LEGO might have unintentionally confirmed a future Legend of Zelda set through a copyright strike. Fans have hoped to expand their LEGO collection with Nintendo builds for a long time, but the only Nintendo IP to have received a set so far is Super Mario. But now it seems the time for a ZeldaLEGO set may have finally come.The Super Mario-themed Lego sets are a big hit with Nintendo fans, ranging in price from $6 to $270. One of the more impressive models include The Mighty Bowser, which stands tall and proud at 32 cm. But fans can also get their hands on Princess Peach's castle, Bowser's airship, or even a Nintendo Entertainment System set. No wonder those who enjoy Legend of Zelda wished for a similar treatment, hoping for some epic sets to add to their merchandise collection. Now it looks like there is a possibility their dream will come true.After years of hoping and imagining what sort of Legend of Zelda collection might see the light of day, the possibility of a Deku Tree Lego set leaked. Apparently, a marketing survey was sent to someone about future products, and it included the aforementioned name. This definitely raised excitement and sent fans' imaginations soaring about what it might look like or contain. Various different YouTube channels covered the rumors of the Legend of Zelda set, among them was Nintendo Prime. In an interesting turn of events the channel received a copyright strike by LEGO and the reason for the strike was given as a "Confidential unreleased novelty." Given the circumstances, LEGO can hardly deny the possibility of a future set now.
Nintendo Prime, therefore, tweeted out the screenshot of the copyright strike and urged all other channels that covered it to take their videos down. However, at the same time celebrated the apparent confirmation of the Legend of Zelda set itself. While most fans immediately became ecstatic, some doubted the reasoning, saying the copyright strike doesn't necessarily mean the rumors are true. Nintendo Prime pointed out that the more correct wording could be that it's still not guaranteed that the set will see the light of day. But LEGO probably wouldn't submit a strike against news that have no leg to stand on.
Fans are eagerly awaiting an official announcement from LEGO. However, it's impossible to tell when the official news may come, if at all. Although, timing it with the release of Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom would make a lot of sense.
