    We Review "Tooned Up" Buffy!


    Sideshow Collectibles was kind enough to send over this gem of a statue.

    It is the Electric Tiki Design's "Tooned Up" Buffy.

    Let's have a look at the stats:

    - "Once More With Feeling" Version.
    - Comes with 2 sets of hands for unique display.
    - Limited to 1000 pieces.
    - Approximately 12'' tall - 1/8 scale.
    - Officially licensed.
    - Fully painted, ready to display.
    - Based on original "toon" designs by Tracy Mark Lee.

    It really is a gorgeous statue. It's a glimpse of what might have been if the long gestating but never realized Buffy cartoon came to be. The statue looks perfect. It's a flawless sculpt and it gives me little stabs of joy whenever I look at it. (Can you tell I'm a major buffy fan?)

    Out of the box, it's pretty much ready to go. You just attach Buffy to the base and choose the hands you want. You have the choice of an empty hand, stakes, or pool stick. Currently, my statue looks just like the picture on the left.

    Each statue is hand cast in high quality polystone and hand painted and you can see the care in the statue. It's vibrant and pretty much looks like it jumped off an animation cell. The figures are individually numbered as well.


    Any fan of Buffy will flip to get their hands on this statue. It's reasonably priced at around $90.
    This combined with the "Tooned Up" Willow coming out this October, will make for a great display.

    You really can't go wrong with this. It is a great statue. Detailed, vibrant, cute...I can list a lot of adjectives to describe how completely cool this thing is. Just buy it for yourself.

    I can only hope we'll get more of these "Tooned Up" scoobies. I could go for a Tara, Anya, Xander, Spike, Angel, Fred, Cordelia...I would be satisified with all of the Buffy/Angel characters to be honest.

    Don't get me started on Firefly...
