Late last year, Lego teased a return to its Legend of Zelda collaboration with Nintendo was coming, and was set to take us back to one of the most iconic boss battles in the games’ history: Ocarina of Time‘s almighty scrap among the ruins of Hyrule Castle Town where Link confronts the monstrous Ganon. Now, we have a proper look at the set, and it’s even better than we imagined.
This morning Lego and Nintendo unveiled Ocarina of Time: The Final Battle, a 1,003-piece diorama faithfully recreating the climactic fight from the beloved game. Taking place on a Triforce-badged display base recreating the fiery arena and ruins of Hyrule right out of the N64, the set includes three minifigures—Link, Princess Zelda, and Ganondorf—as well as a massive brick-built version of the latter’s transformation into Ganon.
The set itself also features a bevy of little features and nods to Ocarina, including a pile of rubble for the Ganondorf minifigure to burst out of, as well as a couple of items hidden away among the ruins in the form of a trio of recovery hearts (you’ll need them!) and the Megaton Hammer. And, of course, there’s a small display stand to pose Navi the fairy floating from nearby. But really, the focus is on that amazing, brick-built Ganon, which is fully poseable and comes with two massive greatswords for him to wield.
While the first Lego Legend of Zelda set, the 2-in-1 Great Deku Tree, was fantastic, the nature of its necessity to represent both versions of the Deku Tree from Ocarina and Breath of the Wild made it a massive (and massively pricey) set to kick off the Zelda line, costing a hefty $300. At $130 (and just under half the piece count), the new set will still have you eyeing some jars to smash for a few extra rupees. But it’s a hopeful sign that, should Lego keep making more Zelda sets after this, we can get ones that come at various scopes and price points. Anything to give our wallets their own chance to find a few recovery hearts.
The Lego Ocarina of Time: The Final Battle set will hit shelves on March 1, and is available to preorder now.
