Thank you everyone for the warm welcome.! Here is an update of my collection. I have purchased a new bookshelf to be ready for what is to come! Hehe

Gorgeous update! Also, is that the model Jackdaw (paper/puzzle-like material) on the left in the middle? I missed it when it was dirt cheap on Amazon.fr and have been wanting one ever since. If so, that thing is MUCH bigger than I imagined!

[MPDEW]

Yeah, it is that cheap thing that takes too much place... Heheh

Still, looks pretty sweet and I like how you put it with the other AC4 stuff! I'm a huge nautical fan, so the AC4 merch really got me!

Hehe, thanks, it took me like 2 days to rearrange everything. Needed to think ahead for when all the ACS stuff start to come out... and where will I be putting that Ezio bust from Ubicollectibles... and Apple of Eden and Nikolai Orelov Statue from Ubiworkshop... I still got to buy 7 frames to put on the wall all of the 7 Red Lineage Ubiworkshop prints... I'm only missing Altair so far. Should be able to get it next month.

Wow, sounds like you'll need every bit of room there! Did the Apple of Eden ever get released?!? I thought I remember some mentions of it possibly being announced, but I never saw pre-orders or anything for it?

[MPDEW]

It is not yet for pre-order. All I can remember is a newsletter from them last year about the progression of their next big project and the Apple was in it. Also a Q&A session happened on their forum not too long ago. I'm trying to find these information back and I'll come back to you. You can also add me on FB if that can facilitate some discussion

Could not find the Newsletter that I thought I still had in my email Ubiworkshop folder but I was able to find the Q&A session from the Ubiworkshop Forum

"My name is Matthieu and I’m in charge of the Apple of Eden product’s development. Before being product manager at Ubi Workshop, I worked in Europe on the UbiCollectibles range of figurines and statues (Connor the Hunter, Ezio’s Fury, Edward and Black Beard Diorama, etc…). Inside the workshop, I helped develop the Coarse figurine and finally brought to life the Vial replica from Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag.
As a fan of Assassin’s Creed and a specialist in collectibles, be assured that I’m fully dedicated to the development of the most iconic item of the saga.

Here are my answers to (almost) all of your questions. Some points should be kept secrets

What is the scale of the product (Size and weight)?
1:1. As the vial replica, It’s important to me that you can feel and touch the Apple of Eden as it would be the real one.

What is this replica made of?
We’re currently working on several materials and one of them in the polystone resin. We need to find the perfect balance between render, weight, fragility and shipping costs.

Will it glow?
I know that it’s one of most important aspect of the object and that’s the point I’m primarily focusing on. There is still some details I need to work on but yes, it should be glowing.

Does it come with a special stand or box to display it?
We are always very careful regarding our products so yes, it will have a special packaging conceived to protect the Apple and display it the best way possible. Remember the Vial: the cube can’t be appreciated properly without its Abstergo black box.

Is this going to be a limited item?
We know that most of the Assassin’s fans would “die” to get the Apple of Eden so we think that it wouldn’t be fair to make it limited.

How much is this going to cost?
It’s truly difficult to say so far because we still have a lot of technical aspects to set but our ambition is to propose an affordable price. So, in terms of pricing it should be more like the Vial than the Aiden Pearce leather jacket.

When will this be available? When can we pre-order it?
We working hard to offer the Apple by beginning of 2015. I would love to tell you more or deliver it sooner but my main focus is quality and we won't make any compromise about it.
This product has to be the pinnacle of every Assassin’s Creed fan’s collection.
It will be available in pre-order as soon as we have a final prototype in hand.

Will it ship to all countries and territories like most of your items?
Yes it will be available in all the countries we serve today.

Will I be able to control people's minds with it?
No, but I’m sure that it will leave some people jealous.

Will all the locations be in the Assassin's creed series?
I’m quite certain that you’d rather not be spoiled J

Thank you guys for all your questions. Be sure that your commitment and your passion are our main motivations."

And of course prototype pictures :
