Remember: every single character in Super Smash Bros. should be getting its own amiibo, so it shouldn’t come as a major surprise that we’re able to see some roster inclusions that don’t have figures yet. Of course, the only way to get access to amiibo like Game & Watch and Duck Hunt is by manipulating the game.

We’ve posted shots from the Hyrule Warriors art book before, but Destructoid has picked out design that looks particularly interesting. It’s not entirely clear what’s going on, though it seems like Link is cutting off a Bulblin’s arm. The woman in the design was featured in at least one more piece of finished art.
