's £10.50 on amazon.co.uk or €14.99 on amazon.de. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I haven't gotten an email, I have Ike and Shulk preordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Fan Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I didn't even get the chance to pre-order Ike. By the time I got to a computer to pre-order him...he was gone everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentacotus Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Yep same happend to me same with my Sonic one too. I haven't checked but I'm guessing the rest of them were too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I haven't gotten an email, I have Ike and Shulk preordered. I got Dedede and Shulk preordered and paid for. Ive gotten no email from Gamestop. But i have spoken with my Gamestop and lady said she was uncertain of when the amiibo are coming in. Its a problem everywhere. I will get em this month some time. Ill likely see them when MM3DS gets picked up. Pretty sure they'll have em by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I didn't, but that's probably because I was recently in GameStop and asked about my Amiibos anyway. Both my Ike and Toon Link are delayed until next Friday on estimate. I just better GET my figures, I've been waiting too long for an official Ike figure and it's finally within my grasp!

Raven Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Preordered it from Amazon.co.uk on Thursday 22nd January. It was dispatched on the same day, despite the official release date being Friday 23rd, and it was delivered on Monday 26th. £10.50. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=amiibo&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Aamiibo About £10-£11 is the RRP for an amiibo, so Lucario going for £16 despite the problems people have in America getting him seems tolerable enough to me. Not sure when Sonic wil be released, though. I've got him preordered through GAME the same day I preordered Ike on Amazon, but I've heard nothing from them.

Kirie Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Assuming UK dates are the same as mainland Europe, Sonic should be coming out on the 20th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
