For nearly four decades and counting,The Legend of Zeldahas charmed players across the world with some of the finest exploration and puzzle-solving in the medium, not to mention the depth of its worldbuilding, and the charm of its eclectic casts of characters. As with any dedicated fandom, then, the race has always been on for those with enough disposable income to secure the coolest collectibles on the market.
And The Legend of Zelda has had alotof cool collectibles. Over the years, some have gotten pricier on the secondhand market than others. I’ve done some research now, in 2025, on which Zelda tie-in merchandise commands the most sizable stock of rupees. Here are my findings.
9Game Boy Advance SP: The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap Edition
At approximately$200 USDon the used market, this special model for the excellent Game Boy Advance SP, celebrating the equally excellent The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, has got to be one of the most stylish picks on the list. The sleek gold finish and Tri-Force cover both ooze class.
The Minish Cap model GBA SP is the AGS-001 variant, rather than its AGS-101 successor. This means the screen isn’t as bright, but since it’s frontlit (rather than backlit), its viewing angles are superior, and it can be played reasonably well outdoors. Although, if you’re shelling out a couple hundred bucks for one of these in the 2020s, you probably want to keep it safe inside…
8Monopoly: The Legend Of Zelda Collector’s Edition
I’m going to be real here. I hate Monopoly. But that’s just me. Maybe you adore it. Most seem to. And if you want a themed Monopoly game, you’re in luck - there are so many licensed adaptations that I don’t even know where to begin. Certainly, one of the coolest is The Legend of Zelda’s.
As best I can tell, there’s very little difference whatsoever between Zelda’s two Monopoly renditions; there’s the regular one, and the one that’s labeled on the box as the Collector’s Edition. Suffice it to say, the latter is rarer, and you can commonly find it via resellers for around$200-225 USD. Frankly, I’d recommend just rolling with the other one for cheaper, but that’s just me.
7Epoch Figurine Set: Link And Epona
Look upon this figurine and despair. But also prepare to spend around$300 USDif you want to experience that despair firsthand. Epoch’s licensed Link & Epona figurine has a fairly ordinary Link riding atop a truly terrifying Epona. The Majora’s Mask tie-in merch is sought-after not so much for its beauty as its scarcity.
6Limited Edition The Legend Of Zelda Game Boy Camera
We’re leaping ahead in the pricing now. Another limited run, a Nintendo Power temporary offer, this gold Legend of Zelda styling for the Game Boy Camera comes with a set of unique Ocarina of Time photos that cannot be found elsewhere. Well, except all over the internet, but that doesn’t count.
The Game Boy Camera really was not all that great, but it does have fun enough functionality with a handful of games in the handheld’s vast library. I’m not sure having an extra-special one is worth$1000 USDon average. I’m happy to report on it, though!
5Club Nintendo Golden Link And Epona Figurine
Club Nintendo had a ton of cheap rewards prizes. Still, it’s the thought that counts. Long gone are the days when we could exchange points earned from Nintendo game purchases for physical fare; now, you’re lucky if you can download a wallpaper from their website with them.
Every now and then, for out-of-this-world point totals, something awesome would be attainable. Albeit for a very, very short period of time. The golden Link and Epona figurine is the pinnacle of this. It would take over a hundred Nintendo title buys to have enough points for this, and yet, it famously sold out within minutes. Now? You’re looking at, on average,$1300 USDif you, like the virtual entirety of humanity, missed out on the figurine at the time.
4The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess - First Four Figures
On the other end of the spectrum, all of First Four Figures' models for The Legend of Zelda are fantastic. If you’re willing to spend three to four times as much money on something that looks far better than any amiibo, then the Breath of the Wild fare, at around $100 USD these days, is a bit of a steal. I love the LED-lit display stands, especially.
If, however, you’re wanting to go after some of First Four Figures' older content - say, its lovely Twilight Princess lineup - then you may be parting with around$1500 USDfor the Princess Zelda ‘Master Arts’ statue. I’ve seen it priced at $2000, even, but it doesn’t seem half as likely to sell at that price point.
And Ganondorf,whew.$2500 USD. Not even kidding. But dang, he looks superb.
3The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Master Edition
As of this writing, the first Reddit post result on Google for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Master Edition has a top comment from somebody who hoped it would not sell out in seconds. The comment, made nine years ago, when the Master Edition had been unveiled but Breath of the Wild had not yet launched, has predictably aged poorly. It did.
It was around $100 USD at the time, and it looked fairly cool, but I don’t know. I’d seen better collector’s editions in my time. Just as well; I couldn’t afford a Switch yet, anyway. If I had, and I happened to decide against all contemporaraneous logic to splurge on the Master Edition, I sure would be happier now. While I’ve seen efforts to sell this thing for as ridiculously high as $18,000 USD, it’s still a jaw-dropping thing to discover recent successful sales in the$2700 USDballpark.
2The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess - E3 2005 Nintendo DS Preview Trailer
At E3 2005, when the Nintendo DS was still quite new, and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was still a little over a year away from launching, media attendees and paying audiences alike were handed out a rather peculiar piece: a DS cartridge containing that year’s Twilight Princess trailer.
An oddity, to be sure. The degree of compression on this trailer is almost painful to behold. The image quality of a GameCube/Wii game’s preview footage pushing the Nintendo DS hardware to the brink is something you simply need to see to believe. Or maybe you believe me right off the bat, because how good was thisevergoing to look?
See for yourself, either by watching the video on YouTube, or spending about$7500 USD. I won’t tell you which route to take. But uh, I feel like one is easier than the other.
1Game Boy Advance SP: The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap Edition (24K Gold Version)
We’re bookending this list with the same thing it started on: that nifty Game Boy Advance SP with the Minish Cap markings. Except the price tag is alittledifferent this time. While the normal version can be had for $200 now, the profoundlyabnormalversion is virtually priceless.
Seven lucky winners got 24-karat gold-plated models, as shiny as they are impractical, as rare as to have been mythical for many years. Indeed, these are the Zelda merchandise equivalent of unicorns; plenty of players doubted their existence, and even when they were met with sufficient evidence, they figured that, surely, we’d never see one footage of one.
That changed a few years ago. There’s documented, verifiable, evidence of not one, but two, gold-plated Minish Cap GBA SPs. And like I said, you can probably pinpoint the price at, er,priceless. If you’ve heard of one being sold, let me know. The point is, good luck getting your hands on this without selling one of those hands in exchange.
