Elisabeth Anne Allen = Amy LOL. You are WAAAAAY too smart. That is what must've happened in my head - I meant Amy. She had a nice run during Season 6...and she's been around since Season 1.

Boy, those look cool! They're almost identical to Minimates. And if they're 2 1/2", that means they're in scale with the "normal" sized Mates (elves and humans)from the Lord of the Rings series. Cool beans! But $7.99 a piece? That's really high. I can get two Marvel Minimates for less, and a five-pack of Marvel Minimates at TRU was only $10. Something tells me there's going to be two per pack, or LOADS of accesories. I won't order them til there's a definite on one of those.

How big are the Buffy Palz?? man, they look good and I am definitely picking up buffy...but at $7.99 a piece, it is very pricey! I might just save up on money and just get the rest of the Sideshow figures instead! I mean Sideshow is $40 or almost the price of 5 palz! Getting Sideshow seems to make more sense, or maybe getting a Diamond Select figure, which is equivalent to 2 PALZ...

Hey all,
Travis here from Palisades Toys. I'm new to the boards here, but I am HUGE Buffy fan, and so I wanted to take a few seconds to give you a little bit more information on PALz...
First of all, this is an all-new, never before seen body. They stand about 2 1/2 inches tall -- not the largest, nor the smallest block figures on the... well, block.
Also, they have more articulation than any block figures that have come before them -- 18 points of articulation, to be exact. And, if you look closely, both the heads and the feet are significantly different than anything that has come before them. (May be hard to see that, given the head-on angle of these images!)
Are they similar to other block figures..? Yes, in that they ARE block figures, but I assure you, in true Palisades fashion, no corners have been cut.
Now, another question that people have been asking pertains to the "transformation" feature that we've been talking about. For each figure that you purchase, you will receive the parts necessary to transform the figure into a NEW version on the same character. So, essentially, you are getting 2 figures in one pack. Plus each will include accessories... PLUS you get an exclusive Inkworks card!!
So, that's the deal... But I am available if anyone has any further questions. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Travis

Hey Travis,
Will the Buffy Palz be available for Preorder at Diamond Comics?? I'm from the Philippines, so ordering from Diamond is my best option to get the Buffy Palz. Also, if I do get from Diamond, do they sell by the case or by the piece?? If by the case, what's the breakdown?
I'm really curious by what the cemetary environment would look like. Will it be like lego??
Last question, and I mean no offense, but would all the block figures that are out in the market like Kubrick, Minimates, etc, doesn't Lego sue these companies or something???
Thanks!

Hey Travis, Love your guys' stuff, especially the Muppets line. Keep up the great work!! For some reason, I never put together Palisades and Muppets. Thanks for reminding me. Man with Muppets, these new Buffy Palz, and the upcoming Army of Darkness and Adult Swim lines, Palisades is gonna be taking a lot of my money!

I really like these, can't wait for them to come out. I'm hoping Angel, Cordy, Spike, Dru, Oz, and The Judge are next in line

Hi, Travis. I'm not really a fan of block figures (and consequently the Palz) but I love what Palisades have done with the Muppets as well as the Alien busts. Keep up the great work!

The actually are quite appealing now, and the Inkworks card just sweetens the deal

Hey all, Thanks for the warm welcome! Raven-Honestly, I am not sure when we will be able to show the alternate faces, but I am sure that it won't be too long now. I will be posting here, but you guys are always welcome to visit OUR site & message board too @ www.Palisadestoys.comEricksonTan - Yes, the PALz will be available through Diamond (as all of our products are). In fact, they will be in the next issue of Previews. The cemetary is not an environment, per se. Each figure will come with a different tombstone, and it'll be up to YOU to build the environment as you colllect. As for LEGO suing everyone, I don't think it's possible. Although they were probably the first company to do block-style figures (I think, I haven't done research) each company has engineered its own body-type. Dunno. Certainly HOPE that doesn't happen!! Finally, thanks for all the props on the Muppet figures. They really are our pride and joy right now, and it's nice to know there are other folks out there who cross over into both the Buffyverse and the... um, Muppeverse... Later gang, Travis

Now that Palisades is doin Buffyverse items, what are the chances that we MIGHT get to see something exclusive like a Muppet Angel figure? I think a lot of us would love to see that... Even if its the product of a bored designer for fun ^_^ I buy one!
