I still only have one Tiki and desperately want more! Spike would be cool, especially looking at the promo pictures, but I have a way to go before I catch up with this line...

hmm. i was hoping for more news... i'm actually looking forward to Spike now because he is the first male figure of this line. I'm not sure if i want the vampire versian of the human versian! *excited* ;D I have on good authority that the figures will have exchangable heads. So you could get both. It's just the color of the outfits that change.

So the Spike figure is still a go? I hadn't heard any new info and wasn't sure.

^^ Yes, I'm completely jealous of you too, Candy. I have all the others out so far, but you have the tiki I am looking for. And it is SO hard to find at a reasonable price, because I'm not desperate enough for it to pay $250.00 which has been the cheapest price I have seen so far.
But I can understand your OMWF getting lonely. Here is some Karma for you and your lonely tiki

Any news on the release date for Spike? Angel is next right? Any sketches of him floating around yet? How many more might be made after that? I think these are just great. I have Faith, and just got Buffy today. In a couple of weeks I'll be buying both Willows which I am very excited about. I just wish I had a red shirt Faith, it looks soo awesome. And I would give my left arm for a OMWF Buffy, but the only one I have seen was for around $350 and that's a little steep for me. (Apparently my left arm isn't worth as much as one would think.) Of course I would love a Glory too, if I could find one for a decent price. Spike looks pretty cool, and I will definatly buy one, but the tooned up look really does suit the girls better. Hopefully we get an Anya, and a Tara. Dawn is far from my favorite character but I'd even buy her. Hopefully this line keeps up, unlike some of the other lines.

I have some bad news.
At btvsfigs forum, a member wrote this yesterday:
"I emailed Electric Tiki about the future of the Buffy line and they said there are no characters planned after Spike at this moment. This is heartbreaking. I was REALLY hoping to see another character or two at SDCC.
On other news they informed me that the Sideshow exclusive will be the red shirt black pants version that is on Electric Tiki's website...so the black shirt gray pants version above must be the regular release."
It doesn't sound like they're planning on renewing their license (which they have to soon I think).
No news of when Spike will be released, but he seems like a sure bet. No talk about what figure would have come after him, not from what I've heard.

That is disappointing. I wonder why. All have sold out, and quickly except Dark Witch Willow for some reason. I looked on Sideshow's site the other day and they still have those available. I was really hoping this would turn into a huge set of figures.

Well, I saw it. ;P
30 bucks off is a good price, but I think I'll get the excluisve. One day in a distant future. When I have my own money tree. Or atleast a job.

Yeah, tell me about it. A money tree would be nice. I have a job, but all the money I get from that goes to bills these days, with not much fun money left over.
I saw some people are already posting pre-sells on ebay for Spike as well. But I too think I will wait for the exclusive. I'm surprised Sideshow hasn't posted any pre-sales for it yet on their site.

Doubt it will be released then. Over at sideshow's Whedon-forum, it's very common to joke about how slow Sideshow is to ship. So even if that's the date Sideshow has planned, don't expect to get it home before Christmas.
