Trivia

 * Marth is currently the 4th best selling amiibo in Japan, and the 8th in Europe.
 * Marth, along with Villager and Wii Fit Trainer, makes up the "Holy Trinity" of Amiibo. They are referred to as such because of their extreme rarity in stores. However, Nintendo announced that in May 2015, Marth amiibos would be coming back in stores
 * Marth, along with Villager, are the only amiibo to get a redesign. They are both used as the UK & Japan restock.
