I just pre-ordered this statue:

It's from DST, so I hope the production piece looks as good as this pic.

I agree, this proto looks good. I don't collect non-articulated figures ... usually ... so I am not going to pick this up. Let us know what you think when it arrives.

That is very nice looking.

I wouldn't buy it either...though overall, that is a much nicer version of Buffy in that outfit than was released years ago, possibly by MAC. Damn shame it's not an action figure.

DST aren't too bad with SMG statues/figures. MAC didin't seem able to capture her very well, most the facial expressions chosen were God aweful, which wouldn't have helped. But figures like the Deluxe Buffy's & some of the Buffy/Dawn wave were really well done.

Sideshow have had troubles with Gellar as well. The one in the prom dress for example! blink.gif
Though the version in the long red coat seemed rather good.
Premium Format figures of her vary as well. Though generally seem to have a nice resemblance.

I've got that Sideshow 12", and it is a good SMG likeness.
