The Legend of Zelda is in the spotlight at the moment, all thanks to the upcoming movie, set to be released in April 2027, and ofcourse in Nintendo fashion, they want to milk it as much as they can, and I don't blame them, it's an incredible piece of IP.
Well, it seems they have now partnered with Hasbro to release an array of The Legend of Zelda action figures, with their first 3 being teased via their official website.
These will be "premium 6" scale figures" designed and inspired to look like the iconic characters, featuring over 20 articulation points and accessories such as weapons, fabric capes and more, for dynamic posing and allowing collectors to pose their collectables the way they want.
Link himself features a Hylian shield, an interchangeable Zonai power hand and a Master Sword. Ganon comes with Gloom Sword, scabbard, and an interchangeable sword grip hand. Zelda comes with a Decayed Master Sword and an interchangeable sword grip hand.
"Ever since its first title, released in the U.S. in 1987, the Legend of Zelda series has mixed exploration and discovery with action and adventure. Now, with 6-inch-scale figures from Hasbro, fans can finally bring to life their favourite game moments and cut-scenes. Build your kingdom with The Heroes of Hyrule Legend of Zelda collectibles" states Hasbro.
The statues vary in price, which is surprising. Link and Zelda will retail for $27.99 at Hasbro's store, whereas Ganon will retail for $42.99. Which made me double check Hasbro's description of this, because that's a large jump in price, and I did notice that their description states "6-inch scale figure comes in at an imposing 7.5 inches (19 cm) tall", so what is it, Hasbro, 6" or 7.5"? The latter would explain its price increase, but we have to wait for Hasbro to update their product page.
