I really like this figure, it's very pretty, and I love the dress.
I'm glad I'd already pre-ordered it from Forbidden Planet ;)

Wow! I love Tara. I like the body sculpt. 5.2 will be one of my favourite lines.

You're forgetting that Drusilla was in a dress. I'm glad they did a better job on Tara . Right, I forgot Dru. I don't have either Drusilla figure yet, so that's probably why it didn't come to mind. Oh yeah, I forgot Prophecy Girl Buffy. Heh.  |

I wasn't so happy when I first saw this figure. But the more I look at it them better likeness I see. I just wish she looked happier. Anya doesn't have a real smile on, but she at least looks happy. But I still can't wait to get this figure.

i can't wait for these figures to come out. i'm still waiting for my willows but does anyone else think these new figures are alot brighter than the previous ones. it might just be me but buffy figures almost symbolised doomy and gloomy colours (mainly black) and now are full of colour, maybe it's just the characters but they will certainly burst a bit of life into my shelf.

i love all of the new figures/figure concepts that have been shown/mentioned! i am not crazy about the paint aps on taras cloths, however! i think the flower looks like a painted on flower, not like it is part of the fabric, and the print on the dress looks very slopy to me, but...that said, I LOVE THIS FIGURE! i can quickely get over what ever qualms i have for the paint details when i look at her face! and also, i hated the willow paint scheme when i first saw it and now, she is one of my favirotes!

Taras clothes make her look like a crazy person. They're way too mismatched. I dunno, I really don't like the neckline on her dress, it should be a lot lower, and the full length dress thing just isn't working. I wish they woulda picked an outfit that was a top with a skirt, that's much more Tara and would look a hell of a lot better anyway. The head looks awesome, but the body is just yuck.

I recall being told by I believe Donna that the decisions regarding pose and clothes for this figure were decided by Fox. It's from the season 5 promo pictures, that outfit was relatively nice, not something Tara would wear but nice. I agree that this one doesnt exactly match, but a lot of Tara's clothes in season 4/early 5 (which because of the blonde hair I assume this is made from) didn't match. |

I agree that that's what Donna said, but I don't think she said it was from the season 5 promos. That one did have a shirt and boots, not a long dress and heels. Hehe, plus she did wear that outfit in some ep...you mean the one with the blue sweatshirt and zebra top? Now the season 6 promo outfit...if tara ever wore that, I would be amazed. |

Also, the sweatshirt the figure is wearing is from the episode "New Moon Rising" isn't it? |

Hopefully Tara's articulation will cut her at the right section of her torsoe so that we can get a varient of her in a shirt and skirt look. The second pic WillFan posted is the style I'm talking about. They could make that outfit if they wanted to. I'm not saying they should, but the overshirt and stuff. I still think the neckline on the Regular Tara's dress is ricockulous though. PLEASE MAKE IT LOWER!!! With a necklace or something!
When they say "regular candle" as an accessory, do they mean as opposed to an irregular one? WTF is regular candle supposed to mean?

Of course if they wanted to make a OMWF Tara, they'd only have to find a buyer for the exclusive, which would rock. I really really really want a OMWF Tara variant. Do you think there's any way to help make it happen? Perhaps email some of the possible buyers for an exclusive figure and politely and enthusiastically let them know how much we would like a OMWF Tara and encourage them to ask Diamond about making the figure. Who would be best to contact about this? Cinequest? Time and Space Toys? Or would it be better to contact Diamond directly? |

I don't think there's anything we can do. Diamond knows we want one. Sites that come to the forum know we want one. If one is interested, then it might happen. I wouldn't bank on it just yet, though. I have not heard any confirmation that a OMWF Tara is in the works, and it would be a brand new sculpt (very expensive). It's all up the the possible exclusive holders, and I wouldn't even know who to e-mail.

Tara looks wicked cool! Hopefully she, Anya, and Willow figures are just a sign of good things to come from D.S.T.!

I really like her! she's taken longer to produce, but already we know her acessories and Base. I'm saving up for her already. I have a feeling the only varients we'll get is OMWF Tara and the repaint in her bookset.
