The latest Zelda set is generating a lot of buzz, so figuring out where to buy Lego Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - The Final Battle isn't a bad idea. A lot of eagerly-anticipated kits go on backorder shortly after becoming available to pre-order, for example.
While that hasn't happened yet, I can't say I'd risk hanging around for a better offer. Kits like this don't tend to get a discount until they reach third party retailers, and seeing as you can only buy Lego Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - The Final Battle direct from Lego right now, full price is unfortunately the best we can hope for. Plus, you could wind up waiting longer if it goes on the dreaded backorder. This hasn't happened yet and there's no guarantee it will, but I've seen more than a few for-grown-ups display models become unavailable due to demand on the day of launch.
Is there a timeline on when this model will arrive at other retailers? As with so many of the best Lego sets, there's likely to be a slight delay of a few months. In addition, Lego store exclusives typically end up at just one other store, at least in my experience. Because many of these for-adults kits (including the Deku Tree, roughly three months after launch) make the jump to Amazon eventually, I'd bet my rupees on Ocarina of Time - The Final Battle finding its way there before too long.
This will also be our best chance of a discount. From what I can tell, models of this kind rarely get a price cut from Lego itself. It's not impossible, of course, but I don't tend to see higher-end display pieces get savings when I'm tracking down price cuts. Meanwhile, models often enjoy a bargain via third-party retailers such as Amazon... particularly around sale season, be it Prime Day in the summer or Black Friday in fall.
No matter what, we'll have to wait until March 1, 2026 to get our hands on this model. Are you going to dive in?
