She came out today. I noticed no one posted about buying her. I think most people agreed that she looks great and so many people love the deluxe lines. Yet no one ran out to buy her and post about it? And people wonder why the line is in jeopardy?
I would think today would be a happy Kendra day but instead people would rather whine about bad news.

Um...doesn't she come out tomorrow? I know that my comic shop gets their shipments on Wednesdays. I fully intend (if I can find the money) to go get her tomorrow. I'll buy three eventually. One jacketless and one with jacket and the next one to make into a "regular" Kendra.

I ordered one from PaniksToyBox today. My comic shop, sadly, isn't getting Dlx3 in.

I picked one up today at Forbidden Planet here in NYC. Yes, she officially comes out tomorrow, but FP always puts stuff out the day before....
It was the last one on the shelf, which is good right? But I think there are a lot of Buffy fans who work there...
It's too late and I"m too lazy to post a pic guys, sorry. But it's not bad, the paint job is good, my cross bow is broken in the package, but other than that, it's cool. The becoming sword is cool and Mr. Pointy is cool.
I pray the Judge line comes out and is not really cancelled!!!!

With respect mate, fuck off. What day of the week is it again? Most people have work or other commitments and many have ordered online. Where the fuck are your photos? I'd love to see them. |

Yeah, I agree with FM.
People are quick enough to bitch about the lines ending, but again no good news about the new things.
Face it people DST just dont want to produce them.
Suck it up or shut it!

Since most of us Pre-ordered it, how can we discuss something we are yet to receive it? And why won't FM post some images or rush to buy the figure?  |

He'd rather whine about people whining. lol! ;D No seriously, that's a good question, at its core. How many people will get Kendra? I will order online. The first I could even get to the only store here that will have her in the traffic choked part of town very far away would be the weekend. And that will probably be a 30 - 45% higher markup than retail stores in other cities or online. What's the point? She'll still smell the same when I get her soon enough. |

Why are you all picking on FM? I don't think he's coming off as rude, he's simply making a point. For the past few lines, there's a huge response on the day the figures come out. People got giddy when people were snagging the Gift 2 pack the night before it's release and were excited when pics of the Chosen Buffy and Lessons Dawn were hitting the net. He's simply making the point that we're more bummed that the line is dead instead of caring about what may be one of the last figures to get produced.

There are ways to express this idea: "Have you noticed nobody posted about the newly released Kendra figure?" rather than "no one ran out to buy her and post about it? And people wonder why the line is in jeopardy?". Blaming everybody is easy.  |

Well this whole thread does bring up a really good point regarding DST and the release of the figures.
People can't get excited about the release of the figures, and run out and get them because no one ever knows when they are coming out. We here know, because FM posted in one of the other threads, but if you didn't check that thread or aren't on this forum you'd be going by the date on the DST site, which is still listed as next week.
It's just another facet of DST lack of news releases and marketing on the Buffy line. Delay, Delay, Delay, and people eventually get tired of waiting.

I've gotta agree with that, JBrow. It's been 14 months since we first saw Band Candy Giles. While I reallly wanted him at first, I've waited so long already that I know I won't need to go out and get it the day that it's released.

I posted some pictures of Kendra in the "Official who got Kendra/Willow/Kennedy Thread.
I think she is a great figure. I just wish they had made at least one Variant of her. Her other outfits are much more interesting.

I got Kendra with my set of 4 from the BCC last week, and I like her more than I thought I would. I wasn't jumping up and down for excitement to get her, the way I was with some of the previous figs. I am glad DST made her, though.

Oh I just saw this thread again after posting it. Anyone who bitched me out can go fuck off. You can say whatever you want, but this forum has always been more about bitching and whining than celebrating the figures. And that wont change even if we were to get DST to make a couple more figures.
And I dont post pictures of my figures because theres hardly any point...once I've got them I dont need to see pictures anymore because I own them. And its a pain in my ass to take the pictures and load and post them so I dont bother. And say what you want but I've been doing my part for the buffy line for years now so excuse me if I dont feel like posting pictures of my figures for whiney brats who will just complain about them anyway.
