The franchise's 40th anniversary is almost here, and that's a great excuse to start hunting down the best Legend of Zelda merch like Link tearing through pots for rupees. If the strong-but-silent hero has taught us anything over the years, it's that collecting treasure is a noble pursuit... and now, there are more collectibles to find than ever.

Actually, there are almost too many. Finding the best Legend of Zelda merch can be like finding your way through the Lost Woods, so I've donned my best green cap to bring you a few recommendations and get the Goron rolling. There are options to suit every budget and era here, ranging from Nendoroids based on Majora's Mask to water bottles from Tears of the Kingdom.

In terms of standouts for us, I'd always gravitate towards amiibo. These are surprisingly high-quality statues that look great on a shelf or desk, so they're worth considering even if you won't ever use them on Switch as originally intended. Similarly, the Lego Zelda Deku Tree set is nothing short of a masterpiece in my opinion – it's a fantastic ode to games both old and new, marking it out as one of the best Lego sets overall. As for my Hardware Editor colleague and fellow Zelda-nerd Rosalie, the Bandai Proplica Master Sword earns her seal of approval.

Because there's more gear to choose from than any self-respecting hero of Hyrule can carry, I've split our recommendations into distinct sections to make things easier.

Best figures and toys

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

We're not exactly overrun with Zelda action figures, but even so, I'd say Nendoroids stand head and shoulders above the rest thanks to their extensive articulation and changeable expressions (see the range at Amazon). Want to keep costs down, though? I'd recommend amiibo. These are beautiful and surprisingly detailed statuettes, and most are available via Amazon.

Best replicas

Who amongst us hasn't daydreamed about wielding the Master Sword? There are many replicas out there right now, but like the many fake swords littering Link to the Past, they aren't all treasure. These are the best we've seen.

Best homeware, apparel, and books

Want to add a little Hyrulian flavor to your day-to-day? I'd make a beeline for Paladone. It's the best in the business for keepsakes and kitchenware based on gaming, if you ask me - they're of a reliably good quality. The full range is available via Amazon.

Best accessories

You won't struggle to find cases and controllers based on the franchise, but I'd say PowerA is the most consistently reliable at pumping out cool designs. You can browse the range at Amazon.

Best Legend of Zelda merch in the UK

Seeing as there's so much gear based on The Legend of Zelda series, I've divided our recommendations into categories. No matter what you're in the mood for, UK fans clearly have the Triforce on their side; there's a lot of great merch here you won't find elsewhere.

Figures and toys

If you're tracking down the best Zelda figures, I'd go straight for the Nendoroid range. Besides being cute as a button, they're incredibly expressive and very posable so that you can display them however you want. You can check the full range at Amazon. Want something cheaper, on the other hand? The Zelda amiibo are universally excellent, rich in detail but low on cost (as you can see via the range at Nintendo).

Best replicas

If you're anything like me, you used to dream about having a Master Sword on your shelf - and now, you can. There are some incredible replicas based on the series available now, and I've listed a couple of favorites below.

Best homeware, apparel, and books

If you'd like to inject a bit of Hyrulian spice into your everyday life, don't miss Paladone. This merch company is one of the best in the business when it comes to gaming gear, so far as I'm concerned - its products are always inventive and of a high enough quality that you'll be pleased to have them at home. You can check out the full range via Amazon.

Best accessories

There are countless controllers, cases, and accessories based on the Zelda franchise, but these are my favorites.
