An AFX Exclusive! This figure which depicts Angel from the episode where he found himself forced to compete against innocent demons in an underground fighting tournament stands 6” tall and was sculpted by Gentle Giant. This exclusive comes with 16 points of articulation; as well as wooden spear, knife and base. By Diamond Select. Estimated ship date: October 2005 (subject to change without notice) Looks awesome!

FANTASTIC! He is shaping up to be one of my favorites in this wave. Great base too!

He looks awesome. This is a way better picture than the one in toyfare. I'm glad they added the bracelet. The base is freakin' amazing. I hope he has the tattoo on his back.

He look good The base looks much better with the figure on it, too. The shoulders look a little wide, but for all I know it could be 100% accurate. My only nitpicky complaint is the pants. They look odd though; are they using the same pants on all the male figures now? I think I'll either be buying this one or Graduation Day Angel. So far, Ring Angel is winning.

Am I the only one who thinks his shoulders way out of proportion? I think the shoulder joints should’ve been closer to the shirt.

This picture makes the figure look a lot different from the one that was in the magazine. It definitely need some work on the shoulders/upper arms. Cool quaterstaff!

I think he looks great! I do agree his shoulders are wide but for a first photo damn its good. DST will probably fix that 1 tiny problem I mean look at our first photo of Faith and look at her now she looks like a totally different figure! I still hope DST will start including thigh articulation that is my main "nitpick"

the base is plain but effective. I really like the inclusion of the chains ;D The likeness is incredibly good. People have been moaning about it but gentle giant have done a really good job!

torso looks weird..........eh. I like what they've done with the base, though. It's going to be interesting to see how they make the others different.

Something about him from the neck down looks off. He looks a little like a spinning top. Wide on the top, narrow on the bottom. The base is cool but it's just another example of Diamond reusing what they have. I think the bases could be a bit more creative instead of them all being the same with the exception of a few minor changes. It's a cheap way out. Heres what I don't understand, the Marvel legend figures have way more articulation, cooler bases, more details and they only cost about $7.00 in the store. Why, when these figures are $14 can't they have something a little extra special about them?

He looks older and the hair isn't very spiky like in the episode.

I am just not liking these Angel heads/faces. He looks way too old and I don't like the ears. I am glad that they added the bracelets.

I really like this one , If his vest is adjusted he'll be perfect . I love the base , its simple nut not boring as it had the chains . I'm really loving the braclet and the accessories . They looks really cool .

I just don't like the lower body, which I guess makes me unique from most others. It just looks a bit too small, and good lord, are those pleated pants?!

I love him! He's already leaps and bounds better than what we saw in Toyfare.
Considering these figures are still quite a ways off, I'm pretty sure everybody's concerns will be taken care of and these are going to look absolutely amazing by the time they hit the stores.
