Okay so front page says that there will be good news for figure fans in the next few days, let the speculation begin! I'm guessing that TST finally got their exclusive, what do you think it's going to be? I'm hoping for Willow's Spellbook with Chosen willow head on Doppelgangland body instead of that sucky fuzzy Vampire Willow. God I hope it's not Gunn. I want it to be from Buffy. If it's Gunn then that's just gonna be more disappointment for me. What if it were something completely unexpected like Deluxe Harmony? What's everyone think?

Ooh interesting. I won't get too excited as it could well be new deals or anything really, but still it's awesome to have some kind of news to report.
I don't care all that much about which figure TST got. I'd prefer Gunn, Band Candy Giles, The Judge or Tough Love Willow. I'd likely buy anything for the cause. I really pushed for a Gunn, and it'd be great to get him, but I'd be disappointed that we got him this way; which would likely be a kit bashed figure on that fugly suit body without the awesome accessories he deserves.

I just want new figures! Vampire Drusilla was amazing.
I really like the Tough Love Willow, but we have so many Willow's as it is. I would love a Wish Buffy since I am from Cleveland, I think it would be cool.
I'll buy whatever they put out.

I will say that we did a great job with the Buy-A-Figure days. Although some think they were silly, they proved a point to TST...who wants to get a figure soon. It showed that we -will- sell out a figure if they get one. So there was a point to it! It wasn't a waste of our time and money.
Our ad is going to be printed this month in the Angel comic, so we should be seeing a bit more traffic as well....even though we already have tons.
Things take time, and it hasn't been that long in the big scheme of things. A few months is all.
I have faith in the fans, especially the members of this forum who worked so hard to spread the word about our efforts. I hope that a sweet reward is coming for us, in figure form!

Although some think they were silly, CowboyGuy thanks for clearing up that it's not another *silly sale* (you know 10% off of an old figure that's undoubtedly going to have a damaged package anyway) it's actually news this time and I appreciate knowing that getting my hopes up a little is okay. It appears that you took offense to my calling TST sales silly but i'm not sure how you got that I was calling the BAF days silly. I wasn't even into the figures at that time so I know very little about it. The bottom line is that for exclusives TST will be great, I can pre-order them and hopefully get them sealed in those individual white boxes but for buying older figures and getting mint cards they are just not the company.

jinxieman, I was thinking the same thing! ;D ;D
I really loved the willows (yes we have a ton, but she had such cool outfits!!!) and band candy giles, but Faith would be great too! She did have a great sculpt. I will be disappointed if it is gunn. never really cared for him. But since we are being advertised in Angel ATF and the angel interactive, etc. I have a feeling that it may be a character from Angel......which would be cool, if it only were NOT gunn....I hope its something cool and exciting!

If it's Tought Love Willow...or any Willow really, I will buy a Case of them. If it's Sanctuary Faith I will probably buy a few but I don't think I will get a case of her.
Willow, like you said has so many great outfits, and on top of that those deluxe Willow offer great customizing potential with so many kit bashing possibilities. Heck the Vampire Willow alone could be repainted a hundred ways to give us season 1-3 variants of Willow. I think she wore the oversized sweater, Skirt, tennie shoes and tights in every single episode through season 3!

We should totally have another buy a figure day soon, even if we get an announcement of a new figure. It is a great forum event and a great way to show support for the figures and to thank TST for beiing so incredible too!

I was having the most horrible day ever, and seeing this has cheered me up so much, you have no idea!
I hate to say I was one of the ones who was starting to feel a little negative after no info was coming out from the BAF days - I never thought they were silly and when we were doing them I supported 110%, but after awhile the prospect of no new Buffy merch got to me. But I'm glad something has come of it. I have always enjoyed TST, and as amazing it is we are getting something new, I also enjoy that there is going to be something new to purchase from TST.
I think another BAF day would be awesome. I'm already planning on buying multiples of whatever it is, and if it's a figure(s) that warrant me doing so, for parts or what not, a case even!
