Sideshow Toys, the company that produced the one and only 12" Buffy doll a few years ago, has announced they will be continuing the Buffy doll line in 2004.

Coming first, in early 2004, are Buffy and Angel. Buffy will have the clothing from "Graduation Day" (sort of) and will come with stakes, a battle axe, and the "Hunga Munga" from "Anne". Angel/Angelus will have the clothes and sword from "Becoming".

And in the second quarter, Sideshow will be releasing Spike and Faith dolls, but there is no information yet as to what episodes they will represent.

Below is the link to Sideshow Toys, but please note:
The dolls pictured on the site are PROTOTYPES -- the actual clothes and head sculpts could change prior to production.

Wow the Angel one is an amazing likeness. The Buffy one looks a little stoned but I love the jacket

I hope they do red shirt Spike and Faith with the red tank top from EOD's, that would be awesome

yeah a Faith one would be so cool! Thanks for that!

They look cool. I better go start saving.

Those look so cool. Love the Angelus one.
Can't wait to see what the Spike and Faith ones will look like.

i am so getting them !!!!!!!!!!!! yay!

they look really good, but buffy's eyes look strange

all I can think of is what sarah had said about Buffy fans and doll some time back and that was that she really didn't see Buffy fans as doll people except may to undress them

Ohh, this is awesome news! I loved the first line of these figures! Thanks Watcher!!

Thanks for the info. Those look cool. I can't wait to see what the Spike and Faith ones look like.

Oh they look so cool!

I WANT EM!

Thanks for posting pic!

thanks for the info I am big 12" doll collector I have this big collection of 12" dolls of Star Wars from all the eps

Here's some new info about the release of these dolls:

-- The first release, Buffy & Angel, is scheduled for Feb/March
-- Retail price from the manufacturer is $40 (U.S.) each
-- They are available for pre-order now from Sideshow and other on-line dealers

And here is some info that was posted on another board by a Sales Rep from Sideshow regarding the Buffy doll body:

wow, the Angel one is really good. looks really like DB, the buffy one is good too

OMG 12" Faiiiith dolls! Happy happy day.

I don`t like that Buffy one as much as the other one which I have but I LOVE that Angel one Can`t wait for these.

Wow, those are great!! Really like the DB one, amazing likeness. And, the Buffy one is quite good too! Me want

So what's the projected release date for the BOT ?

the angel one looks a little more real but they are both cool

They look pretty good. I wasn't a fan of the first batch though... the one with Buffy and the gentlemen from Hush. I REALLY didn't like those.

I think I like this Buffy a little better than the first one -- she has less eye makeup and a more of a neutral expression. The first one always looked sad to me. Would like to see the back of her head to see what they've done with her hair, though. The clothes definitely look better on this one.

I thought they did a good job capturing DB's likeness, but I'm not crazy about the forehead scowl. I would have preferred more Angel and less Angelus -- but it's all good.

Will be interesting to see what Faith and Spike look like.

Shame the Spike ones won`t be out before 5th November


..I have nothing to burn on my bonfire this year.
