Assassin's Creed Syndicate Cane Sword Prop Replica

I highly recommend this product!!!! Pros: Great build, sturdy, holds weight like cane (not full body weight), easy to use, nice design Cons: The bird blade is kinda wobbly (add some glue to the open side of blade to decrease wobble), when it arrived the cane had a hard time assembling, the cane wouldn't attach fully until I accidentally dropped it hard on the bottom part allowing me properly lock it in place, the cane it self seemed like it was in storage for a while it had this white dust on it (I wiped it and good as new) , the paint on the bird head seemed alittle darker than the box looking like a goldish bronze but I like worn look and it kinda looks better in my opinion... So if your interested in the product I recommend buying it as a prop and not as a "Play" toy due to it being kinda fragile in some areas like the plastic bird and cane blade,

The other reviews are correct with their claims regarding paint details not matching the photos in the product description. The product photos shown here display a sword blade with beautiful paint details. Instead you get a piece that's pretty flat and poorly executed. It's not TERRIBLE and it can be fixed if you know what you're doing. That being said, if you paid $60 to $70 you shouldn't need to add paint details to get the product to match or even be remotely close to what you see in the product description. This was a gift for my son and one of the first things he mentioned was how odd the paint work looks on the sword blade itself. It's flat and dull with no real detailed paint work. It looks like a cheap plastic toy sword you'd buy at a dollar store. Definitely NOT something that you'd expect to see on something that's supposed to be a detailed weapon replica. The detail work on the sword handle is a bit better, but still doesn't look as good as the photos on the box or in the product listing. It looks like gold spray paint with a haphazard attempt at some detail work. The woodgrain on the cane body itself is flat and plastic like. The entire cane body is hollow plastic with a noticeable seam and the whole thing feels like it could be brittle and break easily if handled roughly or dropped. I managed to snag this at the reduced price of $29.99 with free Prime shipping. That was too good of a deal to pass up and I'm glad that's all I paid. To me that's about all it is worth. I don't like to make price a big factor in my reviews but I feel it's necessary in this case. If I paid the normal price tag of $60 or more I'd be a bit upset. Based on the price I paid this is a 3.5 to 4 star out of 5 star product. If I paid the normal retail price and received this piece I would probably rate this a 2 to 3 star product at most. Overall my son likes it and that's all I care. We can definitely improve the paint details on our own without too much trouble. If you're buying this for cosplay or for a highly detailed prop replica I'd be prepared to do a little work to get it to the level shown on the box or in any stock manufacturer's product photos shown here.

After reading other reviews I was convinced I was going to get a cheap piece of plastic. Maybe I am just lucky but this is actually pretty nice. It feels somewhat heavy though not enough to actually lean on like a real cane. Yes it feels like a prop, which is what it is, but it's not as bad as I expected. The paint doesn't look as cheap as I thought it would either. I haven't taken it out for a spin yet, but it doesn't seem like the bottom blade will just pop out unexpectedly, as I had to tap it pretty hard to get it to work. Yes, the other items in the line of Assassin's Creed weapons are better (the gauntlet blade and crossbow) but this is not as terrible as I thought. Glad I took the chance and ordered it. Can't wait for Halloween!

The details are sketchy at best, pictures show it looking metallic and intricate but you get a cane of mustard and grey, not gold and silver. The scythe is really sensitive and will randomly unlatch and fling out. It says that the sword pops out with the press of a button but the button is sunken too far in that you can't press it. The plastic of the sword/handle is slightly turned so it doesn't click in so the sword slides up and down in the can if you grab it just by the crow, not pressing anything, the cane falls off and the sword pulls out, so it's like they're not connected at all. the rating is 17+ but what was delivered looks like a kids toy that you'd buy for a 7 or 8 year old for a cheap Halloween costume that costs at most $30 (INCLUDING outfit, so cane should be priced at like $10-14 including taxes, maybe $3 shipping) Made of extremely cheap plastic, won't be surprised if it breaks soon. I definitely would NOT pay $30+ for this. Sword requires extreme force to fit into the cane, to the point where it feels like you'll break the plastic, sword overall doesn't fit in the cane and the blade on the sword isn't secured so while it's cheap, hard plastic, not flimsy rubber, it wiggles side to side and forward and backward in it's "slot". Extremely poorly made and made me really disappointed.

Great toy for kids. My little brother loves it even though he broke it already. This toy is great for something made of only plastic. This toy can survive hours of play. Just don't hit things too hard with it! sidenote: The cane broke the bottom blade while kicking it open.

I love the AC franchise, and Syndicate especially, so I thought I'd buy this as a little memento and a possible prop for future costumes. Alas, what arrived looked decent, but is obviously painted plastic, isn't an actual weight bearing, functional cane (so don't buy if your looking for an actual came or a clandestine weapon). I will hang this up with my collection of video game memorabilia, but feel This is quite pricey for what is (ostensibly) a toy. Should have been more like $10. But, eh, it's a decent AC Prop, fine for collectors and can help a cosplayer look like a Frye. If this was wood or metal, I'd def give it 5 stars; but it's a Halloween quality plastic reproduction. Don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed, also I've heard the gauntlet is much better....food for thought. I wouldn't skip out on a game in favor of this toy cane! Even if it is a decent plastic facsimile of a mid-level in-game unlockable.

So I would have given it 5 stars (after my repaint) if the blade hadn't arrived broken from the bird head... yeah broken as in snapped off. *sigh* yeah that was fun. Buying something that says "used with box damage issues" doesn't mean 'hey it's actually broken" Instead of returning it (lest some poor soul gets it for a present and is disappointed) I kept it, epoxied the thing back together (twice I snapped it once in weathering) and continued on my merry way. The original color was pretty meh, flat, silver is grey, brass (or is it gold) is flat. I was going to repaint it anyway. So let's chat about that shall we? Started with a base coat of rub n buff (it's amazing and I love it) in antique gold just as a base coat (not required just my preference) then I did another goat of the gold leaf color all over it. I then sealed it (clear coat), and then weathered it with slightly thinned out acrylic paint, brushed it on, rubbed it off, so on and so on until I got the look I wanted. Did another sealer coat for due diligence. Some silver leaf rub n buff on the blades and a little weathing completed the repaint. For a little added flare I added in a black plastic gemstone thing into the eye holes.
