Hopefully he'll be up for preorder mid week. Don't forget - if you'd like you help BtVSFigs and pre-order this 12" Xander figure, just click the rotating banner in the Sideshow Info Center, head over to the figure's ordering page, and purchase it from Sideshow's website! -CMK

I like him but I'm not sure whether I will get him. I'll just have to wait and see what he looks like in the pack.

I missed something.
I thought they announced Oz, Nightmares Buffy and Origins Angel as the last and only releases left this year?

I missed something. I thought they announced Oz, Nightmares Buffy and Origins Angel as the last and only releases left this year? I don't think so, we had 6 figure in 2004 buffy angel spike faith vamp angel (con exclusive) master plus 4 annouced figure for beggining of 2005 vamp willow (or was she released in 2004) willow prophecy girl buffy vamp spike now for 2005 we got der kindestod origin angel oz vamp buffy xander probably a con exclusive, (vamp xander?) and I,m sure they will released more figure this year so I'm hoping for a giles and cordelia for late 2005 followed by a new buffy, kendra, jenny for early 06 ;D

Okay, so if the picture of Xander that is coming looks like that, what will the actual figure we get look like?
My guess:
Take away the 5 o'clock shadow, aswell as the cool expresion on his face... Make his clothes a little more bigger... Then we are left with a totally plain and boring male figure that looks nothing like Xander!!!! Is that what you think we will get? U know, like the willow???
Hopefully after all the emails sideshow gets of our dissappointments, they will get a GRIP!!!!

I think this has got to be the best sideshow figure yet-he looks fantastic! Wonder what the exclusive will be?

Time & Space Toys has him up for preorder on their collector's club for $31.99. It says that he"ll be available 3rd quarter. I"ll wait to see if Sideshow has an exclusive version or not if not then I"ll just order it from Time & Space Toys.

Thats a good preview picture, but whether or not the actual figure will look so good is another matter all together

I really hope they do make a Vampire Xander sideshow figure after the regualr Xander is made. I would totally buy that I love Vampire Xander. Then they would have all the main characters in a vampire version available. They also need to make an alternative Oz and Oz as Werewolf oz though that would be cool you see it enough in the 6" version. What they really need to do is make the normal Xander then the Normal Giles 12" figures next. Though personally I don't really want them to make a sideshow giles since I have a custom 12" giles already. I doubt that I will like the sideshow giles more then the custom one I have. I perfer the Angel custom 12" I have to the Angel sideshow I have. The custom Angel I have looks alot more like Angel in Buffy season 1. The Sideshow Angel I have looks like Craig Sheffer who plays Keith Scott on one tree hill Or I guess Angel the season 5 of Angel. Does anyone else think the Sideshow Angel looks like Craig Sheffer from one tree hill? ;D

Does anyone else think the Sideshow Angel looks like Craig Sheffer from one tree hill? ;D I didn't think that...until now. Now I don't think I'll ever be able to get that out of my head!

I don't watch One Tree Hill so I don't know who he is so Angel looks like Angel to me. But some guy on another board said that he thinks Xander's eyes look like a "certain shrub in the White House" and I am trying to get that vision out of my head!
I also would like a Vampire Xander and a Werewolf Oz (transitioning into a werewolf) and I can't wait until they do a Giles figure!! I'd love a regular Giles all stiff and proper and then I'd love a Ripper version (maybe Giles from Band Candy with Joyce too!!).

Forbidden Planet have just put Xander up for pre-order (before Sideshow!?) and it says it's due out in December 2005. FP have also listed Vamp Buffy, Origins Angel and Der Kindestod. In the item descriptions, it says they have the exclusive accessory. Has FP managed to get some exclusives, or are they just using that description for the regular one? 'Cause I thought you could only get the exclusive accessory direct from Sideshow's site.

Hmm, I thought they all were always offered by Sideshow first. I wonder if Sideshow would be upset that Xander is already being pre-sold before they've officially offered it themselves.
As for the accessories for the exclusives being included, I'm guessing they just did copy the description from Sideshow. But I'd be pissed if I bought one of the figures from there and it said it was an exclusive and it wasn't.

The exclusive comes with a Sunnydale Yearbook. Xander is being done by the same artist that did the Willow figures. I'm trying to give the sculptor the benefit of the doubt though because I honestly think they screwed up in the manufacturing process for Willow because the prototype sculpt look really good.
