Looking really cool! I just hope he comes with a second pair of hands that can hold stuff.

I wasn't too thrilled when DST announced more Spike figures but these guys look better than the MAC figures. I'll definate get all of them.

I'm glad that a new Spike came out that you can pose. I didn't get a chance to pick up the Buffy line Spike, so this is really cool. The only thing that I think looks a little strange is the arm articulation. I think the bare arm joints don't look too good, and the a shirt over it, like "Beneath You" Spike, looks better. I feel the same way about basic Anya as well. It's still a great figure though with an amazing likeness.

Blimy, I didn't notice that. Hmmmm thats not so good. As to the rest of it, well the likeness seems spot on ,and have you looked at the detail in how the jeans fold on the leg, and the boots? Very well done. A must have!

This is my favourite Spike figure, I would have prefered Vamp Spikes head on top but I think this head has great likeness to JM unlike that crap MAC gave us!!

What is going on with the elbows . They seem to low to me. Anyhow, just a minor thing. Otherwise another EXCELLENT Spike figure. Maybe a bit too chubby for JM, ut they have got the coolness of Spike to a T. Simply superb Just noticed .. they have even got JMs ears right !!

Woah! Look how much the pins in his legs stick out! Things like that are obviously not going to be part of the final figure.

I love this guy. I think that hes my favorite non-episode specific figure. The likeness is just wonderful. Of course the joints will be shortened and rounded for the final figure... Thats simply a prototype, anything is possible for the finals. What I love about the black denim jeans on these Spikes is that the lil studs around the pockets are actually painted a copper color! Lil details like that plus articulation make me veyr happy indeed! ....Now about those hands....

I think the Spike's heads (especially this one) look a little wide. Do you see what I'm sayin? His lower jaw isn't as small and thin as James' is.

I don't think the face is proportioned correctly to his body. His head looks small. It's probably just the expression, but his face is very pinched. His lower face needs to be longer.
Also, he looks fat. Spike had a flat chest (as we saw every single week). His shirt is folding and pulling from areas that shouldn't be there, look right in the middle of his chest.
When I get this figure, I'm planning on switching the heads with Vampire Spike to make a non-fat Spike figure. Vamp Spike would look cooler without the jacket anyway.

I like this figure, for the first time I like the normal figure better than the exclusives.
About the clothes, in ANGEL Spike comes back in the same clothes he was wearing in Chosen, so it is both a Chosen figure and a ANGEL season 5 figure.
