While fans are eagerly anticipating a sequel to the masterful Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, that doesn’t mean they’re quite ready to move on from the original. Amazing fan projects have popped up online, including a beautiful scale model of the Temple of Time. Now, a creative Redditor has built custom Guardian Amiibo that would look great on any fan’s shelf.
Breath of the Wild is a divisive entry in the Legend of Zelda canon, with some fans praising the open world and the attention paid to exploration of Hyrule, while others decried the lack of dungeons and a sense of emptiness to the world. Fans have debated how Breath of the Wild compares to other Zelda titles, but those that love the game have built a thriving fan community around it.
The three custom Guardian variants pictured below are based on the three Guardian types found in Breath of the Wild. The Turret, Skywatcher, and Stalker Guardians are all represented here. These wonderful fan creations were created on a 3D printer and then hand painted by Redditor MarkelangeloStudios. The figures are working Amiibo, with the NFC chips embedded in the base of the Guardians. These ancient relics make Link’s adventure through Hyrule a nightmare, activating suddenly and honing their lasers on him with one directive: Kill. While not much is known about what role the Guardians will play in Breath of the Wild 2, fans have a number of theories about what could be in store.
Despite a number of responses to Markelangelo’s post asking if the figures are on sale, fan projects like this are often meant for the creator to enjoy themselves, or made as a special request for a friend. These Amiibo will not be found on an online store any time soon, but they speak to how much fans still dig Breath of the Wild‘s style. While the Amiibo may be a one off, a Ghibli-inspired poster of Breath of the Wild is available for fans to purchase, so some fan projects do find their way into mass production.
While it seems that fans are still content to revisit the Hyrule presented in Breath of the Wild, and dream up their own fan creations, many are looking forward to the sequel, and how it could possibly be improved over the original BOTW.
An easy pick for game of the year in 2017, Breath of the Wild is still generating headlines 3 years later. That kind of longevity is impressive.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is available now for Nintendo Switch & Wii U.
