I know, isn't it sad. At least we got giles, i would've been so peeved if they had cancelled the line before he was made.
I already have a space waiting for him in my cabinet.

I can't wait to get mine and add him to my collection, he will complete the original 4 member Scooby Gang. It's too bad that they didn't make a Buffy based Cordelia figure. It is a shame that they cancelled the line. I really wanted so many more figures.

I got the same email and I can't wait to get him as he will be the last 12" figure at least for now let's hope that there are more to come later in the future.

I just got a UPS tracking number for Giles and he is due for arrival at my house next Tuesday. I can't wait to add him to my collection, I just hope that he looks really good seeing as he is the last 12" Buffyverse Figure.

I just got my shipping notice for Giles. I'm so excited! Of course, I'm also running out of room for Sideshow figures. I guess that's one good thing about the line ending -- I don't have to buy more shelves.

Got him a couple days ago, but couldn't take pictures until tonight... Sideshow GilesI think he looks pretty good. His glasses actually stay on, and look better than any glasses I've seen on a 6-inch figure (the scale definitely helps). |
