DIAMOND SELECT, CINEQUEST.COM TO RELEASE EXCLUSIVE ANGEL, BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER FIGURES

Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles, LLC and CineQuest.com are teaming up to produce exclusive action figures based on characters from the hit TV shows, Angel and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

“We’ve received countless requests over the years from our customers asking for figures based on their favorite Angel and Buffy episodes,” said CineQuest.com President Mark Del Vecchio. “We’ve been tracking what characters they want from which shows, and with these exclusive products that Diamond Select Toys is creating for us, their wish is our command. We’ve put a lot of time and effort into these beautifully produced collectibles, and we’re sure that collectors will love the results.”

Sculpted by master artisan Clayburn Moore, produced by Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles, and offered exclusively by CineQuest.com, the figures include:

* Buffy the Vampire Slayer: “Hell’s Bells” Anya CineQuest.com Exclusive Action Figure - This stunning action figure captures the lovely Anya (portrayed by actress Emma Caulfield) in her wedding dress, as she appeared in the Season 6 episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, “Hell’s Bells.” This figure comes with a blue mask, flowers, and a deco floor base.

* Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow and Tara “Together Forever” CineQuest.com Exclusive Action Figure Two-Pack - This two-pack contains variant figures based on the Sunnydale Gang’s resident Wiccans - and Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s fan-favorite couple - Willow Rosenberg (played by Alyson Hannigan) and Tara Maclay (portrayed by Amber Benson), painted as they appeared in the fan-favorite Season 4 episode, “Hush,” the episode where they begin to show feelings towards each other. The two-pack also comes with a purse, love candle, mortar and pestle, wooden floor base, and a PVC accessory based on the couple’s beloved black cat, Miss Kitty Fantastico.

Standing approximately 6”-tall, these figures - which come with multiple points of articulation - are targeted for a late summer release.

In addition to creating these much-anticipated figures for CineQuest.com, Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles will also continue its ongoing relationship with the company by producing an exclusive Angel Spike figure in the coming months.

“These high-quality figures are perfect for Angel and Buffy fans, as well as toy collectors everywhere,” said Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles Marketing and Sales Coordinator Scott Braden. “There’s no doubt that these figures are certain to become can’t-miss additions to fan’s collections.”
