I can still order them online, but I think they get sent from nearby targets
Nintendo just announced a new series of amiibo cards (series 5)

I really hope that the cards are actually Raymond, Judy, Audie, and all the other popular villagers that people are obsessed over. If it turns out to be true we can finally say goodbye to those who love to overcharge for these villagers on certain trading sites.

Yeah, Target sold out Online again. I don't know how much they're getting a week or anything. I'm actually one of the leaders at a Target store, and we only got the one shipment of all of them, and then we got another package of one of the series. I think it was Series 2. But that's all we've ever gotten.
I am actually mad over series 5 I’ll be honest. It took me forever well not really forever but it took a crap ton of money to complete my card collection. Normally I really would really be excited, but as I’ve lost a TON of work time since March over issues with a herniated disc and JUST had spinal neck disc Replacement surgery last week, I won’t even be going back to work for another 4 to 5 weeks so this girl is hella broke. I was the one who was at Game Stop at midnight for the happy home designer release And I bought two boxes of series 1 As my other two Besties Also got some and we all combined our efforts to complete our collections. I also bought a box of series 2, 3 and 4 when they debuted. Same goes with welcome amiibo. This time I do not have the money to do that. And if they re-introduce welcome amiibo into series 5, I’m going to be furious. So Now that I’m done with that rant, ha ha Ha, I’m hoping they’ll introduce some new villagers since we only got eight with new horizons and we got WAY more on new leaf. I am assuming they’re going to put the new 8+ the new NPC’s plus the other current NPC’s As with series 1 through four they were 17. That leaves 83 spots minus the eight for the new guys from the current is going to equal 75 spots. If they go back and give us some of the older Villagers that do not have amiibo cards yet and that total from my count is 74 (not including filly, Holden and the crossovers) but I’m kind of hoping they don’t give us all of those as I’m really really really hoping they’re gonna give us a few more new villagers but that’s the count I have as of right now. There’s also a possibility of the crossover Villagers, being made into cards but I have a feeling they might do those eventually in A separate set like they did with a Sanrio Or just allow the actual physical amiibos to work with that.
I'm so excited, I hope we get even more villagers!
Hmmm... assuming the old villagers will return and/or new villagers are introduced, I seriously hope they would show up at camp and mystery islands as well. Because if they are not, I would honestly be mad if they are locked behind a paywall.
I can understand crossover characters being exclusive because they are all from other franchises. But the others are all from the AC series.

Same thoughts. It would be their smartest move as well since Villager Hunts are some of the most watched streams and videos.
I’m more interested in finding more about this than any of the roost/Holiday stuff. Assuming there will be 100 cards, what will they consist of aside from the obvious 8 new villagers and new special characters? I feel like it only makes sense to add some more villagers to the game. They also may include the 50 Welcome Amiibo villagers in this like some people are saying above, especially if their original series isn’t being restocked. Even then, that likely still leaves quite a few spots open in a series of 100. I would like to see some of the e+ Gamecube villagers come back, so maybe it will be a mix of that and brand new villagers.
Also, if they are going to add a bunch of new villagers, they should increase the 10 villager per island limit and increase the size of the island in some way as well.

Forever wishing Iggy would come back 
I doubt he’d be one of the potential returning amiibo villagers, but it would make my entire year if I could have him in my ACNH village. He was one of my first villagers ever

I would much rather have new villagers be shown than older villagers that we've so many times. I would not mind if its special NPCs that never got their amiibos like Daisy Mae, CJ and Flick, but still.

I just need Reneigh's card for my wife mostly. I'm a bit leery on how hard these will be to get honestly but I'm excited that a new set is coming out all the same.
I don't really want a new series 5 with 100 villagers. I would rather have it like be the new villagers to NH. Simply because I know scalpers are going to screw everyone because they suck wet farts. So I would rather have to only buy one pack (if I am lucky) and not feed into these parasites.

I think I'm done with collecting amiibos unless it's a specific one I want, the scalping and limited supply has gotten out of hand and I'm still bitter about the Sanrio release. But I do like the idea of a new series if only for the chance at some new villagers in the game (maybe even a new species!) and the 8 NH villagers getting their own cards.
They seemed to have skipped the Welcome Amiibo caravan cards as a set (which should be the 5th set.) A smaller set doesn't seem to qualify for being series 5 if it's less than 100 or just a few cards, but don't know. Hopefully there's some info soon.

aaaaaaaaahh
id love to see a new series with Raymond, Sherb, all the new villagers that don't have cards yet, but im also hoping for the return of some old gamecube villagers (i miss Aziz so much 
) or a new species/personality type we've never seen before. but then they'd have to give us more slots on our island. twelve or fifteen instead of ten maybe. i have a lot of empty space.

I'm really excited for this. I'd love to get Flick's amiibo as well as the new villagers - especially Raymond, Reneigh, and Judy.
I also strongly suspect that the RV amiibos will be folded into Series 5. I've been collecting Amiibos for various games since 2014, and I've started to get a feel for how they prioritize what to make when in their Amiibo factory. They seem to have limited factories that make Amiibo, so they carefully schedule reprints. If they are going to make new amiibo, they do so after reprinting all the older amiibos from that game that they intend to do. Once it was finally Animal Crossing's turn for Amiibo reprints, they made reprints of series 1-4, then they released Sanrio worldwide. That was normal enough. Their next typical pattern should have been to re-release the RV ones worldwide. But they didn't. Instead, they skipped that and made another printing of series 1-4 to restock those. I have never seen Nintendo make a third reprint of something before doing a second reprint of the Amiibo from the same game. To me, that means they don't intend to reprint the RV ones. But if they fold the RV Amiibo into series 5, that would explain why they skipped out of their usual order. Also, the RV amiibo I've scanned don't offer furniture when you use them like the Sanrio ones do. Instead, in Animal Crossing New Horizons the RV amiibo behave like the Amiibo for the Series 1-4, which makes sense if they intend to release them in a series 5 that will match the others in looks as well as in how the Amiibo function.
So they'd have the new NPC, new outfits for some of the old NPC, the 8 new villagers, and the RV Amiibo...there's still more slots left to fill to reach the typical 100 cards! I'll be eager to see what they do with that. I'm not sure if they would have enough slots left to have room for entire new personalities, but they could certainly add more Sisterly ones, as right now there are so many fewer of those than of the older personalities. Or they could make Amiibo cards for some of the old crossover characters, or make new crossover characters. They could even bring back some of the more popular older characters. I feel like since they showed the Roost in that last video they are listening to what fans are asking for. Maybe there was a gap between the video announcing the cards and the direct this month so they could get fan input and take that into account when making the new Amiibo. They've asked for fan ideas on which characters will get new Amiibo for Smash Brothers and other games....
