The Xtralifes.es Altair was Real

Good to know the definitive on this - they were gifts for Ubi as I had heard but... I still don't believe the xtralife.es is real - best marketing ploy ever for a site that sellls Assassins creed collectibles... load up a product that is highly sought after by avid collectors, give it a real low cost, mark it out of stock (like they ever sold any in the first place at that price!!) and lo and behold every time a collector google searches for Crouching Assassin they hit xtralife.... nice bit of site marketing, increases their traffic to raise their google rankings and puts them on the radar for purchases of other associated Asssassins lines....

Nice one!

I never found Xtralifes.es in the web for searching Crouching Altair

I found it in a post of Lowly a year ago

Quote:
Nobody confirmed or denied lover in that thread you linked
Nobody confirmed or denied that they where for sale at extralife.es or that they where pre order bonuses on extralife.es

First4Figure answer and Confirmed

You missunderstand it with Xtralifes (but i write it a little bit false)
i had write to some seller @ ebay that this figur cost 35 Euro and they where saying to me it is another Figur made out of PVC

We only gave the statues direct to Ubisoft. I dont know what they did with them afterwards.
I think they were real why not?

Is it really that rare nowadays? I bought mine like 4-5 months ago, for less than a 100. and the same box as that.

Language barriers between me and mathika are causing an issue
As English isn't your first language it seems (no offence intended)
So I'm not coninuing this crouching Altair debate anymore ever
Although I will as extra life.es
And my guys at UBisoft to see what they know

My final words before though
Yes the extra life.es figure is real it is pictures of the real coaching Altair
This does not mean they ever sold the figure, nor does it tell us how many they ever had min stock maybe 0 maybe 1 maybe 500 nobody has asked extralife and I do not speak Spanish so its best if a Spanish speaker asks
Did you ever sell these
When did you start selling them
How many did you have in stock (either exact numbers or roughly)
When did you sell out

I understand you , i write that i think it is sell by them

why not?

What will Ubisoft do with 1000 of these ?

And what for sense is it when Xtralifes.es dont sell them ?

But ok lets stop it now befor it will end in WAR

I have read this thread a few times & have been thinking about everything thats been said or what has been thought. Lets step back & think about this logically for a minute. If,thats if around 1000 of these crouching altair figures were ever made then only ever sent to Ubisoft employees,wouldnt you think between when they were made & now there would surely have been more appeared for sale than there has been?? Regardless wether they were supposed to only have been given to employees of Ubisoft or not then surely over the years more would have appeared for sale than there has been. Yes,well done for getting answer of sorts so far but,the next step would surely be to get an answer of sorts from Ubisoft as to what was done with them,what they were for,were any given away to anyone via competition of sorts etc. So far the only grain of reality i can possibly see is that first4figures no longer have the licence for Assassins Creed,which was one of the consistant rumours circling around as to why nothing else was made after Altair.
Now,in regards to the one that "sold" for $5000,it never did as far as i am aware. The seller has relisted it a few times,each time the end sale price has gotten lower but still goes over $1000. Now,either the seller has more than one of these & never leaves or gives feedback,the potetial buyers are just dreamers that hike the price or more likely theres a bit of shill bidding going on somewhere. You decide.
