Well they do say Expected/Probably "voraussichtlich". My guess is they had no dates set when the pre-orders went up.
Edit: Got an email back from their customer support:

Thank you very much for sharing this! I just checked my preorder and the dates have been accordingly updated.
It's looking very promising again

During launch week.
Scandinavia-GAF:
Webhallen has all the new amiibo (Smash wave 4B. 5, 6. Splatoon, Yarn Yoshi) up for pre-order. They take an extra 100 kr for the Yarn Yoshi though, so it seems that they're gonna be more expensive. Thankfully I got them pre-ordered for the normal amiibo price at CDON

I take it they don't ship internationally?
Sweden, Denmark and Finland only, I'm afraidI take it they don't ship internationally?

Ah well. Next time
I'd prefer to get UK so I'm not stealing other countries' stock, but I really want the Pink Yarn Yoshi.
How did you guys find these, they don't come up if I search for them
They tweeted the link to Splatoon LE.
No idea where the Yoshi url came from.
The strangest thing about the Yoshi url is that it is marked as splatoon...
Saw this pop up yesterday on twitter, seems like an error. I don't see why the Dr. Mario amiibo of all should be compatible with Splatoon.
Yep, pretty odd. But the everything else seems about right. And as opposed to the standard edition of the game they also show the real boxart + that green yarn Yoshi.
Pretty sure these items will pop up normally soon enough though. This usually happens with pre-order items. Hopefully the rest of the Amiibo's will follow soon.

Could be an error, could be a weird unlockable or could be that other amiibo will unlock cosmetics in Splatoon and Dr Mario was just noted first.

I assume Dr. Mario = Mario Mario = Smash Mario => all Marios have compatibility with Splatoon and unlock FLUDD Mario or something wild.
Dr. Mario being the only one listed so far could be explained by his page being new and thus having the latest info tagged already while the other, older ones will need to be updated still.
After seeing the Yoshi Wolly World Amiibo...I think I need to buy more of these amiibos. And now my question: How IikeIy is it to get a Toad Amiibo here in Germany? I know...probabIy it's too Iate and weII...I visited two saturns and two gamestops today and was onIy abIe to get a perfect painted viIIager...but the SMB coIIection seems to be rarer than expected. So, what options do I have?

"We are unable to add the specific item to the basket as it is temporarily out of stock."
Thanks anyway.

The Yarn Yoshi amiibo look great I never would have imagined they'd experiment with other materials with the amiibo, or go outside the standard size for them. Remember when they showed off a Yarn Yoshi at E3 last year? Maybe they were teasing it then, but looking for images of it, I found out GAFer Neiteio actually predicted they'd use them as amiibo too.
I already got the Smash Yoshi for my brother at Xmas, and then the Mario series Yoshi for myself last month. He's not one of my favourite characters so I doubt I'll invest in another, especially if they all have the same function, but very cute regardless.

I don't think these amiibo's have the same id, otherwise you would unlock a Mario npc in Smash when scanning the dr. Mario.

That doesn't matter.
Toon Link = Link
Sheik = Zelda
Smash Mario = SM Mario
in other games (HW, MP10). The game just needs to know that all Marios are Mario or all Links are Link.

Right, had a look on the system for everything.
Splatoon - Game + Amiibo bundle is available to place a deposit on, no individual Amiibo SKUs yet.
Yoshi - Same as Splatoon. There is also a SKU for a bundle of the LE game bundle with the pink and blue Yoshi Amiibos but it isn't a deposit code and probably doesn't work yet.
Smash - No deposit codes for any of the wave yet, there are free pre-order SKUs for Palutena, Jigglypuff etc. but since they aren't deposit codes like every other Amiibo I doubt they'll be actually functional.
Ness appeared as being compatible with MK8 for a short while when he was first shown. Ness isn't among the amiibo costumes that are coming alongside the next DLC.
I pre-ordered all of Wave 4 with MediaMarkt here in Spain, but I'm not getting my hopes up. They allow "preorders" for everything. I remember going there to see if they had any Toads, the ones they did were already reserved but they let me put my name down for one if it came in.... still haven't gotten a call lol
Thant sucks.
I keep checking amazon uk, but it's not there yet. i haven't missed at have i. ?

It's like they don't even want to sell their products to their own compatriots anymore.

So...is everyone else also now sitting with a browsing open with each Amiibo open in a tab ready to pre-order?

I can only assume they overcharge for international shipping, and are making more money off desperate yanks than Brits/Europeans.

I think it's something like $15 per amiibo.
Another question, are they really starting to sell Mewtwo and Lucas? Is there even a release date confirmed?

3am? Ugh. I think I'm going to stay up but damnit.

They only mention the game, not the amiibo's though so it seems worth trying to me.
