Zelda News

Sure we’ve all seen iPhone case geekery, to include the ever-popular Gameboy phone case, but have you seen one with a Zelda game on the screen? Hit the jump to do just that. Read the rest of this entry »

Being mexican, I would like to share with you some merchandise I like from a Mexican Store called “Máscara de Látex” (Latex Mask), which sells different clothes about things many like to call “geek”. It has reference to memes, Mexican pop culture, videogames and more. They only make limited editions but are open to reprints if there is enough demand for them.

Here are some of the items they currently have in stock. The prices are in Mexican pesos. The easiest way to get a rough idea of the USD price equivalent is to divide the price between 10 (or 12.11 which is how many Mexican pesos make a dollar). For example 199 T Shirts would be a bit less than 19.9 dollars

They have a physical store in the Federal District of Mexico but they take orders from any country in the world, according to their FAQ. You can pay with debit and credit card or PayPal. Shipping price will vary depending where you live.

Sadly for many and for me the one I liked the most is now out of stock, but I am hopeful the demand will call for a reprint. I invite you to browse around, there are nice Nintendo designs around: Hoodies, Male T-shirts, Female T-shirts, Male Sneakers.

What do you think?

In celebration of Toon Link’s HD debut, why not buy a pair of Converse All-Stars with our favorite cel-shaded hero adorning them? They’ll set you back $140.00, but just look at them. These are truly unique; each pair is hand-painted upon ordering.

Also available are Four Swords High Tops. Since these are custom ordered, picking out two different colored shoes is obviously the way to go.

Want some milk, but don’t have a cow, ocarina, or the ability to play Epona’s Song? Don’t stress! YellerCrakka is here to save the day!  For $12.00 USD, you can have your very own bottle of Lon Lon Milk to carry along wherever your journeys may lead you.

YellerCrakka’s shop also has other Zelda items such as the Fairy in a Bottle Charm Necklace, available in all of the colors of the rainbow, Heart Container Potion Bottle Charm Necklace,  and Triforce Stud Earrings.

If you remember the Figma Link news post we posted last year, you would remember that getting this Figma Link figurine would cost about $60 to purchase and was unavailable in the United States due to licensing issues.

Well now that the licensing problem has been resolved, you can get this Figma Link figurine for $50. Pre-orders are being accepted for the figurine and it will be sold during the fourth quarter of 2013.

As you can see in the news image above, the figurine is that of Skyward Sword Link. The doll is fully poseable and you pose it anyway you want.

Here’s some information from the product page:

-Using the smooth yet poseable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different scenes.
-A flexible plastic is used for important areas, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
-He comes with his standard gallant expression, as well as a powerful shouting face for combat poses.
-The Master Sword as well as the Hylian Shield are both included. They can also be carried on his back as they did in the game.
-A poseable figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.

Did Ganondorf clone himself with a replication spell? Nah.

First 4 Figures is now selling hundreds of these Twilight Princess Ganondorf figures for $450. Each statue stands at around 23 inches tall including the base of which the figurine stands on. The figures are made out of poly-stone and are hand crafted and hand painted. His cape includes wires within the cape for posibility.

You better find the funds for this soon as these figurines will be gone within the next month!

Ready for more good Zelda Merchandise? Of course you are!

TheCuraga, an artist at DeviantART, has created two shirts for you that you can wear. The first is “The Hero” a shirt dedicated to Link, the hero of the Legend of Zelda series. The second shirt is “The Shadow” which is dedicated to Link’s evil shadow, Dark Link. Both cost around $25 to purchase and can be sold in different colors.

If you like the t-shirts, be sure to purchase them and add them to your favorites on DeviantART.

I found this gem today browsing around, it is not new but I consider it worth sharing. They are one of the most affordable and  beautifully designed Zelda poker card sets I have ever seen. That’s right, now we can play solitaire with style.

Created by Nelde, this set of cards are now produced by The United States Playing Card Company and are being sold online via the web  Fangamer for just $15.00 USD plus shipping. Whether you want to use them or store them for your collection, this cards seems like a good deal to own.

I have no doubt of the effort and care put into this cards. We can see that the creator not only liked Zelda but was also familiar with poker cards. Instead of a quick overlay of Zelda images, Nelde went ahead and designed the cards in a very carefully resemblance to traditional poker game cards. There is a lot of detail we can appreciate the more we look at them.  The traditional suits have been altered to fit with Zelda: Triforces, Hearts, Swords and Rupees. Each suit has different characters for its hierarchy.

For me, that is what makes “Cards of Legend” soar above a simply gimmick . They adapted to the cards’ logic and managed to include things from different games without making it feel out of place. People familiar with the poker cards but not with Zelda will not have problems to adapt.

Would you buy them if you had the opportunity?

norfair86 of etsy has designed neat little Zelda Leather Notebook which sells for $40. It is a 250 blank page notebook in which you can have the leather dyed into a color of your choice. The leather notebook costs $40, has metal corners and takes 2-4 weeks to be completed and shipped.

If you want another piece of Zelda merchandise for your collection, you better order from this person soon!

I had to do a quick little promotion for this item. Xaveric has made an amazing replica of Majora’s Mask. It is made out of polyurethane plastic and is packed with expandable foam. This mask, which is really light at the weight of 1 pound, can be worn on a person’s face on around their neck and chest region.

Currently, this amazing piece of work is being sold for $235 on his Etsy page, so if you want to get it, you better order it quick!

Here’s a picture he made demonstrating it:

If I had the money, I would so buy this mask. It looks almost official!
