Ocarina of Time: Zelda Sheik figurine

Ocarina of Time was recently made available for you to download on the Virtual Console (if you don’t mind the killer Wii point costs), and we’re sure this event will trigger a bit of nostalgia for the fans who remember its Nintendo 64 (N64) incarnation. Now, for the case of the truly truly loyal (read: hardcore) fans, no classic game is complete without matching figurines.

   

In line with this, First 4 Figures is announcing another of their Legend of Zelda collectibles for later this year. This particular resin figure is for the mysterious Sheik.

Sheik was Princess Zelda’s alter-ego in Ocarina of Time, occasionally popping up in Ocarina‘s plot to help Link along with his quest. Fans may remember gender issues for this character, given that Sheik was criticised for being far too masculine to have been Zelda. But whether this alter-ego was created by (chest-shrinking) magical enchantments or by some other means, it still makes for a cool collectible to go with your other Link-related paraphernalia.

• Dimensions: 9 inches tall
• SRP: $ 109.99
• Expected shipping date: Q3 2007
• Edition size: 2,500 worldwide
• Artist: Siamak Roshani
• Base Concept Artist: James West
