Doll-time again.

Not the kind of dolls I prefer, but I can't deny they're cute.

Willow
Spike OMWF (this seems wrong, lol. A doll with alcohol)
Spike Chosen
Angel
Spike & Buffy
That damn cheerleader again

No clue what amigurumi means, it took me forever to spell it right, but I found two cute amigurumi dolls on deviantart.

Spike
Angel

Darla litho that takes my breath away.

Photo from brokenfrontier.com


I love strolling ebay and finding new collectibles.

This is a litho I have never seen before, of Darla, by Minck Oosterveer Marks.

I don't like the character or art enough to spend 100 dollars on it (shipping would be 47.50USD to me as well) but I really wish I could have bought it for 20USD, which it originally sold for. Check here for more info.

Let them tell a story.

I love posing my Buffy/Angel action figures. I don't own as many Buffy & Angel ones as I want, but I love playing with them, and posing them so they tell a story.

But I clearly have a lot to learn from this Buffy fan.

Spike statue

Sideshow has had their new Spike statue up for pre-order for a while.

Regular and exclusive.

I also wanted to share a couple of links. Video preview and unpainted head sculpts. In the same gallery you can also find unpainted sculpts for Faith & Willow, done by the same artist. Word is the coming Angel statue's head sculpt will be done by the same artist (no more news on Angel, other that he is going to be made).

Comic con goodies!


I have to go to comic con one day. Finding cool promo items on ebay reminds me why that visit is on my bucket list.

This is what I've found to be specific for this year's comic con.

A Buffy button of this Jo Chen Season 9 comic cover(shown in this post). Not a must-buy since those buttons aren't hard or expensive to make on your own if you find the right site. Another button of a Faith & Angel cover can be seen in the link below,

Some sort of promo for the Angel & Faith comic out soon. It has a paper doll, preview of the comic and some info. Not sure if I want to buy it, since I'm pretty sure that preview has already been posted online. Some sketches look familiar as well. I wonder if the text posted can be found online as well.

And something I will definitly not buy (which isn't a promo per see):
comic signed by Joss Whedon for 150USD!!!! Even if this had a certificate, I would enver pay anything close to that sum. If it was graded, I would be tempted but without a certificate from a company or professionally graded by CGC, no way.

I'm also very uncertain about these lollipops. I think I recognize them, and they might be very old items that the seller wants to unload through writing it's from this year's comic con. I will investigate.

Might have missed your e-mails.

I usually delete any e-mail I don't recognize, because they're often spam. This means that I might have deleted anything you guys might have sent. So if I didn't answer, it's not because I'm super busy or a bitch. Now I added a small detail to the right, which is that you have to add The Buffyverse Addict to the subject line when e-mailing me.

Free Spike comic

Anyone not having gotten a code to the Spike comic Magical Mystical Tour With the Beetles yet?

I just got this message:

"Hello,

Sorry for the intrusion in your inbox but I'm not a member at Whedonesque and can't post. I ran across a thread there about the possible difficulty in your obtaining the download code for the Buffy/Spike comic. I'm one of the comic retailers that signed up to get the codes so if you still need one, I'm happy to e-mail it.

If you want to let anyone else in that thread know, I posted a note on my store website for anyone else interested. No strings attached (except an e-mail to send it to which will not be added to our newsletter list unless requested).

Here's a direct link to the post if you want to share it.
