PF ANGEL IN 3-5 DAYS IN US WAREHOUSE

[buffyfannumerouno]

I can't believe that the day is almost here. I am happy that he is coming out although I am sad because this will be the last Sideshow figure maybe forever.

Here is the email that I got:

Dear Valued Collector,

Mumma Mia!
MY mums not going to be happy. I used her credit card and told her it wouldnt be charged till December. Oh Well lol
Does anyone know if I can redeem a Gift Certificate as part of my payment on this figure?

I've asked that before and they didn't even reply. I think if an item is not in the "approved" list to use the gift card for.. you can't use it. It stinks because I have a small one.. $10 and I can't even use it toward shipping!!

Oh lord knows how I'm going to be able to scrap the money together now to get this! I swore I wouldn't, but I'm looking at re-working this as a bit of a challenge.

Bloody expensive 'challenge' though! ;D

[buffyfannumerouno]

I just got this email yesterday and I can't wait to get it.

I made an arrangement with someone from Customer Service to pay by Money Order and just sent it out today so I hope that they don't cancel my order. Although according to her they won't, I kept the email just in case they try and cancel my order. I can't believe that this will be the last Sideshow figure ever made unless the future changes. I just wish that they would've decided to make Premium Figures of Faith and Willow to make up for the botched up regular figures that we got of them. I got the exclusive Angel so he will look great next to the Buffy, Buffy Variant and Spike Exclusive that I already have. The only good part of Sideshow cancelling thier figure lines is that I can save some extra money for whatever Diamond comes out with.

[BlackOps]

I can't believe this statue is coming so soon. I wasn't planning on getting charged for it until December or January. Thankfully I've got the room on my credit card for it now, but I was hoping to save up the money to be able to buy it outright, instead of charging it. Oh well, it'll even-up my Sideshow display (since right now I've got the 2 Buffys and only the 1 Spike).

[willowswarlok]

OMG, i cant wait for this
i only have one glass display cabinet with Spike in it. And now, i have Angel and Buffy coming soon. Need a plan of action lol

[BlackOps]

I just got my shipping notice from Sideshow. Now, it's just a matter of waiting a week. Why can't ground shipping be faster?!

[buffyfannumerouno]

I agree about Ground Shipping, I also think that it takes too long. They won't ship mine of course until they recieve the payment and since I just sent it Saturday, I won't get mine for another week.

[Browncoat]

Angel arrived yesterday. He's ok. If he didn't have his vamp head, i wouldn't be too impressed. I still hate the old grandad stance, his human head is wrinkly and has a vacant expression. The vamp head totally saves this from sucking.

Sorry i can't post pics as my internet isn't working.

The side on view in the last pic looks really good

[slayerverse98]

Thanks for posing the pics

[Girl Power]

Oh, he looks awesome! I love him. You must be so happy!

Thanks for posting the pics!

[bagofknives]

I wish I could afford these! Grrr!!!

[Missa]

I've had mine for awhile now. Thankfully I got the exclusive version. I think I like the vampire head better than the normal face. Although I switch it up depending on what mood I'm in. He's human faced right now.

Like everyone else I wish they hadn't gone with season 5 type Angel, which is a weird choice. But hey I love him. He has yet to meet my PF Buffys though.
