Sakurai said there won't be a female Byleth Amiibo, at least the subtitles did in the French video.

They said they can't make F. Byleth for some reason. Might be a budget limit? Likely why we only got DQ11 Hero and inevitably Steve only.

I haven't bought an amiibo in ages but you better believe I'm getting Banjo.

That jiggy base on Banjo's *chef kiss*

Can't wait to buy that one and Terry. Shame there's no female Byleth, I would've bought one for her.

The jiggy was a masterful idea. I personally wish they used his "name card" pose from the trailer for the art and amiibo. I knew they'd have a stand due to the pose, but this was the coolest way to work around that.

Those are third party licenses, I can at least get why they wouldn't be all encompassing.

Fucking Corrin got two amiibos though, there's no way F.Byleth wouldn't have been worth making too.

Banjo-Kazooie is literally "pre-order the second they go live" for me. Literally my most wanted amiibo ever. I've waited so long for this! :D

I really wish they'd stop doing "male is default" for Fire Emblem characters...

Anyway, Banjo looks great, as expected.

I really really really hope they go back and make female Byleth. I didn't think they'd unveil 3 amiibo. I thought it'd be B-K and Terry and then the next presentation would unveil male and female Byleth together.

To think this could've been an Edelgard amiibo in another, better reality.

But that BK one is mine as soon as it goes up.

I'm so getting that dope Terry amiibo.
The texture of his clothes are so good, and while amiibo all looks really good since quite some year now, I still find that the human's faces are meh (which is fair, little head, so you can't make it look really good given that amiibo are still fairly low budget for how good they are), but Terry with his pose and hat kinda hide his face so he'll look really good.

Whaaaat, they aren't making a femByleth? That's very disappointing :( She's the only version of the character I play in both Smash and Three Houses.

I'm shocked they chose M!Byleth. Do they have data on who was chosen more often or is this another case where "male is default"? I rarely see any male Byleth mentions, which is why this seems weird. I even played as him and I still thought, "Him?

I'm sure by now you've seen the first reply that addressed this, right? There isn't going to be a Female Byleth amiibo.

Was it? I missed it...

It'll be cool if so :D (And the best selling amiibo ever)
They don't need to "confirm" this (but yes, Sakurai explicitly said this in the video). They will make amiibo for every single DLC fighter. There was never any doubt about that once they started.

Since their designs are so simplistic and both characters being massively popular, I think there's a decent chance that Steve and Alex will share a single Amiibo. Kinda like how Mr. Game & Watch came with some different poses to make up for his simple 2D look.

The official site is already promoting both of them together. It also does it with Byleth, but with their more complex character designs it'd be impossible for them both to be on the same Amiibo.

that would give the impression they're a double-character fighter, like Ice Climbers. It's just gonna be steve with a pickaxe or something

They are gonna be heavy as an amiibo :U
Or are amiibo hollow? 🤔

Male Bylethe for me. But I'm surprised...no female Bylthe, I thought it was a lock.

It'd be nice if they made Steve and Alex as a single amiibo similar to ice climbers, since the figure would be literally the simplest one yet if not. Even with G&W they made different poses to justify the price.

Here's BK's Totaku figure for comparison:

Yeah, I saw this one for cheap once but decided to wait for the smash one instead.

Maybe if they aren't both in the same stand, they both come in the box and you can replace one with the other in the stand, I think that's what happened with Mr. Game & Watch.
