Just a heads up...Cinequest now has an 'official' photo of the Hush Willow and Hush Tara figures together with their accessories. -CMK

That is the crudest way to market this set. Look, everyone! Lesbians! Gay couple! First ever, buy now!
Way to betray the integrity of the characters, and what the show so carefully built.
It can't just be a two-pack. It has to be a lesbian two-pack. Disgusting.

That is the crudest way to market this set. Look, everyone! Lesbians! Gay couple! First ever, buy now! I see your point. I suppose Cinequest wanted to emphasize the fact that it's a historic moment in this industry to be coming out (sorry, no pun intended) with the first openly-gay/lesbian action figure set. It's too bad it was phrased that way in the opening of the press release - makes it seem a bit sensationalistic. That said, I'm still thrilled that this set is coming out - I'm a huge Willow/Tara fan and I don't know if this set would have even been produced without the involvement of Cinequest. And for that, I will overlook the way it's being marketed. And I just have to say - that pic of Willow/Tara/MKF is absolutely adorable!

I am going mad or did someone mention a while back that Tara & Willow would be holding hands ? The image doesn't seem to have new hand sculpts

The image doesn't seem to have new hand sculpts I think the original plan was to have them packagedholding hands. They could just sort of overlap them to get the look of it... guess we wait and see what the final version does.

Is tara taller than willow? Alyson is 5'3" and Amber is 5'4" - So in answer to your question: Yes.

Wow that blue jacket is pretty ugly. Unless the 2-pack Willow is something really special, I'll be canceling my Cinequest order. Good thing for Cinequest that Willow is an amazing looking figure!

I am reading a lot of hate on this Tara, and I gotta admit it's got nothin on "Hush" tara or that amazing, impossible-to-own "triangle" Tara; but I think she dominates the wide-realease tara. Her colors and outfit are just more chic and stylish than the "I'm-sheletered-in-my-flower-dress" tara. I think she's 3rd out of the four ("triangle", of couse, being 1st)
Plus, at the very least she's worth picking up just to get miss kitty and that amazing Willow. Frankly, I am either going to pitch my tara on Ebay for 10 bucks or customize it. I am getting the HUSH one also, so this one was never a big enticer for me, but if I gotta take some of the mediocre with the great, I'll do it.

Frankly, I am either going to pitch my tara on Ebay for 10 bucks or customize it. It's the opposite for me. For Willow being my least favorite of the major Buffy characters, I sure have a whole lotta Willow on my action figures shelf right now. The pictures on this one look awesome, but I think a huge part of that (for me, at least) is the hand-painted face. I know she's going to come out of the factory with the same slightly weird look all the others have. I wish we were being offered a smiling Tara (because to me this expression isn't quintessential Tara -- smiling and being introverted are not mutually exclusive), but I'm thrilled that we're getting Tara at all. (And hoping we get a different, all-DST version in the future.) After adding up all the factors (including price and that weird hemline on Hush Tara), this is my favorite of the bunch. I'm hoping to snag her in Suncoast.

Any word on packaging?

Post by CMK1887 on Oct 9, 2004 19:57:05 GMT -5
Well...here's what we know: - The set is going to be on a blister card.
- The plastic bubble is going to be in the shape of a heart.
- Most likely, in the upper right section of the blister card, there will be pictures of both Willow and Tara.
There are no visuals to view at the moment...none have been released. As soon as there are, I'm sure they will be posted. -CMK
