About Digby amiibo

Digby is Isabelle's twin brother, a small white-and-yellow Shih Tzu who runs the Happy Home Showcase building in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and onward. His character beat is being the brother-character to the franchise's most-popular NPC, which means he gets compared to Isabelle constantly and most fans don't remember he exists.

Most franchise NPCs don't have a 'overshadowed by their more-popular sibling' character beat. Digby does. He's the franchise's quietest NPC-family-side-character.

He pairs with Isabelle, Tom Nook, K.K., and the broader Animal Crossing NPC cluster. Most fans display Digby next to Isabelle specifically because they're related, but the figure on its own is the franchise's most overlooked NPC figure. The figure carries Digby's existence in plastic, which is the figure-form representation of his role in the franchise: present but quiet.
