Nendoroid Zelda: Breath of the Wild Ver. (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’ll be taking a look at…

Nendoroid Zelda: Breath of the Wild Ver.

From the popular game “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild” comes a Nendoroid of Zelda, Princess of Hyrule! She comes with three face plates including a standard expression, a smiling expression and an angry expression.

For optional parts, she comes with the Royal White Stallion, the Sheikah Slate, and the Hot-Footed Frog that appeared in the Captured Memories scene when she offered it to Link. The Sword that Seals the Darkness, also known as the Master Sword, is included as an additional optional part for Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. (sold separately). Be sure to add her to your collection!

“…open your eyes…”

The curious Princess of Hyrule, Zelda, has been transformed into an adorable Nendoroid!

Her bright blue outfit and beautiful braided blonde hair have been perfectly recreated!

▲She’s holding the Sheikah Slate, a key item in the game’s story! ₍₍(∩´ ᵕ `∩)⁾⁾

Looking from the back, you can see her pouch, belt and the detailed pattern of her blouse have also been captured in Nendoroid form! ♪

▲Even in Nendoroid size, the figure is packed with detail! ☆彡

She comes with three face plates including her standard expression shown previously!

An angry expression is included as well! It looks perfectly when you pose her with the Sheikah Slate! ◎

▲From her furrowed eyebrows to her tightly clenched mouth, this expression really shows off her determination.

Her third face plate features her gentle smiling expression!

That kind, lovable expression…! (*˙˘˙*)

As you probably noticed, the Royal White Stallion is also included!

Real cord has been used to make the reins, giving them a realistic look and making them easy to move when posing! ★

Saddle parts to display Zelda riding are interchangeable, making it so you don’t have to change any parts on Zelda to display her on her horse! ( ・ㅂ・)و̑

Ball joints are included at the mane and tail, making for easy, nuanced posing.

The front feet also feature articulation, allowing you to pose the horse as though in the middle of walking. ♪

▲This is what the standard saddle looks like. ◎

A Hot-Footed Frog optional part is also included! ♪

You can pose her holding it in her hands, so enjoy recreating the Captured Memories scene when she offered it to Link! ～|•’-‘•)و✧

Zelda is great on her own, but…

…display her with Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. or Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. DX Edition to recreate all of your favorite scenes from the game! ( ⸝⸝•ᴗ•⸝⸝ )੭⁾⁾

▲with Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. DX Edition

Nendoroid Guardian (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

February has already come to an end! How does time go so fast!!! We already have all sorts of lovely products planned for announcement in March, and today I’m going to be taking a look at one of them…
Nendoroid Guardian!

From “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”, comes a Nendoroid of one of the ancient machines created by the Sheikah – the Guardian! The Guardian’s iconic eye can be moved around, and the head part can also be rotated 360° allowing you to faithfully recreate the movements from the game in Nendoroid size!

Optional parts include effect parts for the powerful beam attack as well as a translucent sheet to recreate the GAME OVER screen that many fans will remember seeing after facing the Guardian! In addition, an Ancient Bow is included to be used together with the separately sold Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver.! Be sure to enjoy the cute Nendoroid sized version of the Guardian in your collection!

An ancient relic of Hyrule’s past, transformed into a Nendoroid!

From the game with fans all around the world, “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”, comes a Nendoroid of the rather troublesome enemy known as the Guardian!! The complex patterns and unique legs that allow it to walk freely in any direction have all been captured in careful detail in Nendoroid size!!

▲ The slightly rugged appearance has also been captured with the sculpt!

Plus if we look on the underside…

The details on the bottom have also been included in amazing detail, and the legs are articulated for adorable Guardian movement!! ٩( ᐛ )( ᐖ )۶

The different sections of the legs can each move individually allowing for various different posing opportunities!

▲ It’s really fun to move around in different directions!

Speaking of moving…

The Guardian’s eye can also move around!!

I think this is one of the most mobile Nendoroids ever to be released, so I’m sure everyone will have great fun moving it about once it releases!! ♪

▲ Guardian looking sad at his disconnected leg.

In addition, the Guardian also comes with effect parts to display it firing the powerful laser beam attack from the game!! ★

▲ The entire eye part swaps out to display the beam! (っ’ω’)っ))

▲ The head part can spin around 360°! ♪

In addition, this translucent sheet is also included!

A GAME OVER Screen!! (ﾟ´ω`ﾟ)
(I’m sure there are many players who have seen a similar screen in game!)

The letters appear to be standing out thanks to the dark clear sheet that you place in front of the figure!!

You can easily use this with just the Guardian, or you can combine it with the previously released Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. to bring out the atmosphere of the game even more!

In fact, Nendoroid Guardian even comes with an additional weapon for Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. to use: the Ancient Bow!

▲ Ideal for posing Link in battle against the Guardian!

Be sure to add the ancient machine to your collection!!
Nendoroid Guardian!

Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver. + DX Edition (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I can’t believe that the first month of 2017 is already coming to an end…
WonFes is really just around the corner now!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver.!

From ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’, the latest addition to the popular The Legend of Zelda series comes a Nendoroid of the main character, Link! He comes with two face plates including a smiling face as well as a shouting expression for combat scenes.

Optional parts include a large selection of items including his bow and arrow, quiver, sword, sheath and shield allowing you to recreate various situations in Nendoroid size! The Sheikah Slate that appears in-game is also included for a huge selection of parts to choose from! Enjoy the brand new design of Link in your collection with Nendoroid Link: Breath of the Wild Ver.!

A Nendoroid of Link from the latest Legend of Zelda game!

The game hasn’t even been released yet but it is coming up very soon! From The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild comes a Nendoroid of Link!! ☆

◆◆ The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 3rd Trailer ◆◆

▲Nintendo Official Channel

Those lovely big eyes, the mostly blue outfit, pointy ears and round shield… Link has been captured so perfectly in Nendoroid size!♪

Along with the gentle smiling face you can see above, he also comes with a shouting expression which allows for a more combat-orientated scenes!

He comes complete with his sword which can be displayed held like this and can also be sheathed away on his back! ヽ(*´∀｀)ノ

The shield can also be stored away on his back, and the center part of the shield can be removed in order to attach the stand while the shield is on his back!

In addition, I get the feeling that his bow and arrow is going to be rather important in this game, and this they are included together with the quiver at his hips!

You can even pose him first pulling out and arrow like above, and then nocking the arrow and then getting ready to fire like below! ヽ(ﾟ◇ﾟ )ﾉ

▲ A special hand to hold the bow and another
for the arrow is included for quick and easy posing!

Another item that has appeared in the trailer already and is included with the Nendoroid is none other than the Sheikah Slate! ♥

(I can’t wait to find out all the things the Slate will do in the game !!)

But that’s not all!! We wanted to give Link way more optional parts, so this time we are also releasing a DX Edition which will help bring out the atmosphere of the series even more!!

The horse even features articulated front legs and his own little stand for a more dynamic pose like the above photo! ε=(｡・д・｡)

I can’t until I can gallop around the open fields in game with this reliable mount by my side!! The horse also comes with special attachment parts which allow you to have the horse carry Link’s shield for him! ♪

▲ The reigns are made from soft faux leather!

Plus another amazing item is also included in the photos above, which is of course his hood! Doesn’t he just look adorable when wearing it! (*´ｪ`*)

figma Link & Zelda: Twilight Princess ver. (The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess)

Strength, intelligence, courage… I hope I’ll be able to gain at least one of those traits eventually!

Hello everyone! My name is Isono, a member of Max Factory’s planning team! Today I’m going to be taking a look at these products that went up for preorder today!

figma Link: Twilight Princess ver. &
figma Zelda: Twilight Princess ver.!

(*Each sold separately!)

From The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess comes a figma main character and hero of the series Link together with the Princess of Hyrule, Zelda!

They’re both so amazing!! So… beautiful!!! With just one quick glance at the figures you can tell that the sculpting and painting of both is so amazingly detailed!! Let’s take a closer look at them one-by-one! Ladies first!

figma Zelda: Twilight Princess ver.!

▲ This first photo shows off her dignified expression as well as the sword that she holds at the ready!

▼ Let’s also take a look at the back…

She looks beautiful no matter what side you choose to look at her from! The somewhat mysterious atmosphere about the Twilight Princess version of Zelda has also been captured so nicely!

The first thing that really stands out about figma Zelda is the lovely colors! The paintwork on her accessories, dress and skirt almost all make use of a pearl paint which gives her outfit a silky, gorgeous shine. That said, the shine is by no means a glittery effect, but more of an elegant gleam that creates a lovely dignified look at captures Zelda beautifully!

By the way, although you can’t see them in these photos, Zelda’s pants and boots have also been faithfully sculpted and painted underneath the dress!

▼Another thing to note is the intricate changes in color all over the figure!

The arrows all point to areas that have been painted with the utmost attention to detail!

▲ Next up we have her smiling expression!

Such a gentle smile that just overflows with both kindness and beauty! The next point I want to make everyone aware of is the accessories and ornaments on her outfit… the shoulder armor, crown and various other parts are all made using 3D sculpting! The fact that they are made this way allows the more intricate patterns and shapes to be preserved!

▲ The Bow of Light she used in the battle with Ganondorf is also included!

The bow also of course features pearl paint! The bow and arrow itself has also been beautifully sculpted from top to bottom creating stunning beauty that you would normally never associate with a weapon! The skirt is also articulated allowing for a wide range of different posing options!

figma Zelda: Twilight Princess ver.!

She comes with two expressions: a standard expression and smiling expression as well as two accessories: a sword and the Bow of Light!

She will be available for ¥5,600 (Before Tax)!

Next up, we move onto the hero of our story…

figma Link: Twilight Princess ver.

▲ This confident expression with tense eyes always leaves such a strong impression!

The build of his body has been captured so nicely showing off just how handsome this version of Link is!! The overall sober tone of colors used makes him look a little more grown-up compared to the previous figma figures of Link! Let’s take a closer look at his heroic outfit!!

▼ The arrows here show the chain mail armor made with 3D sculpting!

You can see each of the little chain links creating a lovely texture for the armor!

▼There us also a joint located in the hat, which allows it to be moved around both horizontally and vertically!

▲ Next up we have a face with clenched teeth!

This glaring expression is perfect for combat poses and instantly makes Link look more skilled with his weapons! The series classics have been included with the Master Sword and Hylian Shield both included!

▼ The Master Sword can also be sheathed on his back!

▲ A powerful shouting expression is also included!

This makes for a very daring and resolute appearance that looks great with dynamic poses like the one above!

To summarize…

figma Link: Twilight Princess ver.!

He comes with three expressions: a standard expression, clenched teeth expression and shouting expression as well as two accessories: the Master Sword and Hylian Shield!

He will be available for ¥5,093 (Before Tax)!

But that’s not all!!

Once again we have a special DX Edition that comes with a variety of bonus items for way more posing options that bring out the Legend of Zelda universe!

▲ The Ordon Sword and scabbard used by Link at the start of the game!

▲ The Hero’s Bow and Arrow and Hawkeye!

▲ The Ball and Chain!

▲ And the Clawshot!!

Plus the Clawshot comes in both an opened and closed form for different posing opportunities!

All of these amazing items are included with the DX Edition!

· Ordon Sword and Scabbard
· Hero’s Bow and Arrow
· Hawkeye
· Ball and Chain
· Clawshot

Just look at the full line-up of parts all lined up with the DX Edition!

figma Link: Twilight Princess ver. DX Edition

Everything above will cost just ¥6,000 (Before Tax)!

If you’re not sure which version to get, I highly recommend saving up just a little more for the DX Edition! The extra parts add so much play value and different variations that are so much fun! v(‘ω’*v)

Both of these products will be available as standard products in stores as well as from the GOOD SMILE ONLINE SHOP! They are both up for preorder as of today!! Don’t miss out!!

We’ve also set up a special page that takes a look at some of the finer points and details of the figure, so be sure to take a look at the link below!

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword – 1/7th Scale Link

Hello everyone! This is I.G. Sakai from Max Factory’s product planning division! Today I’m going to be taking a look at this figure from ‘The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword’ that went up for preorder today!

1/7th Scale Link!

You can just feel the spirit of Link flowing out of the figure! The sculpting by Yuuki Ishiyama and painting by Hiroyuki Hirose of Decomas Lab has come together so perfectly to create a figure filled with variety! As you can from the photo above, Link looks amazing with a shadow cast over him!

▲The photo almost looks more like a painting than a figure!

Taking photos of Link against a black background really makes the figure stand out in a way that it looks more like a painting than a figure! You can see how carefully the figure has made use of the effects of light and shadow as accurately as possible!

▲Size comparison with an iPhone5!

Link is a 1/7th scale figure, but he has a more bulky figure than most female figures giving the figure some very noticeable volume! But anyway, that’s all I’m going to be taking a look at on the blog, but we have also set up a special site where you take a look at more highlights, so be sure to take a look!

■ 1/7th Scale Figure Link Special Site
http://special.goodsmile.info/whs_link/en/

The special site features close up photos with little explanations, so be sure to take a look! Here is a little peek!

▲ You can really see the detail on the chain mail with a close-up!

Also be sure to take a look at the product page where we have also prepared a video to take a closer look at the video!!

■ Link Product Page:

The 1/7th scale Link is a part of the WONDERFUL HOBBY SELECTION series of top quality products! Note that while this product is exclusive to the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP in Japan, he will also be available as always in our international partner shops! Make sure you don’t miss out!

Anyway, that’s all from me for today!

From the popular game ‘The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D’ comes a Nendoroid of the young hero and main character of the game, Link! He comes with both his standard smiling expression as well as a shouting expression for combat poses! He also comes with an assortment of classic items from the game including the Kokiri Sword, Hero’s Shield, Red Potion and Bunny Hood!

He also comes with special key items from Majora’s Mask including the Deku Mask, Goron Mask and Zora Mask, and Link’s fairy companion Tatl is also included to fly by his side and give advice. Even the evil Majora’s Mask itself is included and can even be worn by Link! So many different optional parts to really bring out the legendary world of Zelda in Nendoroid size!

Oooooohh!! (´□｀｡)

From The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D comes a Nendoroid of Link!! He is ready to use all sorts of masks to help him get through the mysterious world of Termina – a world that is set to be destroyed if Link doesn’t do something about it!

He is very different to the previously released Nendoroid Link: The Wind Waker ver. which had a more comical feel to it! This time around Link has a much more confident yet just as lovable expression! ♡

His hair neatly parted in the center as well as his characteristic pointed ears have all been transformed into Nendoroid form perfectly! (●´ω｀●)

He also comes with his Hero’s Shield which is lovely and detailed, as well as his sword which can have the blade removed to be placed into the scabbard on his back for an alternate look!

Plus his classic green hat is separated into two parts – the back part can be moved around for different poses allowing you to match even his hat to any scenes you may want to pose! (・∀・)

For example, a combat pose might leave his hat fluttering behind him!

It makes for a more realistic action scene!

He also comes with special shoulder parts that are used above, which allow you to pose him swinging the sword around more effectively! ☆

But this is just the start of Link’s optional parts! He comes with all sorts of optional parts that help to being out the Majora’s Mask universe! (｀・ω・´)ゞ

Let’s take a look at each of the parts one-by-one! ♪

– Red Potion –

Anyone that has ever played a Zelda game will know the red potion! It is the standard recovery item for Link whenever he takes a bit too much damage! The bottle it is in is really cute, and the expression with the V-shaped smile also makes it look like he is drinking to a certain degree! (σ・∀・)σ

Plus his yellow fairy companion Tatl is also included! ♪

The wings make use of a partially translucent gradient that really brings out Tatl just as he looked in game!

– Bunny Hood –

A useful item that makes you move faster when worn!

The item was always cute in game, but in Nendoroid size it has even more of a fairytale-like look that makes Link look so very adorable! (*´Д｀)=з

He also comes with bent legs that allow you to pose him as if running! ♪

– Masks –

The mask that when worn turns Link into a Deku Scrub…!

The Deku Mask ★

The strange round mouth area has been beautifully sculpted along with the black to brown gradient! The shades around the eyes have also been included to really recreate the sullen appearance! It’s kind of strange and yet at the same time rather cute!

Along with the Deku Mask, he also comes with the Goron Mask and Zora Mask! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ

Each of the masks has a little hole on the bottom allowing Link to hold it in his hand as you can see with the Deku mask above! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

But there is still one more mask…!

Majora’s Mask!!

The sinister yet still so colorful look of Majora’s Mask has been faithfully converted into Nendoroid head size, and can even be placed on Link as a kind of expression part! （/ω＼)

By the way, the mask connects onto Link through use of a special attachment part that connects into his front hair part! The part is placed between his hair and then allows the mask to be connected onto the front of the expression!

△ It connects in very reliably! No worries about it falling off!

Even from the side you can’t see the attachment parts, so it really looks like he is wearing the mask!!

His hair and pointy ears are still there… and yet nobody can see his expression…

You really can enjoy all sorts of fun and original scenes from the Legend of Zelda universe!! Be sure to add the cute hero to your collection! ☆

Nendoroid Link: The Wind Waker ver.

Today’s main character…

Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

If I was able to control any element I’d pick the wind… of all the elements, it’s always been the one that clicks with my personality the best! (｀・ω・´)

Anyway, as I’m sure you’ve guessed from the first photo… today I’m going to be going on a little adventure with…

Nendoroid Link!

From the popular video game ‘The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD’ comes a Nendoroid of the main character of the series, Link! His Hero’s Sword, Hero’s Shield, a Heart Container and the important Wind Waker itself are all included to truly bring out the Legend of Zelda experience!

Link also comes with a large variety of expressions to bring out his character – including his standard serious looking expression, a smiling expression, a combat expression and a nervous expression! He even comes with effect parts to display him swinging his sword, allowing you to display him in truly heroic poses!

The cat-eyed Link is here!! （*´▽｀*）

His characteristic eyes and expression… even the shape of his body has been converted into Nendoroid form perfectly!

The Wind Waker itself is also of course included!

Those of you who have played ‘The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker’ will know this is a rather important item to that particular title!

But there are also a number of items well known to the Zelda universe as a whole that are also included! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ

First up…

Duh-duh-duh-DAH! ♪

A Heart Container! ★

Collecting one of these will increase your maximum HP and ensure a much safer journey! It even comes with a special little stand allowing you to display it as if Link just picked it up!

Moving on…

The Hero’s Sword and Hero’s Shield! ★

Link’s classic weapon and shield have also been sculpted in careful detail to look just as they did in the game! (o・ω・o)

Plus he has a different expression to the previous smiling expression!

(・∀・) “This is his nervous expression!”

Today we’re joined by Kyojin from the planning team!

(・∀・) “I’m personally a big fan of the Legend of Zelda series, and when Max Factory released figma Link, I knew we couldn’t lose on the Nendoroid front!”

What made you choose this ‘cat-eye’ version of Link for the Nendoroid?

(・∀・) “Well… firstly because I like the cat-eyed Link! Not only was it one of my favorite Zelda games, but the more comical design lends itself to the Nendoroid look nicely! Particularly with the exchangeable expressions!”

Link’s various expressions are super adorable (*´Д｀)=з

(・∀・) “Yep! Going back to his expressions, he also comes with this slightly upset looking, kinda serious expression which is very well known from ‘The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker'”

Now that you mention it… it does look just like it did in the game! (ﾟＡﾟ;)

While the mouth shape on this expression and the nervous expression are similar, this expression is facing straight ahead with determination! It’s very reminiscent of the game! ﾍ(ﾟ∀ﾟ*)ﾉ

(・∀・) “Ah, speaking of the nervous expression… the reason it was included was to recreate…

His stealthy movement pose!!!”

Oooh! This also looks like it just jumped out of the game!

(・∀・) “I always loved the way he looked while tip-toeing in the game! It just had to be included with the Nendoroid!”

Posing him in this pose would make make even the safest of homes look like a dangerous dungeon! (*´Д`)

Here we have link sneaking around near the planning team! I can see Kyojin and Hamako… both wearing similar green shirts by some strange coincidence!

(・∀・) “You may have already noticed, but Link is rather unique as a Nendoroid – the outlines of his face are rather different to the standard Nendoroid format! We did this to bring out the atmosphere of the series and the Zelda universe as much as possible!”

The sculpt of the hair also has a rather unique feeling to it!
It seems to be flowing off to the right… (｀・ω・´)
Plus the tuft of hair by his ear is also super cute! ♥

(・∀・) “Getting the hair to ‘flow’ the same way it did in Link’s character designs was actually quite a task for the production team… combined with the balance of the hat the standard methods of doing Nendoroid hair just weren’t working. However, after trying all sorts of things they managed to get it looking great!”

By the way, the pointy bit of Link’s hat is actually rotateable allowing for some changes in nuance! Combined with the bent leg and arm parts you can create all sorts of interesting, dynamic poses! ー(‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)

(・∀・) “There are still more optional parts too!”

Oh? There are?!

(・∀・) “The last of the optional parts are this combat expression as well as some sword swinging effect parts!”

Ooooooohhh!! (°Д°；≡°Д°；)

(・∀・) “It wouldn’t be Link without the ability to pose him swinging his sword like this! It really brings out his heroic side!”

Even more poses straight from the game!! Yay!! ♪

The effect parts connect onto the Hero’s sword quickly and easily… but more importantly, this means that Link comes with four different expression parts!

(・∀・) “We actually had even more expressions at first and had to slowly cut them back with tears in our eyes… and eventually settled on these four. We hope fans of the series will enjoy having Link by their side in Nendoroid form!”

Filled with all sorts of fun ways to reenact the game! ★

Nendoroid Link!

He is up for preorder as of today! ♪
