Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Link on Epona is a phenomenal piece! I actually sold mine off pretty recently.

Not sure how you plan to display them, but keep in mind that they're not in scale with one another. A bothersome discrepancy for some collectors. Unfortunately, the poll wasn't in favor of a massive 1/4th scale Epona.

and that is exactly the reason this is the only zelda figure made by F4F I don't have in the collection.

Completely understandable. That's, more or less, why I decided to part with mine.. Among a few other minor issues I had with the paint application.

When I first got it I wasn't necessarily bothered by the scale difference because I hadn't purchased any of the previous statues in the Master Arts line, but when Zelda(a must have) was shown, it started to bug me. Figured I'd send it to a home where it could get the appreciation it deserves.

In my opinion, the best way for them to mitigate that particular issue would be to produce other dioramas in 1/6th to match it. ie. WW Link and the KoRL, SS Link and his Crimson Loftwing, OoT/MM Link and young Epona etc.

Now is definitely the time to jump at him! Last I heard, he's going for a steal on BBTS.

yeah but it would still bug me because they decided to make him part of the Master Arts line... It just really doesn't fit that line; not 1/4th scale and the exclusive was that ugly bronzified version >_< I'll just hold my breath for an 1/4th scale Link and young Link on Epona 1/6 OT/MM

I wish F4F could be more like SS in the way that there's more likelihood of popular characters having revisits in the same format. Like Cap has how many PFs now?

F4F has the Master Arts line but that's pretty much just Twilight Princess so 1/4 Link will surely be that version, maybe Skyward Sword.

I'm going to get their Master Arts Link whenever it happens but I'd prefer an OOT 1/4 Link. I'll be glad to have a 1/4 Link at all and I know the newer design has more details but OOT is the game that captivated me the most. I'd prefer that Link.
