I’m not really sure what’s going on here. It’s definitely some sort of bizarre glitch!
Thanks to Alex for the tip.

The amiibo design for Ike underwent some changes compared to the initial reveal. As shown above, there’s a noticeable difference between the prototype version and the final design. I guess that was to be expected!
Thanks to Shinun for the tip.

An official female Villager amiibo doesn’t exist at present. However, with some creativity, reader Donizetty managed to switch up the figure’s gender. And so we present… the female Villager amiibo. The custom-made amiibo continue to impress!

This Marth amiibo apparently comes with an extra head
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Random, Rumors | 12 Comments
Okay, I’m sorry. I just had to post this. It’s part hilarious, part stupid. But here you go! It’s a Marth amiibo… with an extra head. The sheer strangeness of it all is one reason why I’m marking this as a rumor.
If you want this particular amiibo, you’ll need to fork over $1,500. I can’t recommend anyone doing that. That being said, I wouldn’t be entirely surprised to see it sell!

Update: Or not – Target now says Rosalina & Luma amiibo pre-orders will return this month

Update: I’m not sure what’s going on with Target, but now it’s looking like pre-orders won’t be returning after all…
@90pll Thanks for asking! The Rosalina and Luma Amiibo will be a Target exclusive. We aren't offering pre-orders on this item.
— AskTarget (@AskTarget) January 2, 2015
@90pll The Nintendo Amiibo Rosalina & Luma will be available in our Target Canada stores. But no preorder and quantities will be limited.
— AskTarget (@AskTarget) January 3, 2015
@Jervaaay Thanks for your interest! We aren't currently taking pre-orders and don't have specifics right now on future availability.
— AskTarget (@AskTarget) January 3, 2015
Target opened pre-orders for the Rosalina & Luma amiibo during two extremely brief periods last month. The retailer later said that online reservations were closed and consumers would need to head towards their local stores in hopes of nabbing a figure.
Now we’re hearing something that contradicts this a bit. The official “AskTarget” has indicated that Rosalina & Luma amiibo pre-orders will return sometime this month before it goes on sale in February. Fans are advised to continue checking the website.
@Jervaaay Yes the Rosalina & Luma amiibo Figure will be available for pre-order sometime this month! Keep checking back! Thank you!
