My Sideshow Darla review

[michaelcrawford]

Nope, the package I was waiting for STILL hasn't shown up, and by the time it does, it's going to be a whole lot less exciting. But some terrific Sideshow stuff did show up this week, and tonight's review covers their latest addition to the Buffy/Angel 12" series - Vampire Darla!

Now, I suspect a lot of people are going to rag on this sculpt, but it's not nearly that bad. It's not the best, but it's not Faith bad either. Darla won't end up in my top ten Sideshow figures ever produced by any means, but she's a sight better than Faith, Pammy, or Willow.

Odds are pretty good right now that Sunday night will bring another Sideshow review, in the 18" scale this time around...have a great weekend!

Ah, looks good. Another great reveiw (though I wish it had came a few hours early, would have been fun to read during Computer Class^^

I wish I had ordered one, cause I want her so badly now!

Thanks for another great review Michael! You've stated very nicely what I've felt all along - that the sculpt is actually a very good likeness to that particular screen shot used but that it isn't a good representation of Darla. For me, Darla has always had this bad assed attitude with a wicked grin on her face and this is her surprised look from when she first encounters Buffy. Still, after seeing your pictures, I'm very happy to have ordered her. Mine finally shipped out today so I'll have my figures next week.

Thanks for such an awesome review, Michael! It's fair, as always, and provides me with the information I need to decide whether I want to get one.

To me, the vampire face does actually hold a very good likeness to Julie and looks wicked cool. This Sideshow figure may not be the best they've produced by any means, but If I see it for a decent price then I won't hesitate to buy it. This figure is oozing with attitude and I like it!
