Damtoys–Assassin's Creed IV:Black Flag –1/6th scale Edward Kenway Collectible Figure

[DioramaMaker]

Seems like he's a lot like Jack Sparrow in that the futzing is key to the figure, but that's super fun always. There was one guy who returned his Sparrow because he had to assemble stuff on it, which is such a silly reason to give up a good figure; here it seems to be the same risks for folks. I hope DAM runs with this license hard beyond the three announced figures because as of now it seems like they're outdoing HT's effort with Ezio. I've lost a lot of love for playing the games post Black Flag, but I love the universe, story, and designs so much that I happily will collect and display these.

Furthermore, I really like the historical aspect of these guys. You can insert them with other figures in your collection of the appropriate era and maintain that mystery of history the games have. It doesn't force you to keep a dedicated AC section.

My main hope is that we get a Mentor Ezio, Arno, and Bayek (haired and shaved sculpts.) I think if the line would go away after that, I would be content. The licensing limitations imposed on the next two figures make me suspect of this though. I'm ridiculously happy we are getting Aguilar though, since movie aside, the designs of those Spanish Assassins were fantastic.

With Jack it was just putting things on the belt, if I remember correctly? It took a while sure, but this guy can take up to three times as long to get to a proper state.

Unboxed mine earlier.

I dig it.

Nice attention to detail. Weathering is nice and subtle.

My nits are that the hood is lined, so it doesn't lay well. I've seen this happen over and over where they'll line the hood, and put a wire in it for poseability, when they could have just left it unlined and let it lay naturally.

Also, the leather belts are the super-fake pleather with the backing ... I hate that backing. It's just too stiff.

Last, the ankle joints are a bit too weak, it's hard to hold all the weight up top.

Other than that, the detail is great, I don't mind the headsculpt.

Also, special mention to the slick box, it's almost like a velvety-feeling box. It's pretty cool.

Yeah they need to weather it. Especially jacket and the leather covering pants. They chose the slick mohawk hair rather than the long hair, I guess because of the poseability and to look good when hooded

 

[DioramaMaker]

Love it. Weathering aside, and certainly moddable, I'm pretty pleased with it. I'm probably in the minority but I really liked AC3 and Connor in general.

Edward came out nicely weathered, at least with some subtle weathering.

I know people weren't excited about the baby blue on the outfit, but it's muted by a layer of dirt.

My only real nit with the figure is that the headsculpt looks more like a video game character than if it were modeled on a real person. It's just that overall, the character design was designed for how videogames work, rather than what is practical for real life, with things like the 'floating' cape/jacket.

Is that a custom or something in the queue to come out? That looks pretty cool and would be easy to dirty up. He's got a bit of a Wes Studi vibe to him. Totally dig it.

Coming soon from DAMToys, not a custom, it's an official licensed figure

Absolutely a winner. If you remotely liked the game and want collectibles, then this is the ticket for you. Everything is so nicely crafted and the hood is remarkably impressive for the scale. If you take the time to futz it and make it lay properly beneath the straps, it's spot on.
Everything is nicely assembled and tightly fit to the figure, just add weapons. Remember that the seam of the hood is slightly asymmetrical in game and it's designed here accordingly. My only costuming gripes are that I feel like the shoulder pads are a hair too small; they're bigger in game to my memory
The tabbards could have been a bit more weathered. But the latter is absolutely not a deal breaker. Additionally as pointed out, the boots are backwards; however they are curved to fit the calf and shin so unfortunately you can't flip them. But if you love the game and franchise, all of that is just a blip on the map. This is well worth your time.

My first fig from damtoys, really dig it but that cape/shoulder coat is a pain. That could of been better engineered to fit. Surprisingly not too much discussion on this guy, awesome toy.

I've got mine, it's pretty sweet. Still disapointed they went with the trailer version of edward instead of the in-game version. Thus the ''weird'' colors and head sculpt.

Anyone interested here is my review:

What happened to this one? Any plans to finish?

Will finish it someday. This got a few interest so I move on to another project. With a few interest, I barely made any profit, can't justify it for my work and time. A video game character always got a few interest, eventhough I know this figure really need an upgrade!
