I don't like the episode at all, the whole killing children thing really bugs, but damn! That's a great likeness!

Gotta agree with you there, Willowy. Not over the moon about the ep, but damn. It's nightmare fuel, in 12" form.

I was actually sick with the flu when I first watched it, and I have to say that Der Kinderstod really really scared me, I even had nightmares...Ok i am a whimp what can I say.

Didn't really bother me that children were dying. Then again, I was only what.. 11 or 12, when I first saw it. It was one of the scariest episodes for me (especially that scene where Buffy wakes up and he just glides by her hospital bedroom door) and full of great moments.

Speaking of Buffy merchandise likenesses, are there any updated pics of Puppet Angel ? I won't pre-order until I see that the design's been improved.

I collect the Sideshow dolls but I was hoping for a Giles or a Xander this time before another villain - and I would've preferred a main villain of the season and not just a one episode guy. The Mayor, Caleb or even Adam would've been nicer. But, I'll be buying this regardless.

When Buffy first started I wasn't a fan, I'd skipped onto the channel once or twice over the first season.
Then came the fateful night I was skipping channels, and decided would watch a few mins of Buffy.
Of course I happened to just hit THIS episode, and on THAT bit where he walks past her door!
The scariest part of Buffy ever by far!!!!
I was so freaked it took me years to finally get around to watching a whole episode, sadly.
Now, of course, I love and miss it!

He was scary when he walked past the door, and he was a scary character, the way he looked and the idea of how he killed.

Kris - every time I see Puppet Angel advertised they show the Abe Lincoln picture, where puppet Angel looks more like Abe than Angel. I haven't ordered it either just because I look at the picture and see no resemblance at all, I can't bring myself to order something that looks that hideous.
