Now with DST saying they like to do the big four, brings me to the question, since Buffy and Faiths outfits (from "Graduation Day") can simpley be made with just a repaint. Will Buffy and Faith share the same body or will DST scuplt something new for Faith?

They'll (most likely) have the same body with a repaint.

Yeah it'll probably be a repaint. The only adjustment I could think of would be the bust but I guess it isn't a vital thing really.
I wonder if Angel and Spike will share the same body? I hope not cos' Angel's alot bigger than Spike is.

Do you think DST will be able to capture Eliza Dushku's likeness? MAC didn't do it and while leaps and bounds better Sideshow's Faith figure still isn't right either. I hope they make her hair straight like in the episode, I mean even when in a coma in the hospital she had perfectly straight hair (must have been the chi).

I think her likeness will be the best one yet, DST is really going all out with their lines these days. As for the hair, curly is nice too. |

OT - Thanks ToodlesMrJim for the info on Snake Pilssen from the Diamond thread.
As for the topic at hand. I would love to see Faith receive her own unique body sculpt because she has an all-over more curvy, volumptuous and healthier looking physique than Buffy does.
That said, if they end up sharing the same body that will be fine as well. Does anyone know what colour combination Faith wore in Graduation Day (i.e. what pants, top and jacket)?
I didn't think anyone could top MAC's Spike, but both Sideshow and Diamond have so I'm hopeful when it comes to Faith. Sideshow's looks terrible and could be pretty much anyone. Who do Sideshow use to scan, is it Gentle Giant as well?
As for Angel and Spike. Again they should have different body sculpts because of the vast difference in their girths, but I'd be happy with them sharing the same sculpt if we could get different jackets and if their vamp heads are packed as an accessory so you don't have to buy another figure just to get a different head.
Cheers,
Haeph.

Faith I believe wore dark blue jeans, white top with a design on it, and a leather jacket. She also had straight hair. And I do not think that Sideshow did their Faith with a scan, they just did the sculpt from photo references. When a picture of the Faith surfaces, we will most likely be able to tell whether or not they used a scan. But either way I bet that DST won't let us down.  |

I can't wait for these two figures I am looking forward to the Spike and Angel also but it's these two I really want, I can't wait.

Gentle Giant never said that they had a scan of Eliza. The fact that she's never had one done makes me think maybe she never will, or is simply "too busy." I think at this point she'll be hand-sculpted, because if she was to be scanned, I would think that would have already happened (assuming that they want to release her within a couple months of Buffy if not at the same time). The figure should look good as long as they remember that she has big eyes! Add in a slight smirk, and she'll be great.

As far as I know, the Deluxe Faith figure is being sculpted without a scan.

Maybe DST will do different torso sculpts for the figures (to account for bigger bust/wider chest) but save some money by reusing arms and legs, or at least parts of them.
Judging by the Spike figures (specifically the astounding number of different head sculpts), DST doesn't seem willing to settle for 'close enough' -- I'm hoping that's the case here, and we won't wind up with generic female and male bodies that aren't quite right for one or both character(s).

I hope DST quality and detail holds true for Faith.
