Hi all, while browsing through some online shops, I stumbled across pictures of all three variants of the Deluxe Buffy and Faith figures! I found these on the site of a Dutch shop for movie and game merchandising. I visit this site quite often, so you can imagine my surprise that I found something like this on their webpage. Here are the links: Buffy: www.gator.nl/image_zoom.php?show=MV81NDUxX2dma1Fwd1g1bzIuanBnFaith: www.gator.nl/image_zoom.php?show=MV81NDUyX2s0SXFXa0ptMVIuanBnSome comments: I really like all the Buffy variants, although I'm wondering about the denim jacket: is it soft rubber clothing, including sleeves? GD Buffy seemed to have removable arms in the original ToyFare pics. There is some heavy re-use of parts going on between Buffy and Faith. They probably all share the same legs and stomach. It's most noticeable with EoD Buffy and EoD Faith, they have identical bodies and clothing, except for the shirt. Faith's headsculpt on the Bad Girls version looks better, the picture is taken at a different angle and she seems to have darker eyes and lipstick. All versions have the same hair though. All in all, great figures, cool variants, but the re-use of body parts disappoints me a little, especially on EoD Faith. And I was hoping for a different Faith (hair-)sculpt. My favorites: EoD Buffy, OMWF Buffy and Bad Girls Faith. Check it out! Grumble

Hmm. I didn't notice it until you mentioned it Fred, but they DO look a bit big, don't they?

Wow! I love them all! OMWF Buffy looks awesome! I can't wait to get these! As for the Faiths, the only one I really like is the one from "Bad Girls."

I think I'll be getting all the Buffy's but I don't know about the Faith's........And I just noticed something (That, or I'm real slow) Almost all the Faith's facial sculpting seems to be much less than par. Look at the 'Angel' Faith figure, SlideShow figures, and these ones!

You're right, SlayerGal. The bust is way off, too. The ornament fairs a tad better though.
I like the Buffy with the hair up the best.

Thanks Fred! I love yours too, cuz well, I love Fred too! I think maybe the sculptor's didn't have time to look at a photo of Eliza and said, "Hey, let's wing it!" For Buffy, her pants seem a just a tad to dark. I think her pants a a lighter black.

OMwF Buffy is great! But somwthing about the shirt looks off to me. I think it is the sleeves. Bad Girls Faith is really awesome. Not to sure about End of Days Faith. Something about her looks...sickly. She looks like she must come with different accessories. Her hands are different.

I think OMWF Buffy's sleeves were looser fitting to her arms in the episode.

I believe the jackets are removable and the sleeves slip onto the arms as a separate piece from the "vest" part.

I like End of Days Buffy the best. My biggest complaints are Buffy's eyes seem to squinty, and Faith looks stoned. I will definatley be getting all of these though.

I do really like them especially the Buffy's
I have three problems
1. Faith likeness (although bad girls faith does look good)
2. Incase no one had noticed OMWF Buffy has black pants they are supposed to be light blue jeans
and 3. the EoD Faith looks more like Kennedy to me lol
Deffo buy at least one Faith and all the Buffy's

Faith looks much better in these pictures, especially the Bad Girls one. My favorite is still End of Days Buffy.

Wow well done for finding these! Despite the innacuries people have mentioned, I love OMWF Buffy! She looks great! The Faith's are a alittle dissapointing...,but I'll definatly get them...maybe not Bad Girls Faith, depends how rich I'm feeling I'm glad there aren't too many varients...tho I would have liked EOD Faith's hair to be a little different, as it is in the show, but I'm still happy
