Looking at this photo it looks very similar to the shirt on the figure with the short sleeves.

The shirt is definitely good enough for me, I was referring to the complaints just recently by others about the color and cut of the sleeves. And I can see the likeness in the sculpt, it's just the exaggerations that are off-putting. In the end I'm not terribly worried at this point, since the characters I'm interested in collecting from this franchise aren't the ones in the latest photos.

I agree with you about the sculpt his head looks stretched and not very realistic

Pets continue to look as good as usual. Nice to see a scale shot of Tyrian finally.

Merle looks the same as the SDCC proto if I'm not mistaken. His head is so tiny! That seems to be a problem ThreeZero across the board though. Tyrian's head is smaller than it should be and Robocop seems to be a bit pin headed as well.

My biggest concern with Merle is the color of his button up shirt. His two main looks were a tan/khaki color when we first saw him in Season 3 and black later on. They keep using that grey and its just no right. Its like the mid point between the tan and black colors Go one way or the other!

I agree a little work here and there on the sculpt & outfit would bring him colser to speed. ThreeZero picked up two serious licences with TWD & GOT. The price point sounds great but from what we've been shown so far, the products seem to be in the DID/Sideshow realm and not quite up to speed with the A leaguers (HT, EB, BW). The pets look good and they are no doubt a nice deal for the price point (I PO'd them from a local shop), but they are easily a few strides behind HT. Again, the SRP sounds great but I would rather see ThreeZero charge a little bit more (if that's what it takes) and deliver a product that is equivalent (likeness & realism of the sculpt; quality of the outfit, accessories and body) to the other companies who are at the top of the industry.

From that little sneak peek I will say that Daryl looks way better than Meryl but it's hard to really know until we see the fully built fig.

I suppose it is fairly accurate to that Woodbury look, but I think most people think of these two looks rather than his 'at ease' Woodbury look:

The shirt is a bit more tan than the solid grey they are using on the figure. It looks like a really faded black shirt to me actually. I'm fine with the lighter color, but just make it a bit more tan.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

I'm pretty confident that the shirt shown on the figure is not in fact grey. As far as which shirt was worn more often, I couldn't tell you one way or the other - I don't find that very important at all in this case and the design they've chosen fits well with the theme.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

Personally, I'd prefer the black shirt look for Merle, but not because of an association with any particular scene. I just like the color contrast. Either look would be accurate for the character, but I would just prefer something with a little more visual interest. Too many browns and tans together might end up looking a little bland on the shelf.

The pant legs are too baggy.

The head sculpt is not terrible, just not great. If the production piece is not improved, I'd probably have that head customized with a zombie effect and pick up Erick Sosa's fantastic Merle head. Of course once I got that painted it would be the cost of the figure.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

I saw that Merle and immediately thought of Sinestro from Challenge of the Superfriends.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

I'll probably just stick with my Sosa custom of Merle and pass on him from 3Zero...and get everything else. Just not feeling this one from em. The pets looks awesome though.

Did everyone watch this week's episode that shed some light in a dream sequence on the origin of the first pets?

Ya, I enjoyed it. It would make owning these guys a little more interesting.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

can somebody please clear this up for me: over on bigbadtoystore (and most other places) the pets are for sale for around $120 each....but on the shopthewalkingdead website they have them BOTH listed together for $130 with a 10% off coupon. is that a typo or are they really for sale that cheap???? https://www.shopthewalkingdead.com/michonne-s-pet-zombies-figures-pre-order/details/29318846

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

The language on that site makes it seem like you get both figures. Adding to cart also clearly shows TWO figures in the product image and no options to select only one. I'd say they have to stand by what they're advertising come time to ship.

I would also be willing to take the risk for both of them at that price.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

That's a great price for both of them. I'd be willing to take the plunge (if that is indeed the right price) and later get Michonne to complete the set. Sounds too good to be true though...

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

^^^ I might do it, I have been wanting them and that's a great deal. I hope its true.....maybe I can find a customer service number and call in.

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

Might as well grab them for that price, not sure if it's the same 2 pack like the exclusive threezero was offering so I wonder if they'll be seperate? I'm gonna do it I think, they should honor it because I remember years ago getting the Lego 10179 millennium falcon for like $140 because there was a glitch on the pricing, was suppose to be 10% off but was 90% off and lego honoured the 2 that I ordered and now worth $3000 a piece

Re: ThreeZero Toys: 1:6 AMC's The Walking Dead

It's from the official AMC site, so there's that for reassurance.
