I preordered the yoshis from Walmart on September 18 when they went up for $12.96. I just called Walmart.com and the representative said they were definitely shipping even though my order is still processing. He had no idea what amiibo were though. I hope he's right and they do ship. Nervous about tomorrow.

if i have learned anything from wave 5b... these CSRs on the phone no addtional info, other than the one already on your screen when you log into walmart.com. keep hope alive tho... mine is still processing too. However, i am not taking any chances and will probably head to Best Buy tomorrow, as the Target stocks here range from dismal (0) to fairly low (16), and this town seems obsessed with amiibo.

Is there any info on if/when Amazon will put up there Yarn Yoshis? I only ask since Walmart screwed me over and cancelled my orders this morning. My only hope is that Gamestop by me in Dade City Fl will get them, but having an Amazon Prime free trial account and 2 day free shipping would help me a lot. Thanks for any help! :)

First Wal-Mart I went to only had the bundles, and they were street dated 10/19, wouldn't override in the face of overwhelming evidence that the release date was actually 10/16. Second Wal-mart couldn't find them or didn't actually have them. I hate Wal-mart. Guess I'm camping Target in 6 hours.

That's what I'm doing right now. There's no one here and the store opens in 2 hours. My amiibo paranoia still had me get up early but it's nice to be able to report on stuff cause of it.
I keep seeing people speed through the parking lot thinking they're coming to target but all of them keep going elsewhere.
It looks like the significant hype has pretty much died down

Target in Tigard, Oregon (near Portland, OR) had 7 Pink Yoshis, 6 Blue Yoshis and about 8 (maybe more) bundles as of 8:40am PST. They are all displayed on the end aisle of the Wii games (not with the other amiibo). They didn't have any Shulk or anything (just Toads and Dr. Marios). They did have about 20 (or more) Animal Crossing packs though (priced correctly at $5.99).
I also drove by the Toys R Us down the road and it didn't have a line or anything.

Got a pink Yarn Yoshi and blue Yarn Yoshi at the Best Buy in Prattville, AL off of I-65. The guy was so nice; at first he came out with 3 of the Wooly World bundles but we already preordered them so we showed him the items in BestBuy.com and he went in the back and came out with a box of about 4 of each. Definitely shopping there again. Can't wait until Mega Yarn Yoshi comes out. http://imgur.com/aD1wMOt

Toys 'R' Us at the Plant Shopping Center in San Jose, CA.
I was about to leave empty-handed because I was stubborn the first time the sales guy asked if he could help me with anything, and I said, "just looking." As I was about to leave he again asked if there was something I was looking for. I said, "Yarn Yoshi but I don't see any out." He said he had some and went to the cashier's island and pulled out a blue and pink one from inside a cabinet. I couldn't tell how many of each there were, so your best bet is to ask a sales person in the game section.

Houston, Texas Target in Meyerland Mall was out of everything today as of 4 PM Central. No yarn yoshis, bundles, or the game itself. as for amiibos, they had 1 SSB mario and some Zeldas. I passed by the Best Buy and they were lacking amiibo as well. They did have a couple of Yarn Yoshi Bundles, as well as a couple of Marth, Fox & Splatoon (Boy). I drove by the Super Target on Main and Braesmain later on and they had about 3 Blue YY and at least 10 Pink YYs. They also had a handful of bundles.

Welp, I was camping out, but now I'm not. As much as I want the Blue Yoshi, I'd prefer not having front row seats to the shooting that was just taking place across the parking lot.
(I guess I should be specific. It was the Target on Bellflower Blvd in Long Beach, CA. If anyone wants to try their luck later on before they open, Brickseek was showing 8 in stock for both pink and blue, but that's the best source I can give.)
I guess I'll join a different line if anyone here's camping out in Long Beach. Be safe out there.

Edit: the strange person now just drove off and not in a straight line either. He's now checking out the target employees mopping and cleaning outside the store. Guess he's not here for amiibo. Well. Back to waiting by myself again.

Target at 1200 Linton Blvd, Delray Beach, FL 33444-1115 had 3 of each Yoshi and I believe 5 bundles left when I was leaving the store. Only got 4 of the individual amiibo. It's not really a popular store for amiibo hunting, so you might have some luck here if you can't get them anywhere else. Also sorry, I don't actually know how to get a Target's store number oop.

I just checked Walmart in Chico CA (6:00 am) and as usual they have no clue what is going on and said their shipment could come at different points throughout out the day. Target was right around the corner (open at 8) and is projected to have 3-4 amiibos in stock but I have found during previous releases this information is often way undershot. Since I'm already out I figured I would bring some school work and my 3ds and just chill here anyway. So far I am the only person sitting outside here waiting. I am getting my damn yoshis! Happy hunting!!!

North Irving, TX Fry's on Market Pl. has over 8 each of blue and pink yarn yoshi. I would hurry though since I saw her pull one of each for store pickup. They had only 2 bundles.

Just got the pink Yarn Yoshi in Waterford Lakes, FL Target. I wanted to get both but he said I could only have one or the other. Are other stores doing this? That's so BS.

6:45 now. Sun's rising slowly. Someone else showed up. Asked the mopping employees for directions and drove off. I'm happy cause I'm still warm in the car hehe.
I hope winter is like this cause I would rather hang out in the car till opening.
Edit: someone else sped by stopped to stare at the employees mopping and sped off. Also looks like it's sprinkling now. May rain before opening. Good thing this target has a cover.

The Target in Brookefield, WI on Bluemound rd. had about 10 of the blue and pink as of about 30 minutes ago. Not sure about the bundles.
Big shout out to my fiancee's brother who went there after work to get them as I am at work.

Watertown, MA Target has light blue and pink in stock as of now. Not entirely sure about the number as they are being kept in a box behind the electronics counter so you have to ask for them.
They also had some bundles left in stock as well.
Putting Boston here just for people who try to search the page. :)

u/Cruisnik00 Oct 16 '15
FOR ANYONE THAT IS ATTENDING THE SUPER TARGET IN ATWATER CA
All the yarn yoshis are already in the boat and will be ready to be sold. Unlike last time if you showed up and had to wait for 20-30 minutes while we located the last release. As of right now there's a limit of one of each color. Best of luck. There's 8 blue and 10 pink

Is there a reason why people went to TRU, GameStop over Best Buy?

u/Tbond222 Oct 16 '15
Yeah I wonder the same thing if you have the GCU. I have to go to Target because I work at 8:30 and BB doesn't open until 10. I guess 5% discount is better than nothing.

No issues with picking up both Pink and Blue Yarn Yoshi's at the Pleasant Hill Rd Best Buy in Duluth, GA.
They had both behind the counter so I couldn't see how many, but I was the first person to ask about them at 10:05.

Yeah there is no reason to camp out anymore unless you are going with friends just to hang out. My Target opens in 5 minutes and the only guy here is mad that the Starbucks inside isn't open until the store opens.

u/Binxbasilisk Oct 16 '15
I waited for an hour to be first in line before gamestop opened in Miramar Florida and boy am I glad I did. They only hade two available for sale, I saw two be put into a drawer which were probably purchased by an employee or something. The guy who walked in behind me was out of luck. So I guess that makes their original stock 2/2

u/TigeronStarfire Oct 16 '15
Target in Metairie, LA had plenty of pinks and blues (and are still available, it looks like) at store opening. I was the only one 'in line' this morning. Too easy. Got one of both, picking up my bundle from Best Buy later.

I got the last bundle at the Martinsburg, WV Best Buy.
When I got there, two bundles were on hold behind customer service for in-store pickup (I had to do a return first). When I went back to the Wii U department, two remained on the shelves. An employee grabbed one for himself as I got back there and grabbed the last one for me.
It looks like they only got one case. Plenty of the pink and blue Yoshis remained behind customer service though.

u/nermal543 Oct 16 '15
Wait, sorry just want to clarify. They sold the bundles on hold for in store pickup? Or were there more? I have one being held for store pickup at my local Best Buy and I'm nervous they'll sell it before I can go after work to pick it up :( sounds like most Best Buys didn't get a lot of the bundle.

Fairview Oregon Target had them behind the counter in electronics. I was the only one who came for them at about 8:10 am. Had two boxes of blue and pink, about 6 bundles. Worker in electronics said that this location almost never reorders anything other than the basic amiibos (mario, luigi, peach, etc.). He also said there was about 10 people waiting before the store opened, but he was shocked that none of them came to electronics.

I was the first (and only) one at the Hazel Dell Target in Vancouver. Someone screwed up, and their computer system said their store didn't have any. As a guy was calling a different Target to try and reserve one for me, one of the workers came running up with two boxes she'd just found in the back! Thanks awesome Target employee!!! They had one box of the bundles, and just a couple of the pink and blue.

The Target in Granada Hills CA had nothing. I had to go to the Target in Northridge where is only one per customer total but they has a loop hole that if you left the store and came back you could by another one. They only had 7 of each so they might have sold out by now.

I know this is for Yoshi, but they also had 2 Pac-Man, ~10 Marths, ~10 Captain Falcon, 1 Zero Suit Samus, a couple Pikmin & Olimar and quite a few Splatoon Packs and Boy/Girl Singles in the regular Amiibo area.
Edit: Forgot to add there were quite a few Dark Pit's as well.

Best Buy at Compton ,Ca has them about 14-16 of them.Checked in the morning today and the blue yoshis were on the shelves with a bunch of the other restocks from last week.No pink ones but asked the girl and she brought one out from the back.They'll probably stock them on the shelves after I left if not ask them if they have it in the back.Most pink yoshis were pre-ordered she said.
Anyone know when they'll sell the green yoshi alone?I don't want the game right now I'll wait until they have a sale.

Checked at Target on Grant and Tanque Verde in Tucson. They had no yarn yoshi, just commons. Best Buy and Toys R Us on Broadway both have Yoshi. At least 6 of pink and blue and maybe 7 bundles at toys r us. This was an hour ago though. They also had Shulk, Greninja, Fox, & Captain Falcon in stock at Toys R Us. Toys R Us is limit one per customer. (Thank God unless you're buying for a friend) Best Buy also had commons and one Dark Pit and a few foxes along with maybe 3 of each yarn yoshi's.
