It’s been known that in order to collect all the amiibo Nintendo plans on releasing, consumers will have to do some scrambling from store to store. If those are your intentions, you’ll need to include a trip to the giant yellow price tag to your plans.

The second instance of a retailer-exclusive amiibo has been revealed — Meta Knight from the Kirby franchise, and it’ll only be sold at Best Buy. According to Best Buy’s corporate site, it’ll debut in early 2015.

Shulk from Xenoblade Chronicles was the first amiibo announced as exclusive to a particular store; GameStop has the rights to that figurine. It’s a trend that’ll most likely be prominent, especially if the popularity of amiibo takes off as Nintendo seemingly expects it to. At least prospective collectors can take solace in knowing that there are plenty of amiibo deals out there lighten the financial strain.
