I decided today to take all my figures off their shelves and line them up on my living room floor (which is what I used to do when I wanted to see them all at once - a throwback to my childhood days and Star Wars figures - the fanboy action figure "Line Up"!). Anyway, here's my entire Buffy and Angel Figure collection, including a few of my customs (sorry for the duplicated middle row - had to split it between 2 photos). :-) :-) :-). Enjoy! :-)

Oh, these are such fun pictures! I love to see them all lined up like that, with the regular figures mixed in with all of your customs.
I don't think that I had ever noticed that your BvD custom had a little torch. That looks so cool. Is that from the Charmed playset, or is from something else?
Most of my figures are still put away. I put them away in anticipation of my move. I just don't know where to put them now that I have less shelf and wall space at our new place.

Hey Girl Power!!! I made the little Torch and scarf out of Sculpey (the scarf is bake n bed, so its flexible). I made it based on a production still o her walking down the steps to Drac's castle holding the torch (her scarf was off by then, but I was so psyched when I first discovered flexible sculpey that I was looking for anything to make with it). :-) Oh, and the little pink fuzzy thing between End of Days Buffy and Faith isn't some bizarre custom accessory - it's a toy mouse - one of my kitties was playing while I was getting ready to take the pic and didn't notice until after the first few pics. :-)
I love action figures!!! :-)

That is so awesome Newton! I use to do that with my He-Man figures. This is why I have them set up on shelves in our upstairs landing. They are all lined up and easy to see. I too love action figures. On a side note, my Wife and In-laws went in together and bought me a craft cart with brushes and superglue and a hot pad for boiling water for my cutom making for Christsmas. I can't wait to orginize it and start makeing customs!

Jinxie that's awesome!!!! I need to get something like that myself - all my custom stuff is just sort of haphaxardly spread out in a few boxes, shelves and drawers here and there - whenever I get in the customizing mood my entire apartment looks like Sunnydale *after* the cave in in Chosen! LOL! Mine are usually on a set of shelves as well, but sometimes I like to get them all down and "do the lineup" without bases. I think I like to do it because on the original Star Wars cards, the back of them had a line up of all the currently available figures. I don't think most cardbacks feature more than just the current wave maybe these days, so it's a throwback for me (did He Man show all the figures on their cards or just a few of the current ones?). Maybe it's a marketing thing that got me on some subliminal level <grin>. :-)
You'll have to post pics of your figures too and your nifty customizer's cart once you get it all setup! I'm jealous! :-)

You should be jealous, it's fantastic! The He-Man figures did have them lined up on the back and so did the Ninja Turtles. After they release a lot of figures they would just have the newest ones on the back, but they still had a lot of them, older ones, new ones, and ones to look for on there. I really liked that. I had all my custom stuff in our tiny kitchen so it's exciting to move my cart out into the livingroom where I can be closer to my Wife when I am working. It's also nice to have the Kitchen clean...now I have to get all the paint off the cutting board I'll take new pictures and post them soon. Maybe tomorrow when I take pictures of the custom Wicked figures I made for my wife.

I've thought about laying all my figures out and taking a picture, but here lately I've been too busy(or lazy) to do so. That's an impressive collection you've got there newtondkc.

omg I used to love doing the fan-boy line-up with my figures when I had a collection...instead I just did it with my customs the other day lol.
So fun to see them all next to each other.
And it really hit me when looking at all your figures of how buffy is such a cult show now with all this merchandise and how many iconic moments and outfits there have been!

The customs look great and I love the gold dress Cordelia. It is a shame that DST didn't go ahead and do this, she would have sold wonderfully.
