I've been trying to figure this one out for over a year now. I own the Brotherhood, Revelations, and AC III statues. Notice one thing though in my photo is the Brotherhood packaging doesn't match the rest with the nameplate missing on the bottom.

Now browsing online I always see the packaging this way, matching my other two:

I know it exists since I've seen hands on videos on youtube. So does anyone know why there is a difference? Since it doesn't match and I know a version with a nameplate is out there, it's driving me mad!

Wait so is there a nameplate on a certain variant of the ACB statue?

I know there's at least 2 different versions of the outer box

By nameplate I mean the name on the bottom of the packaging of the Revelations and the AC III one.

Ah ok I know what you mean then

I assume all the European versions came like that as I know German and Spanish ones did

Did english european copies come with the nameplate on it too?

That's where I wonder. All of mine are US bought North American versions. I did not import any of these.

The Canadian / ?US? Variant is the top pic
The EU variant is the bottom pic
Or the top pic is the Canadian reprint edition
Take your pick
Its one of those 2

My Brotherhood statue has a manufacture date of 09/2010. I've had it for a while and was always concerned it was a knock-off since it didn't match the Revelations packaging, nor the youtube videos/stock images I constantly see.

So in the end I do have three authentic US/NA PVC statues? Why oh why does the Brotherhood packaging have to be different?!
