Quick snapshot
Nintendo Japan has announced roughly 70 new Zelda-themed items landing at Animate stores starting Friday, October 2. The celebration runs through January 11, 2027, and it’s mostly a love letter to the two big open-world hits: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
What kind of stuff are we talking about?
Short answer: a little bit of everything. Expect home decor, fashion odds-and-ends, tiny accessories, and enough trinkets to outfit an entire Hyrule cottage.
Fan-favorite highlights
Aurora acrylics — collectible acrylic stands inspired by both Breath of the Wild (six designs) and Tears of the Kingdom (nine designs). They shift color depending on the viewing angle. Price: about 2,200 yen (roughly 12 euros).
Breath of the Wild curtain — a big gamer curtain sized 108 x 178 cm for bringing Hyrule vibes to your living room. Price: about 5,500 yen (roughly 30 euros).
Kolog slippers — soft, cozy slippers with Kolog flair to keep your feet quest-ready. Price: about 2,420 yen (roughly 13 euros).
B2 posters — seven different poster designs for slapping onto any blank wall that needs a little Zelda energy. Price: about 1,100 yen (roughly 6 euros).
Nail stickers — tiny Triforces, Master Swords, and Kologs to decorate your talons. Price: about 990 yen (roughly 5 euros).
House slippers — a different pair for lounging around when you’re not slaying monsters. Price: about 2,750 yen (roughly 15 euros).
Accessory pouch — a small pouch for cords, coins, or mysterious Rupees. Price: about 3,080 yen (roughly 17 euros).
Lipstick case — for gamers who need their lip armor as much as their shield. Price: about 2,860 yen (roughly 16 euros).
Curtain tiebacks — the tiny details matter: two-piece tieback set that adds a gaming flourish to your drapes. Price: about 7,920 yen (roughly 44 euros).
Bonus perks and how to snag extras
During the Animate Fair, spending 5,500 yen on Zelda goods gets you a free set of six bookmarks. Eligible purchases include CDs, books, and games — so your impulse buys might earn you swag.
There’s also a daily digital treat: use the Nintendo Store app’s GPS check-in while in Japan and you can collect a Navi sticker (yes, the fairy). It’s limited to one per day and requires a Nintendo account set to the Japan region, so international accounts may not work.
Will any of this come to your country?
Possibly. Past pop-up shops and special events have ferryed Japanese Zelda merchandise overseas (Spain has seen similar pop-ups before), so some items might show up outside Japan via pop-up stores or special retail events. It’s not guaranteed, but keep your eyes peeled if you don’t have a Tokyo-planned vacation.
Final thoughts
Seventy items means there’s something for every kind of Zelda stan — from the collector who wants color-changing acrylics to the person who just needs a pair of game-themed slippers. If you’re tempted, mark the date, budget some Rupees, and prepare for cute chaos.
