I just got the new Toyfare and after looking at the pics I have to say that all of the Angels (except for Demon Angel) heads are way too small for their bodies

I only like illyria and the vampire angel. the deom 1s okay too, nice idea but not worth buying. the shirtless and ring ones and normal rnt very good.
i dnt really like the idea of shells illyria - a season 5 fred would have been worth it. but they said 1 more new figure for a boxset, so i bet its angel 5, illyria 5 and fred 5 so we will see an updated fred.
i like the bases though, they're nice.

When they say a 'new' figure in the boxset, I think they mean a completly new figure a la D'Hoffryn, and I hope it is.
I think they may do a Wolfram and Hart boxset with Angel in a Suit, a Fred repaint on Shells Illiyria, with removable labcot and a differently sculpted head, and Hamilton/Eve/Harmony/Lyndsey or some1 else.
Or they might do a Pylea boxset with Slave Fred (with removable slave cloths and security neck thing please DST), an Angel repaint, and another figure.
Or a S5 Fred, an Illiyria, with a bad guy who has stuck out in Fred's life (I can't think of anyone!)

I still think a Rain of fire boxset has a chance
ROF Wesley Angel all in black (they have the parts, just a simple repaint) The Beast (how cool would that be!)
I also wouldn't care if nothing was changed to ROF Wes, as I'm considering making a "Shells" Wes custom anyway.

I really like all the figures, i think the vamp angels face is a great likeness to him - also re: bases - how cute is Fred's wee bunny??? Although think it would be a better accessory with Fred rather than Illyria!

Couldn't possibly say enough about how awesome Illyria is. That said (or not said, lol) the Shells Illyria and that mid leg articulation just looks horrible. It's not practical, it won't allow you to position her any differently so it just looks like her leg was cut off at the calf. They need to fix that. I love Fred, Demon Angel and regular Angel but the Vampire Angel and the shirtless Angel.....not so good.

I think the best Angel is the vampire version. The baby and the floor of the hyperion, it's really cool.

Vampire Angel is definitely the best, but baby Connor? that's a little bit too random for my tastes.......I'll sell him in the buy/sell/trade section once it is released.

They just all are wrong to me... All the Angel's have Shrunkin Heads! Shells Ilyria is UGLY! YIKES!!! The monster Angel is not disired to me... And Fred is season 2 Fred! I dont like her like that... I was a season 4 Fred fan!
Illyria however looks amazing... A+ with her!
Sorry DST... I hate bagging the figures, but they just are not doing it for me...

I don't remember which ep it is, but there's this one specific moment where Connor (when he was a baby, obviously) is crying, and Angel tries everything to get him to stop, and finally he vamps out and Connor stops immediately -- I think he might even laugh? It's a really sweet/funny moment -- how Angel is going through the typical stress and frustration and fear of being a brand new parent, and worrying about the whole being-a-vampire thing. So I think baby Connor and bottle are fitting with the vamp Angel. Just my opinion. Though I'm not sure I'll go for the vamp figure, so if you are looking for someone to sell baby Connor to..! ;D

As far as Fred being season 2 Fred, that is Season 3 Fred. Fred was only in the last 3 episodes of season 2 and never had her hair like that or clothes like that. She only wore that slave cloth. It's true I'd rather have seen a Season 4 Fred or even a Season 5 Fred, they didn't make one. You never know they might make a few more Freds as show exclusives, in a 2 pack or in a box set.
As far as Vampire Angel coming with Connor, for one we asked for a baby Connor accesory to come with Darla and instead it came with Angel, secondly, I think that it was a good idea because of that episode where he wouldn't stop crying until Angel went into Vamp mode.
