Lego Legend of Zelda: Great Deku Tree set retires later this year

Lego has announced that the Lego Legend of Zelda: Great Deku Tree set will retire later this year. The news surprised many fans, since the set only launched in January 2025. It can now be found on the Lego online store’s "Last Chance to Buy" page, a clear sign that time is running out to pick it up.

Features of the Lego Great Deku Tree set

The Lego Great Deku Tree set is designed for experienced builders. It’s a 2-in-1 set, meaning fans can choose to build the Deku Tree from either "Breath of the Wild" or "Ocarina of Time". The first part of the build is the same for both versions, but halfway through, builders must decide which version they want to complete. The set contains 2,500 pieces and encourages creativity with a range of detailed minifigures.

Minifigures and accessories

The Lego Great Deku Tree set includes four minifigures: two from each game. For "Ocarina of Time", there is a young Link with his Deku Shield and Kokiri Sword, plus Link with his magical Ocarina. On the "Breath of the Wild" side, the set includes Link and Princess Zelda, along with several other brick-built characters such as Koroks, Deku Babas, and even Navi the Fairy.

Notably, the "Breath of the Wild" version of the Great Deku Tree features an animated face operated by a lever on the back, while the "Ocarina of Time" version has an opening that reveals a Skulltula monster. That gives the set an interactive element that should appeal to collectors and builders alike.

Sales timeline

There are several important dates and milestones for the Lego Great Deku Tree set:

• January 2025: The Lego Great Deku Tree set launches at major retailers.
• Spring 2026: The set appears on the Lego online store’s "Last Chance to Buy" page, warning fans that it will soon no longer be available.
• May 15, 2026: The official retirement date for the Lego Legend of Zelda: Great Deku Tree set, though fan sites predict it could sell out completely by July 2026.

Availability

For anyone hoping to get this set, acting quickly is important. The Great Deku Tree set is currently listed on the "Last Chance to Buy" page, and while no exact retirement date has been specified, fan site reports suggest a sellout before July 2026 is likely. The set is especially popular with collectors and Zelda fans.

Lego also offers other Nintendo-inspired building sets, such as the impressive Lego Ocarina of Time - Final Battle, which is not retiring yet. Now is the time for fans to decide whether they want to add the Great Deku Tree to their collection before it’s too late.

With the set’s availability winding down, the Lego Legend of Zelda: Great Deku Tree could become highly sought after on the secondary market, so it may be worth considering a purchase soon. The set offers not only a challenging build, but also the chance to recreate memorable moments from the classic Zelda games.
