If something more concrete comes up, you could probably write a blog entry on this new line of fancy doodads.

Holy gothic hell! That Buffy is amazeballs!! I am totally loving the chair, and her likeness is great too. We really need to support these so we can get more. The quality of them looks very high. I am so excited for new Buffy merchandise, figures and statues more importantly! The time is right, the Sideshow guy is right about that!

Don't worry Thorny, it was released on the 28th.
I'll keep you guys updated on the progress. I hope we get to see Buffy painted soon.

I've been wanting someone to make a new series, so I could collect them. ^.^ I may actually buy all of these, because they look awesome. Maybe an Angel line could come out?; Illyria?! ;D

The Buffy figure looks AMAZING! I definitely want to get that one! Sooooooooo excited that they are finally coming out with new Buffy merch! ;D Is this due to the success of the S8 comics? The latest "vampires yay" craze? Either way, it is great!

I hate statues. I would so rather have more 1/6 scale figures. I don't think I want any of these, and even if I did, I couldn't afford them.

Hm, it seems as the sculptors has taken some of their inspiration from the Buffy comics as well. I remember seeing that kind of dress and boots combination on Buffy in the "Time of Your Life" arc. Its the orange dress that is "so damn impractical"? Faith's stance is verrrrry similar to one comic where she is on the cover. I don't remember the exact comic but I'm pretty sure it's in the "No Future For You" arc. Oh wait, I found a pic of both girls. Here ya go: Look familar? Willow's sculpture is obviously pre-season 4 because of the Werewolf in her backpack. That is one sculpture I will not be buying.

The Faith design was definitly Jo Chen inspired, and I think I might even have seen a similar Willow comic sketch somewhere. I think the Buffy one was inspired by a promo fic from season 1 tough, because I remember her wearing a dress like that (golden?) and boots.

Buffy looking provocative in a big gothic throne... yeah really captured her essence there. I'll pass.

Man, I loved these! I love that the Buffy they used in this is an older Buffy(season 2ish, which is my fave). The juxtaposition of her and the big gothic throne is really cool and I love that element-she's the sunshiny and bright person(at least in appearance) in the dark gothic world. But...that's not really a Mr. Pointy stake! Maybe they'll make it more like the original?
Faith is awesome, and looks very badass. I would definitely want to buy her in the pose; it's so darn cool.
Willow is cute, but I hope they do a little more with her. But the werewolf in the backpack is just so adorable.

I'm not really familiar with Sideshows products. I have a few questions and would love it if someone could answer (based on their previous Buffy lines)
Are they good quality? Are they expensive? Are they difficult to get your hands on?

I can answer the second and third question (but go here for better answers www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=29 ) Yes and yes/no. I've heard from sideshow collectors that a statue like this could be going from 200-300USD. It will probably be limited too. I have no idea how limited, but in case they only release 500, you should expect them to sell pretty quickly and sell for a lot of ebay in a few years. That's the way it was with the Buffy premium format statues, which were very limited and sold for about 250USD and now go for about 200-500USD on ebay.

Thanks Sky Wow, I will never be able to afford that (never say never Ryan) I was hoping around 100USD But I will try my best to get one when they are released. And those collections in that link are so cool.

Cool! I think this statue is hilarious, I already have the essence of Buffy statue which i LOVE so i enjoy that this is a little more... obscure? Hate the look of that Willow concept, ugh

I dont usually buy statues/statuettes but I think this might just have to be the first.
