|  | Premium Format Spike & 12 inch Giles
« Thread Started on Jul 18, 2006, 9:40pm » | |
Hi everyone!
I was walking past the Sideshow booth when I saw their new Premium Format Spike figure in the display case. All I can say is 'WOW!', he's beautiful!
I walked around to the front where I talked to one of the Sideshow representatives who gave me permission to announce the Spike figure, but asked me not to take pictures, as they still wanted to be the ones to give the big preview of the figure. (Which I readily agreed to, so I apologize for not showing you any pictures). I then asked him if or when would we be seeing a Giles figure, he looked at me funny and said Giles was in the display case with Spike, and then also gave me permission to announce him.
The reason I didin't see the Giles figure was he was still in plastic wrap and laying among other figures on the bottom of the case, which included the new Angel figure and the new Lorne figure.
From what I could see, he appeared to be in a grey suit (librarian type, and was not wearing glasses. I can give you a better discription tomorrow night after he's properly displayed, unless of course Sideshow has already sent out their own announcement and pictures by then, and you won't need me to tell you.) 
The PF Spike is in classic trenchcoat and red shirt and looks amazing.
I told myself I wouldn't be buying any other PF figures, because I can't afford them, but I think I already know I will probably break down and get him.
Anyway, that's all I know right now. I didn't want to be a bother while they were setting up. I'll wait til their done to do that. 
Karen

Thanks for news Karen!!!
Woo Hoo Giles!!! And I really thought the next premium would be Angel, but it makes sense to do human spike seeing how well the 12" one did. If you want one I would order one right when it goes on presale, I could see this selling for large amounts in the future on ebay.

OH brilliant!! I thought the Lorne figure was going to be the figure they were revealing. But now Giles as well!!!! How exciting this is the figure I wanted next most of all.... Fingers crossed for glasses!

GILES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (i'm just a tad happy).
Holy cow sideshow have announced a lot lately. Remember when we got a sneak peek at cordy and then waited ages for any news. Now it's cordy, lorne, giles and pf spike all in quick succession.
I can't wait for photos.

OMG a PF Spike!
Wearing the duster aswell. Oh god I swore that I wasn't going to buy one of these type of figures, but depending what the likeness is like now I'm not so sure!
Hopefully if the likeness is good this will be a chance for serious Spike fans/collectors to buy the ultimate Spike figure. I just can't wait to see it, so I hope that folks manage to get some images up of him soon.
And a Giles aswell! Fantastic!

I am so glad that we will finally be getting a Giles figure. I'm surprised that the next Premium Figure is not Angel, I would've thought that Angel would definately have been next. I can't wait to see pix of these. I was so hopinh for another Cordelia but from Buffy, but at least we will getting 1 Cordelia figure so far.

I am already getting the PF Buffy but will have to rob a bank to afford Spike too. Giles is only a maybe. He will have to look pretty realistic for me to get him as I am running out of room and am still hoping for a human faced Darla, Illyria and a Lornette Fred.

Oh man! So excited about the Giles!!! I feel like we've been waiting forever for him. This is great that Sideshow is starting to pump out some new Buffy/Angel figures. It was in a lull for a little while. Very psyched.
I'm sure Spike will be just unbelievable but I just can't afford to start collecting pfs.
Can't wait to see pictures!
