Ugh! Part of me wants these to be cheaper so I can just buy obscene amounts of fodder but $10 for this much fodder and articulation is nothing to scoff at these days.

I know what you mean. I'll probably do the same thing I did with Prince of Persia and the Hobbit figures. Buy at least a couple at full price. Buy more at first discount. Buy all at clearance.

And Yes I did need 20 Legolas and Bilbo figures when they are $2 each

I got Ezio and Jacob yesterday. Much the same as Evie. The face paint is horrible, but everything else is pretty solid. I had no loose or stuck joints and nothing feels as though it will break. Really hoping for more information soon. I want the Origins figures and the two packs.

Sorry for the double post, but here’s a reply Jazwares sent me on Twitter:

“Sorry for the delay, but we have answers! Amazon is currently the only place you can purchase any items from the new Assassin's Creed line. Right now, only four single core packs are available. Likely, in late May, two new single core packs will be out as will two new 2-packs.”

I asked if those will only be on Amazon as well and they said “for now, but other retailers might pick them up in the near future”.

Edit: I asked if there were more figures planned:
“There is certainly more planned, but that's all we have at this point. We're super excited as well for what we hope will be a huge line for us [emoji16]”

Got Jacob today - Altair and Evie(s) are in the mail.

As mentioned, besides the head, the fig is overall really good - sculpt, articulation, design. Far superior to the Gamestars figs we got a few years back (seem to have misplaced my Ezio)

And a quick headswap makes him a near-perfect figure.

Much more confident in the remaining offerings and will snatch up what I can - headswaps for everyone!

Yeah, that's a nice swap. They're very much nicer figures than the UniMax ones, imho; which I was still very supportive of. I hope this Jazwares line thrives and they expand to more game licenses. I'd kill to get a Soul Reaver Raziel like this.

For those that haven't tried yet, HACKS hands will fit in place of the hands on Jacob. They won't necessarily swap back and forth great, because the HACKS peg is a touch bigger, but I have no problem disposing of the AC ones.

Similarly, HACKS heads can fit in the neck. A touch loose, but works without mod.

The shoulders pop on out on Jacob, HACKS style also, though the peg is smaller, and they won't swap well without mods. Elbows also pop out easily on AC fig, and that joint is a near perfect fit with HACKS elbow

Surprised I didn't notice that earlier - I just popped them out and they went so easily, I'm shocked they stayed put this long. More great customizing news. Will have to snag a couple more when they're back in stock.

Got my Altair and Evies last night -- they really are great besides the heads. Actually, the heads aren't terrible sculpts, just terrible paintjobs.

Slap a 25A Pilot Scarlett head on Evie & paint the hair - done. Hoodie fits perfectly. For Altair, I'm going to use one of the tan Marauder heads - just gotta find where I put it. Hopefully the cowl fits on it.

Now we just need the Kenway boys along with the Bayek/Aya pack. Also, they need to get the damned things in stock.

hey Chief - do the parts pop out on the other figs too? And if so, how do the Altair arms look on Jacob without his coat? I got two Jacobs with an eye towards making one coat-less. Did not get any Altairs. But if those swap in effectively, I could have one ultimate figure, and it would give me incentive to keep watching for a new Altair to hit the shelves.

Well, poop. Guess I need another Altair along with another Jacob when they're back in stock...

It's the Poe Dameron 5 PoA fig. Really a great sculpt and paintjob - has a young Bruce Campbell vibe (needs more chin, though) thinking of modding one for an Ash Williams or Brisco County Jr.
