plane to make Altair 1/6 and Ezio 1/4 :drool:

[Xmo]

Please keep us posted :)

[Thetof91]

What about the price on them? :)

I mailed them, but have not got any response on it.

[Mathika]

Hmm
I think the Price will be the same as other Figures that made like these
1/6 Scale = max 200 Dollar
1/4 Scale = between 400 and 500 Dollar

[Dr_Jengo]

They just updated their FB page with a sneak pic.. Just when I thought this was never coming out..

Wuhu i think the Same veron

They Write the Preorder will be available in the next days over Facebook and their webpage

[Dr_Jengo]

Cool! I'm 50-50 about this though..

Of course I'm excited about 1/6 scale AC figures, though it remains to be seen how good the quality is. Will be nice to have these though especially since they plan to do the other Assassins.

Why I'm undecided, is because this is a new company.. There has been no official announcement (as far as I know) about this collaboration between Ubisoft and FireFigures. FireFigures, the name itself is a bit suspicious.. Seems like a play on the word, HotToys.

So definitely worried about how steady the license is.. But of course who can resist 1/6 scale AC figures?! :lmao:

[Mathika]

Hm
1/6 is great
The cloth Look Good

The sword :think:

I Need to See the Face sculp and paint

I Hope it dont Look asian like playarts Kai figures

[i and i]

following this one with great interests. Hope for a Desmond also

[Romeo]

They just updated their FB page with a sneak pic.. Just when I thought this was never coming out..


I still don't trust them. It's been about five months since announcement and they still don't have a website. And $200 for a doll from a company that isn't even established yet? I call shenanigans.

[Mathika]

Update: new Pic
http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/906869_514460801944603_1069079193_o.jpg

Price will come soon

Connor Immediately after Ezio!!!

[Dr_Jengo]

I still don't trust them. It's been about five months since announcement and they still don't have a website. And $200 for a doll from a company that isn't even established yet? I call shenanigans.

I wouldn't go that far to call them dishonest at this moment. There's no proof of that at the moment, and we have to give them the benefit of the doubt. However, there hasn't been any official announcement. They just appeared out of nowhere and seem to be doing the AC figures.

I already have 1 very bad experience with supporting a new company's products so will be much more wary this time.

Hope it all comes good though, 1/6 Scale AC figures will be awesome. And if they do become successful, who knows.. they might fulfill my dream of owning 1/6 Scale GTA Character figures!

Edit: On Closer look, they have spelt "Collectibale" figure..

[Dr_Jengo]

https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/484779_514923308565019_1290312588_n.jpg

Another tease.. the wait better be worth it.. After so many teases, if the face sculpt isn't up to par... :banghead:

Yep. And today they misspelled it again. They cannot get 'collectible' right.

Is this figure even licensed?

[Mathika]

Omg i have no good feelings with this figur

what is with the belt?

and the weapons?

and the face ? looks like the mouth from tony stark (HotToys)

Im so excited

Release: 23rd April 2013

[CheapAssassin]

Mathika.. keep me posted pleaaaaase xD well gonna check here regularly neway.. haha

[Mathika]

Update:

Sorry i forgot something

We are pretty close to our 1st Product Launch.. People interested in our products will be able to Order via website and our facebook app on launch... But !!! We have a surprise for our first 100 orders... ! Those who wants to Pre Order, Please email us at "orders@firefigures.com" with your Name and Country and one best thing you like about Assassins Creed to get listed in our top 100 as First Lucky 100 will be gifted with a special surprise to be disclosed upon launch ...

@jonkhor86
no problem ;)

[CheapAssassin]

Thanks for sharing the info! Just sent in mine. Hope I am not too late to make it the top 100 :D

[LowlyAssassin]

Mathoka is a bit slow
They have revealed Altair first glimpse too
So maybe there will be 4 figures available on the 23rd
Damn I hope not
I hope its just Ezio
As I don't think I can afford 4
Especially when the have not decided to tell us the retail price
I may end up skipping all of them

But doesn't Seth McFarlane own this company too?
If so then he has alot invested in assassin's creed now

[Thetof91]

I just hope it will be a price I can afford xD

Don't you mean Todd McFarlane?
As I know Seth McFarlane is the guy behind Family guy, American Dad and so on :p

[v1sav1s]

At the very least I'll get the head if it turns out great. Not sure about the clothing yet...

[Dr_Jengo]

The problem is most of us don't know anything about this company and where it came from.. There are some shady companies based in China and Hong Kong but I'm not sure about this one.

[SwiftDeath]

Has anyone asked ubisoft about firefigures?

[LowlyAssassin]

I just hope it will be a price I can afford xD

Don't you mean Todd McFarlane?
As I know Seth McFarlane is the guy behind Family guy, American Dad and so on :pI probably do
I thought Seth was getting ahead of himself moving from family guy, american dad, Cleveland show
Into concept art and figure manufacturing

At the very least I'll get the head if it turns out great. Not sure about the clothing yet...
Lol how will you get just the head?

The problem is most of us don't know anything about this company and where it came from.. There are some shady companies based in China and Hong Kong but I'm not sure about this one.
True that, they seem to only answer Facebook questions that suit them
But they have had an online presence via face book for a little while now,
But there are no pictures or videos of there studios
Has anyone asked ubisoft about firefigures?

Now you know none of us are that smart to ask UBisoft if they have granted licensing rights to this company, but which branch of UBisoft are we supposed to ask as one country of UBisoft doesn't know what another is doing
So I give the challenge to you swiftness

[CheapAssassin]

Yup.. Swiftness with his swift methods sure work! :D

[vhal_x]

Is nobody picking up on the spelling error?

Altair Ibn-La'Ahed?

It should be Altair Ibn-La'Ahad :facepalm: xx

EDIT: As well as the repeatedly mis-spelled "collectibale" :rotf: xx

Noticed that right in the beginning. Part of the reason I don't trust the company.

Btw I emailed them to be the first 100. Has anyone received a reply?

I have not and I emailed them as well

[LowlyAssassin]

I sent them simple question via Facebook messages
Like how many figures are planned so far and got a zero response
So they must really not have a customer service department yet
Maybe I should apply for the role of PR manager or assistant for there company

[imironmann]

I have not and I emailed them as well

Same here.

[Dr_Jengo]

I have not and I emailed them as well

Add me to that list.

[LowlyAssassin]

Add me to that list.

And me
:(
I even asked if we would get confirmation
But I guess they'll just pick names out of a hat
Which is not fair when they ask for a reason why you like the franchise

Even though I emailed them, I have no idea why they need us to email them. Seems like a company gathering email addresses to sell or building a DB to send us spam, er I mean Newsletters.

I usually don't judge too much and like to see the positive side of things but there seems to be a lot of weird things going on..

I have joined another forum sideshowcollectibls just to see if anyone there has any more information

[Dr_Jengo]

We are not the only ones.. Their latest FB post has received some comments from suspicious fans..

A certain Celine Gardier hit it right on the head with exactly my thoughts. The part about another company especially. That saga is what makes me very wary about this company. I have experienced it first-hand and my biggest fear is that it's gonna happen here as well. For all I know, it's the same person behind it all..

[i and i]

A certain Celine Gardier hit it right on the head with exactly my thoughts.
that would be me :) (Ikaryas)

I also already contacted Ubisoft. I'm really hoping these guys are legit but I'd rather say I'm sorry later then let myself or others walk into a trap much like Syco's one... Luckily, I didn't trusted Syco in the beginning (although that had more to do with delivering quality products then the mess it turned out to be) and I'm not starting with trusting companies blindly like apparently many do now with this Fire Figures company.

Don't get me wrong, I really hope my worries are for naught but I'll rather be cautious then sorry later when we've lost serious cash on them.

Are you guys waiting for the 23rd? We too are excited! Ezio getting ready for being shipped :) Full reveal coming on 22nd!


Hello guys.. Are you ready for the full Reveal and Complete Details?? Just 2 days to go before the big launch... Ordering details, sale regions, and full Figure details will be up! We hope our work will be loved.

[Dr_Jengo]

Really hope they don't disappoint on the 23rd and fix all the concerns that we have raised.

I have been very suspicious about them so far but I will definitely be the first to be happy that I was wrong about them. I love figures and statues and would love nothing better than to have good quality 1/6 scale figures of the Assassins.

What will be the price of our Ezio? A lucky draw will be held for all answering correct and 2 of them will be having a smashing 50% discount!!! Furthermore we will be emailing about the top 100 orders as well who will be receiving Surprise Gift....... Any Idea about the surprise edition??


Mentions top 100 orders so maybe that's the first 100 email thingy we did earlier???

Yep I haven't gotten anything either, granted not sure if I made it into the first 100

We have any word from Ubisoft as to whether this is real or not?

My contact is researching to find out if they're legit. Will post as soon as I know xx

[Mathika]

What will be the price of our Ezio?

:think: Easy now they can see what the most people willing to pay

no
its good for the company but not for the buyers

i think a price of 135 - 175 USD are acceptable

Great

Swift: :D i didnt see you already post it :D

[SwiftDeath]

lol didn't see your edit :rotf:

Glider looks cool but still not convinced this is legit

Any else get the feeling that English isn't their first language but they're trying really hard to make it seem like it is?

Usually with a more polished company they would do a better job of it than that but I guess they're new :shrug:

Yeah but if I'm going to spend that kind of money on it I'd like it to be licensed at the very least

[Mathika]

Yep hats right
but i want 1/6 scale figures Like HT Ezio and
not that little bad painted joint figures like NECA or McFarlane

[LowlyAssassin]

I wrote the price it would be which is a lot higher then I am willing to pay by about 100

[SwiftDeath]

There has been one or two comments in the price section that state that it's unlicensed or that they think it's unlicensed

I don't believe that the one individual who claims to know it's unlicensed actually knows but it seems that way to me

I mean has no one else been puzzled by the complete lack of ubisoft logos anywhere?

[LowlyAssassin]

We are all doubting its authe ticity
So do we avoid it or buy riot?

[LowlyAssassin]

If I get in first 100 well I'd be happy

[SwiftDeath]

I don't know honestly how I feel about it

It's really cool but I don't like buying unlicensed stuff that is portrayed like this

I don't mind fan done stuff where they make it obvious it's not licensed but this seems like someone really intent on cashing in on the AC brand

And I don't like that

Will be interested to see the top 100 stuff though

Yeah it bugs me. Should make it clear from the get go what you're doing

If this is indeed fake, then they're in fact infringing on Ubisoft's copyrights in a big way which is :nono:

Yea well if UBisoft heads of advertising and corporate PR want to ignore my emails then its there own fault
Is how I feel on the matter

I even asked in the general customer service channels, wondering if it would invoke some sort of response and I had nothing
Not even an acknowledgement

[LowlyAssassin]

OK I received an acknowledgement and said it was passed onto the correct team
And should hear a response soon lol

[SwiftDeath]

Good to hear someone is looking at it

Although from the sound of it Ubisoft isn't exactly quick to respond

[LowlyAssassin]

Problem is
Its gone from a customer service enquiry
To join the list of things the licensing and merchandising department has to do(big long list) and I think its either gone to head office or region specific which would involve each UBisoft country /region to respond yay or nay

Sounds like we'll hear a response just about the time these things sell out :rotf:

Also if anyone cares firefigure has mentioned that they will take payment through paypal


For all those who are wondering the payment mode! we will be going with Paypal!


Interesting that they will answer that but not all of the other questions posed.....

[LowlyAssassin]

Where did they say that?

[SwiftDeath]

Now Firefigures is suggesting a price between 160 & 170 USD


How about something between $160 & $170 ! Any final guesses?


Seems somewhat reasonable IF it's licensed

I was hoping for 140 so will probably pass

[SwiftDeath]

I was hoping for 140 so will probably pass

It is an action figure after all but I suppose Hot Toys sells theirs for more than that

Not entirely sure I'll go for it now, really hate the lack of info on it

For one thing this could be an open edition and then I'd much rather buy it down the road as I have other things to buy sigh

[v1sav1s]

I can't remember the Hot Toys Ezio box and stand having any Ubisoft logos either. It did have "property-of-Ubisoft-copyright-reserved-that-thing-does-that" stuff, printed on it. But counterfeits still exist.

edit: The face sculpt looks almost like the Hot Toys sculpt. o.O O.o

New message from FireFigures


Dear all, the delay is due to the listing of First 100 so that as orders are made, we can inline and mail them about the details and being or not being in first 100. Please bear with us for just some moments...


So first 100 is a thing I guess...

I have yet to receive and email but not sure I would be among the first 100

Also supposedly launches in 20 minutes


not more than 20 mins now! Laura, yes you can


Not entirely sure it's worth posting every little comment but more info has been given today then we've received since October


We have a list of people who have mailed us... We have aligned them in the top 100! Now we will match the people ordering us... so doesnt matter if they order us late, if they have mailed us previously and are in the top 100.. they will receive our gift ... Thats the reason for being a little delayed... Lots of requests coming..


I would think their response would clarify things but it just confused me more :scratch:

So they are keeping track of all emails then? Have a list of the first 100 but also ones after that?

[LowlyAssassin]

Damn someone to d me the link to first4 figures crouching Altair to prove this annoying person on Facebook wrong

http://beta.first4figures.com/forum/video-games/please-help-me-communiti-and-f4f-team/

Please shut that guy up, not on FB so it's been bugging me, make sure to quote and then copy in the quote because it doesn't show the full link normally

[LowlyAssassin]

I will copy quote first4figurws now

[nipperkipper]

Alarm bells keep ringing in my head everytime firefigures makes a post on fb, the english, the avoidance of questions, the fact that the site still says coming soon despite an impending launch of products supposedly minutes away

i just dont get it - either its poor business prep or a scam

[nipperkipper]

Lol yeh, perhaps scam is too strong a word but i dont understand why they cant just say if its licensed, limited, what the price is instead of asking people what they would pay:think:

[SwiftDeath]

Yep my complaints as well

If they are legit which I have my doubts, they have the worst communication ever.....well maybe second only to Ubisoft themselves :rotf:

[nipperkipper]

Well at least their website has changed. Looks like something i would have coded

[Dr_Jengo]

The delays keep reminding me of the SycoCollectibles saga. They will claim items will be shipped out at the end of the week. 2 weeks later, they will apologize for delays. 2 months later, they show production photos and it's not even painted yet. Another month and they say they are running more delays..

As for FireFigures, they have not even showed us the details yet and they are pressurizing us to be the top 100/ first 100 whatever to order for a free gift.. In the pressure to order early, I hope everyone doesn't forget to check if they are legit.

Besides I don't see any evidence of a proper payment system. Are we supposed to pay upfront and wait for production? Pay via Paypal? If they keep delaying shipment or worse.. If they are a scam, how are we going to get a refund from PayPal after their allowed period?

I'm actually quite a surprised that a new company can produce 4 high quality figures which are apparently ready for sale even before a single one has sold. I thought usually companies would start slow?

Where's their company info? Still no news about the partnership between the company and Ubisoft? Shouldn't 1/6 collectibles make hot news? Seems like I can set up a Facebook page and a half-ready website and show off some custome collectibles me and my friends made?

Already sent a few mails to the few Ubisoft branches in Asia to see if they have any info.. Hopefully they reply back in time.
Apologies for the long post and any speeding to grammar errors, posting from my iPhone..

[nipperkipper]

Ok the site is up and running now, no longer basic code

[CheapAssassin]

Still looks dodgy to me... They dont even provide a phone contact, or a proper address. Just email?

[SwiftDeath]

Here is the best info I could find on their website. Note it may not be accurate

Seems to be hosted by a server from this Saudi Arabian company http://www.zarief.com/

Might try giving that number a call and see what happens albeit that could just be a local server location or something

[webhead]

It does look very dodgy especially when half the sit doesn't work and is very basically made.

Gonna wait this one out to see what happens

[SwiftDeath]

Just realized what this means


Delivery time will be 30 business days after successful payment receiving.


So that would imply delivery right around 42 days after payment received?

30 business days + 12 weekend days? At the very least

So right on the paypal limit bubble :think:

Also rather strange that it's 30 USD shipping everywhere in the world

Surely these are being shipped from a country right?

I mean shouldn't someone get a cheaper shipping method???

[CheapAssassin]

In the past, if there was any AC figures/statues released, would Ubisoft announce it too?

If i were to order it now, and got into any trouble (touch wood), can I still cancel it with paypal?

[nipperkipper]

Forget this im off to bed, just wasting my time looking for any assurances

[Dr_Jengo]

Shipping is using EMS? If I remember correctly, that's from China and the same one SycoCollectibles were using...

Server hosted in Saudi Arabia? Crap! Syco Collectibles had a very shady associate living there as well? I need to check this out more thoroughly.

Instead of answering my questions with the launch, they have given more questions.

[CheapAssassin]

I am quite sure if they use EMS, it should be from China...

[webhead]

Hmmm their latest post

"Invoices will be mailed to everyone who have ordered within one business day containing each information regarding batch number, shipping dates and other necessary information.... People who are in the top 100 list will be emailed with the invoice! THANKYOU ALL FOR THE GREAT RESPONSE!"

[SwiftDeath]

Tried the phone number and it is just for the server company and not firstfigures themselves

EMS is availalble from most countries it just depends what they call it

Japan has it as well as some Middle Eastern countries

In the US it's referred to as Express but is the same thing

Still don't trust it of course

[SwiftDeath]

In the past, if there was any AC figures/statues released, would Ubisoft announce it too?

If i were to order it now, and got into any trouble (touch wood), can I still cancel it with paypal?

You are protected by paypal for 45 days after you send payment so you would open a case on the 42nd or 43rd day assuming it hadn't arrived yet

[Dr_Jengo]

On a more positive note, the figure looks pretty cool! Plenty of accessories as well but the sword's blade looks cheap :P
Hope they have enough stock for those who are hesitating..

[Dr_Jengo]

Guys... Got a reply from Ubisoft Singapore..

Hi again, thank you very much for alerting us on this FB page. We have checked with HQ and the answer is that these guys are definitely not legit to release AC figures. Facebook has been contacted and they should remove the page. Don't hesitate to tell us if you come across this kind of fakes again Best, Syl.

Aw that's too bad

Figures looked top notch too

But I guess it's as expected

Hopefully this will stop them before they rip too many people off

No worries :)

You should tell people on FB to open paypal disputes before ubisoft takes the page down

[Romeo]

So everyone said these were fake... then the company 'announces' their product... and everyone still says fake.

So... they're fake.

Ubisoft has done strange things in the past where one part of ubi doesn't know what the other is doing so you really have be careful

As far as I know Ubisoft Singapore is a developing studio so how much they are aware of licensing with other companies, I'm not sure. But they mentioned they checked with HQ so should be real info.

I also contacted Ubisoft South East Asia with the same message but didn't receive a reply from them at all..

[Mathika]

THX veron

195 Dollar for a costum figur is to much!

But why did they Not ASK for Money over kickstarter or something similar for the license cost?

[vhal_x]

I am awaiting news from my Ubisoft contacts in regard to it. I contacted them a few days ago, and I was replied to almost instantly saying he'd look into it and get back to me ASAP, but still waiting xx

[nipperkipper]

Thanks for the info Veron, saved me both $195 and time so i dont have bother with firefigures again

[Thetof91]

Now they wrote this

For everyone posting this company as a scam, we would like to clarify that if we wanted a scam, we didnt need to show several of our figures. We have spent days and nights on research and development and bringing out the best in Market. If we wanted a scam, we could have done it long time ago, we didnt need to wait and face critisicm on timings if it all has to be around Scam. No doubt we are a new entrant in the market but that doesnt portray us to be a scam... I hope people will start believing once the orders start dispatching and are being received to them. I hope this clarifies many misunderstandings... For people complaining us not replying, we are receiving hundreds and hundreds of queries on daily basis ... on mails and on facebook due to which it is quite hard for us to reply all. But the workforce has increased now and I hope all of your concerns will be removed...

Thanksyou

Team FireFigures

[webhead]

They still haven't adressed the fact whether they are licensed are not, so watching to see what happens next :P

[Dr_Jengo]

Do post any updates V!

I want to make it clear that I'm not discouraging anyone from buying their figures. That's your call. I just provided info on whether they had a license or not. :)

[SwiftDeath]

In the comments of that section they reply to the countless licensing questions with this comment


We are already in talks with Ubisoft


Wow that really comforts me and makes me feel safe to buy your product

[Dr_Jengo]

Great to hear that! Hoping everything turns out well! I still like their figures and if they do get the license, it would be much much better for everyone

[SwiftDeath]

Tbh I was sarcastic in my post

I mean what reason do we have to believe their word on it?

Albeit I think with Ubisoft's legal department, if they weren't in talks wouldn't they have taken the FB page down by now?

Really would like more info from Ubi on this one

I know you were sarcastic..

I dont think any one would be naive enough of not being in contact with the company prior to release such stuff! So whoever contacting anyone, please let them do their duty I am sure we will make all of our fans, our customers and the company Proud!

They claim they already were in talks but Ubisoft says they aren't legit and are want to remove their FB page.. Something's not right.. We'll wait and see. I'm hoping they came to their senses after Ubisoft contacted them perhaps are trying to work things out now?

Like I said.. hope everything turns out well in the end..

[v1sav1s]

Yeah.... Even if they manage to obtain a license, I won't be getting these unless the sculpt and clothing are significantly improved.

Have they shown photos, like Hot Toys, demonstrating the figure's articulation and accessories?

[Dr_Jengo]

Same here.. Figure looks good but will wait for in-hand pics first and some reviews.

Actual quality of products can't be told by looking at some pics over the internet

[SwiftDeath]

But the pics are artsy and look like they were put through instagram

Surely the product must be amazing quality!!!

lol if things change I may buy this but I still dislike the way this company has handled everything thus far

It is just way to pricy for me.. I think it should be able to buy it with out all those extra stuff to change.. It is not something I would use anyways..
I guess I am just more to statue instead of these kind of expensive action figurine..

I prefer statues as well theto

That being said this action figure wouldn't be so bad if I got it although it is expensive

[Mathika]

yep 30 dollar less and i would buy one or when im in the 100 then im willing to accept the 195

[v1sav1s]

They copied the Hot Toys product description then altered a few words, right? O.o

[LowlyAssassin]

So we all prefer statues to figures and that's why we are bad people for calling out there lack of license


Well fire figures said in one of there hidden Facebook posted half way down in a comment box

They mention they are in talk with UBisoft
"We are already in talks with UBisoft" is what they right

Whether this is about acquiring a license or about the point that they are unlicensed and should shut down, is yet unknown, and also which branch of UBisoft they are in discussion with it also unknown

So they could acquire a license before these are due to ship
But would that mean that they are licensed figures?
As then the figures would have to he submitted for scale and accuracy testing in order to be licensed ? ?surely?

[Dr_Jengo]

It's been very weird.. I thought you are supposed to do your talks, show prototype samples to the company and acquire the license before you can even showing it to the public and start taking pre-orders.

If they had already been in talks, wouldn't they have said it before. The post about "Holding Talks with Ubisoft" only came after I posted my pics on their page.

All seems very shady to me.. :think:

Right but Ubisoft is crazy litigious aren't they?

They must be aware of it now so why haven't they shut it down?

They will certainly have the power to force its close

UBisoft probably sees it as free extra money, charge the company a license fee and a percentage of royalties per sale = free income

Probably what Lowly said. If Ubisoft is going to make money out of this, why not give them the license? How much will the license cost depends on both them.

I wonder what happened to the Hot Toys license, maybe we will understand the situation a little better.

Still waiting for V's contact to update here and whoever else has contacted Ubisoft. They could also be not allowed to say for the time being. Just hoping everything reaches a conclusion soon

[LowlyAssassin]

I contacted five desperate heads of or but doubt I'll get a response
I also put the question through the customer service channels who said I will eventually get a response
I assumed hot toys decided to give up the license but who knows

The problem I could see with this is that Ubisoft would not give them the license because of the product not meeting Ubisoft standards.

If you compare the Hot Toys figure to this one the Hot Toys just looks better all around.

HotToys only had the License for Assassins Creed 2;

HotToys is more like IronToys :D

Not necessarily, they gave the license to McFarlane over NECA for the smaller figures.

Oh well.. Was hoping they could reach an agreement with Ubisoft but I guess not. Wonder what Ubisoft said about the license. Straight out no because of their license with McFarlane? Or couldn't come to terms? Or they didnt even bother and just got Facebook to close down the page?

Update:
Firefigures Facebook:
Unfortunately, our last page was deleted by Facebook might be due to any complaint by any company. We are right here and you all have your orders intact, just the only thing that will change is that we will not use any of the game or company registered name but our figure will be renamed as The Assassin!
I hope our quality will prove us the best. We are custom Figure makers and we are not using name of any of the used characters in the game or somewhere

Rename of the figure
THE ASSASSIN

No AC Logos

Worst engrish ever.

Knew they were a scam from the beginning.

[LowlyAssassin]

If they do good figures in nice shiny boxes for all 4 assassins and nice elaccessories well we'll see where I stand
But glad they finally renamed there product

[SwiftDeath]

Feels less like a scam to me and more like just unlicensed figures tbh

Still I have no interest in them

After all give me a day with a 3d printer and a handful of sweat shop workers and I'll produce something similiar

No brand, no license, no interest :shrug:

[webhead]

Indeed it wasn't you alone I riled up some people as well especially when they didn't answer my questions I asked :P. Although I think you do win with the article you put up, some very interesting responses from people after your posts :clap:

[Dr_Jengo]

Haha yea very interesting and colourful comments on my blog post as well.. :lmao:

[Dr_Jengo]

Dear All, we have received an email from Ubisoft that we need to close down all the production being non licensed. Though we were not using their name but this has came to our knowledge that we need to take our website down and stop production. Our team has flown to talk to Ubisoft team and for its license. Meanwhile we are now starting to refund the amount we have received through our customers. This was the reason we were busy in and not being able to reply. We are really disappointed by the Ubisoft for not being able to allow us to manufacture Custom Figures without their name. Once we have got some licensing news, we will be back.. For everyone else, we are refunding the amount and you will be getting your amounts back in 2 to 3 working days. Whoever is left or not refunded, please write a message here so that the complaint can be catered. We are sorry for disappointing you.

From their FB page.. So much for their post a few weeks back about being already in talks with Ubisoft

[vhal_x]

Tbh though, they deserve it. :shrug:

If you want to be a high end retailer of Collectible figures, then first you acquire the license!

Plus, you learn to spell things prior to advertising them :facepalm: xx

[LowlyAssassin]

Well thanks for the update..that made me giggle

I don't get why they are so disappointed about Ubisoft asking them to close them down. Was kinda expected..

Thanks to you guys for bringing the questions up which made me check with Ubisoft Singapore. Saved me the hassle of POing and then waiting for refunds now..

[LowlyAssassin]

Good team effort :)

No problem man! Glad to help out the community here. However, credit should go to all of us for communicating with each other and working together.

1 man's shout is still a whisper.. A group shouting together makes more noise. I'm not even if that makes any sense but I hope you get what I mean. I think I'm still not fully awake yet even thought it's almost 11am here. :beer:

[Dr_Jengo]

We have started refunding from yesterday. So guys pls be patient all will be refunded with one to two days. We have told that we were not using any of the Ubisoft name nevertheless guys Ubisoft licensing department is in contact with us and they have liked the quality of our product so high hopes of getting license for the complete AC series!

I'll believe when I hear it directly from Ubisoft..
