Wow, I like the Barnabas and Angelique of "clayguy"--but, is it just me, or does Quentin look more like Leonard Nimoy's Spock?! ;)

I have both the Barnabas and Quentin dolls, and obtained them at this past fest for relatively cheap. If they were the prices that the Desperate Housewives (DS for short--coincidence? I THINK NOT!! lol) I would probably put them on my x-mas list or my b-day list in hopes that someone would buy them for me, because I'd be hard pressed to shell out that much money for one doll. I might buy one, maybe Barnabas, but after that, I'd have to recieve all the others as gifts.

Speaking of future dolls, KLS said at the fest during one of her many times on stage that she just heard that she was "going to be made into a doll". So, given that, I'd be willing to bet that Majestic will be coming out with a Josette doll sometime in the future. I'll be looking forward to it, because I think they've done a wonderful job with the action figures they've released so far.

Come on Julia doll!  ;)  I can just see her now, w/her white lab coat, medallion, purse slung on her arm, medical bag FILLED w/sedatives and 3 heads--helmut hair, short hair, long hair from later in the series.   8)  She'll look great up there on the shelf w/her man.   ;D

I'd like to see one of Julia's interchangable heads have her signature GASP look with her hands over her mouth. *wink*

That would work, like maybe from the scene where [spoiler]she's in the mausoleum and the blood is running down the walls and she says, "It's BL........OO...............D!!"[/spoiler]  ;)  Then you could pose her hands in front of her face.   ;D

i'm with dom in that if there was a doll of liz done up a' la episode one(the gown.the jewels.the towering updo)i'd be tempted to go for it.

i like buzz's idea of julia and all of her medical accoutrements.to be worn over lime-green tweed of course.needless to say vicki would have to come with a complete wardrobe of sleeveless dresses.i'd like maggie in her waitresses uniform with perhaps a change into a nightgown.for a character like laura or angelique who existed in various centuries she could come with an historical costume as well as a "present day" ensemble.

i hope "madame alexander" offers a layaway plan. :P

Maggie dolls could also come with an ash blonde wig.  Do ME dolls talk?  Cuz Maggie could call everyone a "j-e-r-k."

I really hope that's true. Not only because Josette's one of the characters I most want, but also because that simply means the line is continuing and is not dead, which, if it were, would make me very sad. And I agree. I think they did a fantastic job on the first figures. My only -very minor- complaint is that I wish they came with accessories.

And she could also have a head w/the blond wig.  They could do what they did w/Barnabas for Laura and Angelique, one in modern clothes, one in period costume.

Do ME dolls talk?  Cuz Maggie could call everyone a "j-e-r-k."

That would be TOO funny!  ;)

Yes, one in present day and one in period costuming would be great! I've not heard of Majestic--do they specialize in TV dolls/action figures, or are they a general doll making company?

Majestic is a small company that make 12 inch figures of television/movie characters. They've done The Munsters, the original Battlestar Galactica, Dark Shadows, and the new Battlestar Galactica. They did a Zuni Warrior from the Trilogy of Terror, too.

I've noticed that their website is down. Wonder if they're going to update it.

I don't think they'll make two different versions of any of the other characters. It makes sense to do that with Barnabas because he's the main character, but I don't seem them doing that with smaller characters. I think an extra head is possible, though, like they did with the Quentin figure.

The Barnabas doll has 3 heads too, regular, vampire and old man.

I meant that they only released one Quentin figure - for example, they didn't release a present day Quentin with the 1897 Quentin. We only got 1897 Quentin. I think that's how every other character will be done as well, with Barnabas as the exception.
