Not too crazy for this varient. I think a shirtless version trussed up by the First and craved up by the Bringers would be cooler.

I love this Spike. I think it's my favourite. I am thrilled that DST have tried a different face sculpt - & we have a screaming Spike !!! I am impressed that DST have been adventureous with the Spike wave Hadn't noticed his yellow eyes before. Glad he will be getting nipples !

Hmmm, this is my least fav of all of them, mainly because of the screaming face, and also because this is not what I thought we were going to get when they said that they were going to release a 'shirtless Spike'!
It's okay, but I'm not going to kill myself over trying to get hold of it.

I got to see this one up close in Chicago, and what really blew me away about it was the puffy bruised eye. It's a whole different head sculpt than any of the other figures, and I feel like DST really went the extra mile with it by making that eye all puffy. I guess I don't know what else they could've reused a screaming human Spike head for if it hadn't been that specific, but...still.

I love how his face expresion is the one from when the monster gave him his soul. The burns are wicked cool. And the reason they probaly put the burns instead of the cut's is because when Spike had these bruses and that when he got his soul witch was a major event for Spike.

DIAMOND SELECT TOYS, CINEQUEST.COM TO RELEASE EXCLUSIVE ANGEL: "GRAVE" SPIKE FIGURE Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles, LLC (DST) and CineQuest.com are joining forces to produce an exclusive collectible based on one of the most popular characters from the hit TV shows, Angel and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, with the Angel: "Grave" Spike Action Figure. "Whether he was on Angel or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike has proven to be one of the fans' favorite characters," said CineQuest.com President Mark Del Vecchio. "Depicting a the battered and beloved character as he appeared in the sixth season episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 'Grave,' this figure is sure to be just as popular - if not more so - as our exclusive Hell's Bells Anya and Dark Witch Willow figures from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, both of which were huge hits!" Designed by Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles (who also produced the figures) and Gentle Giant Studios (who also sculpted the figures), and offered exclusively by CineQuest.com, the figure depicts the vampire anti-hero (portrayed by actor James Marsters) shirtless, and comes with blanket, a cross with an altar, poetry book, and a stake. Standing approximately 6" tall, this figure - which comes with 11 points of articulation - is targeted for a late January release. "Collectors have been waiting with bated breath for this action figure," said Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles Marketing and Sales Coordinator Scott Braden. "There's no doubt that this figure is certain to become a can't-miss addition to Angel and Buffy fans' collections."

11 pts of articulation??? I think they are a bit wrong on that... The prototype has 14 noticable joints... What are the other two? Are they ankle joints casue I cant see any more... So the 11 pts must be a mistake...right?....

So the 11 pts must be a mistake...right?.... Grave Spike actually has 16 points of articulation (neck, shoulders, biceps, elbows, wrists, waist, thighs, knees, and mid-calfs). It's probably just a simple mistake. If you look at Just Rewards Spike's press release, it says he is from the S5 episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, when it is supposed to be Angel. Mistakes happen...this is just another one of them. -CMK
