Sony needs their own Amiibos, this is why

Well, for starters, Sony would immediately get crucified for "ripping off Nintendo", even though this figure gimmick has kind of been a thing long before the Amiibo's were even announced. For another, it's a gimmick. Most people only buy them for the sake of collecting them because Nintendo is apparently terrible at meeting demand. Sony would be better off just making action figures, or something. Plus, what games could they really apply to, besides a potential PSASBR sequel? I wouldn't mind a sequel to that, but frankly, little Amiibo like figures are one of the last things I'd care to see as an add-on.

Well they could always make proper action figures, Revoltech seems pretty popular as a figure series in Japan, I even own a set of Evangelion Rebuild series Eva's on my shelf and are damn good quality with godlike posability, Sony could go for that route in which they could both be used for games but offer more for teens and maybe kids to pose them in, Ammibos are only really used for games and looking good but you can't really do much with them in terms of posing/toying with.
