The LEGO Great Deku Tree set, a 2,500-piece model inspired by The Legend of Zelda games Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild, is retiring and quickly selling out globally. The set features minifigures including Link, Young Link, and Princess Zelda, and offers two builds representing the iconic Great Deku Tree from the Nintendo 64 and Switch-era games [1, 2].
Priced at around $300 USD, the set has become highly sought after amid the announcement of a remake of Ocarina of Time for Nintendo Switch 2, shown during the August 30 Nintendo Direct event, which featured a new cinematic and Young Link character model [1, 2]. Myles Obenza of IGN described the set as one that "can be swapped between the character's likenesses from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" [2].
LEGO has ceased manufacturing the Great Deku Tree set, which means no new stock will be produced. Official LEGO stores, the Nintendo Store, and most major retailers have sold out the set, with Walmart identified as one of the last remaining sellers still carrying inventory [1, 2]. The set's official retirement was scheduled for the end of July 2026, after which it was no longer widely available [2].
In addition to the Great Deku Tree, a smaller LEGO set called The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time — The Final Battle remains available, featuring 1,003 pieces and priced at $129.99 [1].
The Zelda franchise continues to build momentum with the upcoming live-action film planned for release in 2027 [1]. Meanwhile, collectors and fans are snapping up the Great Deku Tree set ahead of its permanent discontinuation, driven by excitement around new Zelda projects and the recent remake announcement [1, 2].
