OK, I put my confirmations from stores in my datebook for the month they are due to arrive. I see that time and space toy's anya/tara set was due to come out this month. Looking at their Web site, I see the date has been changed to late August/early September. Already with the delays? Anybody have any details on why it's been pushed to late summer and how that affects all the other figures?

There is hope for a july release! I pre-ordered my Willows and charmed figures from forbidden planet and i got mine pretty much before anybody else. Last time to reduce waiting lists they shipped a few cases straight from the factory in china. normal Anya and New Moon Tara will probably come first. They could come anytime.

I really can't wait for August to come to finally have new figures of Anya and Tara. I just hope that I will be able to get 2 of each. 1 to keep in the packaging and 1 to display. These bases are really terrific, and the accessories are really good as well.

buffyfannumerouno, if you don't mind me asking, how do you get enough money to buy 2 of each figure? i've always wondered how people do this. maybe it's cause i haven't got a job that i can't.

Some figures are being pushed back due to the fact that they aren't ready to be released yet. The W/T Two-Pack is the only product whose release date I am sure of...it'll be out in October, like ajmets posted. -CMK

In response to your question. I manage my money very wisely. I work at Toys R Us and come in extra shifts. I also save my money for these figures, so when they are released I have 2 of each. It's all about money management. Since I don't drink, smoke, party, or eat out I have extra money to spend. I also buy DVDs when they come out on their release date and they are on sale so I can use the extra money to save for these figures.

Being as paranoid as i am. I can't help but have nightmares that DST are doing a MAC on us and are falling behind with the release of these figures. I know i have no right too, and DST have done nothing at all to deserve this post, but it seems as if the summer release is all ready slipping away...Sorry to be negative, but we've all been waiting for so long, it'd kill me if they were delayed again.

I don't think you should worry. In no way do I feel like DST would pull a 'MAC' on us. They're just trying to make the figures as great as possibile. A few weeks off schedule isn't that bad for the figures we are getting. I figure that to get these awesome figures, it's gonna take time. I have faith that DST won't delay the figures unless they absolutely have to (and I still don't think they'll have any reason to absolutely have to delay them). -CMK
