I'm not crazy about having to buy what is basically the same figure 6 or 7 times. This is stupid. Having to buy? Who's making people buy them? I'm not crazy about having to buy what is basically the same figure 6 or 7 times. This is stupid. Mattel made that mistake with the Batman figures, they had tons of variants of the same figure. It's another ploy to make us pay again and again for what is the same figure and mold. They just make small changes in parts or colors. Can we expect "Aqua Gear Tara" and "Jungle Safari Anya"? This is dumb, 9 Willow figures? 6 Anya? Who knows how many Taras!!!!! It's niche marketing that kills a line. As long as people keep buying them, they're going to keep making them.

Having to buy? Nobody says you have to. Buy the ones you want, don't buy the ones you don't
And where these differ from figures like Batman is that they're all "real" varients. None of them (well, Dingoes Willow, but that still rocks) have been made up, they're all based on specific things, and all reasonably different (except Vamp and Dopplegandland Willow and stuff like that) The problem with the multiple Batmen is that 90% of them are pointless and look kinda stupid.
I do however think the Anya's might end up a little too similar? If you think about it, regular Anya, OMWF Anya and Bunny Anya will all be standard looking ordinary Anyas...they could have gotten around this by making the regular one in a OMWF outfit, not having that as a varient (I'm not suggesting they do thid now, as obviously they've sculpted the regular one and all,. but it would have been an idea).

I disagree...I think "the more figures, the better." Long ago, back when we started this whole quest to get our Buffy figures back on track, this is what we had hoped for...in fact, this is more than we could have hoped for. We just wanted the regular planned figures back, but we now are recieving tons of unique variants, which will make each collection even more fantastic. I think the only thing we should do about all of these figures we are getting is be happy. This is what we worked to achieve, and we've met our goals...even exceeded them! So let's be grateful. -CMK

I like all of them but Anyanka would defintly go with dopple/vamp willow....but i want to see it first!
Hope some have trousers cause skirts are boring on figures like no kicking of moving leg positions!

Personally, I cannot wait for the basic Anya. I do not care for the other varients too much (although that will probably change once I see the figures). I've been waiting for Anya for so long, yet she keeps getting delayed and cancelled. So I will be happy to receive the basic Anya figure once it arrives.

I agree.
And for the record, it's "should HAVE" or "should'VE" - not "should OF." Don't they teach you kids anything at school?

Who the hell picked "none" and "I'm not buying any of them"!!!!!!!!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! These are sooooo awesome and if you're NOT excited or even going to buy them I'm wicked suprised you even visit! Oh my god, i can't even choose one to be excited about. I'm really excited to see how they're gonna pull off each variant and even more excited to know they'll be added to my collection SOON!

I am looking most forward to Wedding Dress Anya. Although I can't afford all of them (atleast not for a long time) I am expecting to buy atleast 1 or 2 Anya's. Any is better than none. Especially if it's the one I want most!!

okay guys, im ditching the numbers for words thing, but i still have concerns as to what this removable bunny suit is going to turn out like. i mean, where are the fastenings going to go, and how are they going to hide the velcro or zip or whatever it is without turning poor Anya into a big, fat, fluffy mess?

they all sound great. This gives us high hopes for Tara. I agree, my friend, I agree! I'm a very big Amber Benson / Tara fan, and I can't wait to see her varients... I think I'll buy the Anya figures in 2's, everytime I have some money... Firstly, Wedding Dress Anya and OMWF Anya. Then Anyanka and Regular Anya. I'm not too sure about Bunny Anya...

I want all of them but the thing is that some of the varients are gonna be hard to get. Wedding dress anya will be available through the San Diego Comicon in the summer( yes I will be going to it, and im excited even thought its a long way from here anyways). I hate it when varients are super hard to get it makes me angry. and you think they will be esier to get later on, but they only get more rare! ;D well i cant wait for tha anyas especially anyanka YAY
