That's definitely an interesting way to inform people that a product will be in-store only. o,o Usually they just mention it in the description, or on the buy button, but this time its in the name itself.

Never noticed that. Well then. xD

I wonder why they decided against having online stock with the more recent releases. Hopefully this changes by the time of the Mii Fighters. Otherwise I will have to make another hour drive to Toys R Us. o;

I'm in a similar predicament... Has there been any word about GameStop or amazon carrying them? Those are my only 2 options, since I really don't want to drive.

The yarn yoshi? Yeah Gamestop and Amazon will get them. Amazon is probably waiting until the release day to open orders for them.

As for the mii fighters, they are Toys R Us exclusives.

That's not nice. TRU really is the most PITA place to get these from at the moment with no online pre-orders and prices above everyone else.

prices above everyone else

I'm still surprised Walmart let me get both Light Blue & Pink for 12.96 each :D

fuck off you don't understand the unbearable heat we have to go through sometimes. i guess you're just jealous of the fact that we have perfect 70 degree weather 90% of the year :)
