A Third LEGO Zelda Set, and the Biggest Swing Yet

Nintendo revealed a new LEGO set during The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct on 8 September: LEGO The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - Link & Epona, a brick-built Link on a rearing Epona with the Master Sword raised. Nintendo puts it at 1,750 pieces, arriving in spring 2027, and describes it as a collectible display model for adults. One image exists so far, and that is the whole of it.

Why It Matters for Dads

The two existing sets both hedged. The Great Deku Tree (77092) is a 2,500-piece centrepiece that still hands you four minifigures, and the Ocarina of Time: The Final Battle (77093) is a play-and-display diorama with a button that raises Ganondorf out of the rubble. Both are sets a kid can be part of, which is exactly why they work in a family house.

This one is not that. A single sculpted figure at display scale is a shelf object, and shelf objects are for the parent, not the eight-year-old who wants to knock the horse over. That is not a complaint — the 1,750-piece count puts it in the same bracket as the Deku Tree without the minifigure budget, so most of that money is going into the shaping of a horse and a hero, which is where LEGO has quietly become very good. It is worth knowing what you are buying before the preorder page opens.

The timing is not an accident either, because the Ocarina of Time remake lands on Switch 2 on 5 November. A spring 2027 set gives that game a full winter to sell the nostalgia first.

What’s Next

LEGO still has to publish the set number, the price and a real date, and none of that usually arrives more than a couple of months ahead. Until it does, the Great Deku Tree is the one on shelves — you can check the current price on the 2-in-1 if you would rather not wait eighteen months. The full Zelda hub has every game and set we have reviewed.

The Dadnology Take

A brick-built Epona is the kind of thing LEGO would have fudged five years ago, and the one photo suggests they did not fudge it. But a display statue with no minifigures and no price is the easiest set in the world to over-promise on, so hold the enthusiasm until we see the number. Spring 2027 is a long way to carry a wish list.

When does the LEGO Link and Epona set release?

Nintendo says spring 2027. LEGO has not published a set number, a price or an exact date yet, so treat the window as the only firm part.

How many pieces is the LEGO Zelda Link and Epona set?

1,750 pieces, according to Nintendo’s own 40th anniversary announcement. LEGO has not confirmed the figure on a product page yet.

Does the Link and Epona set come with minifigures?

No. Link and Epona are both brick-built at display scale rather than minifigure scale, which makes this the first non-minifigure Link LEGO has produced.
