Quick answer

Buy the Figma 626-DX Link: Tears of the Kingdom DX Edition if you want a highly poseable Link with a deep accessory loadout—Master Sword, Hylian Shield, Hylian Hood, Paraglider, Rocket and effect parts, Construct Bow, Arrows, and Ascend effect. Skip it if you only need a basic Link figure or prefer statues. It is a DX set, so the value is in the extras and articulation, not just the character.

What the DX Edition actually includes

The DX Edition is defined by its accessory count. You get three face plates (standard, smiling, shouting), the Master Sword, Hylian Shield, Hylian Hood, Paraglider, Rocket and rocket effect parts, Construct Bow, Arrows, and Ascend effect parts. That spread supports both Tears of the Kingdom-specific poses and general Zelda display. If you already own a base Link figma, the DX extras are the reason to upgrade—not the body alone.

Articulation and joint handling

Figma joints are designed for dynamic posing, but they need mindful handling. The shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees on Link allow the crouched bow draw, shield guard, and Ascend reach you see in game. Cloth parts like the Hylian Hood can restrict extreme twists, so plan poses around the hood rather than forcing it. If a joint feels tight, warm the figure slightly with your hands before moving it; if it feels loose, avoid leaving it in a stress pose long-term.

Display and part management

The DX set has many small parts—arrows, rocket effect, Ascend effect—so storage matters. Keep the original tray or a small parts box for swapping. For display, the Paraglider and Rocket effects take vertical space; a stand with a wide base helps if you pose Link mid-air. The Hylian Hood and Shield can hide joint seams, which makes them useful for cleaner shelf presentation. Rotate accessories every few months to avoid paint transfer or dust buildup in crevices.

Alternatives in the same scale

If you want a Link figure but not the full DX loadout, a standard Figma Link release may be enough. If you prefer a different Nintendo or anime character, the Figma 630 Yuuka Hayase from Blue Archive is a lower-cost option with a different aesthetic. For model kit builders, the Frame Arms #054 XFA-CnB Bergflinker 1/100 offers a completely different assembly experience rather than a pre-posed action figure. Match the product type to your hobby, not just the character.

  • If you want the most complete Link: Choose the DX Edition when you plan to display multiple poses and use the Paraglider, Rocket, or Ascend effects. The accessory count justifies the higher price over a standard Link. Buy the DX if you will actually use the extras.
  • If you are new to Figma: Start with a standard Figma release or a simpler character to learn joint handling before committing to a DX set with many small parts. DX sets reward experience; beginners may feel overwhelmed.
  • If you are in Canada: Order from a Canadian retailer to avoid cross-border shipping delays and duty surprises. Panda Hobby stocks Figma and can confirm availability before you commit. Check local stock and shipping terms first.
