A trio of officially licensed metal puzzles themed around The Legend of Zelda are on sale for over 50% off at Amazon for Cyber Monday. You can get brain teasers shaped as the Triforce, Hyrule Crest, and Master Sword for $15 each. This is the best price we've seen for all three models. When we initially wrote about these back in April, each puzzle was selling for close to full price.

The Legend of Zelda: Hanayama Metal Brain Teasers

Triforce -- $15 ($32) | Level 4 - HardHyrule Crest -- $15 ($32) | Level 5 - ExpertMaster Sword-- $15 ($32) | Level 6 - Grand Master

Designed by Japanese manufacturer Hanayama, each Zelda brain teaser has the same objective: take it apart, then put it back together. While that may sound pretty easy, these are dubbed brain teasers for a reason. Hanayama's puzzles have Mensa difficulty ratings ranging from one to six, and all three Zelda puzzles are Level 4 (hard) or higher. For those unfamiliar with Mensa, it's a society for people with high IQs (98th percentile or better).

Even if you can't figure out how to solve the brain teaser, you're at least getting a high-quality metal collectible to display on your desk. Hanayama notes that these puzzles are suitable for ages 12 and up--but many adults will likely run into some trouble trying to deconstruct and rebuild these puzzles.

Zelda: Master Sword Metal Puzzle

$15 (was $32)

The most difficult Zelda brain teaser is the Master Sword--which carries the max rating of 6 and is almost certainly more frustrating than the Water Temple from Ocarina of Time. Your goal with this one is to somehow remove the Master Sword from its resting place, then figure out a way to get it reinstalled.

These could make for great stocking stuffers for Zelda fans, but you may want to order soon. The Amazon estimates the Triforce and Master Sword will arrive in time for Christmas, but at the moment the Hyrule Crest's shipping window starts in January. Amazon is often conservative with these estimates, so the Hyrule Crest could wind up arriving in time to wrap and place under the tree, but it's not guaranteed.

Once you work your way through all these Zelda puzzles, you can check out the rest of the Hanayama catalog, which includes dozens of puzzles of varying difficultly. These puzzles often have gorgeous designs that'll look great on coffee tables or home offices, and since most are quite small, you can bring them with you while traveling to give your brain a workout.

Hanayama's puzzles aren't the only Zelda products available for 50% off at Amazon for Cyber Monday. All of Dark Horse's superb books about the series are also up for grabs for extremely low prices. And if you haven't picked up the official guidebooks for Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, you can save 50% on those, too. The Breath of the Wild Guide is the Expanded Edition, which covers all of the DLC, while the Tears of the Kingdom guide is the gorgeous Collector's Edition.
