I prefer this figure to the S5 willow, it just looks better. I think it's the face.

Yeah, JD, share the pics! You seem to have lots of pictures we don't see. I'm sure you probably have to hold them per DST, but still.
For example, the green shoes OMWF Anya, a different (and much better) shot of Wedding Anya that were all on the BTVS Figs website, and the square picture of Anyanka that is on the main page of this website. I can't figure out where that picture is from because I haven't seen that angle before.
Willow looks alright, I definitely wouldn't buy her as a single. Her eyes are still the wrong color; Alyson Hannigan's eyes are not brown!
And guys, don't get too excited about an improved face. The final figure will probably look exactly like what's already come out. Hopefully, though, they'll be more careful with her mouth and give her the right eye color!

I ordered the two pack the night Cinequest put it on their site. Despite Tara not being my fave, this Willow sure makes up for it. As if I didn't have enough variations of Willow already... not that I'm complaining. Keep those figures rolling off the assembly lines, DST!

Wow, thanks for the pictures Karen.
I am really glad that I ordered this now, I think the paint job on this willow looks really good. I cannot wait to have this in my room.

I think shes really awesome and if she was the one released instead of the S5 Willow... I would have totally bought her... I wish there was a way to trade my Dingoes Willow in for THAT Willow... since im not buying the 2-pack... For me its all about the shirt pattern and the Addidas Superstar 2s....Gotta love the shoes LOL.

I absolutely love her  . Thank you so much for the piccies. The detail on her top is very well done. Her face looks great too. Cannot wait for the Together Forever set to be released as I think this is gonna be one of my favourite DST releases. |

Today, Saturday, one of the representatives at the Cinequest booth told me the reason why 2-Pack Willows face looks so much better then the other Willows is because it is a resculpt.
So there it is folks. It's not just the new paint job that makes this figure (IMHO) so much better looking then the previous Willows.

It looks like they've used the original, larger scale WW Willow body, which has limited articulation, and sculpted a new larger scale head to go with it. Certainly a better sculpt. You can see it in the height of the Tara and Willow figures, standing next to each other in CowboyGuys photos: btvsfigs.proboards35.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=angel2&thread=1090572924&start=30It is possible that they already had the large scale head as a pre-production sample made by Moore and just used it for a quick mock-up display. I wonder whether they will put the larger scale figure into production or just use the ready made, articulated, smaller scale parts (e.g. Dingoes Willow) with a repaint. I suspect the latter. |

Looks fantastic! Willow's face looks like an entirely different sculpt compared to season five and WTW!
