The Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak amiibo situation is still a mystery in the US [Destructoid]

Importing and the collector’s edition (for one out of three figures) are two of the only options at the moment
Right now the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak amiibo hunt continues to be a mystery in the US, with no retailer sightings beyond the collector’s edition: which comes with the lone Malzeno figure.
The others (the Canyne Malzeno Palamute and the Felyne Malzeno Palico) are nowhere to be found in the region.
Here’s a quick recap of how the Sunbreak amiibo situation is going worldwide:

You can pre-order them now on Play-Asia or Amazon Japan, but they’ll be shipping in late September/August depending on the retailer: some users are reporting that Play-Asia is canceling select pre-orders
Some UK/EU regions are reporting that they are available at retail, and are all out now with the release of Sunbreak itself

Again, the US release is a complete mystery outside of the Malzeno figure being locked to the collector’s edition. As the Amiibo News Twitter account points out, the US site removed the amiibo category altogether. The current guess is that they’ll be GameStop releases, with no open pre-order period: but having spoken to multiple GameStops in my region, they are not listed in the system yet, and managers have no idea when they might arrive. If they do come to GameStop, it could be a free-for-all “order in store” situation.
As usual, if you’re a collector, consider importing! Given the current global supply chain issues they might end up becoming a rare little trio: or, things could smooth over and there could be plenty of stock. Even before 2020, it was always a gamble when it comes to amiibo.
[Update: A Twitter reader has pointed out to Destructoid that there are CPSIA ratings for English release figures (Malzeno, Palamute, Palico), which provides some hope.]
