You know we love a very good scoop right here at Retro Dodo, and the information that Lego has cancelled all Legend of Zelda Lego units on it’s Lego Ideas web page might imply we’re about to see an official Lego Zelda Set.

I imply, it is sensible, proper? We’ve already had tonnes of Lego Super Mario Sets and seen Sonic getting into the Lego world along with his blocky-version of the Green Hill Zone.

A Lego Zelda set is what we avid gamers deserve.

So what does Lego cancelling all of its initiatives really imply?

Let’s dive into the newest information from Lego HQ and unpack it brick by brick.

Sometimes I actually hate myself for these horrible jokes.

Lego Zelda Set Could Be Just Around The Corner!

If you’re a fan of Retro Dodo’s work, which most likely explains why you’re right here, you then’ll know that I’m obsessive about Zelda.

I’ve stored my eye out for brand new and thrilling Lego initiatives over on the Lego Ideas web page for years, and a few of them have seemed unimaginable promising.

Heck, within the time I’ve been trying, there have been round 8 which have attracted the required 10,000 votes to go to a panel of bigwigs at Lego.

Once a design reaches 10,000, Lego judges it and determines whether or not it could actually go into manufacturing or not. And sadly, we’ve all the time been on the ‘not’ stage with the submissions thus far.

So why the sudden halt in proceedings?

Well, the information that no extra Lego Zelda Set submissions suggests one factor – there’s an official set coming our manner.

What Might The Legend Of Zelda Lego Set Look Like?

So far, we’ve seen a bionic-style Link from Breath of the Wild together with Champions Tunic, and we’ve additionally seen an old-school Ocarina of Time Hyrule Castle going up towards a BOTW Hyrule Castle.

In phrases of characters and the success of the Nintendo Switch, I’ve obtained a powerful feeling we may very well be about to see a Breath of the Wild Zelda dropping, with an possibility to put the inexperienced floppy hat of yesteryear on Link for any die-hard followers like me.

Complete with LED transferring face? I feel so!

A bit Lego Daruk would even be unimaginable. That could be the widest Lego figurine I consider all time, except you depend The Mighty Bowser in our greatest Nintendo Lego units, in fact!

Could Someone Else Be Making Zelda Construction Sets?

Of course, it’s solely believable that Lego have misplaced out on the rights to make a Lego Zelda set altogether.

We’re seeing increasingly Mega Construx collectible figurines dropping over current months, particularly as regards to Pokemon.

If Mega Construx have signed a take care of Nintendo for one more of their greatest franchises, then we may very well be about to see blocky Bokoblins (or ‘Blockoblins’) hitting cabinets concurrently The Legend Of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Whether it’s Lego, Mega Construx, or one other competing firm, I feel it’s probably that we’ll see a constructing set and tonnes of different merchandise dropping when the brand new recreation releases.

Link is Nintendo’s money cow, and everybody will probably be heading down with a milking bucket to gather some money.

For now, all we will do is hope and pray that if Lego has obtained maintain of the licenses for a Lego Zelda set, that they’ll do my favorite franchise justice.

I can’t wait to step on a Lego Epona at 2 within the morning whereas strolling to the lavatory.

Seb Santabarbara has purchased each Nintendo console that has ever been launched in his 31 years on Planet Earth. His favorite recreation franchise is Zelda, and he’s patiently ready for Banjo-Kazooie to return again to the fold. When he’s not enjoying video games, he’s travelling the world in his self-converted camper van.
