Lots of Zelda amiibo back in the UK store…

Latest 2 Smash Amiibo now on UK Nintendo Store for UK buyers.

Holy CRAP, someone on Amazon UK is trying to sell the Sephiroth Amiibo for £49.99 already even though you can still get it from UK Nintendo Store for £12.99

@Bunkerneath
Yeah, I saw that days ago from before the Nintendo UK Store listings went up.
What I want to know is, why did the Nintendo UK Store take four days to get their listings up?? Why no pre-order process, notifications, or anything really?

Their store has been mishandled in a lot of ways that makes it difficult to trust and rely on them for securing an order, but I'm just grateful I was able to get my Sephiroth and Kazuya amiibo and maintain a complete Smash Bros amiibo collection.

@RupeeClock its My Nintendo Store, they can do what they like, and their customer service is a joke see this thread:

@Bunkerneath
Yes, I've had all sorts of payment issues with them in the past as well.
Primarily, the odd issue of not being able to use a debit card when accessing the site on desktop, making pre-orders only possible on a mobile device like my Android phone (as they do not accept PayPal on pre-orders).

There was also the time I had to place an order with a debit card that would expire before the item's release date, and my replacement card had not yet arrived. This actively made it impossible to pre-order the item from their site and I ended up getting it from GAME instead; the Metroid Dread collector's edition and amiibo.

UK buyers.

Pyra & Mythra No.92 Double Pack amiibo (Super Smash Bros. Collection)

£25.99 Release date: 21 July 2023

Up for pre-order on MyNintendoStore now.

Looks like Sora is starting to go live in the us. Already sold out at Target, Gamestop and Best Buy.

For those that don’t want to pay scalpers but are willing to pay shipping preorders are up on Amazon Japan. I’m putting in a preorder but will cancel if I lock in a domestic order. Still cheaper than scalpers lol.
Edit: got an in store preorder at gamestop.

@Ryu_Niiyama Don’t count on GameStop preorders too much though…

Anyone know where I can get Bug Man amiibo for the regular $15 (USD)? I keep seeing it for around $30, but that is odd for a single amiibo. Am I just completely wrong on the price?

@CaleBoi25 : Some amiibo figurines tend to be more expensive than others, but according to GameStop in the US, the retail price appears to be US$15.99. Can't you just buy it from them? They seem to have it in stock at the moment.

@CaleBoi25 about half my amiibo collection comes from gamestop. I have only had a delay once. Still got those amiibo.

If you are in the US, Target has Big Man in stock for shipping.

@Ryu_Niiyama @Sisilly_G Huh, those didn't show up in my search, but when I typed in "Big Man amiibo GameStop" it did... odd. Thanks!

Street Fighter 6 cards up on US GameStop for preorder. Just snagged mine.

Yunobo is available in store (got mine from best buy).

@Ryu_Niiyama Same here. They had a lot of them. I wonder why we weren't able to preorder him?

So, who is planning on getting any of the new amiibo? I definitely want the Rosalina one, and maybe either Mario or Biker Samus, too. They're pretty expensive, but the good news is that means they won't sell as quickly, so I can get them at my own pace!

@CaleBoi25, I might get the Mario Galaxy amiibo when I eventually get the Mario Galaxy collection (when I have a gap in my gaming schedule, who knows when that will be). I might get the Kirby Air Riders ones too, though those are less likely even though I want the game they're based on as soon as possible.
