Another Zelda collector here. I love the Zelda series so much that my daughters middle name is Zelda :D She'll probably hate me for it when shes older :lol:

At current I'm obtaining the DS, 3DS and Wii Zelda games brand new and sealed. I'm not overly fussed at trying to obtain the previous gen Zelda games sealed as they just cost too much. But everytime a new Zelda gets released, I'll be grabbing two copies, one to play, one to stay sealed.

My Zelda stuff is all over the place at the moment but I'll try and get it all together when I get home for a few pics.

That is awesome dude, I love the fact your daughters middle name is Zelda, I hope to have a child of my own one day and name her Zelda, Sheik! I reckon, she'd love that!

My copy of Tingle's Rosy Rupee land was sealed from ebay, paid £12.95 for it, well worth the money!

Can't wait to see your collection dude, if only more people interacted with us on this post ^.^

A gameshop that closed around here gave all theirr promo stuff away because it would've been thrown away otherwise, we just got around there at a lucky time I guess, place is gone now while they had other cutouts and stuff, should've taken everything. :lol:

Hi everyone, just signed up today and I am glad to find a Zelda collectors thread :D

I have a pretty nice collection that grew over the years (I started when playing Minish Cap on the GBA, and then bought all the previous & new games and lots of merchandise. I own a lot of Zelda-edition consoles, guidebooks, accessories...

I uploaded photos of the stuff I find unique / very likable in a photo album:
http://www.retrocollect.com/Community/jsb/Photos/716-Zelda.html

- The Zelda Box (Promo for Windwaker)
- A Link notebook from Club Nintendo
- A feather Stylus for the DS (Phantom Hourglass Promo)
- A Zelda Calculator in Famicom cartridge look (it works!)
- Tingle's Balloon fight for DS from Club Nintendo (JAP)
- Famicom classics Zelda 1 & 2 from Japan for GBA, very nice packaging
- Zelda Game & Watch (it works!)
- Zelda 1 for Famicom Disc System
- Zelda Board Game (it is playable... but not that much fun)

Now what I would still really like to have:
- The Silver DS Lite Version (only released in UK)
- all the Gold Trading Cards for the Twilight Princess cards (only got 2 so far)
- the Oracle of Seasons & Ages Special Edition

And I am interested in all kind of unique promo material. So in case you ever want to get rid of your stuff, just drop me a line :mrgreen:

Awesome to hear my friend!

You own the Zelda Board Game? I need to pick that up soon as well as the game and watch!

Thanks for sharing your collection with us :)

Even more stuff O_O I am in further awe than I was before!
Where did you pickup those combat cards from?

Also, I can never find any of the strategy guides any more, it's annoying!

I guess I'll need to venture out into the wild to find them!

Sweet collection Ozer!

I must ask, what is that wrapped in the Games Master green thing, I am intrigued!

Another person who can find Strategy Guides but I am unable too!

Keep us updated on any progress of your collection :)

My collection is only small. I only just got Twilight Princess on the gamecube this week - I paid £33 for it, which I know isn't cheap but prices on ebay are rapidly going upwards, so I figured I'd get it sooner rather than later. :D

Speaking of Zelda, if anyone wants to part with any of the three Game Boy Color games, CIB that is, please send me a PM. A shame that I own 50% of the GBC library but no Zelda game :(
