wait quick question were the rest of the figures for tru6 other than rosita gabriel and ben franklin zombie

in my opinion avoid the conpendiums those things are the biggest pain in the ass to transport read or carry or read, nver a seen the omnibus but if theyre much smaller than the conpendiuems id go with those given the choice, but if i were you id just buy the individual volumes, you can get them for about 8 bucks shipped on amazon so it will prob be more expensive but theyre easier to read and the collection just looks mor organized

Even before the character appeared (more or less) on TV, Chris was a PRETTY major character. If HE's obscure, in spite of his involvement in the death of a major survivor and the darkening of four others, then a lot of other characters just dropped below the "obscure" line. He wasn't in that many issues, and his appearance was pretty nondescript, but he made a BIG impression, and was part of at least two or three big OMG moments (tainted meat, messing with the wrong people, the whole dismemberment thing). Derek had even less screen time, so I guess you could call him obscure, but they teased his arrival pretty hard, and he got a pretty big spotlight moment. Also, he's the one-per-case. I get why people want Heath, but I also don't know that Heath has made as big an impression in all his appearances as Derek did in, like, two issues. I feel like most of Heath's stories were relationship-related, when he wasn't loitering on rooftops. But then, I'm still a little behind, so maybe I missed his big moment. Rosita and Gabriel will probably not be variants, whenever they show up, but they will not be in TRU 7. Hopefully whoever is in the TRU assortment will be easily acquirable in the store or online. Hopefully, after the recent reset, more stores will come back on board for TWD, Aliens and/or Marvel Minimates. well i kinda mispoke when saying obscure i more meant the choice was slightly odd considering the theme of the rest of the wave but im happy to be getting him, but i still want tainted meat dale ( and also i know its completely impossible but how awesome would it be if chis came with dales leg over a fire) and that news about tru wave makes me so happy as im still trying to swallow spending 25 dollars for abraham

same but im gonna catchup and have volume 17 coming in tomorrow

ynow i like 5 figures in this series, chris is a little obscure but with the recent tv arc and the popularity of gareth i can understand, but honestly why derek, i mean i get hes the variant and theyre not gonna put someone like ezekiel a variant but why not a savior like connor or carson or even heath or maybe one of the canned figures form tru6, someone else who was in more than 3 issues and has an interesting design i mean derek is a bald guy wearing earthtones, but back to the good parts the negan and jesus are perfect in every way, the rick is okay but im glad a character with a white t shirt is in specialty and not tru, i need those all the time and dwight is pretty good but i might give him a different jacket when he comes out and the zombie holly with the normal head is genius, but im really excited for the tru wave but at the same time i really hope they dont put someone like ezikiel or heath at tru cause im like 85% sure my tru stopped stocking mates

Of the last 3, yes. I feel we'll be getting a Negan & Jesus soon, but the other ones' times have passed. allen head: weapon x wolverine hair: origons deadpool body: origons wolverine vest: tool billy head: emil blonksky hair: yin yong ( though if i had it i would def. use ryus hair) body: prison rick arms: prison hershel thomas head: best of bruce banner hair: nerd zombie body: prison hershel arms: dexter

so i decided to make some misc survivors from l to r: Negan, Jesus, Allen, Billy, and Thomas if anyone wants the recipes for any of them just ask

While I can certainly appreciate man's love of animals, that's a weird comparison. We can't make vehicles for the Marvel line contractually, but I doubt there is a no-tigers clause for Warlking Dead. I also know that when we got the license, we had no idea the opportunity to make a tiger would arise, so we probably estimated what tooling costs would be for each wave when we negotiated the guarantee, royalties, etc. Next to the licensing, the tooling is the biggest cost we pay, so we need to know that going in. With MvC3, I think we assumed that half of the figures would be little or no tooling, and the others would mostly require new parts. So making a flaming dog-deity fit in with our cost analysis. Walking Dead gets its share of new zombie parts, but it's also mostly civilians wearing clothes. I think sales have leveled off with the increasing amount of TWD merch out there, so I can't imagine we're looking to increase the tooling significantly, but it may just be that the line planners wanted to focus on comic characters that would resonate with people who watched the TV show. Do I think a tiger would be awesome, a must-have Minimate in the line? Sure. Do I think it'd be tricky to make look good on a Minimate body? Yes, but I'm sure we could do it, given time. Would it look awkward in packaging? ..Probably. Okami came out great, as did the Terror Dogs, but each had their packaging problems. Also, those two were characters seen by millions of players/viewers. TWD issues top out at somethign like 400K, and that's when LootCrate buys some. Not small change, especially when we're selling to comic shops, but a casual TWD fan might wonder WTF. Like I said, I think a zombie vs. tiger set would be great, and it might remind zombie fans of the zombie fighting the shark in Zombie 2, I just think there are many factors that go into planning a Minimates assortment, and tigers are a bit of a game-changer to the current TWD mathematical formula. But depending on how long Shiva survives, I don't see why we couldn't make him in the future. SPOILERS hate to break it to ya but shiva only lasted about ten issues, and its a she

I agree but think that the funko one while smaller fits the style much better

So ive decided to make some qc tv show twd figures https://www.flickr.com/photos/129094801@N04/15687383525/ First off rick and daryl Rick hair: Micheal Knight Face+Torso: Survivor Rick Jacket+Arms: Carol Some random black legs and brown feet Riot Gear Ricks Holster Daryl Face: Chris Redfield Hair: Rick Torso: Wolverine Jacket: Micheal Knight Legs: Sdcc Rick Crossbow: Walking dead building sets Hershel Head: Dale Hair: Hershel Body: JJJ with sharpie Legs: Zombie Roamer His Crutches are shotguns wedged inbetween the joint and arm Gareth Hair: Emo Peter Head: SDCC Rick Torso and arms: Mob Thug Legs and torso: Rick Meat: Nerd Zombie Bob Head: Rhodey Torso and arms: Dexter Vest and legs: Mr. Church Governor Hair: Mr. Fantastic Head: Generic MAX face with sharpie Jacket and arms and legs: Jean Vilain Torso: Lee Christmas

Well if its sharing characters I'm changing my predictions AOW Rick/Zombie Negan/Zombie AOW Andrea/Zombie Heath/Zombie

well if the pics go through this time sorry about it being the worst picture ever but i have no proper lighting by my walking dead stuff so i have to rely on my phones flash. But any i updated the design with riot gear ricks torso and made him a little bible out of a flat lego tile with a cross sharpied on

hm well i cant see them either but its bascilly a father gabriel i threw together with tyreese's hair the 2nd expendables bruce wills's jacket miles dyson's face some random search and rescue guy form max's black sweater and agent zero's legs

whelp looks like qc father gabriel is coming to the rescue+how the building sets crossbow looks in a mates hand My Predictions/Hopes for series 7 AOW Rick/ Negan Jesus/ Dwight Ezekiel ( With snarf style Shiva)/ Savior with interchangable heads and vests and hairs or multiple unique looks Aaron/Savior tru Holly/ Zombie Nicholas/ Zombie AOW Andrea/ Zombie Heath/ Zombie and unfortunately i dont see a way gabriel and rosita could fit in this wave or any other future waves as these characters have played such a minor role in the story after their introdution ( though id love a con exclusve "Road To DC" set With a rereleased Abraham(since the old one was so good but even harder to find) an updated eugene ( cause the last one sucked) And rosita and gabriel

has anyone else noticed that the walking dead building sets daryl crossbow is perfect scale for minimates and with a little tape or something around the handle itll fit perfectley into a mates hands

yknow i finally saw the movie and loved it and i have to say that after seeing it im perfectly fine with the lineup except the fact that 1. storm got a slot over hank/beast 2. everyone is clamoring over not getting characters with less than ten minutes of screen time rather than not getting one of the most important characters who had some of the most screentime and could easily have been given alternate parts to turn him from beast and hank, quite frankly i would have MUCH rather had boliver and hank over storm and logan

yeah but macfarlane also has the licence for the comics and many other companies have the rights to the tv show

i really wish that this liscenece covered show figures too cause lets face it the show is signifficantly more popular especially to casual collectors and even in macfarlanes case the show figures seem to sell much better than the comic ones

hory shet http://news.toyark.com/2014/10/13/mcfarlane-announces-walking-dead-clementine-figure-141588

luke for the decal pack you should make forge with an calm face and bandana

Good God all that buck rogers character with the vest needs is titanium mans head and you got the perfect qc kraven

whoa hogan have some decency there are children watching!

man now i want to put a cookie monster head on a loki body for.......reasons

i personally have pretty much most of the characters from the tv series but not much from the comics but now im trying to find a decently priced negan, but then ill want rick and dwight to go along with negan then andrea to go with rick and ezikiel and jesus to.......... and the slippery slope of collecting begins again well to be fair they're more of website exclusive than con exclusive it even says so right on the package i mean ezekiel is still available and negan was there for almost a year and jesus will be available aswell after the con

So i figured this line was pretty underapreciated by collectors and is only rarely discussed in intermission periods in the official thread so i decided it deserved its own thread after the new jesus figure announced yesterday
