Its wierd how we haven't gotten a figma botw link yet, specially considering skyward link is constantly re printed and people who arent into action figures buy it still
Twilight Princess has always been my favorite Link. I love the realistic look of his outfit. I used to be super into buying World of Nintendo but I stopped after they went full Mario. Since learning about these I’ve been constantly checking Walmart for prices. Finally have a fellow collector shipping some over to me. It’s amazing to me that these cost $10 but have better sculpts and more paint work than a $25 Marvel Legends. Hasbro ought to be ashamed of themselves 😂
As you mentioned, the paint work is awesome for such a low price. But also, the box art is very pretty. I open 99.9% of my figures, but I think I might keep these on card.
I think for a custom child body that has a more medieval feel to it, it works really nice. Custom head, a custom paint job, and maybe a matte clear coat it would fit in with mythic legions even.
Never have I clicked a video so fast. Excellent review Anthony. It really amazes me how Hasbro is putting so little effort paint and accessory wise on Legends and Black series. Zelda and Link are amazing considering the price.
The accessory situation is weird, tho. Zelda comes with the sheikah slate only, which feels very insubstantial compared to link. Shoulda had the bow of light included. As for link, he can come with either a simple soldier's broadsword (an also somewhat insubstantial accessory), or he can come with the master sword and hylian shield, a very hefty and extremely well-detailed pair of accessories that is remarkably more substantial. Also, the 2 link figures are identical otherwise, so good luck finding a master sword link cuz nobody would want the soldier sword instead lol😊
@@AnthonysCustoms Will you review mcf Scarecrow from Arkham Knight? Interested in your opinion as I'm very disappointed in his lack of paint despite a very good sculpt.
These are surprisingly good for the price. Might have to pick them up. Personally, I would really want the Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess versions as they are my favorite versions of Link and Zelda.
The link between worlds costume has been my favorite since it came out and the Figma Link based on that game is one of my favorite figures of all time.
Thanks to this video, I learned two things: 1. These figures are in no way fitting the scale of the 4" Mario figures (or is Link really that tall...?) Which would be excusable if we were talking about different brands, but we don't. (To be fair, many brands don't care too much about correct scaling, sadly.) EDIT: At least that's what I thought. But after a little DIY size comparison in Mario Kart 8, Link's height is rather accurate. Compared side by side, measuring body sections and considering that Mario is around 155 cm, Link is about 220 cm tall in this game - which would convert to around 13 cm within the 4" universe, making this figure not taller but a little bit shorter than it should be. 2. Even with characters whose physiology ×should× allow good articulation, Jakks still does a rather bad/pretty bad job. A big thank you for showing them next to a ruler👍 Seems trivial, but most reviewers seem to think that comparing figures to other figures would be helpful enough - which it isn't, for the reasons I mentioned above. What are these people trying to do? Proving that Americans will use ANYTHING but the metric system?😂
My favorite look for Link is Twilight Princess. I'll also throw in Hyrule Warriors Link too These $10 figures are better than most Marvel Legends at $25.
I dunno all of the various looks of Link, but I have to say, I like him in his green, Robin hood type outfit. Lol! I think that was the basically the outfit in "ocarina of time", because I love that friggin game, but again, I'm no expert on the many looks of Link. Lol! Sik
Honestly I'm shocked with how well they did Link, and for $10? Why is it all the figures you looked at this week were all expensive hunks of junk but the least expensive is the best value? Insane, I'll have to seek these guys out! Also to answer your question, I dig the OoT look
I never liked Jakks Pacific's quality. The only figures I bought from them were the Starfox figures because they were the only ones that made articulated figures of Fox, Falco, and Slippy. If you want quality Nintendo figures refer to Goodsmile products like Figma and Nendoroids.
I just got these and they are amazing. Zelda looks great but I'm not a huge fan of Link's face. I would have preferred a neutral expression, but it's not the end of the world. The Sheikah Slate holder on Link can double as a holder for his sword(albeit not very sturdy). Can't wait for the figma totk Link!
I was just bitching about the $60 price point of the Blob figure (again lol) and then your video showed a 10 dollar price point... thank you Anthony. Point made. Sik
Wow jakks pacific that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time..brings me back. I remember those dragon ball GT ones. “I’m gonna do Zelda first so you don’t tune out after we finish link” LOL I snorted
I will say that no bicep/thigh swivel is an infuriating problem. I never realize how much I use that articulation until it's gone. Still for $10 who cares. A price point, paint, and sculpt that harkens back to the marvel legends heyday. Meanwhile Hasbro is hemorrhaging because no one wants to pay for their crap. I've got such a soft spot of Majora's Mask, but I think OOT is probably my favorite design. I still regret not getting the Link Between Worlds figma, that design is just my perfect compromise of what I remember, that if it wasn't for the different bangs, that probably would be my favorite design.
I could swear I already left a comment on this video, but apparently not lol. My favourite Link design is probably Link to the Past, I'm a fan of the pink hair for Link in that game. Or possibly Wind Waker design because stylized looks for characters is always appealing to me. The whole liscensing excuse with Hasbro is just pure bs when products like these - who also liscensing agreements - exist. Unfortunately, the Shillimus Primes of the world wouldn't dare review these types of products, for fear of making Hasbro look less than perfect.
If not mistaken Jakks did release a BOTW Link figure set that came with bow/arrow, quiver and tunic accessories which I wonder if they are compatible with this newer version 🤔. By the way looking forward to Samus's review if you plan on getting her as well 😬.
@@AnthonysCustoms Leaning towards the amiibo but my only question is the size. the link archer amiibo (which is what i want) is pretty decent sized judging from videos... is it in 1/12 scale? or maybe i am misinterpreting its size and its really small? i dont really mind not being able to pose, the pose is already good. So size is probably the only thing to consider for me. guess i better research more. thanks for your insight
About two weeks ago, I ran into them by accident at Walmart. They even had the Metroid figure also. I didn't buy them because I was fixated at other figures. Went back a few days later, gone. All of them. If I see them in the wild again, I'll be sure to scoop'em up.
Also I was shopping for the NECA Auto-T TMNT line up. Which this Walmart didn't carry, but I found a Walmart near my job that does. My mistake was underestimating how popular these Zelda figures were.
Man I just wish they had the necessary bicep and thigh swivels across the board. Link has em like you pointed out... So why didn't samus have em?! Heck Link just needed a ball jointed waist swivel and he's be perfect to me
Anyone saying that ML lacks in paint because of the Marvel licensing is crazy, because I can bet that Nintendo's licensing fee is on par with Marvel's (if not more), and Jakks is a much smaller company than Hasbro (and less wealthy).
If we're talking in-game model I like SS Link the best since he wears some of the stuff you pick up. Otherwise A Link to the Past is still the best. BotW's classic costume is also up there for me especially since it's the only worthwhile reward in the game.
I'm pretty sure Nintendo licenses should be as expensive as Marvel's, I refuse to believe anything Hasbro says when detailed figures like these can be made for cheap.
Where does one buy these from that isn't ebay? I haven't found a source besides them being twice as much or more as the ten dollar retail price you're saying, and on weird toy sites I've never heard of
I got darwin for the baf piece and then sold him. Every time y see an Anthony video I regret selling him. Also, these two figures look insanely good for the price, can't believe it's 10 bucks. They are not my cup of tea style-wise but they are stupid good for the price
The Samus figure has some of the most comically bad arm joints I've ever seen. For $10 though, I think these are solid releases. All about classic ocarina of time.
Nice! Jazzwares have come from a long way since their mk and street fighter figs to ufc and aew figs. They could possibly out beat hasbro in terms of articulation, detail, paint applications 🤔
I might get Zelda Female action figures aren't all that common unless they're superheroes. Plus, she THICC. I hope one day we get a Tears of the Kingdom variation of Zelda, but that doesn't seem likely.
Gotta go with Twilight Princess costume. It's not my favourite game, that would be Majora's Mask, but TP just got that darker, more serious vibe to it.
I really want to pick these up, but a quick online search shows them going for $20 each. Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to find them at the $10 price point? TIA 🙏
@AnthonysCustoms I work at Walmart so I be checking the in-stock. All the Walmarts just updated the toy pegs and these figures have their own pegs. Each Walmart should be getting like 4-5 cases to fill them.
Ocarina of Time Link is my favorite version of Link. Still waiting for a collectible figure of that Link. Its a shame to see Jaks out do hasbros marvel legends like this, i think Nintendo is pickier with there IPs no one makes oficial nintendo figures now a days.
These figures look really nice especially for the price but I just wish they made these 1/12th. My fav link is twilight princess. Ocarina of time and skyward sword are close.
Ah yes I loved using so much *the table of DOOM* during my playing section botw It called the *Sheikah slate...* but who cares, prefer the better *Purah Pad* from Purah herself 😏
Wow $10 for these!!! What, did we go back in time or something? I got a few Jakks and while not the highest quality, they made decent Halo figures and I love my old 30" tall Master Chief and Godzilla. Seriously, suck it Hasbro...
Its wierd how we haven't gotten a figma botw link yet, specially considering skyward link is constantly re printed and people who arent into action figures buy it still
Well, a Link BOTW figma has since been announced but for a very high price, especially if you want the deluxe version with all the accessories.
"it has more paint than an entire wave of marvel legends" LOL
Twilight Princess has always been my favorite Link. I love the realistic look of his outfit.

I’d like to get a badass high quality figure of twilight princess link (that’s not figma)
Jakks didn't have to give zelda her giant world ending thighs...but they did and I respect them for that
They what 💀
Muhahaha they gave her the Blood moon thigh’s
As you mentioned, the paint work is awesome for such a low price. But also, the box art is very pretty. I open 99.9% of my figures, but I think I might keep these on card.
Get 2. I did. One to open and one to keep sealed.
I think for a custom child body that has a more medieval feel to it, it works really nice. Custom head, a custom paint job, and maybe a matte clear coat it would fit in with mythic legions even.
I wish we could get an Ocarina of Time figma Link figure.
If they make one, I’ll buy 10
And Ganondorf
If Figma does get around to making it, it'll mostly be over price and have hardly any accessories.
I wish, but Skyward Link is good enough, I for one would yell for Ganondorf!
We need a twilight princess figure
Never have I clicked a video so fast. Excellent review Anthony. It really amazes me how Hasbro is putting so little effort paint and accessory wise on Legends and Black series. Zelda and Link are amazing considering the price.
Finally found these figures and love them for their price point. I gotta say wind waker is my favorite link. He’s so damn charming.
0:33 i was playing this is the background and the sudden change in tone caught my attention and then i started cackling 😭😭

Zelda 1 Link with the brown hair looks cool. I want a figure that recreate that one piece of artwork of him carrying a billion items at once.
Good idea
No Cake rating on Zelda? Shocking.
She thick fosho 🤤
thats only for mcf figures

Oh my GOD 😁 " it has more colors than a whole wave of Marvel Legends " Just realizing its true !🤣🤣🤣
Which section did you find them in? Electronics or general toys with Mario and stuff?
Thanks for the great review, as always!
mario and stuff in toys

Twilight Princess is my favourite Link, but my favourite game from the series is Wind Waker
If it was closer to a 6" scale I might buy it. Still, pretty good for the price, especially compared to Hasbro's latest offerings.
It should work for 6 inch scale, as Link is typically really short in the game like 5 ft, so it should definitely with some other charcters
@@gallaxseizor9216 Yep he works with black series height figures real well.

Yeah they are compatible! Link can do a surpricingly good arrow shooting pose. He can even grip the arrow with his hand.
Was hoping Link would be the first to defeat Darwin in the outro.
Chris Hansen is waiting for Darwin in the kitchen lol
For me wind waker links outfit is my fav

Bro has so much beef with Hasbro and I respect it
So he smells his princess and then goes hug him. Darwin is terrible lol
I saw this figure at Walmart along with Samus back in June and I got both of them and I gotta say, for a 10$ figure, it's very detailed.
these Lonk and Zwooda are so worth for the price imo

i need to find the samus one asap
I bought those toys just now!
How has figma not come out with botw or oot man..
Very happy with these. Couldn't pass on them particularly with there not being anything better quality as far as BOTW figures go.
I haven’t seen this line in a while. Nice.

OOT for sure.
Gotta go with Twilight Princess costume. It's not my favourite game, that would be Majora's Mask, but TP just got that darker, more serious vibe to it.
I know It's already been said but It's criminal that we haven't gotten Figmas of Ocarina of Time Link and Ganondorf.
Can u show them with figma link and zelda
There's really no valuable compassion to make. Different scale and the figma are much higher quality
Ocarina of time link! That was the best look in my opinion!
10:47 Biden?
I want to like this line, but my Links head snapped off when I opened him.
Tp link, Or firece diety link is my fav.

Zelda and Link are 2 per case. While Samus is 1 per case. Overall good figures, hope Jakks continues the series with others.

the Link from Legend of Zelda . ( which is the same one)an the one mario super show, green tunic an brown hair link .

I think ocarina of time link or alttp link have the best tunics in the series.
my favorite is link from alttp cause he doesn't wear pants. just like a real man!
I wonder if the sword breaks too easily just like in the game lol
There sold out on BBTS.
Just drives me nuts that Hasbro willingly scams us collectors. 😡
Dude that Zelda cake tho.
These figures look really nice especially for the price but I just wish they made these 1/12th. My fav link is twilight princess. Ocarina of time and skyward sword are close.
But this is 1/12
link is mostly 5 foot tall and this is 5 inch
completely accurate 1/12
Sheikah Slate
Ah yes I loved using so much *the table of DOOM* during my playing section botw
It called the *Sheikah slate...* but who cares, prefer the better *Purah Pad* from Purah herself 😏
Ocarina of time is my favorite look since ut got me into the series
Wow $10 for these!!! What, did we go back in time or something? I got a few Jakks and while not the highest quality, they made decent Halo figures and I love my old 30" tall Master Chief and Godzilla. Seriously, suck it Hasbro...
Just found out about these. Managed to find a minty Zelda laying in a pile of Marios. No luck with Link yet. Online is a joke so far.
