Figurine Gallery

Template:Place The Figurine Shop appears in The Minish Cap and is run by Carlov the sculptor. Its entrance is a clump of bushes found in the south-west corner of Hyrule Town.

The Figurine Shop actually functions as a drawing, where Link trades Mysterious Shells for a chance to win a figurine. Figurines are of the various people, creatures, and enemies Link meets throughout the game. The starting price for a drawing is 1 shell. As more figurines are won, the chance of winning a new figurine for his collection decreases. The probability can be raised by betting additional shells, and by exploring new areas. Carlov will make newer figurines as Link meets newer friends and enemies.

The figurines won are kept by Carlov in a display case in the Figurine Shop for Link to view. Carlov will buy back figurines drawn that are already in Link's collection for 5 Rupees.

There are a total of 130 figurines to be won, with six more added to collect upon completing the game, making the total 136.

The reward for collecting all of the figurines is given by Baris, the man sitting outside Mama's Cafe. He will let Link inside his house, which contains a Piece of Heart, three chests with 200 Rupees each, and a phonograph accessing the Sound Test.

After collecting all 136 figurines, the spot on the pause menu where the shells used to go is replaced with a golden medal of Carlov's face.

Figurines come out of colored eggs. Each color corresponds to a different type of figurine. They are as follows:

• Blue - Characters
• Red - Sets of characters or scenes
• Green - Common enemies
• Golden - Bosses and mini-bosses

Figurine Probability

The probability of getting a new figurine follows a specific formula. It is as follows:

Where:

• P = the probability that Link will obtain a new figurine.
• S = the number of Mysterious Shells that Link bets.
• C = the current number of figurines that Link has collected.
• U = the current number of unlocked figurines available for collecting.

Note: the resulting value is always rounded down to the nearest whole percent.

For every extra shell Link bets, the probability of getting goes up. It can be seen from the formula that the probability of getting a new figurine increases when there are more figurines to collect. It also shows that it is much cheaper to collect all the figurines at the end when they are all available, than to try to obtain a group as soon as it is available.

The table below shows the values of U as well as the figurines that can be collected after specific events.
