Assassins Creed IV Edwards Kenway McFarland Resin Statue

[SwiftDeath]

Hmm I actually much prefer the unpainted artist proof approach to the gold painted approach a lot of other exclusive variants of limited statues have. A lot classier

That being said I still prefer the exclusive version to have a different pose or changeable piece that makes it unique

I'd probably feel less happy about the ACIV artist proof statue if there didn't already exist unpainted artist proofs of the other statues

Those artist proofs are incredibly rare and completely genuine. The ACII statue artist proof that the French AC collector has on here for instance. Somewhat feels like the continuation of that

about the unpainted, I had a second thought, yes it is definitely an incomplete statue, but I said to myself, I will just end up buying it someday, so why not buy it now.
anyway, its everyones decision..

I waited all year to buy this statue but when the 'artist proof' nonsense popped up it left a bad taste in my mouth. Didn't purchase either. Debating if I'm going to at all now.

buy the painted, not the unpainted. I know somehow you wont regret buying the painted. since it looks incredible.

@swift, I remember that unpainted AC 2 statue, and I said to myself, that looks rare and raw and exclusive, I want to have that someday. now these unpainted became for sale and it reveals how limited they are, 50 is very limited, within less than 2 days, sold out already, the first time it was announced I definitely want to get this. and I did, hoping to get lower number too.

so I know I wont regret buying this unpainted. and beside, years from now, we might see some of these up for sale on bay for shocking price, so feel lucky to got one

That's my problem with it though. Any real collector who isn't some scumbag reseller shouldn't care what the 'value' is as they would never sell it.

Also what angered me is I tried to email them and their contact form errors out every time. Then I called them about five times throughout the day, during business hours, and not once did they answer, always a voicemail.

If they did answer and gave me the info I wanted to hear, I would have purchased both. So if they can't answer the phone nor have any way to contact by email to buy something and become a new paying customer, then they won't get my business at all.

you mind if I ask what information you want to hear?

I tried writing them days ago, and calling the morning the statues went live to find out if I could get matching numbers. It would be the only way I'd buy both. Since their email form is broken and they don't answer their phones, I haven't purchased either version from them. Now I'm debating if I will at any point.

Oh I see.
anyway good luck making your decision mate. hopeFully sooner someone post a pictures and review of the statue to help you decided, and hope they dont sold out quick too.

The day this was announced this summer I knew I had to have it. It would go along with my Attakus Ezio and Syco Brotherhood statue.

With what I stated above though, and that the Brotherhood statue is still common today makes me wait. Now if there is a discount or Spawn offers me something off for their incompetence, then I may bite.

Statue fully available once again. Must be canceled orders from scumbags/resellers.

I believe most of us feel the same way... it's a stupid idea, and only selling because there are 'only 50 made'. All they did was take 50 off of the production line and are selling incomplete statues with a different plaque.

Ahh i thought it was sold out..

Either way skipping this, if the Artist Proof or Exclusive was a Unhooded version or a different outfit version, I would grab it. Unpainted just doesn't interest me.
