Caption: Zelda Fan Jailed for Carrying Replica Master Sword in Public. In June, Nuneaton resident Anthony Bray was arrested for carrying, a six-inch replica of the Master Sword from The Legend of Zelda, as reported by Eurogamer. Despite Bray's claim that the item was a fidget toy, police deemed it a sharply pointed object that could be used as a weapon, causing public fear. ”The blade was inside a sheath and could be released from the sheath with the press of a button." Police Press release. Sgt Spellman, a sergeant in the Patrol Investigations Unit, emphasized a zero-tolerance policy for bladed articles in public. Bray was sentenced to four months in prison and must pay a £154 victims' surcharge. Police stressed the importance of choosing non-threatening fidget toys to avoid similar incidents. This event occurred while 'Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom' is set for release on September 26, 2024. THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
