Assassin's Creed minis??
« on: June 08, 2012, 11:46:43 AM »
Hi,
I want to start with an Assassin's Creed miniature collection, but I'd need a suitable mini for an assassin (preferably Ezio or Connor). Now I've found this one: http://www.arcaneminiatures.co.uk/miniatures-detail.asp?ID=36032, but isn't there a mini that hasn't got a mask, or another cool assassin?
Cheers!

He does wear a mask like that in Assassin's Creed 2, doesn't he? In the Carnevale di Venezia bit (my favourite part of my favourite Assassin's Creed game).

My sister-in-law gave me an Ezio figure for Christmas. Unfortunately it is about a foot tall. If only I could shrink it.


Sorry, that isn't very helpful, is it.

Gael Goumon sculpted this one for Magnificent Egos (now Paizo?). Although they ceased you should be able to find it with a bit of searching, probably in clearance.

I know, but if I sculpted it myself, It wouldn't be half as good as minis by professional sculptors...

The one from Guild of Harmony could work, if you want to get the medieval feeling from Assassin's Creed 1

Scroll a little down and you'll find him  ;)

The freebooter range also has some nice miniatures from the Brotherhood which can suit your needs

More 'Altaier' than Ezio but...

What you are looking for are Zenit Miniatures Executioner Brothers
http://shop.zenitminiatures.es/product.php?id_product=74



And/Or the leader
http://shop.zenitminiatures.es/product.php?id_product=78



Those link to the zenit store but there are plenty available from other stores with a quick google search. Took me hours to find them though as I couldn't remember the name or the range they came from :(

Those are good! I especially like the one with the two blades who seems to be running!

Here's a view of him from the front with new weapons. Not my figure.



I don't have a use for him but I keep thinking about it :)

Totally forgot about the Zenith minis.
And that conversion looks pretty nice, I'll guess sooner or later I will get me that pack too

Just be careful with Zenit. I picked up a Shakir Kyrian a while back and he's a write-off. Blatantly shifted in the mould (the halves don't line up well at all) and his face was an indecipherable mound of slag. A real shame.

:/
