Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Assassin's Gauntlet with Hidden Blade

My son loves this , the box it came in was nice and packaging was great . They finally got this in stock after being out for 2 weeks . Some stores are selling this for 50-80$ but I waited when it came back in stock and paid 25$. I got it in two days and it was a lot bigger than expected which I don't mind . The blade is not real of course but just be careful bcz it has a sharp point and could hurt someone, just make sure your child is old enough to understand not to release the blade in someone's face. The material is very well made and I feel this will last a while considering how hard on stuff my kid is with toys. Great buy, the only thing that stinks is you can't find this thing in stores, research prices before buying, don't pay more than it's worth retail.

Got this for my cosplay outfit and it is AMAZING! The detail is unique and the arrival of my package was faster than anticipated! The two pieces fit like a sleeve together, and there's velcro straps to keep it in place (a little long, but adjustments are great if something were to happen).UDPATE: (10/11/16)Originally 5 stars. However, I recently took a trip to see my cousin for his birthday, and since he's a fan of Assassin's Creed, I decided to dress up in my cosplay outfit. I had all of my pieces inside of a bag, and as I grabbed out my gauntlet, the hidden blade piece was completely expanded outward (after I turned the knob to keep it from extracting before placing it in the bag) and was bent 90 DEGREES. I tried to bend it back in the opposite direction, and although I gently did so, I noticed the really BIG problem. The spring underneath was wound together and since the area is WAY too small to fit my fingers in, there's NO FIXING IT. I will be contacting the seller after this update to see if I could only buy the retractable blade, but if not, I may have to find one on Etsy that is made of metal besides the flimsy plastic blade. I understand that placing it in a bag was my fault, but I expected it to not extract since I turned the knob. It's my fault that this happened, but I really wish Ubisoft would have used a more durable material for the blade so it didn't bend. I guess we all learn from our mistakes.**FINAL UPDATE!I was shipped a new blade FREE OF CHARGE! The one that was sent came without the pop-on arrow piece, but I managed to just pop the one off of my old one and transfer it onto the new one!! I'll definitely be careful with this one!! Thank you guys for saving my costume!! :)

My son loved to show off this blade. It looks very authentic and detailed. Unfortunately, the fun only lasted 6 weeks. The pop out, plastic blade is activated by a VERY cheap and loud spring. The spring broke, despite my son using sparingly and treating this $30 toy more like a collector's item. I've yet to receive any email or response from the seller on replacing the item for me and we've now had it since Christmas of 2016. so disappointing.

I bought this for my 13 year old for his Halloween costume. We always make our costumes, but he really gauntlet to finish it off it. It was perfeCT accessory for his assasin's costume and I had one happy guy. It was well made and held up well to a 13 year old playing with his friends all evening at a Halloween campout. He was the envy of his friends and I am a cool mom (for the time being!) I highly recommend this gauntlet.

Decent enough product for the price. I was surprised at how hard the plastic is, not flexible at all and was bent a bit from the packaging, I had to work with it to remold it to fit my arm. I have thin arms and this is very big on me. If I removed the hidden blade part, I can tighten it a bit to look better but then the blade doesn't fit. I think I'll add Velcro so I can attach the blade part back on after I adjust it. Blade works just fine but I have been careful not to overuse it because I'm worried it will break, tge mechanism seems fragile.Over all, a good costume prop but I wouldn't recommend as a toy for a kid to play with. Would be too big for most kids arms, difficult to adjust and the blade mechanism actually comes out with some force plus the flimsy mechanism issue I mentioned, I'd worry it would break pretty early in. The blade is of course plastic but I could see someone getting hurt if they weren't carful.Using it as a costume piece to wear to Ren faire

If you are getting this for a kid or getting for any kind of play I would recommend the movie blade. It is great looking but parts will come off and the blade only lasts a couple days before the spring busts. The mechanism is cheep but the gauntlet is beautiful. I took if all of the access pieces and i got rid of the blade because it broke the first day i got it. I just use the gauntlet now and i put a different blade on it. The brass knuckles are awesome and they will never break on you. This gauntlet is also a bit uncomfortable. But other than all the flaws it is a really cool accessory.

I really like this its a bit like the AC4 gauntlet but not as ridged and the tip of the hidden blade is a little sharp to deal with it I put scotch tape over the tip and that made it better its very cool and a must have for assassin's creed fans the brass knuckles are very hard and could brake glass if you it hard enough but other than that its not very dangerous

OMG, I only paid 16 dollars shipped.Same product that was over $60 earlier. Like noted from other reviews, and on the box, NOT a kid toy.It is made of thick rubber like plastic, fits well over a jacket or coat as you would for a costume. And unless your looking at it up close, it gives a nice look of leather and metal and has alot of detail. A steal for under $20 even if you keep it has a shelf queen and a must for a fan.
