Amiibo release date: Ryu coming Feb 27

More Amiibos may be coming in the first two months of 2016.

Starting off with the one that has a more uncertain release date for now, fans may soon be able to get their hands on the new Ryu Amiibo. 

According to Geek Snack, the European retailer Media Markt has just listed a release date for the Ryu Amiibo on its Swedish website. According to the listing, the Amiibo figure starring the iconic "Street Fighter" character is set to launch on Feb. 29. 

It's worth noting that the release date of the Ryu Amiibo is still unconfirmed, so the legitimacy of the listing is still questionable. Until Nintendo officially indicates that the Ryu Amiibo is launching on Feb. 29, fans will simply have to wait and see if the listing turns out to be true.

As for Amiibos that already have official release dates, fans can look forward to four more "Animal Crossing" figures arriving soon.

Nintendo has just announced that the four new Amiibos will be released by Jan. 29 in the United Kingdom. The four new Amiibo figures are Blathers, Celeste, Kicks, and Mr. Resetti, MCV UK reported.

All four of the new Amiibos are being released in the wake of the arrival of two games in the "Animal Crossing" franchise. Those two games are "Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival" for the Wii U and "Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer" for the Nintendo 3DS.

Other Amiibos that are set to hit the market soon include one new figure and one other returning item.

The returning item will be the Gold Mario Amiibo that was launched in North America earlier in 2015, and this time around, the figure will be on sale again in Japan starting Dec. 17.

Dec. 17 also marks the debut of the Lucas Amiibo in Japan, so collectors in that region will have a lot to look forward to. The Lucas Amiibo will make its North American debut on Jan. 22, 2016.
