Yeah, they look great ! Except the mouth of hawaian shirt Angel which is very curiously painted (maybe it's just the pic), I really like this figure !
Please BCC, I know that I'm a international customer, I know that I pre-ordered them only the first week of June, but don't wait two years to send them to me. (They don't have send yet the Library Playset than I pre-ordered 5 weeks before the release date so...)

Thanks for the pics, I can't wait to get mine today. I don't know how many there are because Kevin from the BCC emailed me to let me know what exactly was going on with my order:
My guess is that they were split up. There is an order number in the tracking email (it is the reference number). I am in Chicago, so I cannot check more for you.
Also, please be aware, some of the tracking info for this week, may not line up exactly because we had to prepare shipping lables in advance since we are mostly all in Chicago this week. We had to guess at the rate they would get packed based on the limited staff left behind. Some some packages may take a day or two longer to arrive.
It's a tough time of the year for new product to hit, as the summer cons involve so much time for promotion etc..
Thanks,
Kevin
So I could get just the figures that were from that Order which were 50's Angel & The Hawaiin 2 pack or I could get more figures added in. I guess that I will have to find out after work when I come home and open the box. I hope that my day of work goes by fast I am so anxious to get these figures.

I just received a shipping notice from DHL. I don't know if it's my 50s Angel or Primeval Buffy. Both are still listed as Pre-orders at BCC, but it has to be one of them. I'm excited! Woo hoo!
Looking at the pictures from Jinxieman, I'm thinking Spike's shirt will be great for customizing a Doomed Spike in regular 6 inch, maybe in the short pants!
Also, it'll work great from some dorky Xander customs.
Angel's hat sure is a bad fit, isn't it? I don't like that Hawaiian Angell too much. I think the body looks weird.
But Hawaiian Spike without his shirt looks pretty cool!

I think the lip paint job is just my figure...it's just poorly painted. I think I will be fixing that. And Doomed Spikes arms are removable.

Thanks for the pics Jinxieman... I now know I need to get the rest of these! I love my SH Spike! Anyone else thinking that a 70s Spike can be made from that Doomed Spike? He needs an altered shirt, combat boots, an altered hairdo...  |

Thanks for the pics guys. I would love to see Hawaiin Spike with the White vest and red shirt on. Also I would like to see Hawaiin Spike with the sleeves cut off to give it articulation?
When will the UK get them???

Also, can anyone post pics of comparison between Hawaiin Angel head and Ring or S5 Angel, and S5 Spike vs School hard or Hawaiin Spike

I got all the figures today, except for the 2-pack. That one must be shipping later. I have to say I really like these figures - the likenesses are great! The battle damaged variants are my favourites  |

I got the Hawaiin 2 pk today and "Are You Now or Have You Ever Been" 50's Angel. I guess that I will have to wait until next week to get my "Destiny" figures and maybe the next week to get "School Hard" Spike.

Why deluxe figures are still listed as pre-orders in BCC store ? However They charged my credit cart for my pre-order of deluxe Angel and Spike figures the 17/07/06. I know that they started to ship the first packages with deluxes figure at the beginning of this week, so why they charged 2 weeks before ?
BCC don't answer to my emails. I'm still in wait of my library playset, pre-ordered 5 weeks before release date. I always disappointed with them. But they have great prices and free figures...

Mine came today all apart from 50's and school hard because i forgot to order them (Doh) I am lovin them and think they are better than the normal 6" line the only flaw with angel is the head it's just not as good as the S5 one. I like the way angel has differnt legs to spike so there not both the same figure with a varied colour scheme. I would of liked the battle damage varients to have normal faces as to vamps as then they could of painted Angels shirt black and called them 'not fade away' varients. Doomed spike needed removable shirt arms like the angel so the shirt wouldn't look so baggy but the overall quality is high. I think I'm gonna get rid of my 6" S5 and just rewards spikes and change my 50's angel into 'the ring' when I get him as the braclet fits the arms or maybe add a jacket to him to make S1 buffy angel. Anyway the best thing with this line is your not limited of how you can stand, dress or pose your figures for example I've made a chosen deleux spike and Vamp doomed spike, the heads pop of real easy. heres some pics      |

Those pictures are amazing. This line is definitely going to help even out any scale problems with the regular line. Now you can finally display a spike with Fred without it looking silly and he still looks good next to Buffy, too.

I got all 4 of the "Destiny" Figures today and I love them. The only one that I am waiting to get now is "School Hard" Spike, which I am hoping will ship next week and hopefully ship with my "Primeval" Buffy and extra "Chosen" Buffy.
