The LEGO Group is launching its first-ever set from The Legend of Zelda franchise: the Great Deku Tree 2-in-1 set.
The 2,500-piece kidult set has two buildable options inspired by the Great Deku Tree as seen in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The set also features iconic imagery from both games.
With the Breath of the Wild version, the Great Deku Tree is covered in pink blossoms, expressive eyebrows and mouth, the Master Sword pedestal, and more. In the Ocarina of Time version, the set features lush green foliage, Link’s House, and more. The Great Deku Tree’s mouth even opens to reveal a Skulltula.
The set comes with four minifigures, including Princess Zelda and Link. The set also includes buildable characters and creatures including Hestu the Korok, Deku Babas, Navi the Fairy, the Deku Sprout, and more.
“The Deku Tree was the first element from The Legend of Zelda we wanted to represent using LEGO bricks,” says Eiji Aonuma, Producer of The Legend of Zelda series at Nintendo Co. “This set allows you to build two different versions of the Deku Tree from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild with unique features that are a great fit for the nature of the series.”
“Our fans have been asking for a LEGO set based on The Legend of Zelda series for a while so we were delighted to work with Nintendo to create the Great Deku Tree in brick form,” says Wes Talbott, LEGO designer. “As a fan of the franchise, it was great to work on this set and fill it with details and references from the games. I’m also glad we managed to offer the choice to build one of two versions to appeal to many Zelda fans.”
The set is available for preorder now and will be widely available starting Sept. 1 for $299.99.
