Exciting news for fans of both LEGO and The Legend of Zelda! LEGO has just opened pre-orders for its new set, themed around *The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time*. This set, called *The Final Battle*, invites fans to create a scene from one of the series’ most iconic moments.
The set captures Ganon’s castle as it crumbles during the climactic battle. Imagine building a detailed model with Ganon, Link, and Zelda as your key characters. LEGO also includes fun features, like revealing Ganondorf with a button press. Plus, you’ll find three recovery hearts hidden in the rubble, just like in the game!
Included in the set are four minifigures: Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, and a brick-built version of Ganon. There’s also a transparent fairy figure of Navi, who doesn’t say her famous line, but you can picture it in your mind. The set comes complete with Link’s Master Sword, the Megaton Hammer, and a couple of Ganon’s swords. With 1,003 pieces, it’s priced at £100 in the UK.
History shows us that LEGO’s collaboration with Nintendo isn’t new, but it certainly keeps evolving. Previous sets have celebrated iconic franchises like Pokémon, pulling in fans from different generations. In fact, after the Pokémon sets debuted, resale sites like eBay saw a surge in listings for the exclusive LEGO Pokémon products. This indicates a growing trend among collectors who are eager for unique and nostalgic items.
Moreover, in recent years, toy sales for nostalgia-driven products have skyrocketed. According to a recent report by The NPD Group, the global market for collectible toys, which includes sets like these, is witnessing double-digit growth annually. Fans, both young and old, love to celebrate their favorite franchises through building and collecting. It’s a way to relive their favorite moments and share them with new generations.
With LEGO’s new Zelda set, fans can not only build but also immerse themselves in a meaningful piece of gaming history, combining creativity with nostalgia. For those ready to dive in, pre-orders are available directly from LEGO’s official site.
