Link584's Zelda Collection!
Last Updated 03/23/2015 - Estimated Rounded Worth is $20,000+ usd
A lot of items are in bags and bubble wrap, as I cannot display them very well in my home at this time. Until I get a collection room, they will stay in boxes and bubble wrap. Some pictures are also generic for newer items taken from websites such as NSCX. Also, my favorite part is also at the very bottom of this page.

My favorite part of the collection and always growing...
Fun fact #1 - I own 340 Cels as of early 2015
Fun fact #2 - I own at least 1 piece from every group of 1,000. Example, I own 1 from 0 - 1000, 1001 to 2000, 2001, to 3000, etc. I also did not go out of my way to accomplish that either. It happened naturally.
Fun fact #3 - I plan to own at least 1 out of every 250. (requires 200 cels)
Fun fact #4 - I didn't write down what numbers I actually owned until I had 160 of them. It was a long night.
Fun fact #5 - I don't own two numbers side by side. The closest is 17027 and 17034 by 7 spaces.
Fun fact #6 - About 3 - 5 of them are damaged. Ranging from a torn off sticker, to a corner being ripped. 2 Are a little sticky.
Fun fact #7 - I have one that is opened that is framed. For those who wish to know, it does not have a number (No COA).
Fun fact #8 - I have never seen any from the last 100 (49,900 or higher).
Fun fact #9 - I did buy each one of these. I never got a free one when they originally came out.
Fun fact #10 - Why so many? I didn't have much money when I started collecting Zelda items when I was 18. I paid for college with cash so in order to stay debt free I couldn't buy expensive things past a few dollars. I wanted to start collecting and for fun I found a Cel art and bought one. One turned into 2, then 3, then after 6 I realized I should keep going and have the largest Cel collection in the world. Something about the limited quantities available, having a COA, and finding out what number you were gonna receive just really called to me. COAs and limited numbers are a weak spot of mine.
