This looks like a great figure! Nice that they gave him a green body too. Love his shoes!! Anyway from what I can see he has a great likeness, as well as good accessories too. I bet he looks better in person as well.

You need to pay a $50 fee to join and then you either get a coupon worth $50 or you can choose whatever the current promotional item is which is always worth $50. There's a link for both "Time & Space Toys" and the "BCC" on the main forum page next to the "Welcome" message.

BCC is great for US customers, but not that good for International customers. If I could give you a advice : don't purchase in their store except if you accept to wait many weeks or some months to see in-stock items shipped to you.

I don't know if anyone here knows, but is Lorne still going be available to folks in the UK via places such as Forbidden Planet etc? I've just looked at their online site and I notice he's been removed.
Does this mean I've missed the boat once again, as I did with D'Hoffyrin?

Many of the sideshows sell out pretty quickly so its always best to preorder as soon as you can. Lorne sold out on the sideshow site so he probably sold out over there too. Your best bet is to order off the BCC or on ebay right now before prices shoot up.

The headsculpt is very nice, but I dont like the paintjob. He could have been a little more detailed. So are the clothes, and I dont really like it that the head and hands have a different color then the body.
But I think its very nice that you lend him your boyfriend.

lol, it's true that this guy looks like Riley. This head could be really good for customizing if finally Sideshow don't produce a Riley figure. Lorne looks so good. Hurry BCC, I want my Cordelia and Lorne !!!!

I was babysitting my friend's 5 year old today and he ran into my bedroom at one point. He saw these two on top of my TV and said, "What are those two guys doing so close together on the couch?"
Well, I didn't think it was my place to introduce homosexuality to someone else's kids. Talking to kids about anything to do with sex kind of freaks me out, so I said, "They're friends!" Then he said, "No, they're not. Why is that guy with the evil guy?"
So I just explained that Lorne's really nice, but just looks evil. Wait, maybe he was talking about Riley.

lol. So is Lorne actually gay? I know he comes across as being gay in character with comments such as "Tall dark and handsome" to Angel

Theres never been a time when Lorne has come right out and said he was gay, but I think its pretty much accepted by all that he is. Or at least bisexual. But with demons, I think its all different, I think Joss once confirmed what Angel and Spike said on the show that the 2 of them had been together at one point...but no one would consider them gay. Its all weird.

I rec'd my SS Lorne and Cordy today from BCC and I love them!! I take my 6" figs out of the package, but I keep my SSs in the box because the boxes are so gorgeous. I hope SS puts out more characters in the Angel line, especially Gunn.

lol. So is Lorne actually gay? I know he comes across as being gay in character with comments such as "Tall dark and handsome" to Angel Well, he definitely seems gay. I mean, he's the essence of the stereotype with the show tunes and the mannerisms and the "Angel cakes" nicknames. Plus, the whole going home to Pylea, where they treated him like a pariah because he wasn't macho and violent like the rest of them, but sparkly and into singing and such. It seems all Jossy metaphorical to me. But early on he made comments, such as that he would go after Cordy if he thought he had a chance with her. They definitely made an official statement about it. I was just playing around, because I think they make a cute couple.

Hallet played him in an ambigous way on purpose, so to assume he's gay is probably wrong. or it could be right But let's remember what his mom looked like, ugh. Since he's a demon from a different dimension, the ideas of gender and sexual orientation may not really apply as we'd assume them. On a related note, I'm putting together my review of him for tomorrow night, and I had a question. What episode is the additional bottle from? I know it's episode specific, but I can't quite put my finger on it...
