I went through a real rollercoaster of emotions with this Legend of Zelda figure. On the one hand, it's an incredibly detailed recreation of my favorite thing about my favorite game in the franchise – sailing across the Wind Waker seas. On the other? It costs nearly twice as much as a Switch 2.
"Link on the King of Red Lions" shows off the Hero of Wind (which, I'll admit, is an unfortunate title) at the helm of his trusty talking boat. It doesn't just seem to be your average plastic statue, though. Alongside nailing that cell-shaded design that makes it look like it's rolled off the screen, the figure boasts incredible attention to detail like chipped paint on the planks. Unlike so many of the best toys, it also employs mixed media to great effect with what looks to be a cloth sail. It blows the best Legend of Zelda merch out of the water.
