Thank you so much for the kind sentiment!! They are extra special from an established figure reviewer such as yourself 😊 You've really made my day~ So thank you again, from the bottom of my heart!
This is the best review of this figure on youtube! The quality is amazing. You covered every detail! Your review actually convinced me to get this figure. (He comes in August my first 6th scale ever so excited!) Thank you for these quality reviews Elbear! :)
rubber and leather.. the bane of collectors in tropical countries. that's a lot of nice things he's included with. that Cerberus nunchuck looks really cute. Dante may not look like 100 percent from the game, but he does look like a very pretty man. in fact from some angle he looks like a masculine Milla Jovovich lol.
Great review! I love your voice and how you explain every detail. I have the 1.0 Dmc3 Dante. I wasn't a fan of the hair sculpt or color of it. Even the 2.0 still doesn't have his white hair. For mine I decided to make a polyester wig for him. I also kept the original hair sculpt I repainted white too so you can switch. I still hope we get a proper DMC 4 Nero and Dante at some point, but we'll see.
I wish the upgraded only version included the new jacket. Good review as always. I do miss randomly putting in VTS Cloud as an ongoing joke for size comparisons haha
It looks like they used a new body for the 2.0 thus the difference in height. It's just odd to me though because he looks significantly shorter than the 1.0 and against the DMC3 Asmus Vergil (which uses the same body as the 1.0 to my knowledge) would look out of scale. Debating whether I should still pick this guy up.
It has come to my attention that Asmus Toys released an upgrade pack containing the 2.0 head sculpts and new Devil Arms exclusively for the 1.0. Sometimes I wish UA-cam would let me edit the videos because now I'm really not giving Asmus enough credit. Either ways, if you have the 1.0, the upgrade pack is probably a better option, which can still be the case if you've never owned a Dante before but want to make sure he stands at the same height as Vergil. Though if I had any skills, I'd go for a 2.0 and just increase the length of the ankle joints to match Vergil. But I suck at modding so I'll probably mix and match by putting the 2.0 head sculpt and costume on the 1.0 body 😅
I dont know if you still reply to comments of such old vid but I was wondering if you could make a video on how to remove body parts and add others. My dante dmc 3 just came and im scared as hell to remove his hands/head, im so worried i might break him or something, do you have any tips?
hey bro awesome review! btw my dante just arrived and it turned out, the box doesnt have a tape seal and im just wondering are yours also like that? i never buy asmus stuff before and im just afraid that im getting duped(i buy new but got send a secondhand one instead) but if yours are also not sealed then i guess its just the way it is from the factory, again thanks in advance!
Mine did not come with a sticker or tape seal, and that's for both the red figure box and the weapons upgrade pack. They were neatly wrapped in a clear bag when I took them out of the brown shipper box. So I'm guessing Asmus Toys didn't seal this release. But that's a totally legit concern. If you got this directly from Asmus Toys or a retailer that you dealt with before (and fully trust), then you're likely OK. The bait and switch scams you're thinking of tend to be more common in private sales for figures that are long sold out. Still though. Can't be too careful 😉 Hope that helps, and thanks for watching~
@@ElbearToys ah i see, thank you for the reply! i guess the box just came with no seal from the factory, sort of like kaiyodo stuff i guess, haha but finally felt relief that atleast its confirmed mine are not secondhand! thanks again, cheers!
Thank you so much for the kind sentiment~ Though I'm afraid I've long missed the boat for these DMC5 figure reviews. I'll be sure to cover them in the future if Asmus ever releases a 2.0 for these characters (not that they really need it). That said, doing retro reviews was certainly a reason this channel was founded, but I'm so swamped these days that I can barely keep up with new releases 😔
Groovy action figure, Ash Williams (Army of darkness) or Josh Mcgrath (Max Steel) or Action Man (1993) be like Dante, devil may cry theory is the sequel / far away future of resident evil
🤔🤔🤔 I haven't gotten my invoice for Mai yet, but pretty excited if her release is imminent. I ordered with OneSixthKit so hopefully the invoice isn't too far behind.
Someone at IG messaged me that Asmus offered the upgrade package, which I had no idea about 😔 I guess that makes the upgraded costume and decreased figure height on the 2.0 all the more perplexing. But yeah, I'm very glad the upgrade package exists...might actually pick one up for myself.
Hello there! Yes, the clothes are removable but it's not really intended to be since they're very meticulously put together. You'll have to start by undoing the harness, which is a lot of work so I wouldn't recommend. Sorry for the late replay 😔
Have this one before but sold em . Sadly the leather cracked . Still the dmc5 dante still the best. Anyway nice review. Now. What am i gonna do to the add ons i bought without the body hahaha
If the leather is already breaking down, then selling the 1.0 might be a blessing in disguise. And hang onto your add-on's because who knows...these will eventually sell out so maybe they'll fetch for a pretty penny down the road 😉 I actually just found out about the upgrade pack. Might pick one up myself and add some life to the 1.0.
Ok, so version 1 was released around 2020 (no longer in production, do not buy if someone tells you version 1 is still on pre-order), and version 2 was released in 2022 (should be fully released by now, so I'm not sure how you are still seeing this item as pre-order). The most obvious difference between the two versions is the head sculpts. Note that version 2 is the only one that comes with the screaming portrait as seen on 0:44 The Luxury Edition is also exclusive for version 2, which can be identified by the black package as seen on 0:23 that contains additional weapons and rack. Hope that helps~
@@ElbearToys Thank you, now I understand everything. I see available version 2 basic and version 2 luxury, but more expensive. I think the 2022 version looks more like Dante from DMC3? This will be my first DMC figure.
@@GundamGunpla Glad to be of help 🙂 As stated in the video, the likeness is a tricky one. I like like the version 2 a lot, but some people swear by the version 1. Either ways, the version 2 is definitely not a bad place to start your DMC journey. Happy collecting~
@@GundamGunpla Going by strictly from a matter of my personal opinion, I'd say the DMC3 version 2.0 is the "best", but only because DMC3 is my favorite title in the franchise. In terms of best likeness by Asmus, I'd say that honor goes to the DMC5 Dante. The DMC4 is dead last for me. But that's excusable as it was Asmus' earlier works. Bottom line, though, is that I think Dante could look a lot better if he's done by another maker like Limtoys or GameToys. But for a franchise that's waning in popularity, it's difficult to tell if anyone else will pick up the license. Hope that helps~
Hello friend! Yeah, Asmus Toys isn't my favorite brand in this hobby either. They have more misses than homeruns. This one and the Crown Series Gandalf the Grey are the only figures I'd recommend.

Can I just say this channel deserves more subscribers then I ever had, this content is some of the best I have seen.
Thank you so much for the kind sentiment!! They are extra special from an established figure reviewer such as yourself 😊 You've really made my day~ So thank you again, from the bottom of my heart!
@@ElbearToys Honestly your content needs to be everywhere. Me and a retailer were discussing you yesterday. I shot you a PM via some of your socials
By far the best review channel. The way you understand that moving the light is important and presentation is top notch video making.
This is the best review of this figure on youtube! The quality is amazing. You covered every detail! Your review actually convinced me to get this figure. (He comes in August my first 6th scale ever so excited!) Thank you for these quality reviews Elbear! :)
Thank you so much for the kind words 😊
rubber and leather.. the bane of collectors in tropical countries.
that's a lot of nice things he's included with. that Cerberus nunchuck looks really cute.
Dante may not look like 100 percent from the game, but he does look like a very pretty man. in fact from some angle he looks like a masculine Milla Jovovich lol.
Thanks now I can't unsee it 🤣🤣🤣 Gonna use this head sculpt on my next RE Alice kit bash....
As always, thanks for watching~
Asmus released a video once showing that their leather is stronger. So far mine have all held up good compared to HT, etc.
Great review! I love your voice and how you explain every detail. I have the 1.0 Dmc3 Dante. I wasn't a fan of the hair sculpt or color of it. Even the 2.0 still doesn't have his white hair.

Thank you so much for watching~ I actually just finished filming the next review. VTS Cloud might or might not be there 😉
It looks like they used a new body for the 2.0 thus the difference in height.

Hey, are you going to review Vergil/ Nero/ V anytime soon? Your reviews are awesome mate.
Thank you so much for the kind sentiment~ Though I'm afraid I've long missed the boat for these DMC5 figure reviews. I'll be sure to cover them in the future if Asmus ever releases a 2.0 for these characters (not that they really need it).

I am over here waiting for your Tsunshi Mai video to drop. I just got my invoice for her. Did you get yours?
🤔🤔🤔 I haven't gotten my invoice for Mai yet, but pretty excited if her release is imminent. I ordered with OneSixthKit so hopefully the invoice isn't too far behind.
Where's Beowulf? 😢😢
I have first version
And they released this
Damn
Luckily you can just buy the upgrade package where you get the items and headsculpts. I did that.
Someone at IG messaged me that Asmus offered the upgrade package, which I had no idea about 😔 I guess that makes the upgraded costume and decreased figure height on the 2.0 all the more perplexing. But yeah, I'm very glad the upgrade package exists...might actually pick one up for myself.
Are his clothes removable..? Asking for a friend
That’s what I’m trying to figure out
Hello there! Yes, the clothes are removable but it's not really intended to be since they're very meticulously put together. You'll have to start by undoing the harness, which is a lot of work so I wouldn't recommend. Sorry for the late replay 😔
Have this one before but sold em . Sadly the leather cracked .
Still the dmc5 dante still the best.
Anyway nice review.
Now. What am i gonna do to the add ons i bought without the body hahaha

How many centimeters is this figure?
I dont understand, version 1 and 2 what mean? Nowadays preorder is version 2? Or You mean version 2 is luxury?
Ok, so version 1 was released around 2020 (no longer in production, do not buy if someone tells you version 1 is still on pre-order), and version 2 was released in 2022 (should be fully released by now, so I'm not sure how you are still seeing this item as pre-order).

@@ElbearToys What figure is better? DMC 3 or DMC 4 or even DMC 5 Dante Asmus Toys?

Can u do V ?
As Always, love you reviews, sadly, dont like Asmus Toys, i try with Evil Dead figure, but i have to pass
Hello friend! Yeah, Asmus Toys isn't my favorite brand in this hobby either. They have more misses than homeruns. This one and the Crown Series Gandalf the Grey are the only figures I'd recommend.
Oooooh this is some good shit, though the face is a bit jarring
Weird right? It's like...that's not Dante from DMC3 but that's also not "not Dante" 😅
