Thanks for sharing. Too steep for what it is and that's too bad cause the presentation is actually pretty cool and would look really awesome as a backdrop to legendary Bayek. I think they price it high as it's real brass accents and hand painted and very limited. Also you'd have to love the game and value the depiction of the god trials. I've got a big discount I'm considering using on this but would still be a big pill to swallow.

Here's a YouTube on it...

Uhhm, as long as the solid gold figurine weighs in at more than 12gram then I would actually switch my perspective from collectible to investment. That said, not being made of solid gold... Of course its too expensive at $500 but having an expiring credit of a couple hundred which I might lose before new game announced, that is what I am debating.

Nonetheless, this will always be an individual assessment for everyone and I totally get that many wouldn't even consider it at half that price. But some (like me) have already spent what many (my own wife included) would consider insane amounts on collecting most of the premium and rare Assassins Creed collectibles over the years and that is OK too. Not many would have spent $800 on the legendary Bayek, but much like my premium Connor or Attakus Ezio or crouched Altair or so on and so forth, these things bring me a bit of joy each day as I relate them to my years playing the game and more recently enjoying it with my kids. So there's more to the "value" than just the hunk of resin and brass for me. But I totally respect any who see it different and to each their own.

Cheers - JC

Just a way to say it, solid gold would be an amazing investment

I agree. The value of collectables is very subjective and personal.

I do love Assassins Creed and is the bulk of my collection when it comes to statues/figures, but for example, i wont pay the 400€ that the Evie statue is going for these days even knowing is the only of the "normal edition" statues im missing.
On other hand i dont think the legendary Bayek statue for $800 is expensive.
