This line would be the best way to do an Illyria figure, also deluxe fig versions of The Master, Adam, and for the few of us who would get him, human and android variant versions of Ted!

She looks great but Buffy's eyes are green not blue. Also the eyebrows are a little...intense but that'll change. I know! That's a common mistake a lot of people make. I LOVE Sarah Michelle Gellar's GORGEOUS green eyes.

Even the writers made that mistake in "The Girl in Question" when Angel tells the bartender in Italy that Buffy is a blond-haired, blue-eyed girl. I've got a feeling there were some Spuffy sick dogs behind that one but it's quite possible the episode sucked so much nobody noticed. And I agree, Sarah's eyes are radiant and outstanding.

I think the character of Buffy have blue eyes, but Sara michelle gellar have hazel eyes, which mean it isn't green or brown.

You can't really see the color of Buffy's eyes all too well because of the lighting. See, it's always dark in Buffy so usually her pupils are dialated but in certain scenes you can tell they're most definatley green verging on hazelish. I saw "Dirty Girls" today and in that scene where the First shows Caleb what Buffy looks like, Buffy/the First's eyes are clearly green.

I'm sorry, but I really hate those pictures. They make Buffy look like a 50 year old man.

This is a picture of her eyes, they aren't full green, they have a lot of honey in there, i think they should pay attention to the eyes more cause they are a very deep eyes.

They look so good! The Buffys especially. I think the best Faith looks to be 'Bad Girls' Faith.

I hate to say this (because I love DST) but............
I really think its a bad idea to launch this line with such a half-ass Faith.
I realize that they used Faith so they could re-use body parts but...
I would have rather seen MORE Buffy's in this line since they cant do Faith right.
Doesn't Sarah have to approve her sculpts?
Doesn't Eliza?
With ALL previous attempts to do a Faith figure does Eliza even care.
Im really iffi on this whole line ONLY due to the fact of the ultra lack of any likness at all to Eliza.
Buffy looks great!!!!!!!!!!! BUT the other HALF of this line is bleah!
Sorry I dont mean to be negative but I got to keep it real.
I wish I was excited about this line but Im not, and actually at this point Im going to have to REALLY like the packaging to get these.
This line was a good idea if you ask me but implimented poorly. ( They had a long time to make changes and they heard the initial reactions to this figure for sure and STILL did nothing that I can see)
Wes and Lorne look better all the time. What happened here?
I'd reallly like to see them FOCUS on more figures in the regular line than these.
I know they want to try to appeal to a broader market with these, but they should have delayed.
I'll quit ranting now

Some actors actually have contractual agreements that say companies like DST can use their image without approval so it's very possible Eliza never saw the figure and does not know it's being made. I do agree about Faith being kind of half-assed though, the proportions are totallly inncorrect and it's quite frustrating but to be fair these aren't the final products, there is always a bunch of changes around paint scheme. In my opinion, this would've been much easier had DST just produced the Buffy figures first instead of sticking Faith in there a few months after Graduation Day Buffy was done. If I have to wait a few months to get a decent figure of one of the core characters it wouldn't be so bad, you know?

The conclusion I've come to with Faith is that her forehead protudes a bit too much. If they sanded it down so it didn't stick out so much, I think the likeness would be helped. She's definitely a tough likeness to get. You can find pictures where she looks a whole lot like the figures here, and then others where she doesn't as much. I don't think we could even agree on what specifically is wrong with these. Without a scan, I don't think we'll ever see her captured perfectly.

Speaking of protruding forheads, did anyone notice OMWF Buffy and Graduation Day Buffy have kind of freaky foreheads too? It's not enough to screw up the likeness but sometimes they look weird at an angle.
