Nintendo reveals Young Link amiibo: GameStop leak gains credibility

Nintendo just confirmed a Young Link amiibo for 2027, and that gives the reported GameStop database leak about upcoming amiibo a lot more weight.

Earlier reports said GameStop’s internal system had added more than 20 new amiibo placeholders for 2026 and 2027, with prices ranging from $25 to $60. Only a few names were visible, and two of them were Young Link and Mineru Construct. Now we know at least one of those entries was real, because Nintendo has revealed Young Link and Young Zelda amiibo for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Switch 2. Both are scheduled for 2027.

Nintendo says these figures are part of its Zelda 40th anniversary rollout. That same lineup includes the Ocarina of Time remake, launching on November 5, 2026, plus a Zelda-themed Switch 2, a matching Pro Controller, a Link and Epona Lego set, and concert-related content. In the game, tapping the new amiibo unlocks Link masks based on the original Nintendo 64 look.

Those earlier GameStop leak reports also listed Mineru’s Construct for September 17, 2026. If you collect amiibo, this is probably one to watch, even if Nintendo and GameStop still haven’t confirmed the full list.
