This heavily armed fan will save us all from Ganon with handmade Breath of the Wild weapons

Netherlands-based cosplayer and prop maker Tom van de Crommert of Non Stop Props has spent the past two years crafting a veritable arsenal of weapons from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

van de Crommert recently shared a picture on Reddit’s r/zelda of his impressive collection, which features several swords, shields, Champions’ weapons, and the trusty Sheikah slate.

The majority of these props are made from EVA foam, some with added PVC pipe for support. EVA foam is a popular choice of material among cosplayers for its affordability and flexibility with the many ways it can be used to make props and armor. The light-up effects are achieved using LED strips and hidden battery packs.

van de Crommert shares plenty of progress pictures of his props on his Facebook and Instagram pages, and he’s also a talented cosplayer well worthy of a follow.
