So I wanted to know everyone's opinions on the Buffy Bot figure. I actually like it, I think its cute. Most people are all like," Oh the Buffy Bot head is ugly and doesn't look like Buffy at all. I think its just the way it was painted, after a repaint mine looke great. Then I decided to use her head for a Buffybot custom.

well compared to the promo images we saw of the figure, it is pretty ugly. the likeness is there but its incredibly hard to bring out, especially with the paintjon DST gave it

The Buffybot head doesn't have the best likeness to Sarah. Something's off but I can't really tell what. The smile is not natural enough maybe. But I have to say I never tried to repaint it, so maybe I could be surprised.

The finale result, not so much. I like it overall but would have killed to get my hands on that prototype.

Personally, I don't like the Buffybot head. I think it's a horrible likeness to SMG, with an unnatural smile that borders on creepy. I can understand why most customizers shy away from using it. The original prototype looked great, too bad that's not what we got

i agree Buffybot face makes her look kind of a monkey smiling a creepy smile, smg is beautiful they should've fixed it, i still wish we got the prototype one above but just a question why is that buffybot (lol buffyboy) now tilting to one side she looks like she's about to fall

Her bottom jaw sticks out too much. I cut mine off and adjusted a mil or two. Looks better that way.

Sorry, but I don't think that face looks anything like SMG. It is just plain awful. Anne.

I've never seen that prototype before. It's a lot better than the final result. Yes, the final figure's jaw sticks too far forward and the chin is too shallow. I've only tried to use it once. I made a few alterations, like raising the forehead and the lower lip, and altering the chin. I think it improved the likeness, but it still looks unnatural, and therefore only works for the bot, IMO, not for Buffy herself.

Even if I don't think the official Buffybot figure is as ugly as many of you think (I like mine, I had the chance to have one with good paintjob), I'm agree with Sasha, this Buffybot head is only good for Buffybot custom. On the real Buffy, the smile looks not natural at all.
PS : Sasha, your Buffybot custom is really good, you did big improvements on this head. It was a 7 inches scale custom ?

I hate the Summers boxset Buffy, it's the ugliest Buffy made, mine has a horrible paintjob, my Buffybot head is a lot better.

I guess DST still own it, like the rest of their protos.
