Now that's what I call a collection. Awesome! Seriously, you have tons of stuff and I thought I was bad I have my whedonverse collectables located all round the house and am rapidly running out of room, I'm naughty though and take my figures out of the boxes!

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments I am super proud of my collection and it is so nice to be able to show it to people that can enjoy looking at it and appreciate the obsession El Diablo Robotico ~ You are right, the chess set can be ridiculously expensive considering that the pieces are only plastic and not that well detailed/made. I watched many sets on ebay and saw them go for a lot until I was lucky enough to bid on one that nobody else seemed to have noticed and got it for under a tenner! My Feigenbaum was a present from a good friend of mine so I didn't have to spend a crazy amount on a stuffed toy either! I will not tell my boyfriend that Lorne and Anya look cool together on stage as it will only encourage him to mess about with them even more, but I may leave them together Moon Eyes ~ I started collecting about five years ago. My boyfriend bought me my first figures (vampire Drusilla and Beneath You Spike) and some series one Palz, and that started my obsession with collecting, which as you can see, has spiralled over the years! My boyfriend has bought me a lot of my collection, like for Christmas he bought me the two Ikon variant Buffy and Spike figures. He stakes out the collection before birthdays and other events, and then tries to find me something I don't have!! I buy most of it from ebay and have managed to get some quite good deals over the years, like my skateboard that cost me £1.04!!! Thedothatgirl ~ I only keep my MAC and rarer figures in the boxes, the rest had to be unboxed when I moved house as I just couldn't pack them all and move them!! I am running out of room to display everything, but I am sure I will manage somehow SlayerLV ~ Thanks for the info about the collection post

I'm so jealous of your Electric Tiki! I've always wanted one, but they're just a little bit out of my price range, lol. I also love your season five Spike, especially the mug.

Electric Tiki Buffy is so cool. I have also wanted one for so long but couldn't afford one, but got a bargain on ebay last week so am super super happy I am saving for a Faith now. Everyone loves the librarian mug, it is fab! I want a real one but they are really hard to get apparently?

And I didn't know they make those mugs in real life. Were they preexisting and Buffy happened to use one in an episode? Or are they made specifically modeled after the one in Buffy?

Not at all Eric, she was £48.01 (about $72) brand new and boxed. I was pleased with the price, then people have said that the OMWF one is quite hard to get and how much they can go for, so I was extra pleased!!
I *think* the mugs were made specifically as Buffy merchandise, but I'm not sure. I must investigate further...
Thanks PJ!!

If you find out anything about the mugs, could you do me a favor and tell me? I'll do the same if I find anything, as you've piqued my interest enough to also investigate a bit. (:

Thank you!! Of course I will share any info I find I know you can get them here: www.cafepress.com/+buffy+mugs?page=1but they are not official merchandise, and not in yellow I am not 100% sure they are available as official merchandise, but I'm sure I read somewhere a while ago that some were released but were only available in Australia? I know it sounds random so I may be wrong, but I remember reading something similar...

I know it sounds random so I may be wrong, but I remember reading something similar... I actually came across that link, ignored the librarian mug, as they weren't yellow, and concentrated on all the other cooler ones, lol. I especially loved the ones with Giles's drawings from Hush. Australia, you say? That does seem a bit random, but I guess there a are few items bound to be exclusive to one region or another. Does anybody know if Australia has any generic, sites like Amazon or eBay? We'd probably have better luck there than on an American or British site.

I would roam in your houses for hours in awe. <3
I really wish I could receive those magazines plus dvds. I wonder if I could work out a deal with one of your members who live in the UK. -wiggles eyebrows-

Thanks the girl in question, dontgetanyolder and Executrix!! Maybe I should open my house up as a Buffy museum and charge people to come and look around? Except Slayalivers of course, you can all come for free Executrix, I would happily have worked out something with you regarding sending the magazines and dvds, but the series is about half way through and I am not sure if you can order back issues that far (and it would be pretty expensive all in one go!)
