I bought this because my boyfriend and I are avid Assassin's Creed players and he hinted that he wanted it for his birthday. Now that his birthday has come and gone, he really enjoys having this. The packaging was good, presentable if you too want to give it as a gift, and easy enough to open. The figure itself is highly detailed, down to the embroidery of his cloak that was painted. The movement of his limbs are a bit tough; his arms and wrists stick or lock up sometimes so just be gentle when you change his poses. The clothing is as accurate as possible from what I could tell. Overall, its a great "toy" to put on a display case or to have guarding over your computer.Ah Assassin's Creed! Well I'm an all around nerd. Collect action figures, comics, statues, video games Etc.. And I love my Ezio Action Figure. I played the first Assasin's Creed and I really wasn't impressed. Then Assasin's Creed 2 came out and it blew me AWAY. What an amazing game. That's what inspired me to get this figure in the first place. As far as looks go it doesn't get much better. Durability? I don't really know. I don't play with my toys :) He just sits up on my shelf with Kratos and Akuma! I couldn't be happier with this figure, Truly a great buy in my opinion.Also Whether Azio is wearing the Black or the White, The Figure still looks awesome.This is an older figure, no doubt. However it is one that stands the test of time. Figure feels good and sturdy, and though you cannot get as many poses as you can with the later AC figures, it still looks good next to them.I just want to say my son was very happy and excited with this toy.Assassin's Credd "Ezio Auditore" is one of his heroes.I know this is not a educational toy, but is durable (the knifes in the toys' hands are fragile, don't force them of will broken)The toy arrived perfectly closed and without damages.Shipping fast and perfectly handed.this figure looks very real and is very easy touse. his arms move very well and his legs move decenty. it is worth buyingpros:- very detailed- moves wellcons:- no weapons other than hidden blades- legs only move side to side- face looks different than the real ezioThis toy was horrible. Within 12 hours of getting it out, my son had lightly handled it 3 times, and already one of the knives fell off and the shoulder pad fell of just from picking it up. I had bought a second one for another child from a dept. store, and when he picked it up the blade just fell out of the sleeve--he didn't even touch it. This is the worst toy purchase I have ever made online. I would give it negative stars if I could.Oh, and the "24 points of articulation"? The thing is about as flexible and pose-friendly as a brick.this figure is pretty cool. A bit hard to get him into a good pose but looks good on the shelf.The pro:looks niceThe cons:no other weapons apart from the double hidden bladesvery stiff (stiffer than the player select Altair from AC1)I am a big Assassin's Creed fan, and this has amazing detail, he's the only one I have so far because I had limited budget and my favourite game so far has been AC2 and I've played the recent ones which have come after AC2 and Ezio still is best in my books. One little thing is that he takes a while to stand up on his own, if something happens and he falls off his perch then it can take a while to get him to balance standing on his own again. So a sturdy platform for him away from any risk near windows when a strong wind could topple him off. But if he does fall off he's strong and well put together so there's never any damageThis was purchased for an adult and he loves it as part of his Assassins Creed collection.It would be educational for a child, but they would need to be careful of small parts and intricate design.Arrived with usual Amazon efficiency and good price - very pleased with it.I purchased this to go with a birthday present and it went down great, good item, great gift idea, would highly recommend.Good details on this figurethankyou
