Rare Amiibo Collectibles Set To Return To Stores
Good news today for Amiibo collectors in search of sold-out items. Nintendo has come out to say that they are re-stocking their harder-to-find characters that have been admittedly unavailable due to the unexpected excessive demand for the miniature figures. Two variations that we’ll see more of in stores will be Fire Emblem’s Marth and Ike in addition to the former Best Buy exclusive in North America, Meta Knight of Kirby fame. We can expect influxes of these Amiibo items in the European market later on this year. For now, we leave you with this statement from Nintendo themselves on the matter:
“We’re trying to meet the demands of our fans and consumers by increasing the amount of Amiibo we manufacture and ship to retail. We may continue to see consumer demand outpace supply levels for certain characters at times, but we will do our best to prevent that from happening. As our library of Amiibo continues to grow, some figures will be easier to find than others. We are constantly looking for the opportunity to re-issue Amiibo and are already making plans to bring back some currently out-of-stock Amiibo figures.”
