Look out for Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening Character Collectibles all over Koholint Island. There are 10 of these displayable figurines, and each one resembles a well-known Mario enemy - a nod to the fact that both this remake and the original contain enemies from Mario games that don't appear in any other Zelda game. With every figurine placed correctly and every dungeon that the player beats, a new figurine is up for grabs in the Trendy Shop in Mabe Village. Here's how to collect every Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Character Collectible.

Bow Wow, our ever-faithful companion, is only available after the player has completed the Main Story of the game. Bow Wow naturally belongs in the house where the real one is situated.

Unfortunately, there’s no grand prize for placing all of the figurines. However, after collecting Bow Wow in the Trendy Shop, the shopkeeper awards you with a Chamber Stone, which has the Monsters+ effect (which adds more monsters to your created dungeons), and reduces the price of the Trendy Shop to 5 rupees.
