I wish they would have made just one season 4 Wesley without the overshirt, and , for that matter, just one season 5 Spike with the black coat. Possibilities for future 2 packs, boxsets, or con specials are endless.

I went to my comic shop the day they came out and scored a Red Lorne. I was so excited because I've never been able to get the chases so easily (took me ages to find a Hush Tara).
These figures are very nice.

I got a Buffy Wesley at Toronto Trek! Yippeee! The only thing i dont like is how his suit jacket looks so wide on him, kinda makes him look fatter than he was on the show. (also makes it look kinda awkward)

Something I just noticed. You can connect Lorne's bases together side by side and back to back to make as big a stage as you want! I'm going to put 6 stages together and have one big enough for the whole gang!

I'm going to put 6 stages together and have one big enough for the whole gang! That's a cool idea! It could highlight everyone's singing moments: Angel singing "Mandy" Cordy, Wes and Gunn singing "We are the Champions" Fred singing "Crazy" Darla singing "Danny Boy" The only problem is there is no Gunn, but everyone else has already been made into a figure. |

Another observation: The axe that comes with "Just Rewards" vampire Spike, fits perfectly on the bottom rung of the weapons cabinet! I wonder if that was the original axe that was supposed to come with MAC's Wesley?

I got ROF and S4 Wes along with Judgement and Pylea Lorne today in the mail. I gota say that I really liek them. ROFs shirt looks a lot worse tho in BY SPike blue.... I think that I will be putting his hands on my S4 Wes making him the definititve Wesley. I think the glasses tho, look like goggles and look rediculous on his head. I wont be using the.. The crossbow is a far cry from the mass produced MAC ones back in te day, but I really dont see my Wes using it, even tho S4's hand was molded for it. Once he started using firearms he just became badass with them...
The Lornes are pretty sweet themselves. Pylea's accessories are definitely the most fun, buit I love that Judgement has a cellphone. His downside tho is that I dont really like his colors as much as i thought i would and even tho his head is ball jointed, hes stuck lookin downwards unless you turn it left or right. I really like Lorne in the red n yellow... tho if i get bold I will maybe make the red into a blue. I think thatd look nice too. I but all the lights onto one stage base too. ALSO... Plyea's floorboards came off... Is this common cause Judgements cannot... Maybe tis a glue issue, but if not, hell I got myself some extra storage space. Lornes head basket feels almost ceramic, but obviously its not... It reminds me a lot of Palisades Muppet accessories. Overall great buys and worth the wait.

I was shocked to find S4 Wesley, Bad Girls Wesley, pylea Lorne and Judgement Lorne in the local comic/collectables shop today (in New Zealand). I hadn't pre-ordered any yet, so I had to buy all four of them... and they were having a "discount dice" day, and I rolled a 15% discount on my purchase... so I was rather happy with that (and it's my birthday today, so it made the day that much better! new figures! okay, so I'm 29, and want figures for my birthday...lol)
What I wasn't happy with was the fact I wasn't careful opening up Pylea Lorne and getting him out of the bubble. I heard a "snap", and now his removable head is permanently removed...but he does look pretty cool on the shelf - holding the tray with the head on it
So as a warning, the neck peg is quite delicate...be careful removing him.
I love the weapons cabinent, and Lornes Stage bases - I thought I'd like the Wesley figures more, but both Lornes look great on the shelf, with the red and white jackets standing out and looking good.
Lornes Jackets look good, and so does s4 Wesley. I'm disappointed with Bad Girls Wesley though - he'd never be seen dead in such an ill fitting suit...

Just bought my first figure from this wave a couple of hours ago in town. I bought nplpg lorne and I love him  ! I love the base and his accessories, the store I bought him from had season 4 wesley which I was going to buy but then I realized the lorne nplpg came with the wolf, ram and hart books so I had to buy him! |

My ROF Wes, S4/5 Wes, Judgement Lorne and NPLPG Lorne have arrived... I enjoy them all... with ROF Wes being my favorite. The only thing I dislike is how Judgement Lorne's head is so downward... its BtVS Cordy all over again.

Someone said there are 3 versions so Lorne?!?! What is the third?
NPLPG Lorne's head is stable. It won't come off if you hang him upside down, only if you pull it off.
If someone's peg broke, I'll bet you can use a match stick or some other kind of stick to keep the head in place.
I love my NPLPG Lorne. I"m so happy to hear that the stages stick together. I want to put Oz on Lorne's stage playing guitar, with his amp and everything. Plus a few speakers. I love the Wolf, Ram, and Hart books. I think I'm going to paint my Lornes a slightly darker shade of green. The day glo bugs me. But the red suit rocks! And don't get me started on those fabulous spectator shoes. Very cool.
