Sideshow needs to hurry up and announce more 12" figures. I dont really care much about PF because I cant afford them...so the more time between now and when they release a Faith (hopefully in 2008 when I can afford her) is better.
And the quicker they announce 12" figures, the quicker they will get through the supposed upcoming figures (Wesley, Darla, Spike, Buffy) and get to some characters that I actually care about. I will buy all of those 4 but I want Tara, Anya, Dawn, Fred, etc.

I agree that we need more 12" Buffy & Angel figures. Sideshow are shooting themselves in the foot with the Star Wars license, so they need to slow it down and concentrate on the other licenses they have. It is obvious from D'Hoffryn that the limited edition figures do sell, and he isn't even a popular character.
Come on Sideshow, give us the characters we've been asking for all these years!

I figured that they would've announced another 12" Buffy or Angel figure. Or even a new character for the Premium Format line. I am disapointed that they didn't have more to show us, even if the 12" figures don't come out until later so that those that buy the Premium Format figures could buy those as well, they could've still shown us something. We still need more characters from both Buffy and Angel. I expected to see Wesley, Anya, Tara, Fred, Gunn, or Dawn.
I like this new Premium Format Buffy figure, but the pose is to similar and the outfit isn't accurate as she never had the shirt tucked in. I think that a Season 5 figure with her long wavy hair would've been better, or a Season 2 figure with her lavendar dress and short hair would've been great. I would've loved if they would've announced a Premium Format Angel or Faith figure.

If they release Angel in PF i'm deffinately getting him. I will also buy Faith too. I think the only character i'm missing out on so far is Spike. He looks great and everything but he's not one of my most loved characters. Not only that but if i order him just after ordering Buffy it'll end up leaving me with no money every month!

Question: Does this new PF Buffy figure come with anything other than the stake? Will there be an exclusive version?
Cos, if the answer to both is "no", damn what a rip off!

This one is wonderfull compared to the first one that really had problem with her hair. The clothes could have been better, but i like them though. The face is perfect (really nice idea to put real eyelash !). The only problem that is still there is : the boobs ! Nobody thinks they are too big for SMG ?!?!

Get ready to feel ripped off... there is no exclusive accessory and they couldn't even be bothered to replace the stake with an axe or hunga-munga (sp?)

Who else is bothered with her huge eyebrows? oh Looking at that really changes my mind now. Was the first PF Buffy like that? I don't think it was that thick.

I think too the eyebrows are a bit too big, but as the paint job is really good, and they put real eyelash, it's not that bad.

If anyone is interested Forbidden Planet has this for £199.99 on pre-order.
If you outside of the US and want this, with the taxes and shipping etc, FP works out a little cheaper than Sideshow!

How likely is it that Sideshow will make some changes to her before she ships?

I wrote Sideshow about the top, the pants, and the eyebrows. I encourage others to do the same. How likely is it that Sideshow will make some changes to her before she ships? Depends on the change... tighter pants - could happen thinner eyebrows - could happen different top - highly unlikely different pose - not going to happen I'm just speculating, but the first two changes are obviously easier to make than the last two and thus are more likely in my opinion.

Who else is bothered with her huge eyebrows? That looks way better. Good catch. I made a couple threads about this issue over at sideshowcollectors.com. In this case, a small change makes a BIG difference, and it should be a fairly easy change to make. Write Sideshow about it.
