I've noticed this too ... Amiibos were overstocked big time this holiday, the Animal Crossing ones are not selling very well at all and even the Mario 30th anniversary and Splatoon ones and restocks of older models are all over the place.
I think what's happened is the Nintendo die-hards, who are most 20-30+ year old men have bought a ton of Amiibo over the last year that some fatigue is setting in as most people have most of the Nintendo characters they wanted. Kids who are supposed to be buying Amiibos don't have a Wii U and buy Lego, Disney, or Skylanders instead.
