I actually really like the Brotherhood pieces, but Revelations is so boring... At least the Revelations Ezio feels more like Ezio. I'll have to get both and swap sculpts.

No Leonardo da Vinci, Rodrigo Borgia, or Lucrezia Borgia. No generic thieves, courtesans, doctors, Borgia guards, or ASSASSINS.

Who the hell picked the characters for this set? It's like Wizkids is trying to make this set fail.

I agree. I'm a huge AC fan, and was so excited for these. Terrible job. The first thing I dislike is the character selection. So many great characters who could have been made. I mean where the f*ck is Altair?! But also Da Vinci, Machiavelli, Claudia, Rodrigio Borgia, etc, etc. You can say it was only for the last 2 games, but then Mario shouldn't be in it because he dies in the very beginning of Brotherhood!

Plus the other characters from all over the series, like Robert de Sable, Desmond, Al Mualim, #16, and most important, where is Altair! The list goes on.

Instead we get 3 generics that are NOT Assassins and Octavian? I barely remember him from the game. Major fail on roster selection.

The dials aren't all horrible and I want to play several of them. However, most feel overcosted, especially La Volpe, lack damage potential, and aren't really that accurate. Ezio should be much deadlier and with all the grenades he has access to in Revelations, you give him the weakest, most boring one? C'mon! No representation of the Apple of Eden? It should either be a special power on the back end of various character dials, or a special object.

The sculpts also seem boring as hell.

That said, a couple dials look really fun and useful, Prince Ahmet for one. And the TA's are pretty cool (and copyable, yay!).

However, I was expect much, MUCH better and am very disappointed. Yet I'm still going to fork my money over like a good fanboy, so what's it matter sigh.

CombatNinja, ninja'd me, go figure.

And you named a bunch of figures that should have made that I didn't eve mention. The character selection was horrible, and the generics could have been much better. This should have been a minimum 20 character set(s). Maybe they shouldn't have broken it up into games either and just made it a general AC set. That way it would have made more sense to get Desmond, Lucy, etc. as well.

Looks like the Mace Slam power might need clarification. As it states right now, "After a move action resolves," he gets to swing on someone he knocked back the previous turn. As worded, this would be ANY move action, anywhere on the map, any character on the map, right?

So he's standing next to a victim, whom he knocks back against a wall. The turn passes to the victim's controller. The controller in question moves someone else other than the victim. Free attack? Someone else moves. Free attack again? Does the limit on not repeating a free action to do the same thing apply here?

Something tells me that's NOT what was intended, here, but the way it's written, that could theoretically happen.

I don't complain often or ever really. but i feel that this wasn't properly funded or focused on. I very much enjoy the video games, but i'm having a hard time wanting this set. I feel those are the worst sculpts and final production paint jobs we've seen since possibly avengers. I certainly hope bioshock doesn't get the same treatment.

Poor character choices, poor paint production, and especially poor sculpt production.

With the production quality or sculptors from streetfighter or even haloclix this could have been a decent set. i really hope someone else handles bioshock.
spaceships.

Good call. That will need an errata, though I hope he doesn't get it. I like having another character who can attack on the opponents turn.

If Bioshock gets the same treatment I AM going to throw something heavy. I can imagine the set now. No Jack, though probably a Subject Delta. One type of generic Big Daddy. Tenenbaum will have to be in it as a pure combat character. Let's see... Atlas, but no Fontaine. Ryan with a special power: "Golf Club". And 4 little sister generics. All with horrible sculpts and paint jobs.

The Lack of an Altair or a Leonardo da Vinci makes me sad.

And If anyone is wondering, these are slated to hit stores October 3rd. According to my distribution website.
