As you may know by now, First 4 Figures is a well known entity responsible for creating amazingly-detailed figures, covering an array of game franchises from Super Mario to Worms. It recently announced the latest instalment to its collection, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker series, and has began this lighter art style with the Dark Lord himself, Ganondorf - Toon Ganondorf, to be specific.
Similar to some of its existing models, Ganondorf is available to pre-order in both regular and exclusive versions, with the exclusive containing "bright LEDs which pulse rhythmically, giving the impression of flowing water". The exclusive version costs $269.99, which starves your wallet by an extra $20.00 should you not prefer its regular version counterpart. Whichever version a purchaser chooses, they shouldn't be disappointed with the figure's stature, for it measures in at a Dodongo-sized 15 inches tall.
Will you be forking out your rupees on this? If so you'd better pre-order quickly, for First 4 Figures has stated that due to this model being the first in the series its stock is low in numbers. Both figure versions are stated to become available in quarter three of 2015.

Wow, that looks better than the one I got for Wind Waker HD, it's way more detailed, plus those flashing lights. He's, like, in the same pose, though.
Man I would love to see WW costumes in Hyrule Warriors. I know that it won't happen, but I just love the art direction of these characters in that game.
@Nicolai For 250+ dollars, I would hope this figure looks better
I'm satisfied with the version I have.
I'll stick with the one I got for with the Limited Edition. The quality of that thing is superb especially for $10 more than the normal version. If the Skull Kid figure is half as nice I'll be happy. Still can't believe I managed to snag one of those.
@Tsurii897 Same
The make awesome figures no doubt but I will be fine with my WW HD tiny figure. My wallet can't handle F4F since they realease a new awesome figure every couple weeks.
I'm happy with my WW limited edition ganon
But I recently received my Vyse statue from first 4 figures which is absolutely bootyful So I can't spend anymore money for a while anyway... But if these guys do a badass toon link i'll bite lol
Don't get me wrong, but why is he black?
Welp...if you didn't get the collector's edition of WWHD here is your ganondorf statue. I prefer the TP statue they did instead.
No sword-in-the-nose pose?
The handpainted parts on my Ganondorf (The WW HD one) could be better but for the price it's quite ok. I kinda like my blue shell better though in all its simplicity ^__^ I hope Zelda U gets some cool limited edition. I need Link.
I already have the one from WWHD but I do think this big guy is quite impressive looking!
However, there's no way in HECK I would pay $269.00 for a figurine. Their stuff is gorgeous, but it's WAY overpriced IMO.
@Sir_Anthony Cause you can never go back
I'm sorry... I could buy another Wii U with that money...
I think Ganondorf was in the sun for too long.
The figure looks very nice, too bad I don't buy stuff online...yet.
I swear there's 3 kind of figures 4 Figures makes: horrible modeled figures, Horribly painted figures, and really good figures. This falls in the 2nd category, skin-tone is way off.
Also, they used pretty much the same pose as that figure from the WWHD Collector's Edition. A figure of Ganondorf turned into rock would've been much better, although too spoiler-y. Or maybe one of him holding Link and raising his arm with the Triforce resonating. Would be a good excuse to give a bit of light to the figure itself, instead of just putting some needless light light in the base, thus making the figure at least $50 more expensive.
Hmm... not gonna bite. it's the same pose as the WWHD figure and, though it' nicer and bigger, it doesn't strike me quite as much because it's the same pose as an already made figure that is cheaper and pretty well made.
However, give me a epic Toon Link fighting some baddies, or him and The King of Red Lions, or something involving Tetra/Zelda. Medli, Makar, Fado, and Laruto. ALL of these characters I would absolutely LOVE as First4Figures.
Beautiful, but far to expensive!
