I'm a bit burned out with the Assassin's Creed games, like I am going to do Origins later this year. But my excitement for the series overall has dimmed. I remember Assassin's Creed IV fondly, I think Assassin's Creed 2 is still my favourite, just barely though. As I feel it's the best classic AC style game. But ACIV is definitely second, I've enjoyed most of the games, it's really just the grind for 100% completion that can be a bit of a chore. Like all those animus fragments in AC: Rogue.
@@CrunchyCollectibles My second favorite of the AC games has to be Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Big fan of the whole Ancient Greece mythology and it was a dam good game at that.
Hey, Crunchy, good to see you back in the saddle. If I could start all over again, I would collect only 1/10 scale. But my entire collection ranges from 1/10 up to 1/1 scale. I'm in too deep to start over at this point. Enjoyed the review.
@@dalecomixcollectibles137 yes for sure. The biggest I got is 1/4 but nothing that’s 1/1 scale. I would love to have some bust but I don’t have the space or money for that lol.
Your not sure what those heads are suppose to be on the throne? Haha dude come on! They are Rancor heads, figured that would be obvious if you have seen the og films and know that this was Jaba’s palace and he used a Rancor and Boba gets one too…
This statue is depicted in the early hours of the game when you fight against the first orc. If I remember right you don’t get the shield until after this battle
@@CrunchyCollectibles I think you wanted to reply to me :D naah Kratos put it on right before Fae funeral. Its just Iron studios loves to do statues incorrectly or just lazy sometime and this isnt the first time, they have nice stuff but they are really incompetent sometimes. Especially for their price...
@@alenkikic3531yea my bad I meant to comment on yours. It’s been so long since I’ve played the game that I don’t remember fully but your probably right. It’s an amazing piece but could be better if it was depicted correctly
@@CrunchyCollectibles I mean we cant say its incorrectly either, since this Kratos was on the E3 gameplay and in the artbooks of both games. But they could have done it better by putting Mimir head, blades of chaos and guardian shield on him...
Not a Dragonball fan, but I can still appreciate the beauty of this statue....NICE. I have a bone to pick with you, CT... you pointed out Venom's underbite in one of your videos, and now I can't unsee it. 🫣🫣🫣🫣🫣
Haha I love dragon ball z. I think every statue company makes there own version of venom and that everyone looks a little different. I for sure think this when it comes to the body
@Crunchy Thunder FedEx truck is saying 80lb box. I was like there is no way. I have a few heavy dbz statues, but not 80lbs heavy. Some are 30 to 40 lbs the most so far unless it's very tall 38 inches.
I own this one, but I still enjoyed your review. I like this statue, but I think they could have done a better job on how Carnage' s hand is affixed to the base.
@@DTGV-oq2fz no not really. If your looking for a small figure with some quality, that would be the iron studios figures. They are made out of polystone not PVC
You will love it man. It’s an amazing piece and it’s really not that bad of a price compared to other sideshow statues. I really recommend it and if you love the clone wars especially the last season then you will enjoy this statue. I also recommend the art print too.
Hey, Crunchy, nice review. I like the statue, but don't care for the tongueless portrait with the underbite. Still slowly building my Carnage statue collection. Keep em coming
Thanks man I appreciate the support and I agree with you that the portrait with the tongue is the superior portrait. Also I’ve been watching alot of your videos as well and you are getting a very nice carnage collection built up.
Another great statue....another informative video. I've had that large Ahsoka in my SIdeshow cart for a while...but after seeing this, I like the smaller one....decisions, decisions. Rosario Dawson epitomized Ahsoka in the Mandalorian.
Yes she is an amazing piece and the best part in my opinion is that she is very easy to display, and the boxes with Iron Studios are small compared to sideshows. If you go to Collectorzown.com I believe they still have some available. They don’t charge shipping on anything and depending on your state where you live at they don’t charge tax either.
@@CrunchyCollectibles yeah it dose I think it was way to much money but, the end result is awesome. I can't afford the new premium format and the 1/6th scale figure is a pain in the ass to pose looks great but no fun factor. That's the half the fun of having 1/6th scale figures is poses them. So this guy is the next best thing. Kinda in the middle of the other two Grievous's I mentioned.
@@darthqui-gon5986 I totally agree. In my opinion Hot Toys and Sideshows 1/6 scale figures are to expensive and I don’t like having to pose them. I like the premium feel of polystone statues like IronStudios
@@CrunchyCollectibles I love statues I wish I could afford sideshows new General Grievous premium format but he's way out of my price range. So in a way this is my little premium format LOL but I do love Hot Toys I enjoy posing that's half the fun plus they look incredible sometimes they look better than statues and I like the cloth but I understand that a lot of people don't like posing it is much easier just to take it out of the box and display it. My friend used to buy figures all the time I need simply just take him out of the box put them on the stand and put them in his detolf. Me I'll sit there for a good half hour trying to get the right pose it's a lot of fun if you enjoy doing that
@@darthqui-gon5986 yea I totally understand that. HotToys are pretty cool because you can pose them however you want to or how you remember that character. They virtually make almost every character for every movie or show out there. They have a lot of options to choose from and I’m afraid once I open that can of worms I can’t stop buying them lol.
Hey, Crunchy, appreciate the honest review ...especially with respect to quality compared to the Diamond Select statue. Also thanks for turning me on to Diamond Select....I'm new to so and I checked out their site, and they have some affordable stuff. As a newbie, I'm only buying the less expensive statues until I learn more about the hobby....still trying to figure out which companies make quality stuff and which ones don't. You got a thumbs up and a new subscriber.
Hey Dale Evans, I appreciate the support and don’t get me wrong Kotobukiya is an amazing company and most of their statues are PVC but they are usually on the higher end with PVC. All companies have their ups and downs and you will slowly start noticing them. Once you feel comfortable enough you should check out Iron Studios 1/10 scale statues. They do cost more then Diamond Select statues but they are a more of a premium statue and are made out of polystone. With them being made out of polystone they are more fragile but the details are unreal. After that I ended up moving to Sideshow statues lol. For me it was a ladder and I kind of just moved up the ladder as I got more comfortable. Now I finally have a PrimeOne1 Statue on preorder and they are one of the best statues in the world to buy, but my lord they are expensive. I did the payment plan with it and it won’t come in for a couple more of months.
@@CrunchyCollectibles thanks for all of the good advice. The ladder idea sounds like it's the way to go. I checked the price of those Prime one statues and my head exploded...I won't be ready for that for a long time.
Iron Studios makes some really good 1/10 scale statues, love the size and pricing of them 👍 Also Polystone and Resin are very similar, though Polystone tends to be more fragile...
Love Kotobukiya, they make some real good quality PVC statues but the premium they charge for these statues can be ridiculous... I have the Original Carnage and Venom and well I think they did a good job in making these Renewal Editions different from them, the originals are still way better in my book. Not a fan of these new bases and face sculpts, thanks for sharing 👍
Yup, thanks for the feedback man. I agree that Kotobukiya is a master when it comes to PVC but some of their prices are a little ridiculous but then others i find to be cheap.
Yea the blade itself is a separate part but the sabers handle comes in Kenobi’s hand already just not fully attach. I like the idea that you can have the option with displaying him with the saber out or closed. The only thing is, is that the lightsaber won’t stay in. I had to finally super glue it in. But I think it may just be an error on my statue alone and hopefully the other Kenobi statues aren’t like that. Also General Grievous lightsabers come unattached as well but they fit better into the handle part.
I had the same problem with my Kenobi. So I took small piece of toilet paper one ply wrapped it around end of light saber and pushed it in holds great and you can still remove it if needed.
@@1701peterbrown you are pretty smart, I would’ve never thought of that. I ended up putting the smallest dab of super glue I’ve ever put on anything. So hopefully if I ever need to pack it up again I can just pull it out fairly easy without causing damage.
He looks awesome for a 1/10th scale....u shud have said the sculpt is awesum man...not just good 😑.... ordered mine after watching this video.... waiting eagerly !!!
Yes he is very awesome and I’m very pleased with him. I have General Grievous preordered as well and will do a video with him too. Thanks for watching.
