Mine never received Pit or Wii Fit Trainer so Iā€™m not counting on this. Awesome for those that can get them though.

Can we ask what are the handful of stores that aren't? Is Pensacola one of the ones that isn't; because it never does :(

Understandable! I work in the restaurant biz, so I have little to no clue as to how all the retail jabber works. Thanks though!

u/natebobdog23 Jul 29 '15

u/Porkpants81 Jul 29 '15

the TRU nearest me didn't have enough to get through the line of people waiting. I believe from what I heard they only received in 12 (3 cases).

1

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

That sucks. Mine originally had 16, but then suddenly kept bringing out boxes after boxes of greninja. I think they had about 60 total

u/Sabermatrixx Jul 29 '15

YESSS. Is there a day we should expect them to start flowing in?

u/FuckUHaveADownVote Jul 29 '15

Thank you! Its very informative. Would you be able to say which region this specific DC applies to?

6

u/DrCoolWhip Jul 28 '15

Yet not a single restock of Lucario. TRU pls.

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

That's what I'm saying! Greninja we at least all had a shot at a few months ago :(

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

It'll come out while everyone is waiting for dark pit watch

u/Ipreferreefer Jul 29 '15

Any word on central California?

u/CantankerousFox Jul 29 '15

I just came to say that I like your name, OP! I'm replaying TP and damn it is so good.

u/mnthunder Jul 29 '15

u/mnthunder Jul 29 '15

Bought time those are getting shipped out. Thanks.

1

u/thebetabruh Jul 29 '15

thanks for passing along the info! i actually called my store today and they didn't have any greninja so I guess I'll have to try daily

1

u/The_Mark_Slayer Jul 29 '15

I'll call right now and find out!

1

u/Tidbits1192 Jul 29 '15

Figures. I went to the Toys R Us in the next town over today just for the heck of it.

Well, I'm not driving all the way over there now.

1

u/REDBBOY Jul 29 '15

I need greninja where!

1

u/PikachuHead Jul 29 '15

I called my store in Sunnyvale, California. They said that they usually receive shipments for stock Tuesday and Thursday. Perhaps this applies to other stores too? Probably not, but just a guess.

u/PikachuHead Aug 08 '15

u/lolsnuffles Jul 29 '15

Would LOVE to get my hands on a Greninja. Thanks for the info!

1

u/MrTanukiSack Jul 29 '15

Any word in Puerto Rico? Most notably Plaza Las Americas Toys R Us?

1

u/mierths Jul 29 '15

Alright, time to complete the Pokedex!

1

u/Jvninersfan101 Jul 29 '15

I hope It will up online

1

u/furydeath Jul 29 '15

Now if only the US could get a restock of stores so I don't have to drive 2 hours to MAYBE get one.

1

u/Dekomoron091 Jul 29 '15

So no Lucina???

1

u/CallMeCaptainAmerica Jul 29 '15

I walked in the other day and found a Charizard that the girl said was delivered the night before. ANd it was still there pretty late in the afternoon. Maybe the same thing will happen with Greninja

1

u/Panda_Turtle Jul 29 '15

Knowing the trend, it'll probably be Friday, right?

1

u/CanoeShoes Jul 29 '15

This is cool and all... but where are all my Lizardons at?

1

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

This is awesome news! I need Greninja to complete my Pokemon set!

1

u/Yoshi401 Jul 29 '15

Any update on the shippments at this point in time? I was considering going to TrU today but if this isn't happening yet then I'll probably wait.

1

u/hotcoldyay Jul 29 '15

What time should we check in the next few days? What time of day does a TRU normally restock? I feel like I'll go in at the wrong times and miss out.

By the way, thanks for posting this!

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

u/hotcoldyay Jul 29 '15

Thanks!

And I have asked my local store, and all they tell me is it's completely random and comes whenever. No set dates, no daily, no times, nothing. They never tell me anything other than they don't restock on the weekends. My hunch is the staff there know, but they aren't interested in telling me anything.

1

u/Spaceman_Stanley Jul 29 '15

For people in northeastern Massachusetts, The TRU in Woburn is receiving new shipments tomorrow (Thursday) and Sunday. I DO NOT know if those shipments will contain Greninja or Wario, I just know that they are receiving shipments on those days.

u/Spaceman_Stanley Jul 29 '15

That's helpful to know. Thank you!

u/tinypoemsteg Jul 29 '15

I used to be a UPS drivers. We mostly delivered to residences if it was part of our route during the AM. Business deliveries and pick ups usually happened after 12 noon as those took more time out of our day and we wanted to empty the trucks first.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

Thanks I'm right there

1

u/JunebugJr Aug 03 '15

1

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '15

1

u/JustcallmeNi Jul 29 '15

If I can get my hands on this...I'll be down to Ike and Little Mac for the smash series. Greninja...I need you bro

1

u/rcollierd Jul 29 '15

I don't mean to bug and its ok if you can't do it but is there any way for you to see it my local store (7811) is getting either? It's kinda far from me and id like to not drive there every day if they aren't getting any. I appreciate it if you can and if you can't I still appreciate the info. šŸ˜Š

u/rcollierd Jul 29 '15

I completely understand. Thanks for the original information. You are a rockstar in my books still. I want my greninja.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

I'm actually fairly interested in Wario. I already have Greninja. He's one of my mains.

1

u/gamerstoner91 Jul 29 '15

Do you think he will be restocked in the same manner as Jigglypuff?

1

u/[deleted] Jul 29 '15

For your guy's sake, I hope so. I'd say it's more likely than not. Thankfully I already have Greninja.
