Last month, it was revealed that Medicom will be bringing out a new Link figure based on his appearance in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The 1/6 scale piece is part of the Real Action Heroes series.

We now have some actual photos of the figure from Dengeki Hobby. See some photos below.

The new Link figure features detailed accessories (a bow, quiver full of regular arrows, one of the special arrows shown in first trailer, a sword, shield, a hooded cloak, and the Sheikah Slate) and interchangeable hands and heads that can be used to customize his appearance. Additionally, two heads can be switched out so that Link’s appearance changes to a shout. While the figure itself (the head in particular) is made of PVC, though the clothes are made from cloth.

It’s not yet known when the figure will be available. Expect it to cost 30,240 yen (roughly $285 USD) upon release.

Thanks to Dave H for the tip.

Nintendo gave us a first look at The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild during E3 2014 with a trailer. At that time though, the project hadn’t been completely shaped yet.

Series producer Eiji Aonuma reconfirmed to EDGE this month that the video was running in real time and in-engine. However, the scene shown was made especially for the trailer. When we saw Link shooting arrows at the Guardian on his horse, jumping off, and firing off one last arrow in mid-air at the enemy in slow motion, you couldn’t actually do that.

Aonuma mentioned how he “really wanted to put that in the game” and realized his vision following the trailer. It also made the team expand on Breath of the Wild in terms of story. Interestingly enough, the trailer ended up as “the basis for the whole game.”

Aonuma’s words in full:

Monopoly: Pokemon Kanto Edition came out a couple of years ago. Now USAopoly is working on another Pokemon set, this time for Johto.

You’ll find the following inside:

In this special Pokémon Johto Edition of Monopoly, players will travel through all eight Gyms and battle Gym leader Pokémon. Trainer Battle and Professor Elm cards might reward you for Pokémon encounters, or bring an unexpected surprise as players join Pikachu and friends on an adventure through the Johto region.

Monopoly: Pokemon Johto Edition contains six collectible tokens comprised of Totodile, Togepi, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Pichu and Pikachu. It also features a custom designed game board based on the Johto region, renames for Hotels, the Community Chest, and Chance Cards (to PokeMarts, Pokemon Centers, and Chance Cards respectively), plus custom themed Monopoly money.

Here are some photos:

When Pokemon Monopoly: Johto Edition is actually releasing is a bit unclear. BigBadToyStore estimates that it’s coming in August. It seems to be in stock on Amazon at the moment, but only from third-party sellers. It should be made available at more retailers soon in any case.

After teasing fans for quite some time, the next Sonic game from Sonic Team made its first appearance during the franchise’s 25th anniversary party Friday night. Project Sonic 2017 was given its first trailer, and NX was even confirmed as one of the project’s target platforms.

The video showed both Modern Sonic and Classic Sonic in action. Does that mean SEGA intends to make the title as a follow-up sorts to Sonic Generations? Apparently not. Takashi Iizuka, a well-known developer inside Sonic Team, said that the new game is not a sequel. That would certainly rule out Sonic Generations 2!

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
