Part of the company’s ‘Real Action Heroes’ lineup, the figure stands at 11.8 inches (30 cm) tall and comes fully poseable. It wears a fabric outfit “faithfully recreated” from the game. He also comes equipped with his sword, shield, bow, arrows, quiver and “other accessories” like an equippable hood. The collectible Link figure also comes with interchangeable hands and two facial expressions, which helps justify (even if a little) the hefty price tag. The model weighs in at 3.5 pounds and comes with a stand, so he can be placed in any number of different poses on a desk or shelf.
It should be noted that while many will balk at the $335 price tag, the detailing on the collectible Link figure is absolutely beautiful. The shield and the other accessories that come with the figure are all equally detailed as well. This may not be for everyone, but hardcore collectors and fans of The Legend of Zelda should definitely look into picking this one up to add to their collections.
