This is how I have mine, I tried to recreate the stalking scene from Prophecy Girl in his lair. I also used some advice from here and pulled strands of her hair out so they drop down around her face, she looks much better like that.

Here's how I currently have my PG Buffys set up. I've moved them to a book shelf where before I had all my figures on one table top together but they were starting to look too crowded. For my pose The Master is getting ready to take a bite out of Buffy.

I have a set I'm still debating on selling so I've been watching Ebay to see what they are going for. They currently have a couple of sets with the Buffy figure too up for sale if you're interested in checking them out. Here's the links to them: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5965029535&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:ITcgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5964703188&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:ITOne of them doesn't have such a great feedback with like four negatives but the other person has a 100% and he doesn't have any bids yet with only a couple of days left. Oh, thanks for the compliments on the poses! I am constantly fussing with them (well, let's be honest, I'm playing with them!) and re-posing them. I now have long haired Buffy facing Angel looking up with her head tilted and him with his head tilted, arm around her waist like they are getting ready for a kiss! Sigh, I miss the the shows so much!!

Seeing all of these pics really makes me want to get them now! Just a quick question, is there a big dress difference (if any at all) in the Regular's dress to the Exclusive's dress? It said that it was supposed to be more tattered, but I can't really tell in the pictures shown.

The only thing I noticed is that the skirt part of the regular figure's dress seemed a little darker, like it was deliberately dipped in something to make it appear dirty. I got two of each figure and I only noticed this on one of the regular figures. So this could just be my imagination because it is an extreme subtle difference and I may have imagined it because the dress was supposed to be beat up looking. There are no tears or anything in it either.
Maybe they decided against tearing up the regular's dress because not everyone gets both figures and they figured people would want the dress to look nice?

Looks like I really missed the boat on PG Buffy, and from the pics, I'm sorry I did. I wish they hadn't made the leather jacket the exclusive, though, because of course that's the one I really want. *sigh* Guess I'm heading for eBay. Does anyone know what a reasonable price would be for her?

I've seen the exclusive on US ebay starting at $80.

I've seen some starting at a penny and I just saw one sell for about 50 bucks. A lot of the "Buy it nows" are starting at $75 - $80. I'd just find a couple that start at the low end and watch them. Sometimes you can sneak in and get a good deal.
Happy hunting! I hope you can get one at a good deal!
Okay, I know I've already answered this but since then I've gone and taken a closer look at both my figures and my daughters figures and yes, the regular versions dress are a bit dirty looking in the skirt area, especially the back of the skirt. Now, it is very subtle but it is different. It just looks a bit dingier. Definitely no rips in the bodice are but on my daughters it looked like their could be faint scratches but it was so faint that it didn't look like it was deliberate (and my daughter likes to play with her figures so she could've accidentally done that!).

I got my Excl. PG buffy today, and I think she's great! From the way she's packaged, i see why people were worried at first - the hair looks pretty crap. Now just waiting for the regular

Glad you like her! I love mine and think she's great too! And yes, the way she's packaged is done in a very unattractive manner when it's obvious that the hair is meant to be pulled out of the ponytail so they could've done that themselves maybe.

I like her but obviously not everyone does because Sideshow now has the exclusive PG version listed as a second chance sale so there must've been a lot of cancellations and returns on her as well. I wonder if people didn't realize that you could pull out those two sections of hair.

I bought the regular edition (who is finally arriving tomorrow) If I like her, I'll see, then maybe I'll order the exclusive. (But then I guess I would have to order the Master.. )

I waited to post until I bought both versions and now I do. I love both of these figures very much. I got the exclusive version first and as soon as I opened the flap to look at the figure I thought she looked excellent. I think she has a really really good likeness to Sarah and the dress and jacket look great. Her right foot is a bit bent in the box. I keep mine closed so I am not sure if it is supposed to bent that way but it looks like if she is standing on the side of her foot. The beginning of her hairline is a little too high but as I said her face is great. Out of all three Sideshow Buffys so far this one is my favorite. I did not care for GD Buffy too much because her eyes are too pink and she looks like she is terrified.
The regular PG Buffy is really great as well. The different hairstyle is nice. The scratch marks are alright,. They do not really do anything for me but they are alright. FireflyFlanatic mentioned that the skirt is a little dark so I peaked under her dress.... Only to look at her skirt.. thats all I promise!.. hehe... Anyway, the skirt seems to be all crumbled together and it does look a little worn/dark. Is it really supposed to be dark looking??
Basically, I love both of them and so far they are my favorite Buffy (herself) figures from Sideshow. I was thinking, someone mentioned that the heads pop off now and it would be cool to stick the regular head on the exclusive figure. It would be easier to take off the jacket from the exclusive figure and put it on the regular figure but then you would have those nasty scratch marks. I prefer my Buffy to be scratchless..
