Update: As if to lovingly prove us right, Nintendo France has shared this tweet to confirm a European release on the same day. North America is very much expected to follow suit.
Original Article: Nintendo has revealed that the lovely Octoling set of amiibo for Splatoon 2 will land in Japan this November.
To celebrate the release of Splatoon 2's Octo Expansion, Nintendo had previously announced a three-in-one pack for Octoling amiibo, with Boy, Girl, and Octopus figures all available. This new tweet below reveals that the figures will become available in Japan on 9th November, either as that triple set or individually if you prefer.
No western release date has been confirmed just yet, but amiibo figures often release on the same day worldwide so we'd expect to see them in other regions on the same day (or at the very least in a similar time frame).
Will you be getting your tentacles on these?

Totally buying these! Can’t wait!
Must have
I don't usually use the gear and I don't use the photo mode.....but I know that I'll end up buying all three of them
Got them preordered, along with the three announced Smash characters. Either interest has tanked or Nintendo has plenty of planned stock, because I was able to easily secure them on Amazon.
I don't even have a Switch, but I do have a full Splatoon amiibo collection. I will be buying these!
@thesilverbrick I think a bit of both maybe? They seem to have just enough stock for everyone to pre-order for a long time, but then afterward they are difficult to find and the prices sky rocket.
I find their ears unsettling
Neeed
I'll pick up one of them. It'd be nice if they could re-release some of the older amiibo again though, like the Squid Sisters ones which are $100+ for both or the last Wave of Smash U amiibo.
WHAT CLOTHES ARE WE GETTING DARNIT!?
Already preordered! Can’t wait!
Now I just need to preorder the Smash Bros ones, if that’s even still possible.
Already preordered these, can't wait to get them!
Be nice if this was a bundle of sorts with the Octo Expansion DLC. Like for an extra £5 or £10 you get the figures and the DLC for a money saving price.
Hey, the physical version of Xenoblade 2's story DLC is giving away the season pass after all...
In my opinion, Octolings looks really better than Inklings. Same for the amiibos.
And so the agonizing wait begins...
@HipsterInkling
And missed opportunity for an Octo-ber release.
Preordered anyway.
Aww they're cute!
