Nintendo The Legend of Zelda Link Shield, Official The Legend of Zelda Costume Accessory

Got this for my son's Halloween costume and it's plastic, so it's not like it's built to last forever, but it's still shockingly durable and he continues to play with it almost every day!

This is a nice quality design/painted Link shield that will work great for a costume accessory. If you are buying it to be "used" in play fights, etc. I don't think it would last very long as it is pretty thin and I suspect the straps would tear at the plastic holder ends pretty quickly.However, if you want it for a costume accessory then I think it is great - specifically because it it thin, which makes it lighter and easier for kids to lug around while going out for Halloween candy runs, etc.It does feel a little expensive for what it is but I am pretty sure that is the going rate for such things nowadays.

I recently purchased the Disguise Link Shield Costume, and it was a hit! The design is vibrant and captures the iconic look perfectly. The material is sturdy and has held up well during wear. It fits comfortably and adds a great touch to my Link cosplay. I love how it stands out at conventions and parties. Overall, it’s an ultimate accessory for any Zelda fan looking to enhance their costume.

Just wish it was a little bit more sturdier and better made and the straps are too short

Purchased as a component of our son's Link costume, this is an excellent quality item. The detailing on the front of the shield is consistent with the design of Link's shield in Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Our son is an average sized 8 year old and this shield is sized just slightly big for him. There are two adjustable straps on the back of the shield to allow for it to easily be positioned on one's back. When held in defensive mode, the shielded arm can go through the strap closest to the elbow, then grasp the other strap near the top to securely hold the shield. Before this arrived I anticipated needing to "beef up" the inside to improve the strength of what I imagined would be a very thin shield. That has not been the case for two reasons. 1. Unless someone uses this shield in actual defense during hard fighting, the structure is strong enough so as not to be concerned of cracking or breakage. 2. I like the functionality and style of the two simple yet intelligently designed and placed straps, and modifying the back of the shield to reinforce the structure might mean removing them. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and am glad that I didn't have to construct a shield on my own!

Lightweight, but looks good in-person. A little expensive for what it is, but it made the kid happy :)

Great replica that matches games and seems to be a good quality plastic build. My son loved pairing it with his Link costume and he’ll get to have fun and play with it for the foreseeable future. Good price for completing the costume and to use as a toy.

The Hylian Shield is eye-catching with its vibrant colors and well-designed features. Its size is just right, offering an authentic touch for fans.While it's great for display, the plastic feels a bit thin and might seem a little flimsy. It's more suited for a decorative role than as a sturdy item. For collectors who prioritize aesthetics over durability, it makes for a nice addition.Overall, it's a visually appealing piece, especially for fans of the series. Just be mindful that it's more about the looks than being a heavy-duty shield. If you're okay with that, it's a cool choice for showcasing your fandom.
