The beloved hero Link from the popular "The Legend of Zelda" series gets his own action figure based on his appearance in upcoming game "Breath of the Wild."

Shunning his iconic forest green threads in favor of new sky blue ones, Link will be getting a highly detailed 12" action figure made into his likeness based off the latest "Legend of Zelda" title.

The action figure will be manufactured by Medicom, makers of the popular Bearbrick toys. The costume is intricately made from fabric by Mieko Akimoto and the figure itself is produced by PERFECT-STUDIO, the same company who produced the "Skyward Sword" Link action figure.

The figure, which is part of the Real Action Hero series, will cost a whopping 30,240 Yen including tax, which is approximately $290.

The Link figure comes with the hero's arsenal of weapons, including a bow and arrow, a sword and shield, and a gray hood you can put on Link's head.

The most impressive part of the figure is Link's face, which has been sculpted nicely to match his video game counterpart, according to Twinfinite.The figure is also fully poseable and has great articulation, Forbes reported.

Based on the Taghobby site listing, however, the figure still does not have an exact release date, and there are no options to pre-order as of the moment.

The release date of the action figure may possibly coincide with the release date for Link's much awaited next adventure, "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild."

The latest "Zelda" title is still slated for a March 2017 release, despite many news outlets reporting its delay. The game is one of the most anticipated games since it was first announced.

"The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" will be released on the Nintendo Wii U and the company's upcoming console, the Nintendo NX.
