Got my first amiibo today, Donkey Kong.

He rocks. I'll be getting more.

When is Sonic supposed to come out? Is he going to be in the same wave as Mega Man in February?

Yup.

So as far as I can tell, these are the (non-secret) characters left to come after Feb:

Olimar
Charizard
Greninja
Robin
Pac-Man

And questionably (they were secret on 3DS, but not on Wii U)
Bowser Jr.
Jigglypuff
Ganondorf
Ness

...Quite looking forward to these ones personally.

I'm absolutely sure that I saw zero of Villager anywhere in the Ann Arbor area. I asked the GameStop employee to see if they had any, and even though it said they were supposed to have shipped, they received zero. I seriously hope that these alleged three will actually have reprints, etc. Wii Fit Trainer isn't that interesting to me nor is Marth, but I just hope that some of the kiddoes that want some of these aren't scooped because a reseller wants to make a quick buck.

Seriously though, Marth and Villager are selling for $125 together. Nearly 5X their retail price.

I think I'm in for:
DK
Mario
Fox
Captain Falcon
Jigglypuff
Pikachu
Kirby
Yoshi
Ness
Samus
Sonic
Ganondorf
Zelda
Sheik
Luigi
Peach

I think the US version of Marth is going for almost $100 by itself!

Yup, it's been going up steadily since it went out of stock on Amazon.

If I find any locally, I will pick them up and offer them to Racketboy (not gouge) for the collectors among us. Resellers BEWARE!

I've been doing the same. Unfortunately, I have never actually seen Marth or Villager in a store. I purchased both of them online and sadly my Marth got a little crease in the top of the packaging.
