It’s hard to believe, but Hollow Knight’s long-awaited sequel, Silksong, is finally launching for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, Switch, and PC on September 4. If you’re keeping track, that’s next Thursday–so we’ll be playing it soon. However, if you’re looking for a way to pass the final few days until Silksong’s launch, or just want a neat way to display your love for the series, you should check out these unofficial–but highly reviewed–Hollow Knight building sets available for under $20 at Amazon.
$16
While the 329-piece display is not an official Hollow Knight product–and therefore does not feature any Hollow Knight branding or trademarks–it certainly looks the part. The kit lets you build a cute 5-inch Hollow Knight figure with his iconic Nail sword, a bench for him to sit on, and a 10-inch tall streetlamp that actually lights up.
The set is from BuildingBoat, which is one of numerous Lego clone companies out there, and it’s important to note that the instructions may not be as easy to follow. That said, this kit seems small enough that it shouldn’t be much of an issue. You can grab the kit for $16 at Amazon.
$18
For a slightly larger kit, there’s an almost identical The Knight set from another Lego knockoff brand, Mavo Brix. This 370-piece version features all the same elements as the BuildingBoat set, but scaled up a bit, with a 6.3-inch Hollow Knight figure, a 5-inch-wide bench, and a 10.6-inch light-up street lamp. This kit is $18 at Amazon.
Unofficial video game building kits like these are surprisingly common these days. In fact, before Lego launched its first official Legend of Zelda display last year, several other brick building brands launched their own unlicensed Zelda-inspired sets. Like the Hollow Knight sets above, the Zelda kits don’t feature official Zelda branding or trademarked iconography. But they look like the real thing–and they’re also much more affordable than official Lego sets.
Some notable picks include the 1,764-piece Hyrule Horse Station Building Model Kit, which is based on the stables you visit in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. The display measures 12.75 inches tall and 12.28 inches wide, featuring details such as interior rooms with furniture, chests containing food and other items, and even a floating Korok. There’s also the Link & Zonai Device Dispenser play set that lets you build a working version of the Zonai Dispenser shrine from Tears of the Kingdom, and includes a blocky 3-inch Link figure. You can also grab an 800-piece set featuring five buildable Korok figures for $27 (was $30) when you click to redeem the coupon code on Amazon’s listing.
For fans looking for highly posable figures of link, there are multiple kits available, each based on a different version of Nintendo’s iconic hero. There’s a 5.1-inch Breath of the Wild Link, 6.4-inch Link wearing Majora’s Mask, and a 3-in-1 kit that lets you build either Link from Ocarina of Time, Link driving a Zonai contraption, or a robot.
Meanwhile, if you’re looking for sets that capture the classic Zelda vibe, there’s The Adventure of Z Master: 3-in-1 Link Building Kit. The 1,2000-piece set features a buildable figure of Link based on his appearance in The Legend of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, plus a Tektite enemy, and equipment inspired by the Master Sword and Hylian Shield. It’s available at Amazon for $22.79, which is a slight discount from its usual $24 price.
Of course, if you’re looking for the real thing, you can also grab Lego’s official The Legend of Zelda: Great Deku Tree 2-in-1 Set for $300 at Amazon. This 2,500-piece set lets you build either the Breath of the Wild or Ocarina of Time version of the Great Deku Tree. It also includes minifigures for Princess Zelda and three versions of Link.
