Long time no post! Although I reviewed a couple Buffy items recently, I suspect I forgot to mention them. Such is a feeble mind. My review tonight covers the two pack that's exclusive to Cinequest.com and the Musicland family of stores - Together Forever Willow and Tara! This is the first time I've reviewed this particular sculpt in any version, so while these are really repaints, I haven't talked about them before. Tara wasn't quite as good as I'd hoped, but Willow surpassed my expectations. You can find it at the usual: www.mwctoys.com Hopefully your shopping is going smooth! Thanks for reading, Michael MWC

As always, great review...couldnt find it on the front page but after digging through the archives, I got it.
One tiny problem though...the Willow figure DOES have wrist articulation...it might seem like the figure will break if you move the hands, but all of my willow figures had strong wrist joints.

Hmmm - really? I'll have to give it a try, and hopefully not break anything!

EDIT - voila - it worked! She does have wrists...I've added that info to the review.

Very nice review. I enjoyed it a lot. One little other thing I noticed...the circle on the base isn't from Hush, but is from Who Are You?. Just a minor detail, though. Again, excellent review. -CMK

The interesting fact about Willow figure it is actually the power, while this Willow is from the early season four when she wasn't so powerful, season five willow is for that season when she was powerful, but of course i will prefer season five in a long dress or skirt. Anyway i think both are based in this picture

Best part of the review: "It's like you'll be a silent partner!"

Great reveiw! However Tara does not have neck articulation. She does, you just can't move her head much because of her hair.

Excellent review! Though a bit kinder than I would be. The Tara is a repaint and it shows badly with the sudden paint change between shirt and skirt... there's no sculpt there to support it. The sets I saw all had minor paint mistakes too, a small brushstroke of coat color on the shirt, that sort of thing. Still it's the best smiley Willow ever, and a nice set overall.
