Reports from retailer listings and industry outlets indicate the LEGO The Legend of Zelda Great Deku Tree set is entering retirement, potentially becoming unavailable for purchase in the near future.

The set is a licensed collaboration between LEGO and Nintendo that celebrates two landmark entries in Nintendo's franchise history: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (originally released on Nintendo 64) and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (released on Nintendo Switch).

Set details and features

- Piece count: The Great Deku Tree set contains roughly 2,500 pieces and is designed as a large display model combining elements from Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild.

- Included figures and builds: The set ships with minifigure-style renditions of Link and Princess Zelda, plus buildable characters and creatures such as Hestu the Korok, multiple smaller Koroks, Deku Babas, Navi the Fairy, a Deku Sprout and a Skulltula.

- Iconic props: Notable model elements include a Master Sword pedestal inspired by Breath of the Wild and Link’s House drawn from Ocarina of Time.

- Interactive mechanisms: The set features mechanical elements—one configuration animates the Great Deku Tree’s face via a lever, while the Ocarina of Time version includes a mouth-opening mechanism that reveals a descending Skulltula.

Retail availability and what “retirement” means

Retail reports suggest the set is being retired, meaning LEGO will cease regular production and the set may be removed from retailer inventories.

Sources indicate the set may no longer be available starting in July, though official confirmation from LEGO or Nintendo has not been published.

While stock remains, the Great Deku Tree set is still listed at major retailers including Amazon and other national chains.

Context for collectors and fans

The Great Deku Tree joins a broader set of LEGO releases based on Nintendo IP, aimed at collectors and longtime fans of The Legend of Zelda.

For players familiar with the franchise across Nintendo platforms—from the Nintendo 64 original of Ocarina of Time to Breath of the Wild on Nintendo Switch—this set is expressly designed to evoke franchise nostalgia while offering buildable display pieces.

If you are considering purchase, check current listings at authorized retailers.

Reports of retirement suggest this may be a final window to buy new stock from mainstream outlets before prices begin to shift on the secondary market.
