Archivist Shares 3D Scans of Bandai’s Ocarina of Time Keshi Figures

In celebration of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time‘s 25th anniversary, Mr. Talida’s Keshi Corner has shared 3D scans of some of Bandai’s 1998 keshi gomu rubber figures of characters featured in the game. As we previously reported following the release of a collection of 1986 The Legend of Zelda figure scans, Keshi Corner specializes in preserving video game history by creating 3D scans of game-related merchandise for others to print, all for free. The site focuses particularly on the keshi gomu rubber figures produced during the 1980s and 1990s, and features scans of figures from a handful of Zelda titles, including The Legend of Zelda, The Adventure of Link, and Ocarina of Time, in addition to games like Super Mario Kart, Super Mario RPG, Street Fighter II, and Pokémon.

Keshi Corner’s Ocarina of Time Bandai figure scan collection kicked off with Ganondorf himself, followed by Young Link and Young Zelda, Volvagia, Sheik, Phantom Ganon, and finally Princess Zelda. Mr. Talida has said that as they add more of the figures to their collection, they will update the series with more scans for others to use and enjoy.

With access to a 3D printer, you could hold these figures in your hands as well. I think I may run down to my local maker’s space to try making the Volvagia figure myself — it looks so cool! It really is wonderful to see folks like Mr. Talida making video game history more accessible to fans who would otherwise miss out. If you want to see more video game figure scans, you can check out the full Keshi Corner catalogue here, and follow them for announcements here.

What do you think of Mr. Talida’s Keshi Corner providing these 3D scans of Bandai’s 1998 Ocarina of Time figure series? Do you plan to 3D print any of these yourself? Let us know your thoughts down below!
