My new toy! Or is that "action figure"? No, I'm pretty sure not.
Here are photos of the "Liam/Angelus" doll, for all who contributed. And curious onlookers. Thanks again!
Number 1: The larch. I mean, the dramatic portrait.

"Oh yeah, I'm a hunk. But why am I dressed like Liberace?"
It's a pretty good likeness. But dude: ceremonial skull! It looks a little menacing in this, but in person something about the eyes gives it a "Why me?" expression. The ceremonial pillow is the top of the skull, and it's got a little dent in it that you put the Orb of Thessulah into. Everything is so ceremonial.
I meant to take one where you can see the little bite-marks on his neck. I thought that was a nice touch.
Number 2:

"Ooo, ceremonial candles! Crap, my socks are falling down. Stupid socks."
I love that he comes with piles of bones. For no reason at all. It's the lamest prop ever. Totally balanced out by the skull, though. Tthe candles, if I understand correctly, were a special extra that were only included with the first 750 ordered. But there were only 750 made? So... huh? It's almost like the "licensed merchandise" business is a giant scam! But that's obviously crazy talk.
Number 3:

"Oops! Oh no, my soul!"
Number 4:

"I might be evil, but I still don't deserve this kind of treatment."
And, my favorite, number 5:

"Woo!"
At some point I'll have to set up some kind of crazy diorama with him fighting a velociraptor, Or Batman. Or both! Oo, and I have horsies for him to ride (because I'm planning to try to eBay them). Hours of entertainment!
