Glad to hear someone else who ordered from DST that day has gotten theirs- I'm still waiting on mine.
Did they send you an email saying it had shipped, or did it just show up on your doorstep?

I got an email saying it had shipped. Did you shipment information say pending for a while, or did it ship shortly after you ordered it?

Now that I have all the Willows, Spellbook Vamp Willow is definitly my favorite. The only minor flaw I see is the excessive amount of green eye shadow, but its not too noticeable. GWW just looks strange...only the face. But I love the scythe!

I got mine yesterday! Everything is cool...my onnly beef is that the plastic came so scuffed up that I would have been really annoyed if I were a MIB collector...but since I am opening them...all is good.
I also got my ornaments too...they look great! I really like the Dark Witch willow ornament and regular willow ornament!

I got my spellbook today (won one on eBay, since DST had that little hiccup with the sending/recieving thing...) and I'm pretty happy with it. Okay, I was dancing around the room with it, since after the DST thing I wasn't sure I'd ever get one at all.
The figures look great. the blood on Vamp Willow is just enough, not too much. And I can see a little red at the 'roots' of White Witch Willow's hair, but it's not really noticible unless you look for it. Dark Witch Willow is just awesome.
The only thing I don't like about it is the overpowering smell of new plastic that came out the minute I slit the shrink wrap open.
My spellbook is numbere 2560.

I got my Spellbook today off ebay.
Its 1011
Honestly......... I really prefer carded figures.
Packaging is kinda cheap.
Im keeping mine unopened but I notice that figures must sit in a velvetish black casing and I can see little black peices of velvet on my WWW.
They would have looked better sitting in a plastic shell like carded figures with a picture in the background.
If you ask me Vamp Willow could have used alot more blood. Its just a little, I would have like to see it more extreme, but to each thier own.
Really Im not to excited about seeing more of these sets in this type of packaging.
The carded figures display much better.
The slight variants just dont justify this set to me.
If your looking to open these this is the way to go since WWW has full articulation and the Vamp Willow is a little cooler than the carded one.
Who cares about the Dark Witch Willow containing the Green Flame cause you cant see it anyway if you leave MIB.
Im kinda worried about DST overproducing the new figures.
Im not REALLY complaining about 10 new Willows but...
Id also like to see 10 NEW BUFFYS and a BUFFY BOT
ANYWAY................
I would like these better if the variants were more variant like and if the packaging was a little nicer.
I am really excited about the 5 Anyas, Id even take another Ayanka variant !!!!!!!!!!

I just got mine from Time and Space toys, and I'm REALLY glad I won it. If I knew how much I'd like it, I probably would have bought one. Anyway, I'm just pleased to have a few to open, since they are really neat in themselves. Love 'em!

I got mine a while ago. I really like the figures, except for WWW's face, I'm not sure what they did there. But I do like the set, its really good to have for display it looks awesome. I hope if they do make another boxset like the slayers handbook or something, that they make the packaging much more sturdy, the plastic on mine came to be very wavy and bent looking.

the plastic on mine came to be very wavy and bent looking. The plastic on mine is wavy and bent looking, too. But at least we got the spellbook even if the packaging is cheap.

Just got mine today from time and space toys. I was starting to get afraid that it got lost while shipping cause it's been over 5 weeks since they charged my creditcard. I picked it up from the postoffice and i thing it looks really good. The only downside was that i had to pay 10 euros importtax when i picked it up from the postoffice.
