1. Let Kungawo's marbles be $$ K = 4 $$.

2. Junior has 8 more than Kungawo:
   $$
   J = K + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12
   $$

3. The total number of marbles that Kungawo and Junior have is:
   $$
   K + J = 4 + 12 = 16
   $$

4. Amy has twice as many marbles as Kungawo and Junior combined:
   $$
   A = 2 \times (K + J) = 2 \times 16 = 32
   $$

Thus, Amy has $$\boxed{32}$$ marbles.
Amy has 32 marbles.
