Hi guys does anyone know if there has been mention of official figures from season 8 i.e, Twilight action figure, Faith, Satsu, Amy etc.. Most popular comic books get a series of action figures was just wondering if it will ever happen for Season 8!

I doubt it'll happen. The people who had the rights to Buffy figures dropped the line.

They don’t think the comics constitute enough interest to continue the action figure line. They are clearly wrong as marvel dc and even other dark horse comics have sets but that is what they said over at the Buffy figure boards

That makes me really sad. I was kind of hoping for an official Melaka Fray 6 inch figure.

The figures from the show didn't sell well enough. It'd be stupid to think ones from the comics would sadly.

They sold well for a while and dried up when the show ended. I think they should try again personally I think most comic readers are the kind of people who would buy action figures. With how well the comics are selling I bet they could do better than a lot of other comic action figures because you have fans of the show and the comics buying it

The male figures were decent but the female figures were really horrible! After a while I stooped buying them and I was a hard-core completest! I had every Buffy figure released up to the point that DST took over the sculpts. I had every paint variant and factory error, every website exclusive... But I just couldn't get behind the DST figures. i didn't even buy the entire Buffy wave! The body sculpts were just ludicrously bad. Almost to the point of a joke. So, I would love a few season 8 figures as long as DST didn't make them!

It would have been nice to have Buffy season 8 ones. I'm sure at some point it will happen even if it's only like one set DarkHorse could get the rights to make them. I can't see them selling any less then stuff like Spider man and Batman to be fair. Buffy is a big cult and now it's back in the lime light fans would take more notice.

I loved the MAC figures so much better than the others, I never did pick up any of the DST ones they just seemed so mismatched proportion wise and in comparison. Would be great to see a season 8 series.

I'm kind of new at collecting the figures. What series did DST make? I have a lot of MAC figures that I adore.
