It's gets you free in-game items every day! And when you're not scanning it with your Nintendo system, it doubles as a great detailed decoration to add some flare to your video game shelf :)

Pretty Good Quality for an Amiibo

This Amiibo is quite detailed and is in a dynamic pose where Link is in the process of shooting an arrow. I like how the stand that holds onto Link to keep him upright blends into the figure as a cloud of dust. This makes the stand feel like a part of the figure rather than just a support beam like the yellow colored stand from the Super Smash Bros. Link Amiibo.
The figure does have some minor flaws. There are some slight paint bleeds in Link's belts and his quiver of arrows are all clumped together as one chunk of plastic rather than have each arrow individually made. The bow he's holding is also not stringed. For a figure that is this small (around 3.5"), minor flaws like these are to be expected.
The Amiibo functionality for Archer Link in the games is quite underwhelming. This Amiibo provides random items like food and possibly bows and arrows in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the Nintendo Switch and Wii U. However, as a collectible, this Amiibo is quite excellent.

For those not in the know, Amiibos are special figures that can grant certain bonuses when scanned into various Nintendo games that support them.
In the case of this particular version of Link (there's a few different versions of him on the market), scanning him into the latest Zelda title, Breath of the Wild, will often give you some of the stronger bows in the game as well as bundles of arrows. These aren't absolutely needed to complete the game, but they are a nice, quick freebie when you're trying to save rupees.
As for the figure itself, it's pretty nice, showing Link in a dynamic pose that's been shown many times in promotional material for this game. I especially like how instead of a somewhat-distracting pole to keep him in a midair pose, the design has a puff of dust acting as support, feeling more in-context with the action being portrayed. The colors are nice, too, and will help it to stand out of a sea of mostly green-clad Links in your collection.
Even if you don't own the game that this currently supports, I'd say pick this figure up if you're a fan of the series in general.

This is one of the better looking amiibos. I feel bad for Zelda's Breath of the Wild amiibo. She doesn't look all that great. And horse back riding link has his face covered so who cares. It's a cool pose and looks nice.

If you are an amiibo collector this amiibo it’s a must have.
But if you are not but you like Nintendo and the Legend Of Zelda games you may want to pick it up.
It looks great overall.

Besides being a really nifty Amiibo on it's own, this Amiibo like other Zelda Amiibo give you special items in the game on a daily basis. You always get some goods and a treasure chest that can have weapons, shields or items. The detail on the figure itself is really nice with very nice, fine lines and no missed paint. My only complaint is the lack of bowstring on his bow but seeing as something that thin is easily breakable it's not a big concern.

This Amiibo does look fantastic. The detail is some of the highest on any of the Link Amiibos released so far. The quality and likeness to the video game character is perfectly done. In my opinion the best part is the wisp of air that’s holding up the character. I’m not a fan of the clear plastic supports on other Amiibos. The integration is perfectly done. The only thing I don’t like is that the functionality of the Amiibo is basically just random free stuff, nothing exclusive. Older Link Amiibis give you exclusive armor, but this one just gives you items that are already obtainable in the game. Sure, some of them are rare, but not exclusive. It’s a small gripe, and if you’re just a collector it won’t matter. What matters is how good it looks!

This is one of the best Link amiibo sculpts to date. He is representing the special time-freeze effect in game when you draw your bow while falling and the dynamic pose captures it perfectly. The details of the tunic and even the arrow are spot on. Outstanding figure with great in-game bonuses. A must buy for any collector.

This amiibo is one of my favorites, not only because BOTW is easily one my favorites in the Zelda franchise but also because this Link looks absolutely stunning next to the Zelda BOTW amiibo. The figure is a lot smaller than I imagined but for its size the details are great!

Great amiibo statuette of Link! When used in the Breath of the Wild game, it gives random fish and meat along with a treasure chest of either a random bow with a perk added to it or a bundle of elemental arrows. Works once a day.
It took me a while to figure out that you use the amiibo to get the freebies while playing in the game rather than on the game's startup screen as you do with Hyrule Warriors.
