Great...Oz before Xander or Giles. Heck another Angel and yet another Buffy before them too. What's the deal with the exclusion of these characters?

Origins Angel could mean two different things in my opinion. It could be a real "origin" Angel dressed up all pretty in Victorian style, or it could be "Origin" Angel from Season 5. But that sounds kinda dull, and wouldn't be that much different from the "Becoming" Angel we already have. I hope it's an Angel from the past. I would like that. But I would hope his hair is sculpted...

Yeah I love Buffy but like the 6" companies I would prefer a few more variations instead of just getting different versions of the same character. I was really hoping for a Xander or Cordelia.

well do sideshow have the angel license, i dont think they do but i could eb wrong, if they dont, then it couldnt be angel from the episode origin because that is from ANGEL, so it must be victorian angel, which would be sooooo coool

*starts to cry*

[prophecygirl]

well, i'll definitely get vamp buffy. and possibly oz. i'm not sure yet. knowing me, i'll probably end up buying them all. but definitely buffy.

i really thought it was going to be giles or xander.

[gooball]

FWIW, I think it's much better to think of the announcement as being of 'three of the figures for this year' rather than 'the next three figures' .

[Sammie]

I like the fact that they are making Oz, i might buy that one. (it would look cute with the new Willow, even though i'm a Willow/Tara shipper)
I'm not really interested in Vamp Buffy and Angel though

[Moe]

Seth Green's gonna be happy to have 2 busts, 2 palz and a 12' doll made of him this year. Especially as he hasn't played Oz in like 4, 5 years.

[buffyfannumerouno]

This actually kind of makes me upset that they would release an Oz figure before they would release a Xander or Giles figure, and then to release yet another Angel and another Buffy before Giles and Xander are released.

Hello Sideshow, can't you come out with the main characters before making so many variations of one character. I do love the choices of Buffy and Angel, but to get an Oz when he didn't come until Season 2 and was only there through half of Season 4.

What about Xander, Giles or even Cordelia? They were all more important than Oz and were all there at the beginning in Season 1.

I guess I"ll have to actually wait and see what these figures actually look like. I was thinking the same thing about Origins Angel. He could be dressed from when he was first in Sunnydale and saw Buffy for the first time, if it is a Victorian Angel then they should call it Victorian Angel rather than Origins Angel. It's good that they are making Vampire Buffy because it's nice to get a figure of her that isn't a PALZ figure. I hope that it actually looks like her. Oz, I could really care less about. I"ll probably get him, but they still should have made Xander, Giles and Cordelia before Oz. Their logic makes no sense to me.

[BillyBudd]

Again, I agree with buffyfannumerouno. Xander and Giles are more significant characters than Oz. This announcement is a bit of a letdown.

[BtVSFigs Admin]

They just put out a little article on why they choose the way they do. And I understand where they come from. They need to put in some smaller characters in between the bigger ones. We got Buffy, Angel, Spike, PG Buffy, Vamp Spike, Vamp Angel, Willow and Faith. Now lets give it a few smaller people, Der Kindestod, Master, Oz, etc.

[IdoDoodle]

I'm happy with the choices. I understand the feeling that more critical characters should have come first, but it's not like this is the end of the Sideshow line. Chances are pretty darn good that we'll see a Xander, Giles, etc. We just have to be patient. Excruciating I know, but hopefully Sideshow will make it up to us....

I can't wait to see pictures. I know I'd love to have a 12" Oz figure

I agree 100% its abit stupid its like the world has gone OZ mad!

[VKMax]

It makes sense to me as they seem to be sort of... progressing along the time line of the show.

They seem to be sticking to highschool so I expect going with the general season 3 theme they seem to have going on, that Xander, Anyanka, Cordelia and Giles will be along soon enough.

Plus Seths in the limelight at the moment so it makes sense to market something that people who perhaps didn't watch Buffy or didn't know he was in Buffy, can take notice of.

Buffy as a Vamp. Bit of a newbie here. What episode was that in? Gonna need to go through my DVD's.

Nightmares - Season 1

I'm acutally looking forward to whatever Sideshow puts out, I figure we will get the core Scooby line sooner or later so why fret and fuss about it. I enjoy getting the obscure characters like Der Kindestod and such. And I'm tickled to death to have an Oz to go with my Willow now.
