"We are very excited to be working with Nintendo on the Legend of Zelda brand. The franchise has clearly stood the test of time, having just celebrated its 20th Anniversary. The first game captured the imagination of a generation, with the following games capturing the imagination of another and then another. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess looks all set to do the same," says Alex Davis, director of First 4 Figures. "We will be mainly concentrating on doing statues based on the games The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess."

There are plans for single statues, mixed media statues, and VS dioramas.

The first in the series of statues will be previewed at this year's upcoming E3 on Nintendo's stand with product anticipated to come to market the third quarter of 2006. They will be available in collectible and specialty stores worldwide as well as directly at the First 4 Figures website. They will stand approximately 9 to 12 inches tall and will retail for $80 to $120 for single statues and $200+ for high end VS dioramas.

Current product development plans include, but are not limited to:

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Young Link
Sheik
Ganondorf VS Link Diorama
Dark Link

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Fierce Deity Link
Skull Kid

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Zelda
Link

These sure are expensive, but if you visit the website, you can see the fine detail of some of the figurines. It's amazing how realistic it looks. I can't wait to see these when they come out. I don't think I'll be spending around 100$ on collectibles though...Well, maybe just one ^_^.

I'll consider it when they come out with the real Twilight Princess statues. In the meantime, too much money for something that's just going to sit there.

Too much money is what those statues are worth!They look better than the game animation!There is no cheap moddeling it is all fine.I wouldn't be surprised if only a few of them would only release.

Check it out, this is my fave one-


I hope they dont use real clothe for the clothes...

I highly doubt they would. Statues like this are almost always entirely made of resin, which it looks like everything else on their site is.

Eh, no WW ones. I suppose it wouldn't be very fun making WW figures however.

Totally agree..no WW models, they'll just look like crappy mcdonalds toys with a higher price.
