I can't wait to see the Willow pictures for this set, but I hope she's better than this Tara or I probably won't even bother getting it.

I like Tara, don't get me wrong, but I don't think that there is much that can be done with her. Pants, maybe? I don't know. I would have liked a "Seeing Red" Tara, but other than that, what could be done that's not already being given to us (repaints)?

Maybe its better in person but from the very beginning scans, I just never liked this body, there's just something about it. It looks...off. I'm still going to get them but I just can't put my finger on it. The pose/feet don't match to me and her hands look tiny and the jacket looks like a bad custom sculpted jacket. Theres just not a lot of detail in this figure. But the head is superb.

Her sculpt is on the bland side. I really dislike the arms. And her feet are too close together. They shouldn't have given her dress the tapered look. It should be a tiny bit more flowing or something.

I love this figure, but I also do prefer the Hush Tara.

I think the problem with the body is that it's Amber, not Tara.
She lost *SO* much weight when she left the show and the figure shows it based on that and not cuddly tara.

Thas a good point that i dindt think of. I mean, we are very fortunate that Amber agreed to be scanned for her figure, but yes, she is not as hippy as she was in the show. She was a fuller figured woman and she was AMAZING if for no other reason that she was just as good a character and actress as all of the noticably slender women. I can overlook that detail tho with Chase Tara, but a figure that to me is lackluster like this version it is very easy to say, yes that is waht is missing to make her decent... Ah well

Is it just me, or do all the prototypes have 2 points of articulation (at the shoulders)?

The prototypes don't have articulation yet. That's done in production. If you look back at most of the Willow prototypes, they had no articulation either.

it looks AWESOME from that angle. much better i must admit. the shirts, although too perfect, do resemble 2 shirts moreso i think. i really can't wait to get this one!
I can also tell where the bases will connect, and the boards will all be going left to right, which will look really nice. However, my Willows that I have right now must not be on their bases right because most of them have the boards going up and down. She just looks in the center that way. hmmm..... how do you guys position her?

The shirts do resemble 2 shirts. Yea...I noticed that, too. From this angle, you can see how the coat has a bit of a thinkness to it, allowing them to paint a lighter blue on the side to make it appear as if there are more than two coats. I guess seeing the figures in their true light all depends on the angle at which you look at them. -CMK
