Template:Place The Bomb Shop is a store that eponymously specializes in bombs and their different varieties. These shops cater to customers with bomb bags of all sizes, selling bushels of bombs in different quantities and at reasonable, though sometimes a bit overpriced, rates. These Bomb Shops are commonly located in populated centers such as Hyrule Castle Town and in assorted villages across the overworld of Hyrule. Like all replenishable items, Link can find regular bombs for free, instead of purchasing them at a particular bomb shop, all over Hyrule, but specifically after defeating foes, or slicing short grass bundles - because of this, it is recommended to only patronize the bomb shops during times of desperate need, or whenever a different bomb variety is required.

Appearances

A Link to the Past

The Bomb Shop appears in the Dark World. It is situated exactly where Link's House appears in the Light World. The shop is kept by a strange creature known as the Bomb Shopkeeper. At first he sells only regular bombs, but later in the game he will sell a special Super Bomb that will allow Link to access the Mysterious Pond at the base of the Pyramid of Power, where the Silver Arrows and Golden Sword can be acquired.

The Goron Shop in Ocarina of Time

The Goron Shop in Goron City sells bombs in many different quantities, more so than any other shop in the series. There is also a shop in the back alley of Hyrule Castle Town, but it is only open at night and it sells Bombchu exclusively. Once a particular bundle of Bombchu has been purchased, its spot will be replaced with a "Sold Out" sign. The store's supplies will not be replenished.

The Carpet Merchant also sells Bombchu. However, the supplies there never run out. The catch is the high price: a staggering 200 Rupees.

Majora's Mask

See also: Goron Powder Keg Shop

In Majora's Mask, the Bomb Shop is located in the Western part of Clock Town. The shop sells the usual Bomb as well as the mobile bomb, the Bombchu. After saving the old lady in North Clock Town, the shop will sell an upgrade for Link's bomb-carrying capacity.[1] There is a second bomb shop located in the Goron Village, known as the Goron Powder Keg Shop, that sells the Powder Keg by the Biggoron for 100 Rupees. However, the shop in Clock Town sells these kegs for half the price by another Goron.[2]

The shop is run by the Bomb Shop Owner and his mother, who apparently ran it originally with her late husband.[3] Unique decorations inside the shop include a large model rocket, a giant model bomb, and notes and schematics for a planned trip to the moon using bomb powered flight.[4] The owner often recommends the fireworks show at the Carnival of Time, which may indicate that the Bomb Shop provides them.[5]

The bomb shop in The Wind Waker is located on the southern part of Windfall Island and is owned by Bomb-Master Cannon, the only bomb maker left in the entire sea.[6] At first, Master Cannon's bombs are far too expensive for Link to purchase, so Link can't obtain them yet.[7] However, after Tetra and her crew come in and steal his precious Bombs, he lowers the prices to be quite reasonable.[8]

Twilight Princess

There are multiple places to purchase Bombs in Hyrule in Twilight Princess, but there is only one true bomb shop that is located in Kakariko Village. This shop, known as Barnes Bomb Shop, is owned by the mechanic of the village, Barnes.[9] In the beginning, Barnes cannot sell Link bombs because his suppliers, the Gorons, have broken off relations with the village. Link must earn the Gorons' trust before they will begin supplying Barnes with the materials he needs to make them.

At first, he only sells Link regular old Bombs and informs him that they can be used to create Bomb Arrows. Later on, he will then sell Water Bombs and eventually, Bomblings which are similar to Bombchu. Barnes will also buy back bombs from any of the bomb bags Link has for a deflated price. However, if Link wishes to sell his bombs, he must sell all of the bombs in the selected bomb bag. This is sometimes necessary because Link can only hold one type of bomb at a time in each bomb bag he has.

Around the store are a bunch of warning signs that say not to use any flammable objects in the store, so if Link uses his Lantern, a sprinkler system will turn on and put out the Lantern.[10]
