'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' gets new Funko figures

[link]

Cute! Baby-faced Giles is pinging me as Not Right though.

He's got those lines on his forehead, tho.

Could not see that on my phone. Def looks better on the monitor.

And now I'm reminded of the tweet I can never unsee about Funkos being Precious Moments for nerds.

That ... that is not wrong. Wow.

Watch and post for Pangs

Previouslies/open

I liked Riley then- that he is a little peculiar I can't get enough of Spike defanged, but I hate soldier Riley. Not sure a way around that conundrum. Still not the biggest Angel fan

Theme: Always makes me chair dance!

Act 1

Horribly bad suit on Professor Gerhardt, but I think good choice. Why does Buffy wear a cowboy hat? Weird we never see Willow's mother. Does Joyce become a better mom because of Dawn? I love Anya! Imaginary Xander is quite the machine! Xander falling through the hole and getting up is some good comic acting Angel lurking outside is some not so good acting "From beneath you it devours"- Willow says we wonder I love Thanksgiving Buffy! Reminds me of Full Copper Re-pipe Buffy, which is my favorite Buffy. Very relatable to me. The sad music and Spike with a blanket is the funniest thing ever!

• Soldiers are not great- Isn't the white dude on the first season of Arrow?
• Hus is not great

Act 2

• Ears- foreshadowing Willow's magic problem
• Also Willow off her game- for something Blue
• Buffy is a good detective
• I love the filming of Buffy and Giles in the kitchen as well as the interplay between Thanksgiving/normalcy and the Slaying/mystery
• I think the lurking is a dick move from Angel.
• The cut from Angel saying to be on the outside looking in and what he can't have to starving Spike looking in at the vampires eating people is hysterical to me.
• Why is the coffe shop mostly outside? IS that a California thing
• Love that Willow is a jerk about both Cordelia and Anya. She is sort of like a "nice guy" in female form.She has some entitlement issues
• Still like normal Riley
• Also great cut with "home is the place where they have to take you in" to Spike and Harmony.
• Love self actualized Harmony- also comedy gold!
• The chip is a real demonstration of how obstacles are a character's problem but an actor's friend
• I realize I sort of don't like fight scenes and tune out
• There is a great Nationwide commercial with Hamilton's Aaron Burr

Act 3

• Again, the Giles kitchen lighting and framing are amazing
• I like my evil like I like my men...
• What's a ricer?
• This is a first exploration of demons maybe not all being bad- except Amya..
• Poor Chumash.
• Willow and Giles are a good demonstration of political disagreements at Thanksgiving-- "I have to baste!"
• "You didn't bring rolls?
• When I worked at worked at Penney's, we sold all the lamps in Giles house
• Oooh- you don't talk to vengeance demons, you slay them. Horrible. But love the "family fight" at Thanksgiving.
• Spike at the door- also comedy gold!
• He had "trouble performing"
• Hus is a little to comical with the "me-shuppa shoop"

• love complainey Spike
• Adore the Conquering Nations speech!
• Really great framing/lighting with Buffy Giles and Spike. Very different from the rest of the series
• "You can have casinos now!"
• The bicycles/music/rescue are also hilarious- shades of 80's movies and Stranger Things
• Giles on the phone with Angel- also hilarious!
• Does Giles rent or own-- that is a lot of broken windows
• Liked Anya and Willow working together!
• You made a bear!!!! undo it! undo it!
• Gentle Ben is an old reference for Xander, I think, assuming he is about 4 years younger than I am
• aww. Poor angel on the outside. Even though he is not my favorite.
• They still had dinner!!
• Love how they had Spike at the table
• End shot, again hilarious! Very different camera work in this episode.
