Assassins Creed Statue/Figures - Page 192

My issue with the vinyl Connor last breath was that they made his outfit color look too greyish, when it's supposed to be white in the game. The other vinyl Connor figures (Connor the hunter and the Connor rise) both had the right color.

I hadn't noticed that the other two vinyl's were color accurate while this one is off. My rise came with the CE of the game when I bought it and the Hunter I bought soon thereafter. My son bought this last breath statue recently after I sourced the premium Connor statue. I didn't pay too close attention to the colors when he got it and it stays in his room with his collection. First I noticed it when you mentioned. I'll point this out to my son but doubt it will phase him as this Connor pose is son's favorite statue and ACIII is his favorite Creed game as evidenced by exhibit 1 (hidden blade seems to be on loan from grandpa, but you get the point)....

His enthusiasm for the games is what drives mine!

Might be too much detail for here but some might think it's cool to see how Legendary Bayek is packed and what's inside closer look so here's mine as I unboxed it and put it together...

And here's his place amongst the others for now...

I'll try to find time to add more detailed close-ups later if there's interest.

Thank you for images JC. One question, please.

Thank you.

Hi, yes I am in the United States and only have access to buy from the US UBIStore website. On the US Site, the following are advertised for the Legendary Edition of Origins...

These are photo representations of the contents on the US UBI site of what is received with the Legendary Edition and Gold Steelbook Edition. Notice that the Gold Steelbook Edition includes the steelbook with Bayek's Profile on the Front and the Anubis Character on the back. As you see in my photos above, the steelbook I received is the second steelbook in the "Legendary Edition" picture which is exclusive to the Legendary Edition.

These are clippings of the product description on the actual order page. As you can see, Legendary Edition says I will receive everything I already have in July and "everything else" in October when game is released. The "everything else" according to the list includes the Steelbook Gold Edition and I would assume includes that second steelbook since that is what is included in that edition. Other stuff coming in October are the World Map, Artbook, Art Cards and Soundtrack (usually a download link by email if same as in past).

The other "Dawn of the Creed" Edition for 1/5 the price basically gets you everything in the "Legendary Edition" minus the Lithos and with a smaller vinyl bayek/senu figure and a smaller Eagle Amulet (I assume it's smaller since the Legendary says "Premium Eagle Amulet" and the Dawn does not).

Hope this helps clarify

Cheers

The Regular Dawn of the Creed edition in Europe will have the green steelbook. While the NA edition will have the Anubis steelbook. Legendary edition released in both regions will have both steelbooks.

EU Version

NA Version

Odd they make it a different steelbook for various regions, but truth be told, the green steelbook I just received with the legendary edition is super nice and I love the way the hieroglyphs seem to move in the light (oddly kinda reminds me of the streaming code strings from the Matrix movie). If I had to choose between the Green steelbook I already have or the Anubis gold edition steelbook, I'd easily pick the green one. So for me anyway, those buying the EU version of Dawn Edition get the better steelbook.

I am also super interested to get pictures of the Bayek figure from the Dawn edition when it is released. Given the observations in my Connor comparison from a few days ago, I wonder if they will do a more accurate job on the colors and a better job on the face.

I really enjoy having the Legendary Bayek statue out and everyone who cares about Creed in my house (me and my son) are fans of the khopesh. We watch the US TV series Forged in Fire and there was a Khopesh episode that highlighted its history. We really thought it was cool how that weapon evolved from the battle axe and was used strategically to take down an opponent's defenses (either by grabbing the shield edge or hooking a leg to throw them off balance) before dealing the fatal blow. I hope they incorporate some of that into the game!

Wow those comparisons were great! Thanks so much for that!

I am still impressed how well Pure Arts makes the cheaper ones still look "okay"... but their premium ones are up there with the best makers out there.

Not to beat a previously spoken about topic but I'm sick and tired of PROJECT TRIFORCE stringing me along. I'm one of those dumasses (I don't care lol) who ordered the Premium Jacob Frye statue.... Anyone have legitimate updates on it? Can't seem to get any responses from those Fu#%s

That's the reason I didn't order it...I got burned hard on the Darksiders 2 statue. Granted, the publisher went bankrupt causing a licensing delay but I swear it was almost three years from day one preorder till ship date on the Exclusive Death/Dust statue and aside from size it was cheaply made.
