I'm gonna pop into FP tomorrow and pick up 'The House Always Wins' Lorne. He is amazing! I may treat myself to a Wes as well but I'm still trying to catch up on The Tara/Anya and Spike/Darla variants that I missed.

I got some of my Wesley and Lorne figures today, at least the ones that Time and Space Toys has so far. I love them. I can't wait for the Angel and Fred figures to come out to have more figures from Angel. Still hoping that they next Angel line consists of Cordelia and Harmony. That would be awesome, with figures of them from Buffy and Angel.

This is so bogus. My comic shop -still- only has in BG Wes and the Deluxes, and whenever I stop in and ask about the other Wesleys and Lornes, the only answer I get is that they 'don't know' when they're supposed to be in. Talk about customer service!
All I know is, somebody will die if I don't get a NPLPG Lorne.

Okay, why dosn't the Wesley back have Lorne pictures on it?
I opened up BG Wesley, and um... his head is tilted... down. It looks odd. The peg on his stand is to long for the hole in his foot and his hands are to large to get a grip on the cross or breif case. The legs are sticky, and hard to move.

I got my first figure from the Lorne/Wes wave, BAD GIRLS Wesley. DST really did a great job on good ol Wesley Windham Price. The face sculpt is dead-on and I like the library floor, except the white tile seams run across the red carpet for some reason and it looks weird.
I do hope when they do Giles that they do one head sculpt with his glasses on and one without them. The removable glasses on Wes only look OK form a distance.
Thank you DST for such a great figure!

Well I still haven't found any of the Lorne or Wesley figures. Both comic shops in my town only have Faith and Buffy deluxe figures. I am dying to get my hands on Lorne and Wesley!

I went down to my local FP today and managed to pick up a good load of my Wes and Lornes. I got Judgement Lorne, The House Always Wins Lorne, S4 Wes and BG Wes. They were all sold out of NPLPG Lorne. I love them all, my favourites are S4 Wes and THAW Lorne.

After a day of looking over Wesley and poseing him I noticed I didn't take his glasses out of the case...
He looks stupid with the glasses... I don't know why they didn't mold them on, or have it so they could fit behind his ears.

Wait, THAW Lorne is available in stores abroad???
I thought he was a Chicago Wizard World Exclusive.
Weird.
Well, I'm glad at least someone can get him at a store. Hopefully, that will keep the ebay prices down. He looks like a great figure.
I agree that they should do a mould of Giles with and without glasses. i think that figures that small are hard to make glasses for that look right.

For anyone who has both Season 4 Wes and R.O.F Wes, could they tell me which is better as I only want one of the 'Regular' looking Wesleys and I'm having trouble deciding which. Thanks!

I would say Season 4 Wes was the better, of the two simply because it is specific and details what Wes looked like for the rest of Ats. I know ROF is episode specific but the blue t-shirt is just looks SO wrong to me.

i had the same problem and i decided to go for season 4 wesley, the shirt looks better then the t and he comes with angel's soul in a jar and the axe he used to decapitate lyla (with blood stains to boot). with ROF, u get the largest crossbow to date and two handguns.

My 4 Lb. package from Time & Space Toys arrived yesterday and instead of the 4 in stock Deluxe figures I thought it was going to be, it turned out to be the Wesley/Lorne/Lorne 3 figure set! NPLGP Lorne has a big bloodred wart on the right side of his nose. Is that suppose to be there?He looks like a witch! I was also a little dissappointed with the quality of the shipping this time. It is usually so good. They were all 3 laying sideways with some paper around them repacked into a Buffy PALZ case box. It was all dented to hell & back and all three figures had minor damage to the corners, but I was glad to get them for I have been waiting for them for years!

My opinion... ROF is better than the other one.

I got NPLPG Lorne and he's great! I love the stage. I hate how his head looks down but it's great with the mic. Go buy him!

I'm just going to stick this in here, rather then start a new thread.
I'm guessing people will be making wedding Alyson and Alexis now that Wesley has been released?
Also, just a question... Is Judgment Lorne the only regulare? Since, the other two are very hard to fine and it's really bugging me.

Is Judgment Lorne the only regulare? Since, the other two are very hard to fine and it's really bugging me. Yep, Judgement Lorne is the only regular. There will be one NPLPG Lorne in every case of Season Four Wesleys and Judgement Lornes (There are 4 Wesleys, 3 Judgment Lornes and 1 NPLPG Lorne in every case). Vegas Lorne is an exclusive, which means unless you live in somewhere like the UK where shops get all of the exclusives in large numbers then it means you will have to hunt around on online stores. Hope that helped!

I love these figures! By far my favorite wave !
Wesley is perfect, from the awesome base, to the perfect attire, superb sculpting, and overall great accessories. His glasses are a little funky, but I prefer him with without them. I also love that he has his throat scar. This is the figure I have been waiting for since the Angel series debut, and I am so happy we didn't receive the original MAC sculpt.
Lorne has a beautiful base, fun accessories and a great sculpt. The only probelm with him is his season 3 Cordy syndrome. I plan to boil and pop his head, sand down part of his back head, and allow it to move back farther. Lorne is very confident, he shouldn't be looking at the ground.

My take on Lorne's head is that when he's standing on the stage with the microphone, it'll give the effect that he's looking down into the audience.
But, I don't own him yet, so I'm not sure how severe the head tilt is or if it even resembles the situation I've described.
