Remember the joy of pulling out your sword for the first time in Ocarina of Time? That nostalgia is about to hit your wallet, because the new Ocarina of Time remake amiibo are now up for pre-order. But here's the twist: if you're in the UK, you'll need to channel your inner patient Hylian—these little figures aren't landing on your doorstep just yet.
What's got me truly obsessed, though, is the Young Link amiibo. It's not just a simple 3D render of the hero—it's a love letter to the classic Zelda artwork that defined our childhoods. The pose, the expression, the way his tunic flows—it's like stepping straight out of the official art from the original game's manual. For long-time fans, this is pure, uncut nostalgia.
But why does this matter? Because these amiibo aren't just for display—they unlock in-game goodies in the Ocarina of Time remake, adding that extra layer of connection between the physical and digital worlds. If you've been collecting amiibo for years, this is a no-brainer addition to your shelf. And if you're new to the game, well, there's never been a better time to start.
The pre-order situation, however, is a bit of a mixed bag. While US fans can lock in their orders now, UK players are left waiting—no confirmed date yet, which is a real kick in the Deku Nuts. It's a pattern we've seen before, but that doesn't make it sting any less.
In the meantime, I'm already planning my display setup. The Young Link will sit right next to my Ocarina of Time cartridge, a shrine to the game that changed everything. And let's be honest—when you see that artwork-inspired pose up close, you'll understand why I'm so hyped.
So, will you be snagging these amiibo? Or are you holding out for a UK release date? Drop your thoughts below—I'm dying to know if you're as smitten with that Young Link design as I am.
