The figure pictures are up for viewing and they are taking pre-orders for the convention and the wait list is up for a lottery raffle to pick a limited amount of people to be put on the wait list to get a figure if your not attending the con.

He looks great, the vamp face is a little off but I love the leather pants and the blood stains on the t-shirt. The chains and the rats are a good idea, Thanks BloodyHell for telling us and thanks Floobo for putting up the pictures!  |

I think it looks awesome in the boxed photo but especially this one:  The other two photos look a little off, but it's hard to put a finger on why exactly. Sideshow's Buffy line is the main thing I'm collecting at the moment so I'm definitely going to try and get this one... |

The teeth look really weird. Theres something about the Sideshow dolls that just don't excite me. Oh well, at least I don't spend as much.

I like the figure, but not Sideshow's shitting on the fans with this one.
This should have been offered as a website exclusive, and NOT at a con. The con one could have had different accessories.
I am very disappointed with this. 1,000 pieces?
$300 prices here they come...

I had no idea they were even going to make a vamp angel...

It looks like it's not as extreme in the packaged photo, but it's hard to know for sure. |

He really doesn't excite me that much. I especially dislike the teeth! Oh well, at least I can save up more money for the many figures coming in this series! |

I think he looks pretty cool...if only they'd sort out the teeth! They look like baby teeth! I mean the shape of Vampire teeth is not that hard to capture  I wonder if Forbidden Planet will get any in |

I've never paid particular attention to it, but on the show teeth-wise the only thing that changes is the fangs coming out. Isn't it? I'm quite certain it is. Regardless, the figure still looks very good and among other things I assume you will be able to swap the costume to regular Angel if you so desire... Good luck to everyone with the lottery! . |

Meh. They can keep it.
I don't think it looks that great. In fact, it looks terrible.
Yeah, I know it's a prototype, but I'm still not even going to try and get one.

I think the problem is that they just went ahead and used a generic body, and it's too skinny for David...

i have to say im not a big fan of the face, its just not that pleasing, sure I'll buy it, but I do hope they change the face. It just doesnt look like angel, maybe its to fat, i just cant put my finger on it.

The buffy and Angel dental appliances were fitted with a full front row of sharpe edged teeth. Have a look next time you see a publicity photo of either Spike or Angel in vamp face. The only problem I have with this dolls teeth are they are rather blunt and a bit clumsy looking. Also they could have opened the mouth a little more to show his fangs. Whats the point of a Vamp Angel if he has no fangs to speak of? Especially as he is so limited an edition. The costume I like very much especially the T shirt. Pity most of us will never get to own it! |

Thanks . I guess I deserved the "err no" comment. But, as I mentioned, it's not something I ever really thought about. The thing I most notice whenever someone's in vamp-mode is the change in the facial structure itself. |
