Jakks Pacific reignited the world with an array of Nintendo toys.  While they are not the only toy manufacturers that help bring our favorite video game characters to life, they definitely brought to light many Nintendo IPs who hadn't seen some toy memorabilia in quite some time - especially here in the United States.  Outside of hosting plastic manifestations of Nintendo's bread-and-butter front man, Mario, and the rest of the Super Mario crew, Jakks' World of Nintendo line also highlighted characters from games such as The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Star Fox, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Splatoon, and Donkey Kong.  Critics of Nintendo titles will argue that newer entries into the various series are just rehashed versions of their original game counterparts.  Well hold your Lon Lon Milks, critics, Jakks will see your claim and raise you not once, not twice, but up to TEN TIMES more with their repackaging model.  (Excuse me while I go cry in the my collector completionist corner for how many times I bought the SAME figure in a variant package.)

Thanks to Jakks Nintendo Database (previously at https://jakksnintendodatabase.weebly.com/) (and currently at https://jakksnintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Jakks_Nintendo_Wiki) created by Lemmy_Toys I have finally compiled a COMPLETE LIST of every Legend of Zelda figure in the World of Nintendo collection.  This list will not include plushies, costumes, etc. purely so I can pretend they are not a part of this repackaging nightmare. 😭

HEY!  LISTEN!  It's been a minute! (...Or a year... or more.)  Holy Hylia, 2020 was like an alternate reality on a Majora's Mask kind of trip or something!  How did I cope?  I bought a TON of Zelda goodies from Japan!  Thing was, the import company (Buyee.jp - Not a sponsor) wouldn't ship anything outside of Japan because of the shut down.  (Big surprise with a global pandemic.)  BUT they were willing to wave holding fees indefinitely until shipping options opened back up.  That gave me a YEAR AND A HALF to hunt for Japanese Zelda goodies that we hardly see here in the States and stockpile my treasures in some poor warehouse in Japan until the time had come.  AND THAT DAY IS NOW!

After FOUR shipping crates and unholy shipping fees (even with shipping consolidation) I definitely got what I paid for!  I am so happy with the entire experience and everything I was able to purchase throughout what seemed like a never ending nightmare during 2020.  I'll try my best to get everything photographed and added here on the site.  It's been a little overwhelming with what still needs to get posted so I've been trying to share a pic a day from my collection over on my Instagram!  (If you don't follow me over there - you should!  https://www.instagram.com/linksliltri4ce/) 

I hope you enjoy watching the unboxing videos and get to see some hidden treasures that we don't often find these days.  Let me know what your favorite items from my haul were!

Hey everyone!  This is Linksliltri4ce from The Legend of Cosplay here with TWO special Legend of Collections Unboxing Videos!  We'll be checking out the new Bioworld NES Zelda Gift Box plus a few extra goodies sent to me from The Hylian Shop! (https://www.thehylianshop.com) #NotASponsor ...but let's collab or something, Brandon!

Hey everyone!  Time to reawaken my main page, The Legend of Cosplay!  It's been quite some time since I've really built any plushies or cosplays and that's a super bummer.  So I've joined Twitch!  I am currently renovating and creating a whole crafting space (as well as a larger space for my Zelda Collection!)  Once the space is finished, I figured the best way to get back into the old me is to livestream my builds! ♥

Hey everyone!  With the new EnterPLAY cards finally out I made it my mission to open the entire set!  It was a long process but I was finally rewarded with a shiny new set of Zelda Trading cards!  Along my quest to complete the set, I came across SOOOOOOO many duplicate cards.  I will be selling my extra cards (once I find out exactly how many of each I have) in the near future.  Contact me here or send your fastest Hylian Postman with an email my way if you're interested!

What's that?  Oh!  You came here for the giveaway?  Cool - let's get to that then! ;)

So - since I have SOOOOOOOOOOOO many cards, I thought to myself, "Hey Linksliltri4ce!  You haven't done a giveaway in such a long time!  ESPECIALLY through The Legend of Collections!  Actually, this will be the first Collections Giveaway!!! Anywho, you should be cool and give one lucky fan a complete base set of these cards.  Heck, you might even throw in a bonus gold card if enough awesome people want to play along!"  So that's what we're gonna do!!!  So once this video gets at least 500+ Facebook likes or YouTube thumbs ups (it has to be 500+ on either site - since I'm too lazy to combine them) I will prepare the giveaway!
