Zelda fans will need to act fast to get one of the 350 produced.

First 4 Figures has just opened pre-orders for an Exclusive Fire Sage Darunia statue. This exclusive version of Darunia, limited to 350 pieces worldwide, is only available from the First 4 Figures website for $209.99.

Zelda fans will recognize Darunia, the leader of the Goron race and eventual Sage of Fire, from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

First 4 Figures originally released a Darunia figure in 2011 that is nearly identical to the new exclusive version. The only difference between the old Darunia and the exclusive model is a design change given to the figure’s base. The original version features a carpet from Darunia’s room, while the exclusive version’s base is meant to look like the fire medallion he stands on in the Chamber of Sages.

First 4 Figures has also hinted that they are working on making the other Ocarina of Time Sages on their official Facebook page.

I have quite a few of these but had to skip this one and a few others. I just don't have space anymore. After I get Tails and the other 2 Ninja Turtles, I'm done for years.
Nintendo players and One Piece readers, just better people.

I'm really not to happy about this. I purchased the original Darunia two years ago. This just seems like a cheap tactic for First 4 Figures to make more money by, in a way, re-releasing a previous figure that was supposed to be limited edition. I'm also sick of how nearly every figure they make gets a standard and exclusive version these days.

I was interested until I saw the price.$200+? Hell no. Even $100 would be over my acceptable price.

It may sound bad, but for the size and quality it's not a bad price for this figure. Add to that the extreme rarity. I've purchased every Nintendo figure from F4F and can say the quality is top notch. Some of the figures I've purchased are now worth well over $1,000.

I am sure it is high quality, but I personally can not justify that much for something that will just sit there doing nothing. But others would find it worth it. I hope they enjoy it.
