Yes but that's CERTAIN not to even ship for 2-4 weeks yet. Since some people that ordered them on Amazon before already received theirs, I'm taking the gamble on Amazon.Apparently, it's available online for Target. For how long, who knows, but here they are: http://www.target.co...x_1_1&x=12&y=17.

Honey, I'm sorry, but I think you're misunderstanding... The shipping method that you chose takes 3-5 days to arrive from the date of shipment. Go back, and read your order details again. It will tell you that it will not ship for 2-4 weeks, so estimated shipment date is between August 5th and 23rd. Just because you chose the shipping method of arrival in 3-5 days does not mean you will get it in less than a week from now, it means that it will arrive less than a week from when Target ships it to you from their warehouse. It would be impossible for you, visiting the same page that everyone else is, to have special options or a different wait time. Please don't get your hopes up, I'm certain you just misread or misunderstood the shipping method as the day it will actually arrive to you, and that's not correct. It just indicates how long it will get to you AFTER they receive it in their warehouse and AFTER they ship it to you. It will not even be in stock for 2-4 weeks yet, (anyone can see that on the page you look at to order them) so it would be impossible for you to get yours in 3-5 days.Mine said 5-3 days, I payed extra for it so they are sending mine earlier!
I'm sorry if this sounds mean, I just don't want you to be devastated when it doesn't arrive.

Amazon is out of stock though, to be delivered when available. When would that be?Yes but that's CERTAIN not to even ship for 2-4 weeks yet. Since some people that ordered them on Amazon before already received theirs, I'm taking the gamble on Amazon.

1. I hope Bandai does not overlook the Northeast Ohio area (where I live) and sends the units to the local distribution centers pronto (because I'm not gonna want to wait too long!).
2. Most of the figures being released first seem to be "girly"; even the Mametchi figure has a rainbow face plate! I hope they release more "boy-friendly" figures and carrying cases later on.
3. It would've been nice if they had included a full figure or something with the Tama-Go (though I suppose that would create less of a need for the extra purchase, and thus less profit).
What do you think?

I live in the Northeast Ohio area, too. Is there any reason to think they would overlook us?I have a couple things to say:

Ya, I can't wait to have one in my hands though. I hope to spot them in my store over buying them online. Its kinda like a difference between waiting for a possiblity it will arrive sometime soon or having it in hand in store. (Waiting for it to be shipped and sent to you verses In Hand, with a bit of waiting) If that last part made since.

Here is the link to everything being sold on amazon. I think it's all by the same seller. They even have the figurines in stock:

Well, the figurines are $7.00 in the stores, so they're trying to make a little bit of profit, and honestly priority mail is a flat rate fee of $4.95 so the shipping isn't that much of a rip-off. But besides that, it's someone not actually a part of Amazon. The actual Tamatown Tamagotchi toys were still being sold by Amazon.com at the time of my posting and the one after me, and Amazon was selling them in association with Target.com/IPC which is just the Target corporation. Apparently they only had a limited number of orders they were allowed to take, because you are right, now their option is gone. People should keep a look-out though because when I went to search, BEGUM9's items came up first but then you had to look to see the link under the item "2 new from $19.99" like you can see (at time of this post) underneath the carrying case, and it will show you the link to Target and then BEGUM9. So, maybe if you keep a lookout you can either order them for the regular price on Amazon/Target (same difference, really) and wait the couple of weeks or you can pay the extra $7.00 for the Tamago and the extra $2.00 for the figurine and have them as soon as whatever shipping method you're willing to pay for gets it to you.I checked Amazon today, and they do have the figurines, but I think they're overpriced. They're $8.99 apiece PLUS $5.24 shipping. It isn't being sold by Target or anything, the same seller is also selling the Tama-Gos themself, but those are also a bit overpriced. I wonder where he/she got their figurines.....
