PREVIEW : BUFFY PREMIUM FORMAT

[JSA]

I think that looks great and I'll likely pick it up! It'd be my first Buffy item.

Funny that Attakus's Buffy has supposedly been in approval Hell:

Yet Sideshow plows right through with a 1/4 PF of her. Bam!

I like this one so far, and that makes a whole other line that will
tax the finances of the many, many Buffy/Angel collectors.

The likeness looks great and I will definitely be picking this up at some point. I always told myself I would only collect Buffy figures if they made them in 1/4 scale.

Oh my GOODNESS those French have been quite resourceful this week

 

[Kookie]

Maybe we should burn down the French embassy for releasing such images

 

[Viking28]

ALRIGHT!!!! I cant wait to order this!!! Finally a 1/4 Buffy!

 

[The Josh]

Her boobs look to big. LOL


How in the hell are the French getting a hold of this stuff?

 

[Viking28]

What?? Her boobs like fine!

 

[Xeno]

She looks a bit sad!

And yes, why do we have to get these things from the French?

Looks great... from what I can see. Although I admit I always prefer actiony and/or episode specific designs (instead of figures based on promos), it still has my interest...

 

[Darklord Dave]

I was hoping for some sort of wig system for a more real hair look, but I must say I'm pleased by the sculpt. And as Frankenfan said it looks like it's based on S.1 which had a bit more zaftig Buff, hence the cleavage.

I think SS needs to do something about the web site security if the secret photos are being found early.
Kind of kills the anticipation and the specialness of Toyfair announcements.
I think this is a great sculpt but I don't have the cash for PF's so
I will skip this one.

I agree fully. Sideshow really needs to do something. It kinda sucks seeing them this way.
PF Buffy Looks amazing, but I don't like the character enough to buy one.

Chris is on it. You will (hopefully!) not be seeing anymore photos from the sneaky French site. They did not get everything of interest, trust me

 

[Azog]

Yeah, like the ultra cool PF Dusty, with Exclusive Luke and Leia figures...

 

[FrankenFan]

It looks very promising.

I'm very curious to see the full reveal and put that wistful, almost melancholy look in perspective.

And boy, is that paint job going to be a mother to mass-produce!

I just noticed the similarity of the hair and top to those WB promo pix: Didn't mean to imply that was definitely the case. Here're a couple more shots from that shoot:

And Gooball: Good to see you back around these parts! The Buffy discussions were always lively when you were a regular, and I've missed your commentary!

Well, another of my faux banners goes into retirement with the announcement of this figure, so take a bow, Big Buffy!

Sometimes, I just don't know what to think about some people's comments.

 

[Alice Adrenochrome]

The Buffy likeness is stunning. Are we going to see some eyelashes, as introduced for the 1/4 Princess Leia?

 

[Xeno]

Sometimes, I just don't know what to think about some people's comments.

Not to drag politics/religion in here (please not! ) but that remark was quite funny, I thought.

Anyway, I do also hope that Buffy will have a good likeness.. and not only the prototype! I was a bit dissapointed in what I've seen so far from teh Attakus Buffy. And I like the 1/4 PF 's from SS a lot so I hope this one will be as great as the preview makes it look. I'm not a real buffy fan ( a SMG fan I am )but 1 GOOD Buffy figure would be very nice to have!

And I'd say, go French go!

 

[oxbeard]

Sign me up for this!!!!! Been waiting on this for a while

 

[FrankenFan]

I'm not a real buffy fan ( a SMG fan I am

Just curious: How can you be an SMG fan but not a Buffy fan? Buffy put her on the map. Are you a fan of her oeuvre in film?

For me it's just the opposite: Buffy fan I am, but SMG at the movies, not so much.

 

[creecher]

She looks good, and it had to happen in one form or another, so we should all be pleased. The French have just given us a glimpse, which is what Sideshow would have done, so we should get more detail when the Fair starts.

From what Frankenfan has used as his banner, and the pics he has posted in this thread, I would prefer the Banner Buffy. I think there is enough black, and a more colourful rendition is more appealing to the eye, and would look better on our shelves.

I still worry about Dusty and her teasing comments from a few days ago. She may be able to redeem herself with her comment that there is more to see at the Fair. Thames, I hope it is a Giles mate.
