McFarlane Toys: The Walking Dead

[fanger54]

mcfarlene seems to be cruising along for some time now, they put out good products but they are being detached from the fans, first by taking down the forum on the site( great forum) and with time they seem to be keeping things even closer to the chest and less public announcements

 

[Carol's #1 Fan]

Yeah... they announced beforehand this is all they were going to show. They didn't even have the 10inch Daryl on display.

Also, it's at the Diamond Distributors Booth. McFarlane didn't have a booth this year.

I expect we'll see previews for either TV Show series 5 or even Comic series 4 later this year on Spawn.com.

oh i must have missed that, thanks. IMO SDCC this year was just not as good as last year, but it was still great. most of the stuff i was looking forward to never showed up.

All look good except for the Gov. His face looks... off.

 

[Sachiel]

Looks pretty spot-on.

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Those figures look good. Hopefully 2-pack Daryl will have better paint than the first one. Still sucks it's the same figure from series 1 rather than a new one though. The joints on him look bad.

 

[Bender]

I have the Dixon brothers on pre-order to get a new Daryl but I´ll have to cancel it.
"Using 3-D scans of the actors themselves, these well-detailed figures present excellent likenesses of the characters from the show" description said. What?. Like Darth_Fatso said, that´s the same terrible Daryl? from series 1 with ugly joints and eyes likeness off.

 

[Dyson]

Man, each series of these seem to get better and better. This series looks great. I love the riot guard zombies. I hope that the 10" Daryl gets downsized for the main line as well.

im digging the re released daryl since hes going for insane prices on ebay, not the best but ill take it,and i kinda hope for a season 3 or 4 rick figure

 

[ChrisM]

Looks pretty spot-on.

I ment more that they gave him a dopey expression.

 

[CelticPredator]

They actually made an Andrea figure?

 

[nick_clark]

I'll buy Andrea to customize the figure to make her looks like comic Andrea with the face of the great Laurie Holden. I hate the show, but love the actress. What a great figure, and comes with her sniper (^0^) such an iconic thing to her (and inexistent in the crappy show)

The only thing that bugs me is the size of the line. Any hope of a 6/7 inches line in the future?

 

[Deckard]

Theres nothing at all wrong with the Governor, he looks spot on.

That Daryl on the other hand, I dunno who thats supposed to be. Looks like Larry the Cable Guy.

she used the sniper in the series and there wont be any 6 inch figures from mcfarlene since they are great in this scale

When she almost kill Daryl doesn't count to me, in the comic the sniper is to Andrea what the katana is to Michonne in both "universes". The sniper in the show is only an ordinary weapon more to her without an iconic meaning.

About the scale, is way small to me.

you nick pick too much, at least she used it , and also its walking dead, who cares about the size of the figures, tv show normally never gets this much merchandises and figures, hell smallville was on tv for 10 years and never got this much merch, so just take what you can because its a rare thing , and its even more rare for horror series. usually merch for this type of series is released years later as a trowback thing

I know I know! But I'm an obsessed guy with the height of my figures, and these characters look like hobbits next to my other figures, I know it's not the end of the world, just nearly

Any word on when that 10 inch Daryl is due out? BBTS says Nov 2013 but they are not known for keeping up to date dates. Want to get as a Xmas present for the Fiance who is in love with him LOL .
