Confirmed: Next Tuesday we're getting a new "Buffy" figure!

[olvidadero]

Next Tuesday we're getting a "Buffy" pre-order.

Click on the "Tuesday" balloon: http://www.sideshowtoy.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=toyfair07

Can we all say a big YAY!

Will it be a Buffy Buffy figure, or an "Angel" figure. Predictions. I say it's either Anya from Buffy, PF Angel or 12 inch Wesley.

Who else is extremely happy???

[Anzik]

I'm hoping for a couple figures but I'll be happy with one.

[Eli26]

PF FAITH or Willow and I am all over it! I do want an Angel, but women are so hot! hehe

[Bullseye]

I hope its an Angel PF.:D

[Slayerverse98]

How do you know it's a new figure? It could be just one of those Electric Tiki thingies. I am hoping it's a new figure though. I hope it's either
Buffy: Anya, Dawn, Tara, PF Angel or even a new Buffy! In Angel: Fred, Gunn, Illyria or Wesley

You're right, I hadn't thought about that possibility. I hope it's not anyway. I want a new figure, or a PF Angel.

Moderator, to be more accurate with the thread title, if you want to change "figure" for "product" or whatever...

[Slayerverse98]

You got my all hyped up now too, lol

[olvidadero]

HEY! If you click on the "Monday balloon" you can see it says "Electrik Tiki Pre-Orders. That leaves the tuesday pre-order only for 1:6 or PF. So, if we're REALLY lucky we might even get a SSC figure and an Electrik Tiki statuette. So, no need to change anything, right? *Keeps fingers crossed until tuesday.

[TheObsoleteMan]

If it ain't an Angel figure I'm gonna be pissed.

Come on Wes!

I thought about that but wouldn't a Buffy Electric Tiki class as a Buffy pre-order? I hope it's not one of those. Please be a PF Angel or a Buffy/Angel figure!

*crosses fingers*

[Eli26]

The Buffy preorder could be Electrik Tiki... it is after all sold through SideShow. So just be prepared for that. I am not saying that will be the case, but we have to open ourselves to that very possbility. :monkey1

[olvidadero]

Then what's the point of having an "Electrik Tiki" pre-orders dedicated space, wouldn't a tooned up Buffy statuette be included in that category? I'm sure the "Buffy pre-order" is a 12 ich figure or a PF

[Eli26]

It may or may not be. I guess we'll find out on Tuesday. Just preparing us for the worst. Look it at this way, set us up for the worst, so if we get a great announcement, one we want to hear, like that of another 12" or PF, we'll be pleasantly surprised vs. being disappointed. ;)

[hairlesswookiee]

I think a PF Angel would be great to go along with the current Buffy and Spike PFs.

for a 12" i hope they announce Wes!!!

[olvidadero]

I usually work that way with upcoming news, exams, and many aspects of my life, so it's a good way of waiting for it to happen. However, I'm getting ready for something good this time, I have the feeling. If we get something truly disappointing I might not leave bed in two months! lol

[Slayerverse98]

Eli and Olvi both have good points. I guess we'll have to wait and see

Thanks, yes, we'll have to wait. Hopefully we'll find out what it is before the day of the pre-order, just like last year with ComicCon. Btw, Slayerverse98, I like your new signature picture, I love the colours ^^

Exactly.

The "Buffy Pre-Order" listed for Tuesday will be a product from the Buffy license.

The "Electric Tiki Pre-Orders" listed for Monday and Wednesday — that's Pre-Orders, plural — could include a Tooned-Up Buffy, which would indeed be a very pleasant surprise.

Thanks :) I've just made it because i thought my other was too in your face

yep, i'm with you Obsoleteman!!!!:D


Shai...do I detect a Buffy Naysayer....be carefulo young man, you do not want to incur the wrath of the dude!!!!!!!:emperor

[Eli26]

I like the colours too slayer, they are oh so pretty.. oh so very pretty... awww the blues, the other colours! They get me all giddy inside!

[Eli26]

Shai isn't in this thread... What you smoking?! :confused: :horse

Nevermind, I see it now. Damn Shai, giiiit outta here! This is for Buffy/Angel fans. No trolling!

[BillyBudd]

This is good news. I'm hoping for a PF Angel.

[BDboystoys]

This is great! If its a figure Im guessing Wesley, or a PF Angel. Could be Tooned-Up Buffy though:confused:

[buffy-collector]

I hope its Anya/Anyanka 12inch or Illyria.I hope its a 12inch and not a pf,because I collect 12inchs:D (How many pf do ya need after you have Buffy lol)

[Eli26]

A lot. 1/4 PFs > 12" dolls

[olvidadero]

Wee need an Angel, because it wouldn't make sense displaying Buffy and Spike without Angel. I would be happy with those three only, especially because of the high prices of PF statues, but if a Willow, Faith or Illyria were to be made, I would sell my arm to get them.

[olvidadero]

The Toy Fair coverage has began on the Sideshow webpage with the "Hostel" figure from medicom (1 of 31). When do you think we will find out about our Buffy figure???

[Protozaius]

I don't want to drive myself crazy with all of the possiblities that the pre-order might be. MUST REMAIN CALM. :monkey1 :monkey1 :monkey1

Still, I don't know why but I'm fairly sure that it's going to be an Angel PF... one patterned after his appeance on Buffy rather than Angel.

Though I would VERY much prefer a 1/6 announcement. :monkey3 :monkey3 :monkey3

Anyway, it's a good sign that Sideshow has a bit more in store for us Buffy fans. :D

[dr2red]

Personally if it is a 1/6 instead of a PF I hope it is either Anya, Wesley or
The Judge.

I don't buy the PF's after being disappointed by Buffy. That is another thread
altogether.

[Anzik]

The question is, does the alternate PF Buffy squash any possible 1/6 figure announcement?

[BillyBudd]

It appears that way. All of the blocks on the Toy Fair page are filled in now.

[TheObsoleteMan]

Well, that's it for me. Sideshow can do whatever they like with the Angel line (which appears to be nothing at all), it no longer concerns me.

[oxbeard]

While I will likely pick up the Alternate Buffy, is this going to be the new trend in PFs? We got 3 versions of Spidey, a second Connery Bond, and now a second Buffy which appears to be the same sculpt different outfit.

[olvidadero]

It may or may not be. I guess we'll find out on Tuesday. Just preparing us for the worst. Look it at this way, set us up for the worst, so if we get a great announcement, one we want to hear, like that of another 12" or PF, we'll be pleasantly surprised vs. being disappointed. ;)

You can do the "told you so" dance Eli! :confused:

I'm sure you'll grab the next 1/6th when it comes out. Someone copy this post for posterity ;p

Yeah I really doubt the Angel line is done, is it a matter of timing thats the issue? Because when the next one comes out you will order it right? I dont understand why you'd just stop when their may be more soon. They coming out slowly, but surely I believe.

[Slayerverse98]

Just checked out the Toy Fair page and seen the PF aleternate Buffy and i think she looks good but can't really see her face. This is one i'll be picking up since i didn't get chance to get the other PF Buffy. I want to see her face though because from the looks of it she looks something like the 12" Hush Buffy or the Graduation Day Buffy

It's definitely the same sculpt as the first PF Buffy (it's an alternative version of the original, if it was a new sculpt, it wouldn't be "version 2", that's my guess). But the painting and especially the hairstyle look alot like Hush Buffy's.

[Slayerverse98]

I think the sculpt looks different somehow. Maybe it's the hair and paint, i dunno. She's looking good though. Only slight problem so far is her pants being baggy but i'm sure that'll be fixed.If not then it's not a major problem.

I dont like how Sideshow have her back facing to us so we can't see her face. That's just mean! lol

The pants will be fixed, hopefully. And if not, maybe it's just a "back" problem, and once displayed not noticeable, because you won't display it back facing like Sideshow! ;)

[Slayerverse98]

Yeh true. Wonder when she'll be up for pre-order - tuesday? Also when she'll begin to ship

[olvidadero]

Do you think we will get a surprise announcement from Monday on Toy Fair? I'm starting to think we might. Looking at the products page on the SSC website TF coverage, I've noticed there not even one 12 inch figure made by Sideshow, which is weird. Don't you think they'd be presenting new 12 inch figures from their star lines, like Star Wars? I'm feeling they might still have something for us.

[Slayerverse98]

It's possible. I hope we do

The" Brr. It's cold outside" could be snowBunny Amidala perhaps?
And you get a pretty good view of Buffy 2's face in the alternating pictures on the Toyfair page.

Ummm, the eye brows are too thick. Almost Bert and Erniesh...and because of that it seems off. I don't know if this is really an improvement from the original...

We haven't had an Angel announcement since SDCC, and no reassurance that there's going to be another one. If Sideshow would just let us know that something else is coming eventually perhaps I'd be more patient, but I'm tired of waiting around playing guessing games. Time to move on.

And no, I won't order the next one. If there is indeed a next one.

[buffy-collector]

I hope they announce somthing else because this sucks!
First of all when did buffy have them clothes on?the top half looks to be from graduation part 2,but the trousers are from part one?
When buffy had the black top,and red pants on her hair was down.The first one is soo much better.

[Anzik]

Thats a rather expensive rehash.

[olvidadero]

Did anyone else think that with SSC had to do something with all the PF Buffys with the lazy eye issue that were returned and they used them to give us this. That'd explain the nonsense of the choice, and the quick delivery estimate date. Or am being too evil?

Well I thought that maybe the unused ones where changed for this. But I realised its just not possible. The new hair sculpt would mean a totally new mold.

[Dave mack]

that pic on the previous page shows the same eye issue

[olvidadero]

I agree, there's still some lazy eye. But if you pay attention, Sarah Michelle Gellar herself suffers from lazy eye. Okay, it's not that she's cross-eyed or whatnot, but sometimes it's pretty noticeable. It doesn't bother me so much this lazy eye issue, since I started realizing that the own actress had some (clearly noticeable in some Buffy episodes, not so much in the pictures).
