Most who wanted this amiibo probably already own it but Nintendo Store has it on pre-order for £10.99 and will be released on November 17.
This amiibo unlocks a really cool gear in Splatoon so worth getting for that if you didn't already unlocked it by now.

Hahaha suck it scalpers, was hoping Nintendo would come to their senses and just release the thing separately.

Hopefully they'll do the same for Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water and release the game as a regular edition. I seriously can't find any retailer still selling PZ:MoBW for £50-60 the scalpers have took it up to £90+.

You can use it on Splatoon to unlock 20 challenges which will grant you a suit, weapon and mini-game while on Yoshi's Woolly World you can use Squid's costume to play as.

they can be used in various games. We have four amiibo in our house, you can train them up in Smash Bros. for Wii U, in Mario Kart some amiibo will unlock racing outfits for your Mii to wear, in Yoshi's Woolly World they unlock knitting patterns for the Yoshi's, Super Mario Maker uses them in a neat way and in Splatoon these particular amiibo give you extra challenges, I believe which can get you exclusive armour, though I may be wrong there. They're not really essential but we've enjoyed them over multiple games, even if it's just a fun extra.

it came back in stock on game and Nintendo store for a full week after it came out. No chance of a normal edition release. USA are only getting digital only!

The European USK copy has a UPC code so there's definitely a possibility of a regular release and this is a game worth owning. All depends if Nintendo is willing to give it said release.
Btw, the American gamers aren't very happy they were shunned from getting a physical release.
