Pete Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Well Carl is in, with multiple looks too. https://www.facebook.com/diamondselecttoys/photos/a.170694629641469.38259.170392609671671/715197241857869/?type=1&theater Quote

dr baghead Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) This is probably the first wave of Walking Dead minimates where the whole wave of them interest me.I like Frederick, I like patrol Rick and Michonne, I like Carl, I like Flaming Zombie, for some reason I *love* the coat zombie... I don’t like pretty dress Michonne though, but maybe the fact she probably comes with a second flaming zombie (it looked like from placement the wave is Fred/coat, Rick/Carl, Michonnes/Flame but I could be wrong) so I can kitbash one of the zombies in my parts bin into a second flaming zombie.This will be the first time since wave 2 I pre-order a wave rather than cherry pick sets.

MisterPL Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Glad to finally have Carl but I think my interest in this line is waning. That might have something to do with the fact that I haven't opened a single set... and I'm an opener. They do look good, though. Quote
Pete Posted February 17, 2014 Author Posted February 17, 2014 dr baghead... who's Fredrick? Think you mean Douglas. Quote
TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Douglas was Alexandria's leader. EDIT: Ninja'd! Edited February 17, 2014 by TENIME_art Quote
DaveOMac Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 This series can do no wrong. Praying for a Negan by the end of the year. Quote
TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 If we're getting Carl, I hope we get a Sophia, too. She's still alive, was in Alexandria, now in Hilltop (or was, last I read - I'm a few issues behind). Quote
Zombie Shakespeare Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 This series can do no wrong. Praying for a Negan by the end of the year. If we've already made it to Alexandria, then we're pretty close to Negan and Jesus too. Quote
VulcansFury Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 What part of the storyline has Rick with stump hand and Michonne as cops? I love the burning zombie. Quote
Kostisfire Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I never read a single issue and didn't watch the show past season 1 but i really like civvies so i bought the first 2 waves. The rest weren't my cup of tea but this wave, this wave and 5 look spectacular. Looks like i'll have to hunt certain characters down before these hit though. Quote
dr baghead Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 dr baghead... who's Fredrick? Think you mean Douglas. Whoopsies! Thank you, I know the character (former leader, son liked Andrea... I think they played it like he did too, was sort of played as if he could be shadey but was a cool dude) My brain went straight to "Fredrick" though, I do want to say its at least similar enough to Douglas it's not a sign my brain is dying (two syllable name that's very standard and could be shortened but isn't.... Maybe it was a slip because I was thinking of Fredrick Douglass?) Oh well, I was excited for the figure when I thought he was called Fredrick I'm more excited for him now that I know he's called Douglas Quote
Pete Posted February 17, 2014 Author Posted February 17, 2014 Haha, I like Fredrick better now. VulcansFury: When the group got to Alexandria, they all contributed towards the community. Rick and Michonne did cop duties. Quote
VulcansFury Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Man, I dont even remember Alexandria. Its a bit of a blur for me between leaving the prison, Woodbury and now Negans storyline. Time to dig out my comics again. I do like wave 6 more than 5 at this point. Quote
Pete Posted February 17, 2014 Author Posted February 17, 2014 They're still in Alexandria, just things have changed with the war. Quote
MiniJPD Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 These look great and I'm super pumped for Carl. But, I am frightened that this means they've probably skipped Axel. I REALLY hope they throw him in, but I doubt it at this point. Quote
Colonel America Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 So we have Alexandria sheriff uniformed Rick and Michonne, party dress Michonne variant, Carl (bandaged and standard heads), Douglas, and two cool zombies. Since we're diving into Alexandria characters so quickly, I hope this doesn't mean that Rosita and Father Gabriel are out as possibilities in upcoming waves. I know both of them made it to Alexandria and were alive as far as I've read, so I hope they're still contenders. I may have to get multiple Carls and scrape the shirt design off so I can have templates for Ben and Billy. Quote
Tommyx13 Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Great wave. Carl looks amazing! These are my favorite Michonne variants yet. Hopefully we can get at least a couple of the following: Rosita, Holly, Aaron and Eric in the TRU wave. REALLY hoping they dont skip over Aaron and Eric. Quote
DSTZach Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 FYI, Party Michonne will have cop Michonne's hair. Rosita and Gabriel are in the works. No Axel, sorry. Quote
ApexPredator Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) FYI, Party Michonne will have cop Michonne's hair. Rosita and Gabriel are in the works. No Axel, sorry. Awesome! Any of the Hunters by chance??? Edited February 20, 2014 by ApexPredator Quote
MiniJPD Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Sad about Axel, but I'm still psyched for the rest of these upcoming releases! Thanks for the info Zach. Quote
Colonel America Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 FYI, Party Michonne will have cop Michonne's hair. Rosita and Gabriel are in the works. No Axel, sorry. man, you are always so great about talking to us and giving us info on upcoming product. Thanks for that open communication!No Axel is a shame since he lasted 35 issues in the comics, but maybe he'll be revisited one day if the line lasts long enough. I'll just hush and await the upcoming Carl now! Quote
Zombie Shakespeare Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Seems like at this rate we'll be caught up to the comics before we know it. There's a lot of great current characters to make like Negan and tigers and whatnot, but I'm guessing at that point they'll have to go back and fill in holes like Jim, Axel, Allen, Billy, One-Legged Prison Dale, etc. I'm hoping this line has really long legs.
