While I don't always agree with some of the things in ToyFare magazine, their most recent list is quite accurate. They counted down the top 100 toys of the past 10 years and the deluxe GD Buffy made the #41 spot. I'm not sure DST even cares about this sort of thing, but I hope they realize that if all they do is get great likenesses and reuse the interchangeable parts, the deluxe line could go far. Anyway, here's a scan of the pages...

It was an Optimus Prime Transformers toy. Didn't really look into what it was. And as a side note, the Angel PALZ was somewhere int the 90s.

I'm glad at least one of the Deluxe figures made that list. Though I think OMWF Buffy is a bit better. "School Hard" Spike would be my top pick... I love that figure.

I think the deluxe Buffy with the ponytail is better.

I've got OMWF and EoD and I think the latter is the best of the 3.
Good to see a lotof Palisades item there. They were a great company, it's sad they went tits up.

I like all the deluxe Buffys, but GD is definitely my favorite.

There is no need to debate whether EOD Buffy was better than GD Buffy because the 41st place is representative of the entire line. I quote from the article, "You may not see some figures here that you think were among the best, but the competition was fierce, and sometimes we had to pick a single character from a line where most of the figures deserved to be here."

A lot of Muppets made the cut. Super Grover was way up there at 21, Adventure Kermit made 15, and the Swedish Kitchen Playset was 25. I love that Muppet line is still getting recognition .
