Bad Night in Action Figure Land

Goddamn it all to bloody hell. MAC has decided to cancel their Buffy and Angel AF lines, effective immediately. Which means no Buffy Series V or VI and no Angel Series II (here's the news on the Whedonesque boards- I'd prefer to link to Moore's own boards but they seem to have crashed under heavy traffic).
No Wesley. No Tara. No non-bunny Anya. No college Willow. No VampWillow. No fair at all.
Oh, but they'll be releasing the sculpts as (much more expensive) statues, and that's supposed to make up for it. Guys, I don't want statues. I don't collect statues. I collect action figures. This line has been a strong seller, as far as I've ever heard, so I don't get this cancellation.
In other AF news, Galadriel and Prologue Elf have not arrived. Will never arrive. They mock me. They sit in their warehouse somewhere in Nebraska and mock me.
And yes, I know how geeky it is for an educated woman of a certain age to be flattened by the news that she won't be able to buy more little plastic people. But hey, I've never claimed not to be a geek.
