Buffy Block Figures - Series 1

[Lior Knight]

According to The Toy Depot:

Here is a little info on the next NOT so BIG thing from Palisades Toys and Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Buffy Block Figures – Series 1
Palisades Toys is proud to present its first series of Block figures, based on the popular TV Show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Based on specific characters from the first season of Buffy, Palisades new block figures come with a number of fantastic features. First, each figure will come with no fewer than five (that’s right, FIVE) accessories, including a tombstone so that you can build Sunnydale cemetery as you collect the whole series. Plus, each figure will come with additional parts to enable you to "transform" your block figure into a new version of the character.


Series 1 includes:

Buffy – The chosen one herself, as she appeared in Season 1! Create either Vamp-Fighting Buffy OR build Fashion Plate Buffy! Her accessories include a black leather jacket, pool cue, stake and a tombstone.

Giles – Buffy’s trusted Watcher, as he appeared in Season 1 of the show. Create either Watcher Giles OR build Slayer-Training Giles! Other accessories include 2 quarterstaffs, the Vampyr book, and a tombstone.

Willow – The loveable, brainy member of the Scooby gang, as she appeared in Season 1! Create either Classic Willow OR build Opera Nightmare Willow! Other accessories include a backpack, a desktop PC, and a tombstone.

Xander – Buffy’s goofball pal, as he appeared in Season 1! Create either Classic Xander OR build Vamp-Hunting Xander! His accessories include a backpack, his skateboard, a cross, a flashlight 2 books, 2 stakes, and a tombstone.

Darla - The first vampire to appear in the series, who also happens to have sired the dark and mysterious vampire known as Angel. Create either Human-Faced Darla OR build Vampire Darla! Other accessories include a candelabrum, 2 books, 2 handguns, and a tombstone

The Master – The “Big Bad” from Season 1! Create either The Master in his ‘Classic’ Undead State OR build The Dead Master (Skeleton Version) impaled on the plank that Buffy threw him on! Other accessories include a candelabrum, The Anointed One, the wood plank, and a tombstone.

We will have more information as soon as it is available, we hope to have pictures later this week.

Expected to be shipping Late Summer / Fall

Hmm, I'd say I'm more interested in them already. I like the whole cemetary building thing and being able to create different versions of the characters. It all sounds very Lego-y.

Can't wait to see the pictures... and so soon too.

[Moe]

they acctually sound kinda, cool! can't wait ti see the pics

[VampSpike]

They sound cool...im satisfied

[crayfish]

They sound great...can't tell if they will be individual yet or 2 packs. Theonly thing I hate is that Angel nor Spike are included inthe first series...but I guess I can understand about Spike (even thoguh he is the next most wanted one after Angel). I also like the ability to change out the faces...this was one of the neatest features about the Mary Jane Lego piece inthe SPider-man movie line...she had smile on one side and fear on the other and by sliding the hair around you could cover one face up and expose the other face...whcih is what they may do here...or I don't know....the whole thing sounds cool and it ends our debate on who will be in series one.

[Raven]

Wow now I'm intriqued. I like the idea of the tomstones and being able to change the characters.
Want now!

[Becky]

Ooh! I can't wait!

[abcfan]

i think im deffo gonna have to have these

[JusticeDemon]

These sound great! And the best part is.... they should be cheap!!!

[BuffyFanOne]

i am so excited for these! i need a job so i can afford them! i like the idea of 2 versions for all of the characters. darla was a nice suprise, as well as the anointed one as an excessory! i cant waite for fashion plate buffy!

[Hostile47]

These sound great. I am glad they are doing each series by season.

[Faithfan]

Cool stuff!! I love mini block figures. I am suprised Angel is not in the first series.

[Alyrenee]

That lineup is great. I am surprised that Angel isn't in the first lineup....but maybe they need him to anchor the series two block figures. Spike wasn't in season one so it makes perfect sense that he's not in it.

I bet series two will be:

Angel, Spike, Drusilla, Oz, Cordelia, Judge

I love the built in variant idea. How cool. And the tombsotne s adding up to one big cemetary sounds great. Can't wait for these! they should be fun to customize too.

[Dawn]

Imagine how cool the First would be with loads of differnt heads, i hope they have a Buffy for each line, then we could have a Buffy as she grows up. I can't wait for series 5, im guessing that must have a Dawn. How many lines are there normally in a year with minimate thingys, i know you can't tell with the Buffy ones, but just wondering.

[CMK1887]

Sounds like a very good line-up. I'm hoping they don't cost that much, because they sound like something I would like to buy.

[werewolf]

Those are gonna be so tight, Can't wait for pictures!

[sprocket]

they sound really cool. I want all of them already! I hope they aren't too expensive, but they should be small right? so they wouldn't be to expensive to ship overseas....

[Dave the Vampire Slayer]

These sound really cool! I'm excited .

[BuffyFanOne]

is this the same company that makes the small pulp fiction figures? thay are friggen expensive! but they come in 4 packs! so i guess 20$ for 4 of the is not too outragious!

the mayor-box of gavrok
anya-necklace, demon face
