OK, so this is the color model we submitted to FOX for approval. They dug it except for the mole and asked me ever so kindly to remove it. I wanted it on because Eliza has one and thought it was a nice nod to the actress. They have given me the authority to let the fans decide. So think long and hard, the fate of the mole rests in your hands. In addition to the poll, you can e-mail us at our site at info@electrictiki.com and in the subject line write "keep the mole" or "lose the mole". And please, no personal attacks on my new hair cut. Please spread the poll far and wide, as you guys are probably much more familiar with the online Buffy community. thanks, Tracy Mark Lee Electric Tiki Design PS. I didn't see how to add a pic to the poll, so look for it in the Electric Tiki General talk thread above.

Once the picture is up I'll post this poll on Whedonesque and a couple of other sites. I have to say though, the mole sounds like a nice detail.

I've posted the pole on a few sites, and some are for it, some against. A few seems to think it looks like dirt or bad painting, so if you're going to keep it(hope you will), maybe make it darker?
Of course, then it will look unrealisticly bold, compared to Eliza's.

The mole is fine with me, it's the chin I don't like. Also...her colors seem so bland next to the other ones, but then again, we need to see a difference and well, black and white, that's faith! So, all in all...AWESOME!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! I will have to get both now, darn it! See this is why I have no room for all the new Buffy stuff. But Tracy, I love these pcs and I haven't missed a single one. I appreciate how they are kind of spread out. I need time in between each! Any news on when Glory and Dark Willow will actually start shipping?

Cool. I think I prefer the white one.
Will they have exchangeable hands? So I can switch between knife and stake no matter which I buy?

Yeah both will is says on the site. So we'll have a stake and knife for each. So that is great for people who prefer to get just one over the other.
Will this faith be up for pre-order during comic con? I will have to make sure I don't leave my pc!

Faith looks amazing! Thanks for the new pictures I prefer the traditional white vested version, but they're both cool.

Voted pro-mole. The people who that are buying this are fans, and will appreciate the detail.

I love the mole and will definately be getting both versions. Electric Tiki does it again. I can't wait to see Spike and hopefully Caleb gets made. I would love to see Xander, Giles, Cordelia and Angel.

I just want to see some that will actually sell so the line stays open. SSC has made some grand errors on which 1:6 to produce next. And I don't want ET to do the same. And I'm sure they wont because so far, we're doing well here. Then again, I'm not so happy about two of the same willows. What I wish we could of had from the second willow is maybe some glowy fireballs in her hand. That would have been something at least. With Buffy we had different items, scythe, pool cue, stake. So we had options. But I'm sad we don't have anything new for willow besides hair and clothes. Now don't get me wrong. I am not bashing ET designs one bit. I have them all and on pre-order too. I will support this line always. I just want to know that my statues will be unique and 'not so uniform' to each other. So yeah, fireballs would have been cool in dark willows hand. If you're going to seriously make two spikes, let's have something different in his hands for each. Give us options other than just different color clothes! With Faith we get clothes and also interchangeable hands. SO I can use the stake in one and knife with the other. That's something. I don't know if Caleb will be a big seller, we all say we want to see them, but a lot of the people I know who actually collect these pcs aren't looking for Caleb as much as they are these pcs: Spike, Faith, and I know it's not the same line, but Illyria. Buffy/Angel fans are jonesing for an ANYTHING Illyria!

I think Caleb would be a huge seller, cause I think they do it like Glory. Limited run of 500, she sold out in days! and Caleb is someone we dont have as a figure or anything. Its nice to have chars we havent seen!! I cant wait to see Spike and we might see him at the next comic-con with Faith! so I keep my fingers cross on seeing Spike soon! And the best thing I think about E. Tiki is Tracy keeps us informed and ask what we want to see!!! How long has it been since we had anyone do that for the fans and keep their word! So I support this line as long as it goes and I only hope we get even more great statues from E. Tiki!!
