The Legend of Zelda Merch/Swag/Collectible Thread

[Iwatasan]

I sent out some PM's about this since it didn't seem to get much notice here when it was announced yesterday, but for those of you who subscribe to this thread who I may have missed...

Thread

Preorder



This has sold out once already, so the preorder link above is for GameStop's second preorder window offering, "bundled" with a separate copy of Tri Force Heroes.

Get it while you still can.

At PAX Prime here in Seattle they had Zelda TriForce Heroes shirts for those who played the demo of the game, insanely long lines but I got a few and will be adding to my eBay links on the for sale/trade collectibles thread soon.

Another Zelda Themed Arcade Block, for those who are interested. Also you get a "Free Welcome Block" for new Subscriptions. Pay for 1 month then cancel if you're not interested in keeping subscription. Was no issue for me before.

Haven't updated the first post in a bit, but here are some new statue/figures from F4F/Darkhorse from the Skyward Sword series. Also, strange that they say GS Exclusive, I'm assuming that's just in the US though?

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Scervo Statue - GameStop Exclusive (by Dark Horse Comics but it says F4F on the box) - $124.99 MSRP

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Link Statue - GameStop Exclusive (by Dark Horse Comics but it says F4F on the box) - $79.99 MSRP

Also, here's the first glimpse of some of the 30th Anniversary (2016) Zelda merchandise that is likely to be aglut next year.

Seems like there's potentially a new Zelda TCG coming out. If they're making "playmats", "card sleeves", and "collectible tins", its almost guaranteed to be an actual game. They also showed some Zelda dog tags and a few other miscellaneous items. So long wallet... I'll miss you!

And sorry for the 3rd post in a row, but what is your guys' preference for the master list in the front -- would you prefer links to where you can purchase the things (which might eventually run out), links to the post on this thread where all the information is, or small images next to each of them or something else?

I've tried to do a "Name of Item"(linked to where you can buy it), MSRP Price, Pic(link to picture of said item) when applicable, but just wondering if there's a better way to display it all for you before I start adding a bunch more things later? Let me know!

Thanks Knight!

I would recommend the second option, linking to the specific post within the thread. It'd be easier to add plenty of photos, links to retailers, release details, and similar information from each specific post. In the long term, retailer links will run out of stock and go dead, and pics will lose their hosting and need to be re-linked, but the release details and similar information will last as long as this forum does. Best I think to keep the table of contents as it were simple, Ctrl+F searchable, and linked directly to the specific posts.

Also I have a ton of stuff I could add unless this thread is geared toward new releases? Let me know.

You make valid points there. I'll take a look at it again and see which way works best!

And yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking about -- does this become the thread where we just list new things that people can actually get right now? But I think maybe we can make it more than that and just put a collection of ALL the items that are available? Obviously its a huge undertaking, but there aren't many places on the internet that have it all in one location, so it could be pretty useful for the handful of Zelda collectors on here and possibly draw some more traffic in if it became extensive? Also, would be useful for us to see what else is out there that we need to hunt for.

I'm game for any additions - if you've got the time feel free to add 'em. Wish we could wiki-fy those posts though so others could change/add as they see fit, but not sure if the forum supports those options currently.
