    I hadn’t seen one of these in years, then my wife and I played BotW.

    My first thought was that whoever named this thing an ‘octorock’ missed a golden opportunity by not calling it… a rocktopus.

      That name goes back to original LoZ, can’t change it now. Lots of Zelda creatures were introduced then, it had impressive diversity for a NES game. Molblin, Zoras, Darknuts, Lynels, Like-Likes, Wizzrobes, Peahats, WallMasters, Gohma, Dodongo…

      Some had weird names directly taken from Japanese, and some had weird names from localization (…Manhandla?)

    I can’t see myself paying that much for a simple plush toy, but it is pretty cute though. eBay has it 10 bucks cheaper if you don’t want to go back.
