Lego Zelda Great Deku Tree Is Real And Available To Preorder
After years of rumors, Lego has officially unveiled its first Legend of Zelda set. The Danish toy giant is looking to two of the most influential Legend of Zelda games, The Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild, to debut a massive Great Deku Tree two-in-one set full of cool features and small details. With 2,500 pieces, the Great Deku Tree set can change based on its appearance in the two Zelda games and it’s available to preorder for $300 ahead of its September 1 release
For the minifigures, you’ll get Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild Links, Princess Zelda, and brick-built characters like Koroks, Deku Babas, a Deku Sprout, Navi the Fairy, a Skulltula, and a maracas-shaking Hestu. Where things get interesting is in the finished build, as the Breath of the Wild version of the Great Deku Tree has an animated face that can be controlled with a lever on its back, while the Ocarina Of Time version has an opening mouth that reveals a Skulltula monster.
If you do choose to build the Breath of the Wild version of this set, you’ll want to be careful, as those parts and minifigures aren’t as durable and will break after playing with them for a short while. (We’re joking; we like making fun of this particular gameplay mechanic.)
