Saw these in Suncoast Video today. They look decent but sadly they are in a very different scale than Buffy. Why must companies do this??? Why can't they all just stick with one scale and run with it???

I got the Selene one, do to the compulsion I have with any vampire figures. The one thing I have to say is leave her in the card. It is a pain to get her on her stand again. Unless I am missing something.

I wish they would all stick with the 6" scale (1" on a figure equals 1' in real life). Thanks for letting us know about them being out... I'm going to the mall this week so I hope to see them! Whether or not I buy them (or just one) depends on what scale they are. I'm going to be spending enough money as it is when I see the Twisted Land of Oz figures... |

I just got back from the mall. Another toy hunt... another load of $$$ pissed away  The Underworld figures are smaller than Buffy figures, almost GI Joe scale (maybe a bit bigger). They looked OK, but not good enough for me to buy them. If they were in the 6" scale I might have bought some, because they do look awesome... |

Eventhough they're small, the full werewolf looks awesome. The others don't look that good.

There're 5" scale. Too small for a buffy, too big for GI Joe. They are almost in scale with Hasbro's old Starting Lineup figures but they are made a little tall and thin. I got three of them; Selene, Vicktor, and Raze (werewolf) from Tower Records for $10.00 each.

These figures are pretty cool. I bought a Selene figure since I had a little money on me, and it was the last one of her that Suncoast had left. I may go back an get the rest of them later(money permitting). I wish they were more in scale with the Buffy figures, but I'm more concerned with the detail more than I am the size of them. Plus, I'm a sucker when it comes to horror movie figures.

I hate it when they make figures 5" or 7" everyone should make just 6" so then all the figures can look good together.
I sotra wish they would have made a human michael along with the half liken/vampire michael cause human Scott speedman is so cute. I haven't seen a really good picture of selena yet but it looks like they not only should have made the figures 6" but also tried a little harder to make them look better as well.
But I hear that they are probably making an underworld sequal so maybe they will make the figure series for that movie better then they did this one. By the way if anyone has any links to really good close up pictures of the underworld pictures will you post it please.

thanks so much that really helped, but is there any sites where I can also see a close up of selene's figure face.
Also I would like to make Underworld custom's of at least human michael and selene. Does anyone have any suggestions for parts I should use.
For example to make Selene's body it in scale with the 6" buffy series I am going to use the toyfare exclusive of Trinity. Though other then using the underworld selene figure head I am not sure what to use for my custom head.
I am having even more trouble finding a good match for a human face for human michael. I thought that since in the movie other then more hair, blue skin, and black eyes half v/w michael and human michael looked similar enough that the figure would look similar enough as well. But I was wrong I am ok on the body, but I don't have any idea what I can use for a michael head. I don't sculpt from scratch well so I need a head that looks like scott speedman. Does anyone have any good suggestions. Please please post your suggestions.

If you're goning to make a six inch custom of Selena in scale with Buffy figures, you might as well use MAC figures. The likeness for the Mezco figure is pretty poor so you will be better off looking at the pictures of Kate Beckinsale.
