Action Figure Asmus Toys: Devil May Cry 3: Vergil 1:6 Scale Collectible figure (2018)

[Biojex]

I'm getting this regardless because I can't pass on Vergil in any shape or form...but I hope they nail the sculpt.

It actually is. I read that they have been using real leather in their DMC line. They did with DMC4 Dante. Or at least that's what I have heard/read. Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong though.

It's not 100% real leather. It IS synthetic but leather is part of the composition. It's much better than the pleather most companies like HT use/used and supposedly won't flake. Asmus did a cut and tear test a while back and it seems pretty durable. I myself did the finger nail test on a part of the coat and it didn't tear or start flaking. It's a pretty damn good material

Here's the info Asmus has on their website about their "premium leather"

Leather is a frequently used material in designs for movie and video game characters, however, long has it existed a problem of short life spam. It is an inevitable fact that most of the synthetic leather will break and fall apart in 2~3 years due to the production necessity. And it has been a deal breaker for all 1/6th scaled action figures that are dressed in leather.

Asmus Toys has been aware of this problem, and in order to manufacture a long lasting collectible, we have decided to take action of costume making our own synthetic leather.

9 years ago, when we made Dante from Devil May Cry 4, we found a factory that was specialize in making synthetic leather, and it was then we had started working with the factory to develop a new type of synthetic leather that may sustain with intense playing and dressing, and will not fall apart. Till today, our 1/6th scaled Dante stands tall with its red leather coat in one piece.

At the production of 1/6th Aragorn figure in 2015, we took the experiment even further, went for a type of super thin synthetic leather with the same sustainability. This super thin leather helped to achieve the realism by scaled down a leather coat’s thickness into 1/6th scale. And so far, the coat is still in a very good shape.
Today, we are very proud to present you the Premium Leather of Asmus. It is thin as a paper but touches like a real leather, it is made in our 1/6th collectible figure clothing and promise will not fall apart in nature condition for at least 10 years.

This is Asmus Toys’ sincere dedication of pursuing best quality to the collectors, because you and our products both deserve it.

I've had their original DMC4 Dante for years now and there's no flaking on he coat. Asmus did good there. I wouldn't worry.

Ah ok so yeah its a good durable leather material. Glad to know they are putting a lot of effort into this line. Definitely can't wait for vergil, I was playing DMC4SE and man he is amazing to play with. I hope to see news about a DMC5 in a few weeks as I'm going with some friends to E3. Fingers crossed it happens.

There's a supposed leak of E3 stuff and DMC5 is on there for the Sony conference....but I'm not getting my hopes up. No sir!

that's a cool looking sculpt! do you think he needs some kind of quiff? On the game and rendering, he has a smaller head kinda like a characters on a superhero comics, but I guess not many people would like that so they made it looked like a normal human. And do you think Asmus will use this head for Dante too? (except the hair of course) Or maybe a bit change of expression, like a smirk?

 

[Snake Plissken]

That's slick as hell. I tend to like the DMC4SE look more.

Sorry, quiff is his hair model, I meant a piece of a dangling hair, not like bangs, like this

Finger nail test?

 

[chaosMonkeyPoo]

Thats pretty good looking. I think I'm probably more forgiving of the head sculpts not being 100% accurate to the game models than a lot of the guys around here but the look they are going for works pretty well for me. The extra dangly bits of hair that hang down over his forehead would have been nice but also those don't always look very good on sculpts at this scale, so it's probably for the best they just didn't do those.

 

[Snake Plissken]

From what I recall of DMC4SE, he doesn't have bangs. Only renders for the game are they present.

EDIT: Looking it up, it looks like he's got one that hangs down on his forehead. But IDC, it looks good regardless.

 

[Biojex]

It looks like they were working off this maybe?

The lack of bangs was probably a production decision. It’s one more mold to make. One more expense. One more QC thing etc etc

Damn if he doesn’t look great. Definitely ordering off the website as soon as I get home.

 

[Biojex]

The face is really good. If they wanted to, they could just alter the hair and apply the rest of the sculpt to DMC3 Dante and I’d be okay with that.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I was thinking of that old render, too.

I wish they gave him a left hand with the thumb out so he could look like he just popped it out to unsheathe it.

 

[Scentless Apprentice]

Guess I'm the only one who doesn't like the sculpt. Dante and Vergil are identical twins. I just don't see Dante's face in there.
