That is awesome. I'm so glad its official, and good choices for the 2 Anyas. True Anyanka is the same, but now I won't feel bad about cutting one up to customize, and now I'll be able to have a bunny anya and one in street clothes since I didn't feel like buying 2 of them. D'hoffryn is the only real reason I'm buying this. Did it say when its coming out?

D'Hoffryn doesn't even come with his talisman? Or a wedding gift?
He only had two real accessory options, I'm disappointed that neither is being used. Especially the talisman.
It is interesting, though, that the text says D'Hoffryn "debuts" in this box set. He isn't exclusive to it.
I really hope they lighten Anyanka's paint scheme for this release. Anyanka was never that dark in any incarnation. And it would differentiate her from the regular release. I never bought the regular holding out for this set, and I'm glad.
I don't like the paint scheme on Anya. Green is not her color, and I can only think of her wearing green in Buffy vs. Dracula and The Replacement. Purple would look better with those pants. Or even black pants and purple. Or peach with those pants.
When is this coming out?

Awesome, now I don't have to get another Anyanka for customizing I can just cut up the carded one I have. Also, what do they mean by "16 points of articulation" for the figures? "Fear Itself " Anya only has ten... here's hoping D'Hoffryn has loads of movement in the arms and not just two points per arm (shoulder & wrist). Otherwise, they better consider releasing him with more arm articulation later on =\

Meh, I want D'Hoffryn, but I have no desire for a duplicate Anyanka or another Anya, especially in those colors. I hope they release him separately later on.
On a positive note, I love the color scheme for the Darla packaging.

I am just thrilled. I haven't bought Anyanka yet so this is just perfect for me.

Yay! Box set!
Did anybody notice the Angel packaging article and contest?

Yeah! The Angel packaging looks great. The red fits so much better than the teal that MAC had chosen. I entered the contest... had to research the answer to question three as I forgot I entered the number of years ago plus the estimated year, I hope that doesn't make it confusing. Does someone actually check to see that you've answered the questions correctly? I've always wondered. Announcer Voice: "And our winner is, John Smith! Ahhhhh... but wait, he didn't answer question two correctly. Sorrrry, you looooose! Next name in the hat is..."

As I haven't bought any Anyas yet I won't buy Anyanka and will save my money for this set. There is no way I'm missing out on that Dy'hoffron on a bad not however that regular Anya is hideous.

My big question was about the "16 points of articulation" as well. I only count 10 on pants'd Anya (knees, hips, waist, elbow, shoulder, head). I don't have Anyanka yet so not sure about her. But D'Hoffryn, let's face it -- the dude is a robe with arms. At most I see him with head, shoulders, bicep, elbow, and wrist. That's 8, and I don't see any cuts in the elbows and so far DST hasn't given bicep artic to any of the old MAC sculpts.
I really wonder what will be underneath his robe, if anything. If it'll be done more like wedding Anya where there's legs and all or if it'll be more like MAC's Dru. Actually I wonder if he'll have feet at all. Did he have feet on the show? (Like vs. hooves or something.)
This gives me hope that DST may bring out some more of the sculpts/characters that never got made. (Fyarl Giles anyone? Well, okay, he's the only one I really want. And a Riley, but they'd have to do a new head for him anyhow.)

I'm kinda disappointed about this set, i mean its the same anyanka and the green is horrible for anya, i only hope they lighten her hair, cos im still not sure on the brown. D'Hoffryn is great tho.
About the competition, question 3, does it mean the place/country or year?
