Anyone know if TRU.COM will ship to UK?

Any ideas when 8 will be announced?

I remember last year we thought the SDCC set would be versions of the main characters as zombies, I still think that would be a cool idea for a box set one day.

That would be sweet-would be awesome in those same muted colours as the Omnibus cover zombie versions

My Abraham turned up with his knife holder snapped off,I emailed Diamond straight away and they said they would send a replacement but it never came :/

My ideal "RIP Line" would be:

Billy and Axel (Ben can either have riot gear with helmet and hair pieces,or the prison jumpsuit)

Allen and Andrew

Patricia and Thomas

Spencer and Jessie (Jessie could have spare parts to make her a zombie)

Shiva and Eric

Could have the twins,Billy and Ben as rare variants as well as Jim

That's cool:) the San Diego RIck from a few years back always bugged me how he had a painted bandage and a hole!

Yeah that worked perfect-thanks:) The holly figure looks cool,I wish they did the whole alternate heads and stuff for characters more. Like I said before,Billy would be a very easy one because they would only need the head and hair-re-use riot gear:)

Have they rounded out ricks stump?looks like it doesn't have a hand hole?

Thanks! I'll have to watch it when I get home as it won't show on my mobile:/

Could you link said video? Would like to watch:)

That's a good point. Would be a good way to plug the holes by going back and revisiting some older characters like Axel/Billy/Thomas/Duane (who they could do a zombie/alive head like Holly).

As for going back,they have Chris in the latest wave.he was before Douglas and Jesus!

Oh cool Zach-good job I bet! Yeah,an RIP wave could be great!

Well that's cool to know:)

Do you work for the company then Zach?

Might be worth asking for a Shiva mate then-perhaps even an Axel and Billy/Thomas prison two pack ( they could just do two seperate head scults of Billy and Thomas with the generic prison jumpsuit body or the riot gear for Billy. That wouldn't be hard right?)

What's the chance of getting a Jessie Anderson mate? This series has so much potential for characters

I was just thinking-we only need one more RIck variant for a good long while,and that's for his time jump look. We have too many Ricks!haha

Ideally,we need-Lydia,an updated Maggie,Aaron,Heath,Nicholas,Dante,Ken,Magna and perhaps a Gregory.

When it comes to Lydia,I think she would need 3 hair pieces (one with cowboy hat,zombie hair and the last her normal blonde hair) plus two heads (her normal face and a whisperer zombie masked one)

I don't disagree with some of the points, but that just seems a bit harsh.

I didn't think it was harsh. My harsh is pretty harsh. If Zach takes it as harsh, I apologize. Totally not my intent. I was just being straightforward in the beginning by comparing a line that only lasted three series (despite being attached to Marvel) to one that's going on its eighth. Just trying to figure out what the criteria is for a tiger, if there is one.

Then I went all Little Rascals, "Let's put on a show!" Crowd-funding back in my day wasn't the online panhandling it is today. We actually did stuff to raise money. Assuming the reluctance to offer Shiva has something to do with money. It's usually that or "there's no room in the package/on the die" but if they can make a wolf work with Thor...

Ah I see, sometimes it's hard to read a tone when you don't hear the voice behind it. And like I said, I don't disagree, I think long-term planning would be beneficial to this line, and definitely the Marvel line.

You would think they would plan more long term with this line though

It would sell-its a tricking tiger that kills zombie! There should be a one of pack with Billy and Axel

I can see both sides of the Shiva mate debate-but I ultimately think its bankable and one a fair few people want.

As for Axel-they just died the black and white re paints of some older figures,I think Axel was more well loved than someone like Derek the scavenger tbh. If we hadn't got soooo many Rick variants,we probably could have had him by now,along with Thomas,Otis,Patricia and Billy (Billy would be an easy one,all you need is a head sculpt and re use the riot gear!)

No Aaron and Heath either!!!??

I would not expect to see a new Dale, Shiva, Axel or Otis.

But Rosita and Gabriel are coming.

Welcome, Carl!

Aww really,no Axel or Shiva at least? That sucks:(

Here's a recent post from Zach in this thread...

and also im just sayin that alot of people would be happy and it would fill out the ranks of characters if dst made 2 exclusive boxets

road to dc set 1

camo jacket Abraham

Cannibalized dale

better mullet and jacket Eugene

Father Gabriel

road to dc set 2

Rosita

Aaron

Eric

Sophia

A few of those are in Series 8!

See,I am down for that.Maybe have Dale come with peg leg and a cannibal leg set? I always wanted an Axel and Otis mini mate if I am honest:(

Should hear something soon regarding series 8.

There's been a few hints from Zach in this thread regarding the line up, pretty sure he hasn't discounted either making an appearance there.

Oh yeah... Welcome!

Thanks! Been meaning to sign up for a while:)

Ooh,really? What other characters are rumoured? Personally,I think we need a better Eugene and Maggie-too many Ricks! Also,Sophia and Lydia could do with figures (along with Shiva!)

Hey!New user here and Walking Dead mate collector since wave one:)

Just got the TRU exclusive set of Ebay,cost me £70 (shipping to the uK on Ebay seems to have gone waaay up)

Just need to get the regular series 7 set now which I will probably get from Lukes Toy Store. I have a pretty much full collection of the entire series.

Just wondering,what ever happened to the Rosita and Gabriel mates? Do we know what series 8 will have?
