Not the one on the tree branches, the Connor statue that is the same size and right next to the McFarlane Black Flag statue...he's about to axe a Red Coat. In the pucture it looks like he has a bottle of Crazy Glue sitting in front of it lol.

Also, who made the crouching Altair and what is it formally called so I can research it.

Evidently I am blind That is the beautiful PureArts statue

And the Crouching Altair is always known as exactly that, I believe. It says on the box "Altair Collectible Figure" but it's rather rare, especially with a box xx

Yes the Large Connor is the Pure Arts Connor Premium statue that was insanely difficult to get in the USA just because Purearts isn't allowed by UBI license to sell it directly to people in the USA. I had to have a relative in DE buy it and spin the roulette wheel on import taxes which ended up being OK. If you are outside the USA, you can just contact them directly and ask for it.

As for the crouched Altair, I got that many years ago with standing Altair (bonus was both boxes are signed by Patrice Désilets and Jade Raymond back when the statues were offered to employees after completion of the first game. It's kinda cool Patrice added the mention ''NIT;EIP'', which stands for ''Nothing is True; Everything is Permitted'' (the tagline for the game, but you probably knew that).

The hardest one to get was the Attakus Ezio which took some time and friends in the right places.

Cheers,

JC

Yeah, I really want to get that Coarse Ezio, but can't bring myself to spend $300 USD for a vinyl figure with so little detail on it. I know I'll probably be kicking myself 3 years from now when I need that figure to complete my collection and it's going for $1000 on Ebay lol.

Hey JCage,

So I took a good look at my leap of faith Ezio's feet. Turns out that they do go all the way into the base. Here's a pic if you're interested. Here's the weirdest part though. In your pic, the pins attached to your Ezio appear to be brownish? The pins on my Ezio are metallic. So I'm guessing Pure Arts made different runs of the same statue before having enough supply for release? I picked my statue up from EB Games Canada if that helps.

Yours actually looks shorter than mine too (not that it matters so I hear). Thanks for the pic, mine stick out a bit but they are still in there really tight and don't budge and you can't tell from the viewing angle. Oh well, that's quality control for you.

Right I know and agree, but unfortunately seven 10x13 prints in matted frames take up a lot of room and the down low space is over occupied with all the equipment and collectible cabinets. I don't know what to do other than keep the beautiful prints stowed away in their very nice sleeves where I will rarely look at them

So curious whether anyone else who has these prints is displaying them in a cool or creative way?

Thanks for feedbacks!

JC
