I’ve finally got my deluxe Buffies and I’m really pleased with them. Each one looks great, and it’s cool how easily they can be posed. I only wish they would’ve came earlier, because my kitten died recently from a liver disease, and I can’t say I fully enjoy these figures.

I received all of the DLX figs this morning. Overall, I am pretty impressed with the packaging (though I nearly sliced my thumb of with my craft knife opening EOD Buffy!) and the figures, though I do have a couple of gripes. The paint does not seem to have a smooth finish on these figures and doesn't match on body parts. My EOD Buffy has a different coloured bum. GD Buffy is missing an eyebrow and EOD Faith has this weird mutant hand going on: seriously its deformed . I am also having issues getting EOD Buffy to stand (this is in normal standing pose). Sure, she is great to pose in your hands but a peg base to put her in an ass-kicking pose would have been excellent. Hopefully these annoyances can be ironed out for the next wave. BTW, Lior Knight, I am sorry to hear about your kitten.

My EOD Faith has a messed up/short/deformed hand also. My Bad Girls Faith has perfect hands but instead she has two left feet It means she can't go 5 minutes without falling over.

I got my EOD Buffy last week, but it's been crazy at work and I am only now getting to fully apprecicate what a great figure she is. This one seriously raises the bar for all future figures, deluxe line and regular line! There aren't any paint or joint problems with her, but hse doesn't stand on her own. I'm normally a MOC collector, and had no intention of opening this one either, but as soon as I opened the shipping box, I knew I had to x-acto her out of there, STAT! I'm thinking I might use my dremel to drill out a small hole in the heel of the foot and use my Pre-Production White Witch Willow Base to stand her up. Of all the bases I think that would go best with her.

I can't wait to get my "End of Days" Buffy, she is the only one that I need now. I also can't wait until they announce or show pictures of Deluxe Angel and Deluxe Spike.

I got EoD Buffy last night, and so far she's my favorite Deluxe figure. I can't wait to open her, but I've almost de-contaminated GD Buffy of that horrible new plastic smell, so I'm going to wait till she's okay, then replace her in the decon area with EoD Buffy. I was going to open OMWF Buffy next, but EoD Buffy is just too awesome to wait.
Hey, for those who've taken their figures out of the packages, can they hold the accessories without the clear plastic rubber bandy things? I'm tempted to take them off the figures so I can pose them with other accessories, but I'm sort of nervous about it.

I just think they have the plastic band on it so they don't fall out of their hand during shipping, since that happends alot during action figuers. Sometimes it may be a little loose, but they hold their accessories fine.

Awesome, thanks! I knew I liked these figures for a reason. Couple of notes for OMWF Buffy. The pool cube is loose the hire up. Better for you to have her hold it with both arms, or holding the darker part. The stake, though, fits nicely. But, she looks much better with the pool cube over the stake.

Well I got OMWF Buffy today and I love her. Her pool cue is so cool. Because she doesn't have a base a put her in my Bronze Playset, and she looks great!
I can't wait to pic up my EOD Buffy tommorow! I think Ill end up agreeing with urbandruid about her being my favorite.

Picked up my first deluxe figure today! My local Fp only has GD buffy and faith so I picked up GD buffy. I originally didnt like these figure and thought I'd buy one for the hell of it and if I didnt like it I'd use it for customs. I can safely say that I LOVE her. When you see pictures on the web it doesnt loook like they will be in scale with the rest of the buffy figures but I'm so glad they are. I'll have to order the rest as my Fp doesnt have any more apart from faith Gd.

Is it just me or does the Deluxe Line seem to be the most popular line in some time? Maybe it's just cause it's the first "Buffy" figures DST has released? But then again, everyone seems to really like Faith too.. I really hope these do *extremely* well for DST so they keep the Deluxe line going. They are just so cool with the endless variety of poses. I actually find myself "playing" with these more than any other figures in the lines. I hope they do Willow (White Witch, Dark Witch minimum), Angel and Spike of course, and I LOVE the idea of a couple villians like a Deluxe UberVamp (though a regular figure would be awesome too, and would go oh so well with Chosen Buffy to battle). I dunno, I think with a little tooling that the "Deluxe" line needn't be anything separate...but all I know is I LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!

I think it's because these are the first Buffy figures we've had in ages, and they are really cool. And just about everyone who knows who Buffy is knows Faith, so I think this was a good choice for how to start the Deluxe figure waves. They seem to be selling really well in stores here, my Suncoast was getting cleaned out last time I was there.
Oh, hey, just noticed you're from Morgantown. I have family from there. Go Mountaineers! (And now, back to Buffy figs...)
