Hot Toys Assassin's Creed II - **Updated with Official Specs and Pics**

[robbiethepainter]

Ive taken it all apart. Its really not a big deal. I would say leave the second knot that holds his cape on. It doesn't need to be removed and may screw up how the cape sits on the shoulder. You can untie the left side and then slip the other over his head.

EKT I borrowed your picture.

Im talking about the black cord that holds the cape on.

Finally received mine!
I wanna take his outfit completely off, so I can futz him properly, but it looks like it might be very complex to put together again. Any thoughts?

I did it 4 times. to my figure and to 3 of my friends.



Nothing very hard and it's good idea to redress him. You can take off or burn down all the redundant threads and dress him more tight. But be VERY carefully when unlocking his elastic fasteners on the chest!!! They are very easy to take off from teir places. And before dressing figure put the little drops of super glue on them all in the place where they are attached to the cloths. This way you will fix them well and there would be no problems even when you posing figure hard. Good luck!

Thanks for all the pointers. Finally did it and gave him a regular TT. He benefits from the broader shoulder and overall weightier look. Only problem... Regular TT forearms are too damn big!

Quick question, does anyone know who the features of the older Ezio were based on. I know the younger version was Devon Bostick but I can't find any info on the older version.

Actually wookster I'd be more inclined to say that Desmond, Altair and even Ezio are all based primarily on Francisco Randez.

 

[EKT]

Actually, i think i saw it in some behind the scenes featurette, where one of the guys interviewed said that, Desmond/Altair was based on the Randez dude, while Ezio was actually based on both Randez and Bostick (The kid that plays young Ezio from AC Lineage).

Cheers, I had heard that Altair was based on him and I can see that. But Ezio looks quite different. I actually see a bit of a young (and thinner) Alfred Molina.

Maybe, but I never heard that the in-game look of Ezio was based on Bostick, there's no facial resemblance.
I would put money on Ezio being based on both Desmond and Altair but with a little artistic licence taken to turn him into an Italian noble.

What the hell? now that you mention it he does look like Alfred Molina. Damn, can't unsee.

Also, about Ezio being based on both the model dude and Bostick, I think it was on the Behind the scenes interview of Assassin's Creed: Lineage. They have it on the PS3 ver' (not sure about the other versions).

I got mine at Viking Playground for about $144 with shipping. Then they partially refunded me on shipping and it came out to about $141 shipped.

Well, now that you mention it (and on another note), what I can tell you (and anyone else looking to purchase this), is to avoid Sideshow at all costs. They shipped the figure to me in a super thin Hot Toys packing box. The figure box itself was pretty banged up, and the beautiful artwork was scraped off in some areas .

 

[dominishin]

Alter Ego double boxes. $135 + shipping.

 

[Morinth]

I got two of these from Alter Ego, both shipped professionally and quickly. And I haven't seen better pricing anywhere.
