Get ready to relive one of gaming’s most iconic moments—because the final battle from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is coming to life in Lego form, and it’s as epic as it sounds. But here’s where it gets controversial: is this the Lego set fans have been dreaming of, or is it just another piece in the ever-growing puzzle of Nintendo collaborations? Let’s dive in.
Earlier today, leaks surfaced on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Legoleak/comments/1qe6y4h/zelda77093thefinalbattleocarinaof_time/) revealing the highly anticipated The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Lego set, officially titled The Final Battle: Ocarina of Time. According to a Brick Tap source, this 1,003-piece set will retail for £100 in the UK and is expected to debut on March 1st—yes, that’s right, it’s just around the corner. The box art alone is a nostalgia bomb, showcasing a towering, brick-built Ganon in his boar-like form, wielding dual blades with a fierce presence. Link stands ready to face off with his Master Sword, while Princess Zelda radiates power with a Lego-fied beam of light emanating from her hands. And let’s not forget the inclusion of Navi, the trusty fairy companion, who—fun fact—could probably sail the seven seas if given the chance.
But this is the part most people miss: the set doesn’t stop at the main characters. Alongside Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf (in his Gerudo chief form), fans can expect to find the game’s iconic Megaton Hammer and recovery hearts. It’s a detail-rich tribute to one of gaming’s most beloved moments, and in my opinion, Ganon’s design is nothing short of magnificent.
Now, here’s the kicker: this isn’t Lego’s first rodeo with Nintendo. Just this week, the two giants unveiled their Pokémon sets, featuring fan favorites like Pikachu, Eevee, and the Kanto Region Badge Collection (https://www.eurogamer.net/lego-pokemon-unveiled-but-catching-em-all-will-cost-you). But remember the chaos when the Kanto Region Badges—a free gift for pre-ordering the Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise model—started popping up on resale sites like eBay for over £100? Scalpers struck again, leaving many fans frustrated. Will the Ocarina of Time set face a similar fate? Only time will tell.
So, here’s the burning question: Is this Lego set a must-have for Zelda fans, or is it just another overpriced collectible? Let’s spark some debate—do you think Lego and Nintendo are hitting the mark with these collaborations, or are they milking the nostalgia train? Drop your thoughts in the comments below!
