Update (9/30): Bumped to the top again. Lucario, Shulk, and Greninja are now in Best Buy’s DC warehouse. It shouldn’t be much longer before you can purchase these figures at the retailer.

Nintendo will be releasing the first set of Animal Crossing amiibo cards in North America next week. If one GameStop store is anything to go by, they should be pretty well stocked.
