The latest updates about the fourth wave of "Super Smash Bros." amiibo figures come from France, Australia and New Zealand. 

A Redditor posted yesterday that the release of Wave 4 of amiibo figures in France will happen sometime next month. The information reportedly comes from several sources who posted on a number of French forums as well as from an employee of Micromania, the French version of Gamestop.  

"For the wave 4 of Amiibo, it will be on April 24. 6000 Charizard 6000 Wario (like sonic & megaman ) and 2000 for the other four (Robin, Lucina, Ness and Pacman or the same amount as Shulk, Dadidou and MK). These numbers are for the retailers (in this case, for Micromania only), not the whole country," Redditor Feuillejaune stated. 

The Redditor also said that more than 100 amiibo are planned at the moment, and Nintendo will also restock on some of the popular ones like Rosalina, Little Mac, WiiFit train and Villagers in their country before 2015 ends. However, the Reddit post specifically mentioned that the sources only talked about the Wave 4 release in France, which is why it is uncertain whether those in North America will also experience the same on the given date. 

Meanwhile, Nintendo of Australia announced that Wave 4 of amiibo will also come out in their territory beginning April 25. Based on the announcement posted at Just Push Start, Australia's Nintendo will come up with six characters that can be used to play in the multiplayer brawler. A couple of "Fire Emblem: Awakening" characters will be introduced, which include Robin and Lucina. Also, the main protagonist in "EarthBound" named Ness will also make its smash debut, alongside Wario, Pac-Man, and Charizard. 

Information about the release of amiibo figures Wave 4 in the U.S. is expected to be announced soon.
