Amiibo, Nintendo’s popular figures, have invaded store shelves across the world. While popular characters will always have merchandise modeled after them, these toys have also allowed under-appreciated faces to receive some of the spotlight, such as Chibi-Robo. And more are on the way, per the latest Nintendo Direct.
Still encumbered by Breath of the Wild? Good news: Link is getting three new figures based on his appearances in Majora’s Mask, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. The legend will continue on June 23.
Cloud, Corrin and Bayonetta are joining the battle on July 21. Furthermore, their “Player 2” variants bring in their alternate costumes: Advent Children‘s Cloud, female Corrin and the “A Witch With No Memories” costume from the first (and recently re-released) Bayonetta.
Interestingly, the second Corrin Super Smash Bros. amiibo was basically leaked earlier this month, but the other two were unforeseen. Frustratingly, some of these will be retailer-exclusive.
Also, as noted, new Splatoon and Pikmin amiibo are coming, too.
