Amazon will sell Wave 4 Amiibos in 30-minute waves
Since their inception, Nintendo's Amiibo figures have been hard to collect. The demand has been high, with high amounts of pre-orders even crashing the Gamestop online servers. To help combat this, Amazon will be selling Wave 4 Amiibo figures at set times.In an email, Amazon listed the times that each Wave 4 Amiibo figure will be available when sales open up tomorrow, May 29th. The email states: "Throughout the afternoon of Friday, May 29, we'll be posting each Wave 4 Amiibo figure individually within the following time windows. Each will become available for purchase at a random time during that time frame. Mark your calendars for the following times this Friday!"

Amazon continues: “We’re limiting each Amiibo figure to one per customer, and we’ll be disabling 1-Click Ordering. Additionally, it’d be helpful to make sure you’ve updated your credit card and shipping information to help you move quickly through the checkout process.”
“We’ve seen a tremendous amount of interest for the latest wave of Amiibo figures and we’re always working with Nintendo to get our hands on more. While we cannot guarantee that every customer who wants an Amiibo will be able to purchase one when they become available on May 29th, we are doing our best to make sure customers have an opportunity to purchase their favorite characters!”
In the US, Ness is a Gamestop exclusive, while Jigglypuff is a Target exclusive, which is why they are not on the above list. In the UK, a shipment of Splatoon Amiibo figures were stolen, forcing many pre-orders for that set to be canceled. You can check that out here.
