Rejected Zelda LEGO Ideas projects we wish were real

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is on the way, but thus far there still isn’t LEGO Zelda.
This is not for lack of trying on the part of the LEGO Ideas community. Here are a few of the most popular Zelda LEGO Ideas sets, all of which have, alas, not been approved to become official sets:
Wes Talbot’s Iron Knuckle Encounter was way ahead of its time. While this tiny diorama scene didn’t make the cut in 2014, it’s exactly the kind of set that the LEGO Group is churning out in 2022.
King of Red Lions by flailx aimed to give LEGO the Wind Waker treatment, although you can achieve something similar by squinting at a Powerpuff Girl minifigure.
Mingles went so far as to 3D model a variety of Zelda weapons for The Ocarina of Time finale. Alas, these new elements made the set unfeasible.
The Legend of Zelda project by Ragaru gives off some strong Twilight Princess vibes, and Breath of the Wild stables by Hanwasyellowfirst (that’s a great name) is a phenomenal Breath of the Wild build.
Finally, we have three different Hyrule Castles, two by BrickGallery, one by Artem Biziaev.
Despite these setbacks, LEGO Ideas fans keep cranking these Zelda builds out. Perhaps with Tear of the Kingdom on the horizon, one might finally get approval.

Happy to report from the future I just preordered the first ever legend of Zelda Lego Set and it's glorious

I’m actually shocked the stable didn’t get the green light

I'm so excited for The Great Deku Tree 2 in 1 revealed for September!

Lego The legend of Zelda might happen even this year. But it is not yet confirmed.

I don’t understand making a Zelda Ideas set honestly. At this point they have a Nintendo license they’re not gonna not be planning their own sets

[blackartsviper]

The stable and Ocarina Of Time Hyrule castle look cool

[TheFutureJedi]

Vonado makes their own, I suggest she king them

Okay if they do make a legend of Zelda and if they go with Minifigures ganondorf will have to be have the long legs because he's 8 inches tall in legend of Zelda and links only 4 in

They'll never be approved cause Nintendo don't like sharing.. Lego ideas aren't enough for Lego to get individual Nintendo licences. They only bought a licence cause they thought they could churn out a bunch of sets to make back the cost of said licence

Lego sucks these days they give us nothing we want there company is so bad they could make so much money if they gave us stuff we wanted plus they already have Mario and Zelda is the same company just give it to us you powehungry executives

I think LEGO is incompetent enough to give Zelda the LEGO Mario treatment with fat boxed characters and block head figure pops instead..’
