Can't wait! My favorite Buffyverse charcter! :banana
 
Got my notice as well! It looks like we will have lots of new toys in about four weeks! woohoo!:banana
 
Haven't gotten my notice but I always seem to get these things late! Anyway, FINALLY!!! It seems like it's been a long time coming for these to be mailed out to us. I suppose it will be like another month then before we actually get them if they aren't expecting them for at least another 20-25 days and then it usually takes me about 5 days to get it after that!

Can't wait!
 
Got my notice for both versions as well. :joy

I'm really looking forward to Darla but this month is going to be murder on my CC.:sick :sick

Yeah I know how you feel, I hope I can afford both Darlas and Luke.


Now The question for those that are getting both figures but aren't going to open both, is which one do you open which one do you display mib?
I Think I'm only going to open the blue one and display the red mib. There's something about the blue one that is more appealing then the red.

Like all my figures, you open BOTH of course. Those figures can't breathe in their packages. :D

I usually open them all, but this is a case where I think the two figures are almost identical (in head sculpt and costume type) and I'd rather not have the two anywhere near one another. So I thought I'd unbox one and leave the other boxed for display.
There are other Buffy, Angel, and Spike repeats but they're different enough for me to display them together.
Maybe I'll make two separate Buffy displays for both Darlas? She wouldn't work for an Angel display since I doubt she ever wore the school girl outfit on that show.
 
I ordered both because I'm hoping that well see a cute Julie Benz sculpt so I can convert one to "non-vamped" out Darla. And with the Angel line coming I figure it should happen. Just have to hope the hairstyle won't be too much of a problem on the version released.
 
Wow!

That was fast!!!

I wonder how the UK is getting Darla before the US, but I did notice that she listed as thirty days away in the European warehouse well before she showed up in the US warehouse list!
Congrats, and I am sure we would love to see pics!!!

I got my tracking # today, so I should get this figure either tomorrow or Thursday. I'll try and post pics when she arrives!

Happy that you guys are getting a figure first for a change but now I know how you feel!! I want mine too!:monkey2

Can't wait to see your pictures!! I've been preparing - rearranged all my Buffy figures because the shelves were getting a bit crowded and already have two spots reserved for the new Darlas, a spot for D'Hoffryn when he comes and "City of Angel" too - note to self - need more shelves!:bouncin
 
You know, from your close up picture of the face, she looks sort of like Harmony to me. Anyone else?
 
I got the regular one today.
I think if your an in box collector like prophecygirl the blue one is best for you,but if you open go with red as she looks cool with guns and blue never uses guns.
there both ecellent.
I havent opened mine yet as i need a new shelf putting up for it.
matty
 
I had both figured ordered but recently cancelled the red version, just not very impressed with the vamp likeness on this fig. Granted it's a vamp but the face looks too long for Julie Benz. I'll keep the blue in it's box.
