The Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker amiibo bundle was confirmed for Europe last month. It’s expected out across various territories in a matter of days.

In the UK, it’s looking like the bundle will be exclusive to Argos. That’s based on the retailer’s latest catalog – see the image above.

Update 2: Charizard, Wario, and Silver Mario still appear to be up. Others are gone.

Update: Shulk is gone, but Ness, Charizard, and Wario are in stock here. There’s also a bundle here (Shulk, Dedede, Pit, Silver Mario, Ness).

GameStop currently has the Shulk amiibo in stock. Get yours here. It likely won’t last long, but hopefully a couple of you will be able to get an order in!

A short while ago, Amazon announced that it will be the exclusive retailer to be offering the Palutena amiibo in both the U.S. and Canada. A representative for the site has since shared some additional information about what to expect.

The rep stated:

A few things to keep in mind, that we learned before wave 4:

1) We want to avoid resellers as much as possible, so she’ll be limited to 1 per customer.
2) We’re going to let everyone know when she’ll go on sale ahead of time.
3) That time will be during “normal business hours” (No 2:30am releases).
4) We learned from wave 4 that the time “windows” aren’t much different from just announcing a time, so I think that’s what we’ll be doing.

Also, we have a lot more stock than we’ve had of any other amiibo yet. I know we’ll end up selling out, but I think it’ll be closer to the Splatoon 3-pack or Charizard or something rather than Lucina/Robin in terms of how long they’re available (~15 mins after available). If you show up on time, you should be able to get one.

The same rep added, “I know that there’s a lot of concern, but these are not going to disappear instantly like Lucina/Robin. I’m confident that if you show up when they go on sale, you should be able to get one.”

Amazon will be selling the Palutena amiibo on July 24. More specifics are due on July 22.

There will be only one way to purchase a Dark Pit amiibo in Canada. Best Buy has obtained exclusivity for Dark Pit in the country, meaning no other retailers will be selling the figure.

Best Buy’s Reward Zone Gamers Club Twitter account confirms:

Dark Pit was previously confirmed as a retailer exclusive in the U.S. Palutena also arrives on the same day, and should be available at all stores.
