*Screams like a scared little Girl*
Good God thats ugly. I'm just so glad I've seen the new deluxe figures and willow bust, 'cause they sure make up for this monstrosity.
DST, I love ya, but something I don't understand.... [Insert Vomiting Smiley]

loooool. Is it a joke ? What a stupid idea, please tell me it's a joke ! In the episode, Puppet Angel was cute but the product sold by diamond was really different and ugly. And now they made "a never was" Puppet Spike and it's even more ugly. It's Puppet Angel with Barbie hair ! Please tell me it's a joke because if they want to make money with this horrible product, they will receive a big : No, thanks but no, I'm not a stupid collector".

I know you said to wait for more pictures but that doesn't change that this pupper never existed in the show. Angel was great because he was a puppet but Spike being made into a puppet just doesn't make any sense. A better picture won't change the fact that it's Spike as a puppet. Sorry but this just goes to confirm to me that Diamond thinks it's collectors are stupid.

It's funny to remember back when the first Puppet Angel debuted. Everybody hated it and said they'd never buy it... Aren't those first ones still hundreds of dollars on eBay?

Isn't this joke about 3 and a half months late... Is it April Fool's Day again? This has got to be a joke! I am often accused of being a "DST cheerleader", because I often think that they can do no wrong, however, this is the most ridiculous thing they have done to date. What the f*ck where they thinking? There was a reason to produce a puppet Angel. He turned into a precious puppet on the show and because of that the puppet made sense. This is what I call "Jumping the shark". Spike was NEVER a f*cking puppet, come on DSt give me a break. Are you desperate for things to produce? What about that plush stake I've been waiting for forever? If the Spike puppet was even remotely cute, I might consider it, but that thing is the ugliest thing that DST has ever shown! Sorry, DSt, but I am not with you on this one.

Jd I think it's not just the plush figure people complain about. I mean its a lovely idea to go with puppet angel. But It seems like DST ALWAYS use same parts again and again....

The funny part is that the "Once More With Feeling" Puppet Buffy looks better than the Spike. I might would just buy that, just for the camp factor!

Everybody is a pretty broad generalization. I think he's awesome. The vamp one isn't that great but I still bought him. It's just the concept of a puppet Spike when there was never a puppet Spike on the show is a bit silly.

It's just the concept of a puppet Spike when there was never a puppet Spike on the show is a bit silly. I agree. The difference is that when people were complaining about the Puppet Angel, they were complaining about the look or the "design" of it. The "concept" was brilliant! With the Puppet Spike, the design doesn't matter because the concept is so lame. If the fact that the first Puppet Angel is selling for hundreds on ebay is the reason why DST is making this, why don't they just re-release the first one and call it "Puppet Doyle"? He would make about as much sense as a puppet Spike.

I think the idea of Puppet Spike is a cute thought. Sure, he never existed on the show, but I think there are plenty of people who would be willing to own their own Puppet Spike, assuming he winds up looking like him. That first photo is probably just something thrown together quickly to get the word out, I assume, since JD keeps saying to wait for more pictures before we judge.
If he looks good, I'll get him.

If I can do a resonable job, well so can they. Come on DST pull your finger out! Oh Sue, I was always mildy obsessed with your "Muppet Luv" banner. Why aren't you working for DST? That new puppet is fug. New pictures or no new pictures, this looks to be the worst thing DST has put out so far. And it has some pretty stiff competition, what with those Pylea Cordys and the Summers Family boxset.

I will be so pissed off if they make a Vamp Puppet Angel. This is just reaching way to far for dst's sake. Spike just sucks. OMWF Puppet Buffy is the best thing that has come out that fugly picture. Very Funny Digilee. -John

Oh my fudge! What is that!? Seriously!

Maybe DL can mock-up one of those for us! Yes, please Digilee, do it for us! I need another good laugh today! While you're at it, why don't you throw some red hair and a dress on it so we can see what OMWF Willow would look like! ;D

I am still just so pissed this happened. DST makes this crap but won't make certain other characters. Spike wasn't even a puppet. DST was doing so good until this crap. -John
