AC Unity Phantom Blade Pics

Here's some pics of my Assassin's Creed Unity Phantom Blade from McFarlane Toys.

Hopefully the 'French Calvary Pistol' can be redeemed without any problems. I'm still having problems redeeming the codes from the Series 2 figures 

All nicely packed..

Time to take it out..

Great detail on the Phantom Blade replica. Texture and the details make it look a lot more expensive that it actually is.

Turn on Assassin Mode!

Looks and feels awesome. It's comfortable to wear but I still don't get how Assassins have these equipped on their hands and yet do all those stunts that they do.. What's that I hear? Video Games? Ahh.. yes.. Video Games aren't real.

There are 2 buttons at the bottom.. 1's for the Hidden Blade to spring out and the other's to shoot out the arrow. The blade and arrow are real easy to push back and they lock into place until you are ready to spring them into action. (If you can figure out which way the arrow goes in.. that is. Took me a while to realise I had my arrow upside down so was having some trouble making it lock at first.. Glad I don't do Youtube videos.. that would have been embarrassing to watch..)

Warning here.. The blade and arrow are made of latex but that's not to say they aren't dangerous. Don't fool around with the spring blade trying to jab it into someone's neck, it does hurt. I tried it on my hand. 

Looks great as a cosplay piece but I'm not into that.. so for me, it makes a nice display piece..

The most complicated  Hidden Blade since the start of the series. Dual-purpose with the hidden blade and the mini-crossbow. McFarlane Toys has done well to replicate it.

Will look great beside last year's AC IV Hidden Blade!
