Thank you. I can't wait for this Faith figure. I really want to see what the Willow figure looks like. I'm still hoping for a Xander, Vampire Xander and Giles figures to be made. Next year looks to be a very good year with Sideshow continuing thier line, making at least 6-8 more figures next year.

I saw a Spike exclusive sell on eBay recently (the one with the hands). It had been opened and resealed yet this had absolutely no effect on the value, if this is what you're worried about. It's dead easy to repackage them, because they're in the boxes. So even if you don't want to sell it you can still display it and then put it back as if nothing happened. I'm not saying Faith will definitely be the same in terms of 'no effect on value', but I wouldn't be suprised. Personally, I received the Spike exclusive the other day. I only bought one, and have no other Spike. I opened it minutes after receiving it  . I'm very interested to see how Faith turned out in the end... |

I probably will end up opening it, i wasnt going to open Buffy but did as soon as i got her!
Its not really about value, i just collect MIB figures and would like to know that it has never been opened.
I cant wait to see how she turns out either, I think she will be better then she looks in the pictures. Do you know if they have made any changes to her since the promo pictures?

None that I've heard of, unfortunately  . Assuming Faith is the same as the photos, the other figures in the line make up for her. For me, at least. |

I just got an e-mail from Jennifer at Sideshow Toys and she informed me that Faith should start shipping this week. I really can't wait for this figure and the Scythe is going to be awesome to have in 12" figure form.

Apparently some of these figures were sent today! If you receive yours soon, please post impressions. Some people in CA should have theirs tomorrow... The outfit and accessories look great. It will definitely be interesting to see how the head sculpt turned out in the end... |

Mine is supposed to arrive the on the 13th. I think if thats how she looks when I see her in person, I may just take her scythe out and put it with Buffy, and then just display her box. I am really getting dissapointed with Sideshow, they have been doing really lazy paint apps.

Mine has been shipped, its due here on the 16th. I was quite excited untill i saw this picture, she looks really bad in it. At least ill be getting the scythe so it wont be a complete waste of money if i dont like Faith in person.

I got mine today. I think it looks better then the picture above (that's an unflattering angle) but it still doesn't look like Eliza.
