Does the bottom of the base open? It looks like it may open to store things. I too don't get why, if they're releasing Spike on both Buffy and Angel cards, why not put the Buffy related accessories with the Buffy carded figures, and Angel accessories with Angel carded Spikes? Maybe now that JusticeDemon is on the job, he can straighten these people out. Get well soon, if you're reading this JD.

Yeah I never understood why the vamp varients have long fingernails either. This figure has them too. They're looking great although some accessories are missing. I hope they don't get scrapped. Maybe the amulet is being held back for a "Chosen", human faced, coat wearing Spike. That kitten looks awful! They should just repaint miss kitty fantastico like tabby or something. Vamp Spike's axe isn't the one from "Forever". It's the one Xander uses in "Entropy" and "Showtime" (Maybe they should've given it to Xander )

Hmmmm...
I really wish they would have chosen to do something a little different with each of the bases. With candles/without. Different colored candles. A statue of Mary. I don't know just little differences coul have been cool. I mean, they look great, but they're all exactly identical. You could build a "church playset" if you're getting them all (which I am).
And I thought one came with a blanket. Oh well, I'm sure they're still gonna be amazing.

You know, the one that the amulet was mailed in to Angel for the first episode of Season 5? Seriously though, wouldn't that be an awesome variant? A translucent Spike from "Conviction" with th amulet? Without the envelope though, I think anyone could make one of those out of paper

I think they're all looking really good... love FFL Spike's expression! Though I wonder why Just Rewards Spike doesn't have the goblet... of all the figure/accessories pairings, that one seemed like the most obvious and stupid not to do. And is the amulet really gone? Because we need that! Hm, good Ask Diamond questions.

The base looks different. I thought the base was grass with a broken gate. Are the Darlas coming w/ different bases?

Darla is looking good with that base. Where is it meant to be from (Which Eppy?)

Hmm maybe the bases for Darla aren't episode specific...it doesn't look very stand-outish. Just yer average, run of the mill grassy graveyard-looking base thing.

they do look really impressive! i'm glad to see a vampire that hasnt been suntanning like most of the vampire figures seem to turn out. hopefully he'll stay this way. his jaw is still too wide, but i dont expect them to change that. very cool.

After seeing these pics, at first i felt a bit disappointed that the figures weren't going to stand on their bases. But after a second viewing, it looks like the figures will be able to stand perfectly (thank you Vampire Angel) & won't need the support of a foot peg. Of course, appearances can be deceiving......but the figures look good to me

Hmm, I liked the gate better. Maybe regular Darla and Vamp Darla come with the gate and the hellmouth ones come with that.
