Here's a list of the unlocks.
Breath of the Wild Archer Link:
Drops rare bow-type weapons, plus food and other materials.
Breath of the Wild Horse Rider Link:
Drops a unique horse saddle and food, plus the chance for high-end weapons.
Breath of the Wild Zelda:
Drops a chest containing the Hylian Shield, a very rare item and the best shield in the game. Also drops plants for you to cook with.
Breath of the Wild Guardian:
Drops a chest containing rare weapons and items – including the chance for ancient arrows, super-powerful arrows. Also food.
Breath of the Wild Bokoblin:
Drops a chest containing high-power club-type weapons plus meat to cook with.
Super Smash Bros Link:
The first time you scan it you get Epona, Link’s horse from Ocarina of Time. On subsequent scans you’ll get a selection of food items and a chest that’ll either contain a piece of Twilight Princess Link’s costume (as seen in the video above) or a random piece of weaponry.
Twilight Princess Wolf Link:
This amiibo spawns Wolf link as an ally – he’ll fight alongside you in combat. How many hearts he has is determined by data saved to the wolf in Twilight Princess HD for Wii U.
8-Bit Link:
The 30th anniversary 8-bit Link amiibo spawns a bunch of barrels. Smash them for food and rupees. He’ll also drop a chest containing a piece of the classic Link tunic or weapons.
Ocarina of Time Link:
Scanning this ridiculously iconic version of Link will drop a bunch of raw meat for you, plus a chest which will either contain a piece of the OOT-era Link costume, the biggoron sword, or other basic weapons.
Wind Waker Link:
Either the Smash Bros ‘Toon Link’ or official Wind Waker amiibo will work for this. Both drop a bunch of fish plus a chest that will contain either a piece of the Wind Waker armor, the sea-breeze boomerang, or other gear.
Wind Waker Zelda:
The 30th anniversary Wind Waker Zelda amiibo will drop a bunch of plants for cooking, plus a chest containing a shield – if you’re lucky, the Hero’s Shield from Wind Waker.
Smash Bros Zelda / Shiek:
Like the Wind Waker Zelda, the Smash Bros. Zelda drops a bunch of materials for cooking and crafting plus a chest that can contain rare shields or bows. The best luck will see Zelda drop the Twilight Bow from Twilight Princess – hands-down the best bow in the game.
Smash Bros Shiek:
Smash Bros. Shiek has a chance to drop Sheikah weapons as well as random materials. If you’re extremely lucky, the Shiek’s mask armor headpiece will drop.
Smash Bros Ganondorf:
Ganondorf’s amiibo doesn’t have the nefarious impact he had in Twilight Princess HD- instead he just drops a bunch of materials for cooking and crafting plus a chest that can contain rare weapons – the rarest of which is the amiibo-exclusive sword of the six sages.
All non-Zelda franchise amiibo:
Any amiibo that aren’t of a Legend of Zelda series character will still scan into Breath of the Wild just fine – but instead of giving you specific items, each amiibo will drop a random selection of materials including foodstuff, random loot, or even the occasional gemstone. Every single amiibo on the market is compatible with Breath of the Wild in this way, even the Animal Crossing amiibo trading cards.
Data mined amiibo:
In addition to all the above amiibo as featured in the game, data mining of the game appears to confirm items related to seemingly unreleased amiibo. The items point to a Fierce Diety Link armor set from Majora’s Mask and an associated amiibo, a Twilight Princess Link amiibo and a Skyward Sword amiibo with the relevant iteration of the green tunic and the goddess sword as a rare drop.
