Ben, did the coupon at Bill'sBricks work for you. It hasn't worked when I've tried it.
EDIT: Nevermind! It's working now!

Has there been any official word from, say, Kevin at TST as to how Day II went?

This is all I could find in the mailbox, and it was sent the day after figure day:
"a huge SPIKE in sales! I will have a more formal response later today or tomorrow. (have to talk to DST some more)."

All I have been told is that DST isn't being receptive to TST. Our efforts were noticed, but talks are still going.

Hey CBG, have you heard anything new at all about the Buffy figures? Any plans for a third buy a figure day? Also, I really would like to join the other buffy board as well (btvsfigs) as it seems most people belong to both and I sent my registration application like a month ago and still nothing. Is there anything you could do like maybe contact whoever is in charge there that doesn't seem to have anything to do with the place anymore and get me registered? I would appreciate it so much. Kudos to you though CBG for still being involved with this place and for caring. It's really appreciated. Thanks.

I'm interested if y'all do a third buy a fig day. I didn't have the money the last two times, but I need to buy Christmas presents for folks anyway.

Yeah I didn't get to participate in either buy a figure days either as I just discovered Buffy figures recently and since my idea about trying to get our own figure made was blown off so quickly I guess buy a figure days are the only chance we have. Time and Space can't seem to get a figure that's already tooled out of DST so we're going to need to buy alot of stuff to pay for a brand new figure. I wish that they could get a deluxe Harmony made if we bought enough. I have been reading old threads at btvsfigs and it appears that even though I missed the MAC debacle i'm getting to live through it again. The silence is deafening.

If we do get a figure at all, I really, really want Gunn as he is the only full-time character without any figures. I think the reason they weren't selling as many figures as they wanted is because instead of making new ones, we got more Xanders and Willows. As much as we all love these characters, how many Willows does one person need, let alone afford? I wish they had concentrated on making figures like Gunn, Harmony, Riley, Adam and other villains. And not making the Judge assortment after they announced it and took preorders was just mean and BAD BUSINESS!

No news at all. I'm bummed.
I hope we see something again, someday.
But as always, if I hear something I will post it!

Finally a snippet of new from BCC on Buffy Buy A Figure Day 2. It was included in their news letter they sent out yesterday and stated:
BUFFY BUY-A-FIGURE DAY Thanks to all of you for making the Buy-A-Figure Day campaigns a huge success! Our talks with DST continue, the good news as most all cancelled figures are still available to us as exclusives. With a little luck and effort we hope to get something rolling right after the busy holiday season. There are details still to be worked out, and we hope to be able to annouce something more concrete soon.
Unfortunately, due to their treatment of international customers, I won't be ordering one from them, as I am sure many others won't either.

Hey Sandy! Thanks for the update i'm not a BCC member so I wouldn't have known if not for you. Listen, i'm in the U.S. and i've sold some toys and shipped to Canada with no issues and if it turns out that you want the exclusive i'll gladly help you get it. Anything to help with the success of a *new* figure. I can order it and you can pay me back and i'll send it to ya if you want. Plus your the only one besides me that seems to have bought a Crush Dru and well, we rock!
P.S. Who do you hope it will be? Me, i'm kinda hoping for "Fear itself" Oz even though he's not deluxe I want a Gachnar and that awesome base.

Me, i'm kinda hoping for "Fear itself" Oz even though he's not deluxe I want a Gachnar and that awesome base. Thanks for the offer halfrekfan. I have already spoken with a friend in the U.S. who orders from BCC anyway, she said she would order one for me if I needed. Also, I think I might be able to get one from Pixel Barrel in Canada as they get all things Buffy/Angel. It just ticks me off that I have to go to these lengths. I would have much rather purchased directly from BCC using my membership. As for what figure I would like to see as an exclusive, I don't care which one it is, as long as it's new. Just want to add to my collection. Always looking for something new, no matter what it is. And, as for Crush Drusilla, I would never pass up on that opportunity, no matter how "pricey". I just loved Drusilla.
