Yeah, that one is fine. Something I’d not likely use though. So, I’m probably not going to update the headsculpt at all. The whopping $74 I just ate for Legolas and the $30 something I’m going to eat for the Super Duck Tifa 2.0 is more than enough upgrading for the year.

I don’t order from Asmus anymore. I grabbed a few things from them, before they did that site update some years back. However, once my Crown Gandalf order mysteriously vanished and they made me keep sending email after email to get Galadriel cancelled, I was done with that mess. I just order from distributors now. Ironically, Gandalf was cheaper when buying from other merchants.

To be honest, I think the honeymoon phase, with them, is over. They won’t sell separate headsculpts anymore for their Tolkien figures, when it’s clearly an upgrade to the original figure(s). The are doing it for the reissue of DMC3 Dante, but I don’t see that being a thing for very much longer. I’m lucky that BlackOpsToys had the most recent Legolas headsculpt. Even though it cost a pretty penny.

Asmus is already starting to get incompetent, complacent and lazy. They still have their heart in it, but the wheels are turning. They’re becoming the next Hot Toys/Sideshow.

They're jacking prices and blaming Covid. I don't plan on ordering anything ever again ATM. I want my Dante accessories and I'm done.

Well, everything is going up after covid. That’s by design. An economic collapse is inevitable. Affordable housing is about to have a crisis.

It was actually two weeks they didn't ship. It was supposed to be here Monday but I just got a text it's ready for pickup at Fedex.

Vergil is nice I guess. I don't like the face on it whatsoever. He's got a caveman brow. He also comes off as shorter than Dante. His accessories are really nice at least. The handguard on Yamato isn't really lined up, but whatever.

That's pretty much it for DMC with me until the Dante accessory pack comes out. I wish they'd do the same for DMC3 Vergil, which is a possibility. They fucked everyone who got the first release that didn't have Beowulf.

@Ish_hernandez95 do you like your Vergil?
I’m a fan to be honest but I think his Headsculpt looking the way it does is a consequence of the realistic style 5 went with. Unless the make Nelo Angelo or the Devil Trigger forms that’s it for me.

I will say though I wish and hope they do make a hair down Vergil sculpt on account I’d just like the option to use it. And while it’s pretty much how he looks in DMC3, I wouldn’t mind if a Vergil upgrade pack consisted of a Headsculpt from DMC4 and a coat based off of it (really they just added like 3 straps)

I'm hoping they give the first runners of Vergil an accessory pack with a new head and Beowulf. Fucking hate they didn't include that.

Yeah I went the way of the heathen and bought the Luxury edition JUST for Beowulf -_-
They were teasing like they were going to offer it alone, and I think they even said that in a IG comment and it never happened. Now, I kinda think they will since they're doing Dante and giving him a brand new better head. Vergil's head could use improving. I never liked his textured hair. They could give us the summoned swords too to fill it out.

Whenever that Dante set comes in, he's getting Agni and Rudra immediately.

I really regret not scooping the Luxury DMC5 Dante, the Davies Sword Sparda is nuts

My coat on that has a gouge in the right lapel. I contacted them and they wanted me to send it back to get repaired... in the middle of fucking covid. I found a loose one the other day and hopefully it's good enough for a replacement.

The Sparda sword is stupid heavy and I eventually stopped displaying him with it. I have the Dante sword on him but I think I'm going to just put the Rebellion on his back and give him Ebony and Ivory like DMC3 Dante.

It sort of shakes? But it’s the slightest thing it’s really not the biggest deal for me. I’m sure the smallest dab of super glue and it’s be solid for me
The tang of the blade looks like on mine it wasn't fully inserted into the handle. Is yours like that? The guard is solid in place.

Anyone else interested in Asmus making Gilver? I’d be down, especially if the Headsculpt looked similar to the last artwork
