I guess one figure is better than none.
Also, why a Faith statue?

Not to be a killjoy but I'm kinda with Grumble on this one. Well at least we're getting one of the Willow figures I guess.
December huh? So, let's see, going by what we've come to expect, do you think October 2004 sounds oabout reasonable for getting this figure?

I am absolutley thrilled. We got the best of the 3. It has the best face sculpt, and I can make a Chosen buffy from it hehe
And with the other news JD posted, we could be seeing regular Willow as well. This is better than nothing! Willow has worn the jacket b4 she went bad so repaint the hair and pants and it would still work as a normal willow.
Im excited and I plan to order a million of them

I just placed my preorder for some. I may do more but my credit cards expire before Decemeber. I say we all buy at least one and make an investment and statement we want more figures. Petitions may catch their attention but money is what will change the world.

Hello. This is my first post on this message board, so "Hi everyone!" I'm very excited about the return of Dark Willow...I've already pre-ordered mine from Cinequest.com. I also recieved an e-mail from someone that stated: We are working with MAC to have another figure produced that will be exclusive to our store, similar to what is being done with Dark Willow. Other deals like this may be worked out with other retailers as well. I'm not going to give out this stores name, but they are very trustworthy, so all we can do is hope. I'm glad to have joined this forum! -CMK

Well, that is some good news. At least we are definitely getting one of the most requested out of the in-progress figures. I'm still hoping for Vamp and regular Willow... and some of the others... And if Cinequest can do this, so can those other companies! Maybe it's time to direct our attention towards other stores / compaines to get more figures made... God, even another set of Ikon exclusives would be great.

Did anyone who placed an order for the Vamp Willow show any activity on their credit card of Debit account? I just checked online and I have a pending activity for the same amount as my "preorder" amount. I don't know, I was just checking. Thanks!

WOW! Cinequest wants $8.15 for shipping, and I'm in Seattle! Mine came to 24.10. But I still pre-ordered it...don't want anyone to tell me there wasn't enough pre-orders!

Oh…and for a minute I though cinequest was a reasonable store. I suggest to whomever got such a huge shipping fee to wait a bit until stores like MyPopStore, Comic Infinity and The Toy Depot put this figure for preorder as well.

The total for my figure was $20.94. I don't mind paying that amount for a figure I really want...

Yeah, cinequest does have a high shipping rate... I was completely suprised when I ordered my torso dru statue. I think I'll order it from MAC, I guess.

You're right, all those stores will have the figure too. The Ikon figures were not exclusive to Australia not matter what they tried to say. The ikon were all over and i think these figures will be too.

God, I was gonna pre-order this, but with all the people complaining about high shipping rates, I might just wait....
I wonder how much their shipping is to PA....
