The Legend Of Zelda Metal Puzzles Restocked At Amazon - Still On Sale For Only $15
Hanayama's trio of Zelda brain teasers feature the Triforce, Master Sword, and Hyrule Crest
All three officially licensed metal puzzles themed around The Legend of Zelda are still on sale for over 50% off at Amazon after Cyber Monday. You can get brain teasers shaped as the Triforce, Hyrule Crest and Master Sword for $15 each. The Triforce puzzle sold out earlier this week, but Amazon has replenished its stock. Unfortunately, Amazon currently estimates orders any of the puzzles placed today, December 4, won't arrive until mid-January.
The Legend of Zelda: Hanayama Metal Brain Teasers
- Hyrule Crest -- $15 (
$32) | Level 4 - Hard - Triforce -- $15 (
$32) | Level 5 - Hard - Master Sword-- $15 (
$32) | Level 6 - Grand Master
Designed by Japanese manufacturer Hanayama, each Zelda brain teaser has the same objective: take it apart, then put it back together. While that may sound pretty easy, these are dubbed brain teasers for a reason. Hanayama's puzzles have Mensa difficulty ratings ranging from one to six, and all three Zelda puzzles are Level 4 (hard) or higher. For those unfamiliar with Mensa, it's a society for people with high IQs (98th percentile or better).
Even if you can't figure out how to solve the brain teaser, you're at least getting a high-quality metal collectible to display on your desk. Hanayama notes that these puzzles are suitable for ages 12 and up--but many adults will likely run into some trouble trying to deconstruct and rebuild these puzzles.
The "simplest" Zelda puzzle is the Hyrule Crest with a 4 rating. It tasks you with trying to untangle a metal chain from a gorgeous diecast Hylian Crest.
See at AmazonThe Triforce Set is marked as Level 5 (Expert) and asks you to free a triangular insert from the center of a Triforce.
Note: The Triforce puzzle has already sold out once this week, but it's back in stock as of December 4.
See at AmazonThe most difficult Zelda brain teaser is the Master Sword--which carries the max rating of 6 and is almost certainly more frustrating than the Water Temple from Ocarina of Time. Your goal with this one is to somehow remove the Master Sword from its resting place, then figure out a way to get it reinstalled.
See at AmazonOnce you work your way through all these Zelda puzzles, you can check out the rest of the Hanayama catalog, which includes dozens of puzzles of varying difficultly. These puzzles often have gorgeous designs that'll look great on coffee tables or home offices, and since most are quite small, you can bring them with you while traveling to give your brain a workout.
Hanayama's puzzles aren't the only Zelda products available for 50% off at Amazon during Cyber Week. All of Dark Horse's superb books about the series are also up for grabs for extremely low prices. And if you haven't picked up the official guidebooks for Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, you can save 50% on those, too. The Breath of the Wild Guide is the Expanded Edition, which covers all of the DLC, while the Tears of the Kingdom guide is the gorgeous Collector's Edition.
