No love for Buffy?

Maybe it's the confusion over not knowing where to post: DS or GG; but none seems to say much about the new Buffy busts.

I found this article on the new Spike bust on Action-Figure.com .

I think once again they've nailed the likeness, but what's with the crappy stained glass in the background. (The arm positions are also dull. Leave 'em off if they serve no purpose.)

It also looks from the one pic that there's a variant. (Vamp Spike I'd assume.)

Likeness is excellent but the glass as a background looks like crap and the base sucks.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Brrr is the glass part of the bust, if so I hope they lose it, kinda wimpy.

I'd probably end up buying a couple of these.

Btw Attakus also was doing a buffy statue like ages ago wonder what happened to that.

I ordered both Buffy busts. I may try to go back and grab the two Oz. I'd rather get a separate bust for two characters than 2 busts of the same character - especially early in the line. This kind of distribution has killed many a bust line.

I've heard rumors that Willow is next. I agree that DST/GG need to concentrate on the main characters...Buffy, Giles, Willow, and Xander are the most important characters in the show, and busts of all four should be made. Spike, Angel, and Cordelia are right up there in importance. I personally don't feel that Oz, Anya, Dawn, and Tara are quite as significant as the others I've mentioned, but busts of them would be nice as well. We already have Oz. Monsters are great, but DST/GG shouldn't go overboard with them like MAC did.

So far I only have one of the Oz busts, but I plan to collect at least one of each character. It depends on the character. I'll probably end up collecting all of them though...as long as they don't screw anything up. So far, so good though. I can't complain about any of the likenesses so far. I do agree that the Spike busts would look better without the stained glass. It's coming off.

The Turok Han (aka ubervamp) bust looks awesome!
