Invariably, every LINK wears a green tunic and a long, floppy green cap, at least for part of each adventure, although the shades of green vary in different games. He also wears different clothes during parts of some games, used to match the environment. Unless you pre-order your LINK with a special request, your LINK will arrive wearing his green outfit.
As for hair color, Editions I-IV will have brown hair. Any later Editions will have blonde.
AccessoriesYour LINK should arrive equipped with a sword of some kind, a shield, a hookshot, boom-e-rang, bow and arrows, and bombs. If he is missing any of these items, call your distributor and they shall send you the required itmes immediately.
If you wish to purchase more items for your LINK, you can buy them through your distributor or another store.
Operating Procedure
Your LINK unit is designed to be user-friendly and efficient. He is controlled by voice commands. Please state your instructions to him clearly in English.
UsesYour LINK is a being with many talents that can help you around the house:
Bodyguard:
LINK is a very skilled warrior who will protect you to the death. He is very strong and very quick and will do anything to protect you, as he is honorable.
Stable Hand:
LINK is especially fond
of horses. He knows exactly how to treat them so they will be happy.
Note: This does not
apply to the DARK LINK Edition.
You can set LINK to EMOTIONAL SENTIMENTAL MODE, and he will instantly become quiet, as he will be remembering things from the past. This is best recommended if you want to take a nap and not be bothered. Otherwise, you can keep him on HONORABLE MODE.
Compatibility With Other ModelsYour LINK's compatibility with other models may vary depending on the mode you set him to.
Note: DARK LINK will not get along with anyone but you. Use at your own risk.
LINK gets along well with any model except for the following:
GANONDORF
MIDO
DARK LINK
Precautions
Do not expose your LINK to strong magnetic fields, electricity or excessive humidity, or multiple Cuccos.
It is best to buy a LINK if you live in a suburban/rural area. In the big city, your LINK may become confused and have the urge to run for it. If you order him and live in a major city, it is at your own risk.
Please keep milk away from your Young Version of LINK. Units are not supposed to eat, and the milk will corrupt his system.
Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: Many times my LINK will resquest we go to the nearby forest. Why?
A: Obviously, Link grew up in a forest. He probably thinks he will find the Kokiri there. The best thing to do is reset your LINK by pressed the RESET button. He will instantly forget about it. You may have to do it everytime you pass a forest, though.
Q: LINK won't talk to me. He keeps gazing out the window staring at nothing in particular.
A: Your LINK is probably on EMOTIONAL SENTIMENTAL MODE, remembering the past. You can set him back to HONORABLE MODE and he will be happy to talk to you right away.
Q: LINK is always drawn to any instrument I have in the house. Why?
A: The best thing to do is to buy the Ocarina from your distributor. Once he gets it, he'll play it and be content.
Q: LINK is paranoid about going into the garden. Any reason why?
A: Yes. LINK is probably worried about the Poes, as they would hop out of the ground frequently. This has come up many times, so the item necessary for this situation would be to get POE KILLER from your distributor. They come free; you just have to order it, and though it isn't real, it will guarantee LINK that there is nothing outside and he will happily garden with you.
Q: My LINK saw the GANONDORF unit across the street and ran up to him, and started hacking at him with his sword. What should I do?
A: LINK is programmed to remember GANONDORF as the bad guy, and will relentlessy attack him. If you have any luck, LINK will listen to you and come back to you. But that will not guarantee if GANONDORF will come and attack him. It is best that your LINK stay inside your home/backyard and never let him out the door alone.
Any consumers with other questions may contact your distributor or call 1-800-THE-HERO.
