Save Hyrule one brick at a time
LEGOs are great toys that allow people with spatial awareness and creativity to build to their heart's content. They also have pre-built kits for those who like to follow instructions. The company is now known for the collaboration sets they produce. From Star Wars to Harry Potter, some of the biggest franchises have had LEGO sets created specifically for them. One of LEGO's more intriguing collaborations is with video game maker Nintendo. With many sets based on the Super Mario Bros. franchise, there are a number of LEGO sets to choose from. The official X (formerly Twitter) accounts for LEGO and Nintendo of America announced a new set Tuesday for the Great Deku Tree from The Legend of Zelda series, scheduled to ship September 1.

According to the website, the set costs $299.99, is for ages 18 and up, and comes with 2,500 pieces. Lego is currently accepting pre-orders.
Nintendo notes this will be a “2 in 1” set that will include two variations of the Deku Tree from The Legend of Zelda series, one from the Nintendo 64 classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and the other from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Nintendo Switch. The set will also feature Link's home in Kokiri Village, a variety of monsters from the series, and LEGO minifigures for Link and Princess Zelda.

This looks like a fun set for LEGO and The Legend of Zelda fans, as there aren't many official buildable dioramas for the franchise
